Hats off to them, they are beating some good teams but they are hard to gauge because like the Ravens they have had major lady luck on their side. 

That’s often a sign that a team just might go all the way.  You have to have luck on your side to win a super bowl. It might just be their year. We will see.

You could leave out the last sentence. It is one thing to say it once or twice but saying it many times is too much.

Well so far he hasn’t done the things to get us to the next level. Will things change this offseason since we have our QB? Let’s hope so. Because we don’t have a first round pick. He is going to have to spend in FA or it will be the same thing next season.

I think if Henry was healthy I would agree but I doubt they win it all without him. I can see them making the AFC Title Game though.

I think they have enough to at least get to a Super Bowl without him.  There is also still an outside chance that Henry returns for the playoffs.  Regardless…What they showed tonight was very impressive. They are better than most people give them credit for.

I am just saying that you don't have to mention it so much. We hear you.

They are underrated because people don't trust Tannehill. I like him but I like game managers. Give me Tannehill or Teddy -- they show leadership and lead their teams to wins.

Sooo Packers...

 

Have Rodgers and no WR's on a short week against the top NFC team in the league.

Have Jordan Love with all WR's with a long week to prepare for the free falling Chiefs.

You choose. 

 

 

Tough spot for the Packers organization.

They are not winning with Love. So if they wanted to let their playoff hopes disappear, so be it.

I guess if I spend more time on this, I may understand. What do these mean? @EastStreet @Shive or anyone else. What does the bottom one say about the Colts, the Vikings, the Bills, and the Cards?

 

Top one.... Our O is good. Only 3 teams significantly better.... 

And if our D was better, we'd be legit.

 

Bottom one... Our run D is top 5, our pass D is bottom 10. Our pass D was bottom 10 before all the S injuries, so it's not really just a recent thing.

Wow. All these penalties against the Bears are absurd. And many have come in key moments. There was just a taunting call following a third down stop. That was a killer. It extended a drive. Now Steelers up by 6 with about 3 minutes left.

I just had to log in to say that the ref bumped into the Bears player, then threw the flag.  The replay clearly shows it.  The ref moves his hip into the player as he walks by and the tosses the flag.  NFL should review this game for sure.

I saw that.

 Fields is going to be a good one.

 

Did you feel the same way after his first game? Players need time to play well. They cannot be expected to look like Peyton Manning in their first game or even their first season.

    • Of course the speed is real unique in terms of him always being a top level separator. What I also like for him to be such a big dude is his feet. He's actually pretty nimble after the catch in small spaces.  I thought he just played on the outside but I've seen LSU play him from the inside as well. Also see them throw him quick hitter, screen type passes that he makes extra yards out of. I think he has very good hands and he is good with his routes. I didn't dwell much on attacking the football because that can be taught if it's an issue. I've seen some say he doesn't always go all out every time but no prospect is perfect in college. If I had things to fix I don't see big holes in his game. Just few things I like but not exhaustive
    • What do you mean back with a bang?  PFF rated Hooker 77.3 and Blackmon 68.3 in 2023.   Not a huge difference for a pick 15 and a pick 78? who had "injuries limiting their once all pro careers".  LOL.  But they did not play exactly the same roles.  Hooker was ranked poorly in terms of most stats, while Blackmon pretty average.   Example: Hooker was targeted only 10 times while allowing 8 receptions (ranked 90th).  Blackmon was targeted 44 times allowing 31 receptions (ranked 18th)  There are nuances with the stats though.   DeJean at 22 or later plus a 3rd round pick would give us probably a better all around FS/SS than either while picking up another player from a trade down.  Not that I'm advocating it.  Just one plausible event in a sea of fantasy drafting.   Brian Thomas or Chop Robinson at 22 would be nice too, IMO. Or even a RT.
    • Maybe his mannerisms, speech, and occasional (apparent) emotional public interjections (Saturday, comments about Daniel Snyder, etc.) play a part in public perception.   A truly recovering addict would admit his contribution to public perception and would not lay it off onto bigots, as he is indirectly doing.   He's probably not truly recovered and I would take anything he says about his issue as being a flat out lie until proven otherwise.
    • What do you like most about him? Personally, I liked him less the more I watched film. I see his comp as if DK Metcalf didn't attack the ball. I think he'll be good, but highly limited coming out. I'd like to know if I need to go back and reevaluate.
    • I agree thomas is one of of my favorites  along with Worthy for speed reasons.
