Think of it this way: Baltimore was said to be one of, if not the, most talented rosters in the league before the season began. If they make it in they could be a problem but their schedule is brutal down the stretch. Bengals could be tough if they somehow win that division, but their entire team is based on Burrow throwing to Higgins and Chase, which is hard to stop but when you only pass eventually something bad, like a sack fumble, key drop, tipped pass INT, or just a bad throw, is bound to happen eventually. I'd worry about the Ravens in the playoffs but nobody else. I see people scared of the Texans. The TEXANS! LOL Yes, they beat us on TNF and sacked Allen like 71 times. Atlanta beat us pretty good also on MNF. Would you be scared to see them in the playoffs? IF the Ravens make it in, they will be the trendy pick and ALL the pressure will be on Lamar to get it done with that supporting cast and defense.

Everything stated here is subjective interpretation of events in order to produce circumstantial evidence of some conspiracy absent any real proof.

Yup, and the worst part is that it spreads to the players over the course of the game.

We all have our thresholds for “max stupidity”. For the esteemed Frankish, a fierce independent, that threshold is a republican using campaign funds inappropriately. Probably the first time that’s ever happened. Mine was when the word “Latinx” became a brief thing. If that wasn’t enough, we then had the likes of Redhawk, ostensibly a doctor (albeit a poor one), and KBJ become confused about what a woman is. This despite several prior decades of knowing the answer to that vexing question.

I literally sleep with my boss, every night. My boss is my wife.

Ok I don't need to waste any more time on this. If you can't see the difference between good QB play and good statistical output that is on you Tua led the league in passing in 2023 and was still a limiting factor in their offense. Most people who watch the games would know this

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.

I've had some bad bosses. But my current boss is absolutely amazing. Just a great guy, who recognizes good effort and isn't looking to scapegoat anyone. Genuinely supportive & encouraging. It makes a big difference to have a boss like that. He's a Pats fan, but he's even cool about that.

In most of the mock drafts that I have seen that have us taking a WR in the 1st it's been someone like Boston or another big tall red zone threat, not much speed in this draft ,what little there is will be long gone by the time we are on the clock , guessing mid 20's

I believe the refund usually hits your account like 5-7 days after it’s determined the event is not happening.

Wouldn’t count on it. He doesn’t immediately win the rep vs tackle. In fact no one on our roster does. For a long time. flloyd and pre injury Von and Lorax only ones I would say

Yep, screwed

Thanks for posting Brandon.

Uh-uh, notice that Shakir has been looking back at Allen for a few seconds before the throw. A good covering linebacker should turn his head which would potentially intercept the throw. In fact I think Terrel Bernard did this to Stroud last year. Now in no way I dismiss Allen is great in recognizing the situation and throw the ball. I saw this many time Mahomes did similar things throwing to Kelce in the past when we marveled the chemistry between them --- fact is, at their heyday, Kelce would look back the first time and the ball would be there no matter how close the defender would be to him, almost un-defendable. When watched live, I thought Allen threw a prayer and got answered. The replay showed clearly it was a lot more than a prayer. An interesting question is if it were not 4th down, would Allen still throw that ball? My answer is more than likely not. The better option is actually #14 behind Shakir but that requires a higher degree of throw to get over the guys around Shakir, but not too high for #14 and Allen really had no time to set up for that throw. Just the amount of processing going thru a QB's head and instinctively knowing exactly when to throw before the defenders crashing down to him, you can safely say very very few guys has what Allen has.

Go watch and realllllly listen to him talk about players. It's the most generic stuff you'll ever hear. "Yeah this guy at QB, really hits his 3 step drop and gets rid of the ball" He offers nothing insightful. Listen to him on ESPN when he was talking about the Bills in the offseason. Of Hoecht: "This guy is multi dimensional, plays a lot of positions, is tough. Can put his hand in the ground or stand up." MOST of his takes are like that. From the OP: "They aren't one of the most talented teams in the league, they aren't that good overall from a talent perspective, they lack play makers on both sides of the ball, very poor WR core and Kalir is more of a WR3, , have to scheme up offense, and rely on Josh being Superman which is hard to be sustainable and win like that. " What did you learn in here that you didn't already know? This is repeated on this board time and time again.

Why would Putin's b*ch dismantle our cyber infrastructure?

he wasn't high on Coleman. Felt going into the draft we should move up for BTJ, but where we were, we should have taken someone like McConkey. Seems he was right.

All players have limitations. He was in the running for MVP that season because he was playing objectively well. How much credit you personally feel he deserves for his output doesn't change what his output was. Good QBs have bad games and seasons. Bad QBs have good games and seasons.

You get refunded. This is the first year I've not purchased them. The busy successful last 3-4 years I've had to rely on others, STH, to get them. But other years when it was unlikely they'd be publicly available - is buy them and get a refund in like March. Lol

I mean, it's what many of us have been saying all season and it has bitten the team in a few games this season. The margins are so thin in the NFL. If a 4th down deflection doesn't bounce right to Coleman for a TD in week 1 and if Burrow doesn't toss a softball right to a blitzing DB we're likely 7-6 with a hill to climb to make it into the playoffs. But instead we're 9-4 and in a commanding position to make it in and make a run, whereas both of those other teams are in deep trouble. The question is whether any QB, even Allen, can put on a cape and will a team to a SB. If anyone can it's Allen. I'm convinced this is the year. The AFC playoff picture is a joke and we have #17.

My question is will Mcdermott's butt pucker up like has in the playoffs, or will he just coach like he normally does. He just gets too tight and you can see it in his face and his decisions.
