No 24 hour rule?

Don’t count Cincinnati out with Burrow coming back.

The crazy part is that the offense didn’t play anywhere close to a perfect game today and still put up 44 points vs a decent defense.

They don’t have the players without overcommitting the secondary, and that opens them up to big passing plays which McD will absolutely not allow. So I think we’re just going to have to live with it until next season.

It’s supposed to be faster than the refs dragging the chains out but it doesn’t seem to be.

He’s a solid #4 WR. Decent receiver and plays ST too.

Yes. He’s been average this season. He’s gotten beat plenty.

Helps that both Evans and Godwin are out.

Part time. Swapped with White.

When you say “better than average”, that would mean that there are more teams in the NFL with worse talent on defense than better. I don’t think that’s remotely true.

Good returns. The fumble really hurt though.

I think you are overestimating the talent. Bosa is good vs pass, bad vs run. Benford, Rousseau and Epenesa are average. Hairston, Bishop and Walker may be good but are inconsistent right now. OTOH, you have Poyer, Bernard, Milano, Jones, and Johnson all staring and all below average.

Stop the run with a light box and high safeties. Pressure the QB with a four man rush. Give up no big plays. problem is, you need at least 2 app pro DL to make that work and they don’t have them. Not even close.

The talent is there. I’ve always thought that if he committed himself to being in top physical condition he could be in the top two or three.

I wonder how much of that is because the Tampa RBs were constantly into the secondary on their runs.
