This strikes me as a chicken little Bills fanesque sentiment. Who says he has to have a bad game. Maybe he continues to progress like you would like to see? Sure, he may have a down game but hopefully shouldn’t be anything like reverting back to his rookie bad game form.

If I say yes, do I actually get to?

So let me get this straight. You want to back up the brinks truck for this guy?

Let them play the game. I have not been desensitized by the NFLs constant cracking down on helmet to helmet hits even without intention. In this specific situation, he did not dip his head to lead with the helmet. They play a violent sport, there can be consequences but they make a lot of money to do so. If they do not want to deal with the consequences, they can make a living elsewhere. It’s ludicrous how many restrictions on tackling there are or restrictions on who can be hit and when. There should be stipulations when signing contracts making it well known how dangerous the game is and what they are signing on to. It should absolve the NFL (not likely in the litigious country we live in unfortunately) of any liability for injuries done in the normal course of play. Let them play the game.

It was sooo wide open too

No flags so far, moving quickly. Let em play!

What if he did? This isn’t a life threatening situation or anything. It goes well with the topic. Lighten up. Now if we’re talking about something that actually matters, then I get your point. Sheesh.

Oliver is much better than the average distance from the AB. Shows his quickness to get close to the qb. He was in the backfield all day.

Awesome to see, I have no doubt it was because they were the best people for the job not because of diversity and inclusion initiatives. People who insinuate that or push for that don’t give credit to those who earn it. That just diminishes their accomplishments to make it seem as though it was because of that. Meritocracy always, regardless of immutable characteristics! Good job ladies!

I always hesitate to put Thurs night players in. It’s usually sloppy and low scoring. Can’t do that with Mccaffrey though.

I sure hope so! I would like to see replication before I anoint him, so far it looks good.

Exactly right, they’ll continue to beat that drum until either they feel vindicated or they cannot ignore his greatness.

We’ll see who’s right as the season progresses.

Pull back on the reins there a bit, “BEST” back to play the game? He’s got a long way to go to earn that moniker.

Classic

Uh yeah? What is your point here? No one is promised the same exact life. Wouldn’t life be boring if everyone could only live the same life? No variation or variety. Everyone has different lives and live life differently. This just seems like a generic comment that means nothing at all. The US is the land of opportunity, not the land of everyone gets everything everyone else gets so that they can be equal in every way. That’s just nonsense. We we all agree on equality of opportunity, no one should be kept from obtaining something others can due to immutable characteristics. In today’s society there is no systemic racism, just bad actors that need to be weeded out. Where we don’t agree would be equality of outcome. Ie no one gets preferential treatment or outright given things due to their immutable characteristics. I know I know, this comment is more for PPP so I will step off of the soap box. Chad Kelly has done nothing in this league and there is no reason to believe he will flourish anywhere, even with Uncle Reich.

You’re making the claim. I’m not at a place to go back and look. I know the QB has changed but that doesn’t mean the entire starting O or D is done. They usually go much longer in the 3rd game.

Are you sure it’s their backups?

How boring is this game? It’s all run run run.

Peterman-can

Up is down, left is right, it’s forever Opposite Day... etc etc etc

Yep

I didn’t realize I was fired up. Thanks for letting me know.

Aren’t you special?

Sure I’ll grant you that they have been about that but the game has changed in the information era. The timeframe for which the be the first to get the info out has become razor thin. I think that has more to do with it. But I digress, we’re getting off topic.
