yup. Ultimately, he was kind of part of a group of mid tier guys thrown at holes that on paper they could but were maybe not likely to fill. He outplayed his deal and 2 other vets were cut mid season as a strategy, this year we don’t save much with money wasted on MVS and Mike Edwards but next year we will be a little ahead. That we had him in house makes sense he had a better shot

I mean, I agree he will get a bit knocked off but I think you might be swinging too far the other way with the waited until the last second to slide narrative. If you have to have a 10 yard buffer to slide it’s a meaningless rule

4 yards per carry vs 7 yards per pass and a whole lot more scoring, right?

It will take the run game being a more effective way to win nfl games for us to prioritize it

Could just be dumb luck (good and bad) with a guy that’s always been boom or bust and very inconsistent

yea, the dude gronked a player with his brace to the chin of a defenseless player who had given himself up. Both a different era but also a legitimately very dirty hit in any era.

Aaron jones with 4 fumbles in 2.5 games is frustrating for vikes fans I bet

not really touched on the play - maybe the play prior? had that type of weird half running gait to him though edit: now confirmed cleared but still on the sideline

is najee out with a hangover? that was super weird to essentially jog to the sideline and kneel and then is just getting air on the bench, no other treatment?

counter: Friday night before the season CmC was full go. sooooo even now I think Purdue is likely but wouldn’t bet my life savings on it or anything

for sure but that’s still a pretty solid feat to get to realistically probably more of an 8-4 team which is not a slouch

why would trubisky do anything special?

we did it for the pats for a decade. Bad teams blow these games, and good teams don’t. its mostly the gap between good and bad teams

all risk with a bad qb, no number 1 wr, etc… asking for trouble and the upside is what? A 5 yard gain?

I think it’s silly to pretend Josh wouldn’t be incredibly proud of himself in the accomplishment even if his public facing commentary needs to be humbled and focused on one week at a time. while I think it would be a cool thing, it would be just out of this world for Josh himself

the chargers coming to Buffalo would be a nice jump in home field advantage compared to Baltimore.

Rooting for any game to be entertaining what a weak week

No one wants to be on the hook for injury guarantees once eliminated. I wonder if we see the commentary we did about that with DangeRuss being benched last year for the same reason.

burrow has a national championship and an afc championship- I think the guy has some drive to win He lets them afford a few of those guys though

so what’s your downside to Josh being recognized? sure it’s not any of our number one targets for the year but it’s a pleasant feather in the cap still why do you feel the need to cut against that grain out of all the things you could be contrarian about?

Super Bowl is much bigger but mvp would definitely change the narrative around Josh being overrated. I’d enjoy that chatter changing.

I think you prefer pedal to the metal there but may be some argument for playing it as a contain type role- not knowing if mahomes could scoot inside or try to escape back. By slowing down he has paths to any direction he tries to escape and was unlikely to run him down otherwise

meh. I’d have to rewatch that but the 4th felt slow developing and lacking viable options. When taking pressure I would’ve liked something a little crisper I think but live was tough to tell

it’s amazing someone sat through the 20 years prior and could type that

what’s the change in risk at his current state?
