Gotcha- my bad. Thanks for clarifying

And the lack of development from AJ and Boogie has us in a spot where Jerry would be a major addition. Shaq has been better than both by a wide margin according to my eye the last 8 weeks

Doesn’t have much to do with AJ being bad. He’s our 3rd DE - 37% of the snaps will be going up with von out and maybe Rousseau bother week or 2. He’ll be on the field for several important plays. He’s smack talk relevant imo.

Meanwhile we’re starting boogie and Shaq @DE. we need a pass rusher badly if von is out for the regular season

Same as usual. 1 of 1 Texans getting pressure And always has been.

Yes please

Yeah, Miami looks like we did in 2020

Miami is set @ HC for the next 10+ years. I’m jealous of their play calling

Oops sorry. I was responding to the chiefs getting “another cake walk”. Not sure why we would pigeon hole it to only division games when the actual schedule better encapsulates what is an actually cake walk.

The problem with this poast: Mckenzie hasn’t had much success - prior to this week, he had 13 receptions in last 6 games- gabe has 1 good game in the last 5. Knox’s best game is 7-70-0- not much success. Considering our WRs, I’m shocked he hasn’t had more targets since the Steeler game. He had 5 targets in that game and 6 combined targets since.

Well….when I say we didn’t take advantage, that’s what I meant. On top of the east division games, the 17th added game, we got the WFT at home. Free W. We went 1-3 vs the weak AFC south , losing to Tenn, jax and got steamrolled by the colts. That cost us home field. We went 3-1 vs the weak NFC south- one good team and 3 crap teams- our schedule was easy. Easier than KCs- afc north and nfc east- their games vs division winners- packers, titans , bill. our game vs division winners - WFT, Steelers, chiefs. we even had the tiebreaker but couldn’t take advantage.

We didn’t take advantage of the cakewalk because we didn’t get home field advantage while Josh Allen is winless on the road in the playoffs. Last year was a failure.

I’m glad he’s back. He’s no where near as good as Edmunds in coverage.

Whatever, you have no clue what Beane did. Cry more

I agree that KC is getting a cake walk this year…..but it’s not easier than our division the previous 2 seasons. We had our cake walk and couldn’t get home field. We had our chances but we blew them

I doubt it’s part of the reasoning but at least it allows them to get a better look at Rhodes to see if we’re better off with he or Benford as depth come playoffs.

Spends on the type of pass. If it’s a swing and all you need is speed to the corner, you’re right, he doesn’t have the speed. If it’s over the middle with the rb running n-s I’d rather have motor. He’s far superior to both cook and Hines at making people miss. on Thursday, we weren’t making anyone miss all game. Detroit did a very good job of tackling

I hope we never play on thanksgiving again. Tre last year. Von this year. No thanks.

If we don’t have Dawkins, Miller, Morse, groot and edmunds there are plenty of excuses. I don’t see a way we win without that group. The OL would make sure of that and the defense wouldn’t have enough firepower to get the turnovers we’d need. Without Dawkins and Morse, all 5 of our OL would suck.

We just need to avoid adding more injuries on top of the current ones.

Benched for who? Your takes are insufferable. Every post is of the same quality.

Yes, it’s my belief that there’s a greater chance of us having a penalty than there is them returning the kick for a TD. Either McD agrees with me or “we panicked”. Considering the play calls we were making (2 Josh allen runs) he was thinking a step ahead and, imo, knew when he wants to take the TO. It’s not like he’s the first coach in history to call a TO with more than 3 seconds left in the same situation.

No. It means that hes never played this this group of DTs and opposite Von Miller before……. O it means that his sack totals from years past don’t mean that he wouldn’t have more this year. He’s always been one of the better pass rushers in the league, regardless of his sack total.

I don’t look at worst case scenarios to make my decision. I look at the chance that these things will happen. Much greater chance that we commit a penalty and our chance to kick the FG than they return the kick for a TD or hit a Hail Mary. and when discussing this in your original post you stated that “we panicked” when making that decision……when they may have just seen things differently than you do. agree to disagree.
