*every play

No hold on Zay. Surprising. Refs probably figure since he can't hold on to anything no sense in calling holding against him either.

I'm hoping for at least 5 more drops this quarter. JFC

Our guys get held very obviously on most plays and we rarely get the call.

I was just beginning to wonder if Steve Fairchild was calling plays, but suddenly showing a little life.

Milani, leg or head?

I think Charles Clay has a big day today. I think Allen goes to him early and often to show no hard feelings about the "drop" last week to end the game.

And, when he is eligible, I imagine he'll go really early. I saw a crazy stat that he has more yards on first down carries than any other big ten back has on the season.

This is kind of like being your own grandpa.

Matt Ryan with wheels? I'd take that! Joe Flacco, not so much.

This is pretty cool and something different for this time of year (it is more like an offseason post). I really like the Bills concept/colors as well as the Lions, Vikings and Eagles. https://247sports.com/ContentGallery/Combining-NFL-helmets-with-the-colors-of-local-college-teams-119959419/#119959419_1

Several very good RBs will be available in rounds 3 and 4. We need to grab one of them.

I don't think he'll be stepping anywhere tomorrow.

There's Vander Esch again. I'll need to watch Edmund's more closely this weekend.

Maybe he's learning the game at this level, improving his instincts even more, will eat a couple of rare steaks this offseason and will come back with more manhood and capability of filling some holes.

I don't think I've seen Edmunds avoiding contact. Is that a thing?

I was contemplating this. Edmunds is having a great year, but Vander Esch has been a beast since he's been in the starting role. I'm trying to determine who will be better 5 years from now, and am not really leaving one way or the other.

Vander Esch has his name said A LOT during Dallas games. He's looking good.

I agree. The original post about this said to assume Rodgers would play at a similar level as this year for four more years and that Allen shows positive development for the remainder of this season. I think the knee jerk reaction says it is a no brainer trade to make. But, the potential of Allen developing into "the guy" for Buffalo makes it a pretty interesting question to consider.

Is it really that easy of a decision to trade a potential franchise QB (think 15+ years of QB stability) for four years of Rodgers?

I would take Allen over Darnold. On a similar note, but completely different question; there are rumors that Aaron Rodgers will likely not finish his career in GB, and even that he may have already, or soon will, request a trade. Some (random chatter I hear on sports radio) feel he has about 4 to 5 years left and that his skills are diminishing, though his numbers remain solid (TD to INT ratio is ridiculous - shout out to Poyer). I think it is apparent he looks better now (these past two games) since he his healthy and has mostly regained his full mobility. Obviously this is hypothetical, which requires some assumptions, but assume Rodgers wants out of GB and does have 4 good years left (similar level of play as this season). Would you trade Allen straight up for four years of Aaron Rodgers producing at the level he is currently demonstrating he can play at? It is a complete unknown what exactly Allen will achieve, but for the sake of this question, assume he continues to progress and display signs of positive development. I do not mean to hijack this thread, but it is all "would you rather" QB discussion, and I did not see much need for a completely new thread.

Already? He didn't even get a real shot.

It's against a bad Jets team, but maybe Barkley is earning the opportunity to sign a 3 or 4 year contract to be JA's backup.

He has, and he has still been limited by the way Detroit has used him. At one point he was averaging something ridiculous like 7 or 8 yards a carry and they were giving him the ball maybe 4 or 5 times a game. It seemed obvious from the beginning Johnson was their best back by far, and they still insisted on a very inefficient and not very effective rotation of backs up until about 2 weeks ago.
