Tennessee is up by 2 touchdowns in Miami - if both them & us win, we need to dress Mack & rest Taylor next week, going into the playoffs in a virtually meaningless game - I'd even have Ehlinger play the 2nd half, regardless of the score!

i have been the biggest wentz guy for a while but he is starting to scare me the last couple weeks .  i think his weapons are a big reason why but he is missing guys wide open and throwing to high .   hopefully he gets going in the second half

He's up and down like most QB's are. Allen looked bad against us, Jones stunk in the 1st half vs us but caught fire in the 4th. It happens.

We are in desperate need of another receiving threat, the guys we put out there right now are just not doing anything other than Pittman. We need to get Campbell back before the playoffs (assuming we get in) and then hit a really big FA WR immediately in free agency.

Whatever the outcome, that's the direction everyone takes it.

 

If he attempted the FG, but it got blocked, those same people would have been saying Frank should have gone for it with JT.

 

If he runs the same play with the same outcome with Hines, it's a good call, but can you imagine the reactions (from myself included) if he had run Hines up the middle, failed, and gone into the half with no points?  This thread would melt down.  haha

 

Yep. Fans only look at the outcome. I liked the decision.

We wouldn’t do that unless we were guaranteed the 5 seed. If you don’t have the 5 seed locked up you play your starters to get it, because if the championship game comes down to you and one of the other two wild card teams, you get home field.

Been watching RedZone and very few cut ins until late in half....looks like Wentz finally  started making some completions, maybe against soft coverage but still counts( just ask Brady and Daniel Jones lol). 

Wentz maybe our weakest link in playoffs.

 

Notes: Jags are bad... Tua not good.... Stafford having a bad game... Bengals uni's looking good as well as Burroughs & Chase... Looks like I made mistake picking eagles.

 

Colts need to do what they do best, run Taylor in second half and get the W.

My hope is that Pryor can at least become a servicable swing tackle, it is a very underrated

the problem is pryor is a right tackle and is a solid right tackle .  its hard to switch to left tackle in one week

Maybe switch him and smith?

    • Cowboys WR and kick returner KaVontae Turpin says that he isn't fair catching anything. College has those rules, and he never did that in college games. Maybe other players feel the same way, but aren't saying anything. There might not be many fair catches if players don't like it. 
    • Nelson will be better, Raimann will be also.  The other 3 spots I am less confident.  Freeland getting 1st team reps now sounds good.   Get him ready asap.
    • ESPN came out with a new top 5 of all-time players list as of 2023, their list is: 5. Magic Johnson 4. Bill Russell 3. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 2. LeBron James 1. Michael Jordan - There panel consist of the guys that work there and analyze all the games = people like Stephen A. Smith, Mike Greenberg, JJ Redick, Tim Legler, Brian Windhorst. It was a list that those guys ended up agreeing on.   Bill Simmons who wrote a book on the top 100 players of all-time, came out with his recent top 5 (2023) - it has changed from his book which he wrote in 2010, he has: 5. Magic Johnson 4. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 3. Bill Russell 2. LeBron James 1. Michael Jordan   Mine as of 2023 is: 5. Kobe Bryant - what put him in my top 5 was, him winning the Back to Back Championships without Shaq = 2009, 2010. His 2nd best player was Pau Gasol and the rest of the team were role players that were ok but weren't great. (Associated with the LA Lakers)   4. LeBron James (associated with the Cleveland Cavaliers) 3. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (associated with the LA Lakers) 2. Magic Johnson (associated with the LA Lakers) 1. Michael Jordan (associated with the Chicago Bulls) -I think both ESPN and Bill Simmons rank Bill Russell way too high. Simmons is from Boston though and loves the Celtics. It is because of Championships so I get it but he wasn't even better than Shaq O'Neal IMO. Shaq was way more dominant offensively. I do have Bill Russell in my top 10 but not top 5. I think Wilt Chamberlain was actually a better player compared to Russell as well, he just didn't win like Russell. When it comes to Larry Bird, that was my toughest top 5 omission, but IMO Kobe was a hair better. Bird is the greatest Celtic in NBA history not Russell.    
    • I asked because compuls1v3 said three bad years in a row is a problem. Going back to 2021, he was a top 10-15 OL, at worse, and he was injured. In 2022, he started out looking bad, but got better as the season went along, and I think he was above average overall.   I think people tend to exaggerate the standard for highly paid players. We definitely need Nelson to play better than he did last year, but I don't think anyone should be expecting him to be gone after this season.
