Hill was a key player on two championship teams and was arguably the best WR in football for at least 3 seasons. (And in case you didn’t watch the game on Thursday, he still has a lot left in the tank, but his QB sucks) There is no planet in which Reggie Wayne deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Tyreek Hill, longevity stats aside..

We've put up 30+ points a game, all three games this season. Last season opposing QBs could set up lawn chairs and sip lemonade waiting for receivers to get open. I think we're okay on offense, and understand the focus on defense. Just gotta get healthy on D.

Puka’s styke of play could leave him on the IR more and more often as he gets older. It will be interesting to see his career develop because he does have the skills to be a HOFer.

For KC to get the tiebreaker over the Bills they would have to win their division. At this point the Bills are a heavy favorite to win the AFCE. KC is going to have a hard time winning their division this year. If they make the playoffs as a WC and the Bills win the division then any potential playoff game is in OP and won't matter who wins the regular season game between them.

Truly i hope it doesn't. The game has changed so much in the last 20 years. You got floppers like Allen and Mahomes and when you touch them its 15 free yards while back in the day you could obliterate the qb and the refs wouldn't even look. In the next 10 yrs how do we know we aren't going to be playing 2 hand touch with flags around our waist 😪

and that has happened already with Groot. All im saying is be patient, the "glory numbers" will come.

Good call with Lane- forgot about him

I think the % of 3 LB sets are a result of McDs overall approach of becoming much more multiple on both offense and defense. He’s trying to adapt. We ran predominantly 11 personnel in 2020-2022. Drafting Kincaid and playing more 12 was an emphasis that could keep defenses more off balance. If teams wanted to cover 2 she’ll us to death as they were in 20-22, then we could more easily take what the defense gave us in terms of running the ball and in the short passing game. As a result, we saw more team play cover one and funnel passes to the boundaries. We didn’t have the correct personnel to excel on the outside to start 2024. Traded for cooper after drafting Keon to help out. Then signed man beater Palmer and the speedy Moore to replace the washed Cooper. Teams have no reverted to playing more cover 2 vs us this season and Josh (and Brady) is taking what the D is giving us. While I haven’t watched much all 22 this season, Joe Marino has stated that we are running deep routes, but teams aren’t giving us the looks to throw deep. We’re averaging 34 ppg. Can’t complain much about what we’ve been doing. Having the ability to play the short and the deep game has been working for the most part. Pertaining to the defense and 3 LB sets- since McD took over- every team knew that we’d be running Taron out there 85-100%of the snaps and taking advantage of the lighter boxes was their choice. Running the ball and short passing game/rac was their choice a lot of the time. While getting off thr field on 3rd has been a major problem in 2 games so far, we’re still able to accomplish McD MO on D. Limiting big plays and forcing teams to dunk and dunk down the field with hopes to get a turnover. MO stays the same, but being more multiple in our sets forces teams to take different approaches at times. We’re also blitzing a lot more this year (to my eye, no stats to back this up, so I could be wrong). Bringing pressure from variable gaps has the ability to confuse offenses. Disguise is key.

Agreed. Of the 6 member rookie class, TJ and Dorian already have over 70 snaps and Deone has 54 snaps. Of the virtual rookies, Logue has 41 snaps and Cole Bishop has played 26% of his career NFL snaps this year.

Currently 41st in total career yards. He's 3000 yards behind Reggie Wayne who is not elected. Hill obviously is a superior talent to Wayne but he still needs the numbers. With how hard it is to get WRs in and his domestic abuse allegations, I dont see it. At the age of 31, not sure he has enough career left to make it.

I see the Dolphins are wearing their rivalry jerseys vs the Jets this coming Monday. I think the Bills rivalry jersey looks much better. https://www.gridiron-uniforms.com/GUD/controller/controller.php?action=teams-season&team_id=MIA&year=2025

Sure not poor. But not impactful in getting the qb off his spot or to the ground. Yet. I’m more focusing on this knee bruise conspiracy these pressure stats mean nothing to me. All that matters is a pressure that results in a incompletion / ideally from an off target throw or a throw away or a sack or run oob by a teammate bc of the pressure

I’d add Davonte Adams, and I’d add Puka Nacua to the “too soon to tell but have a good chance” list…he continues to be underrated because he was a sixth round pick.

SB Win

Ravens. We currently hold the tiebreaker, and they're going to make the playoffs. KC is in a weird position where if they continue to implode they may not. That, and KC can still nab the tiebreaker with us if they beat us. If we meet the Chiefs in the playoffs, I do *not* want it in Arrowhead yet again.

Yeah, I like our chances against Baltimore in Buffalo. Really think the likelihood of a win goes down against them if we have to go on the road, though.

1-3

your crazy Groot has not been playing poor There have been pressures. There have been great run defense/setting the edge. Sometimes it is obvious some people don't understand what they are watching. Sacks will come, pressures have been there, its been 3 weeks. Relax. And yes I too want to see him with double digit sacks this season.

Evans has had over 1000 yards in every season he's played in, aka 11 maybe 12 straight seasons. I can't think of any other WR doing that.

Not first ballot, but Calais Campbell could get in. He is a 6 time pro bowler, 1 time first team all pro, 2 time 2nd team all pro. He is just a role player now, but he was pretty dominant for Arizona and Jacksonville for many years. Not sure I'd put him in, but he has a chance.

Hard to believe that a SB contender will be 3-1 (Doubt it ends in a tie) after next week. I never would have predicted that.

i was just more amazed that you believe what you posted.

I was thinking the same thing. There are so many guys that could retire in next 1-2 years there will be some hard choices to make.
