At some point you just have to get it done though. And particularly you can’t be the reason the team didn’t get there by blowing a big moment So far so good this year.

I bet there are rumblings just as there were with Sean Payton towards the end of his tenure. a ring gives you a ton of credibility but not forever.

yea, I think you have to see a big outlier and then actually look at the games included. 10-0 in major games and consistent calls going their way vs 10-0 because he got 8 softball games that were generally called tight. it’s a flag for investigating further but not definitive yet as it’s a small sample and assignments may not be totally random

If hurts is hobbled, it’ll help a lot. That said, I’d take the commanders first

im sorry but if he has kelce like potential he should be eating more

you do realize the owners buy the rings and can give them to the lunch ladies if they want, right? It’s not the nfl mandating who qualifies.

heck, I don’t mind it but I’d rather spread out their defense and let him choose pass vs finding a crease pre snap.

yea, I chalked that as pay back for a few earlier calls (against Dawkins, and no call on ed o getting hauled down)

Honestly- if questioning coaching… how did the ravens motion Henry out of the backfield on the first two pointer after waltzing down the field 10-15 yards at a time? If nothing else make else sell out on the run I imagine if they ran Henry both 2 pointers it would’ve been a more interesting game but coaches do dumb stuff. See Jameson Williams at qb for the lions and no one calling TO for 12 men on the field for them. Two premiere coordinators. It’s why you kick and make the other team execute.

the worry is we’ve seen other guys come in mid season and get zero packages. Hines for instance. I know a different coordinator but it’s a little curious that we aren’t designing anything for a guy again and he’s getting very limited snaps.

Still very low on special teams and a week without catastrophe won’t change that

but even early in drives in the 3rd quarter? Did he have zero carries and maybe 10 air yards passing in the first 20 minutes after halftime? I’m sure I’m forgetting some plays but generally…. We can’t say Josh is the mvp because he doesn’t have the talent around him and then make the choice to contain him in the backfield and put all the pressure on the other guys to make a play. I’ll buy that in September to preserve health but in January he’s got to be bigger in putting the nail in the coffin instead of bleeding clock with other guys taking the hits for him

Much more. chiefs are more vulnerable than ever

maybe spread the ravens out a bit and sneak Josh in there a bit though?

I think you can be a lot more bold in the third quarter and have the same time consumption (maybe more) we went a long time without a pass past maybe 2-3 yards down field or an Allen run. im not saying you have to go run and shoot there but they don’t have the talent around Josh to completely pull him out of the game for most of the second half and if not for a huge fumble we may not have won a game we had a two score lead

feels like every week rapp hurts someone could be an opponent- could be himself or a teammate id be super curious how many games he’s missed time in for blowing up himself

yea I haven’t seen enough of his games this year to comment confidently but the stat line was impressive and what I saw before tonight seemed like steps forward - I wasn’t sure how much was change in his play vs having Henry, some receiver help, etc… but clearly to finish the year with that TD:Int ratio, he’s doing something right

I kind of like the idea of the Monday after the conference championships even, with the bye week for the Super Bowl. 1 seeds in the first round bye, Super Bowl teams in that bye and the rest when eliminated. I might be bouncing an idea for limiting active playoff coaches for this last week? Some of the teams interviewing 17-18 guys is just gratuitous. If limited to 1-2 guys actively coaching in this last week maybe there’s a better focus on real candidates and not just calling every playoff coordinator because you have nothing better to do

he certainly has input

AND even fail all those it’s 50-50 in overtime roll in that 8 makes it basically impossible to lose in regulation and you have to do it this I was curious about live

I think Lamar is an elite nfl weapon I think Lamar is a very good player at the qb position. Puts it together non traditionally but easily a top 5 guy. I hate how Lamar has become symbolic of a bit of an unspoken cultural battle. He’s such a fun player but near impossible to talk about his play because there’s so much more attached to the conversation for a lot of people on both sides ((note not just saying race here but also new school vs old school, etc… too))

the loss on third down made it a no brainer. id be infinitely curious what spot on the field was his tipping point

it’s strange how few reps he’s getting. Trying not to project past situations as we have Brady now but it’s weird how slow guys get worked in under McDermott so I’m not sure what to think

If he can’t play he shouldn’t be on the roster… let him be a coach

I don’t think you start Hyde but you are edging towards him being your last active guy in case of injury to bishop
