Its not just points though. Its the ease with which they do it at. It's about extending drives that dont result in points, from 2 First Downs, to 3. Reducing the times we go 3 and out. More cracks at 3rd and short than 3rd and long or medium. Having the ability to beat a team with an entire playbook.... having an entire section of a playbook left untapped when the playoffs roll around, for when you REALLY need a first down, or a drive for 3points. We are regular season points kings, no doubt! The defense in the playoffs needs to be better, but theres more than 1 way to skin a cat. Having the defense step up and playing 10% better against KC gets it done! But getting an extra 10% outta the offense gets it done too. Sometimes leaning into a strength is better than spending extra time/effort/resources into something you're not good at. There is a reason you don't go to the urologist to clean your teeth! If you know something and do it well, its a heckuva lot more valuable to increase resources at doing that thing better.

Dude has got a major split in the road moment here... one that has forged a winning attitude in some of the greatest men ever! Or revealed to everyone and themselves the ultimate act of cowardice, immaturity and selfishness of their own character. For all parties involved I hope Stef picks the right one! Hes young enough to right the ship that is his life, relationships and attitude, and wind up a better man for it. I can say without a doubt in my mind, I'd be proud as heck to see him pick the high road on this one!

No, injuries, specifically how they lingered, were a symptom of 'No Brain Disease', significantly worse than CTE. Dude admitted to getting drunk EVERY night! He didnt put in any work in the film room. Finally, HE CUT HIS G*D** CAST OFF WITHOUT MEDICAL INPUT OR EVEN MEDICAL SUPERVISION! DO YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF RARE COMPANY THAT PUTS HIM IN? PEOPLE WHO HAVE CUT THEIR OWN CAST OFF - PEOPLE WHO HAD MEDICAL INSURANCE, LET ALONE THE LITERAL BEST IN THE WORLD?! Absolutely. F'n. Bonkers!

Of all the things she could make him wear, this would be the least cruel! Veggies arent the only thing better for the body when raw

I didnt think anything of the media side of this... teams can choose to say or not say things but great point on the legal tampering loophole. Owners didnt care at the time because its good for value of all the teams... now the bill is due, and theyre scrambling looking for mistakes on the receipt. Im just going to decide not to care. Until proven otherwise, anybody leaving my team to g2 Raiders is making a mistake 🤷‍♂️

Interesting! Is their one that sticks out? Can't say ive seen it, I may have dismissed it myself a week ago... but seeing that Lions celebration, and post game handshake with Campbell was a major red flag. The guy could've got another HC job a year early, and he stuck it out to try and wrap up 'unfinished business'. In the business that is the nfl, thats a move that should leave you beloved. Wonder if players think he was to busy interviewing during post season, to help them try and reach a SB. That'd be my guess with the limited info we have.

While I think their can be exceptions, I think all evidence we've seen has been contradictory. I think itd be foolish to assume that teams like Cleveland, NYJ, and Chicago have repeatedly "guessed wrong"... year after year. If you look at these teams individually it certainly looks like these teams are ruining prospects, that would've panned out elsewhere. When you combine these teams and a few others, its pretty ubdeniable IMO, that from an odds perspective, theres no way these teams have had that many bites at the apple. Some years theyre accounting for the first 2, 3, or 4 qbs taken overall! There was an article on this recently on how different teams have handled high drafted QB's, amd looking at the details, its pretty easy to see where a bunch of these QB Factory teams go wrong. Might be unpopular, but i do NOT think Josh is anywhere what he is today if he landed in Cleveland or NYJ that year.... gun to my head answer? I think he fully busts out with how raw he was. We forget how much work, and support he received his first 3 years here, to refine that talent. Do certain prospects have a higher chance at NOT busting? Sure they do, but a quick glance at these teams over the last 15 years, without a single one of their teams hitting on a QB prospect.... chances are even the best prospects would bust if taken by these teams! (IMO). https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6584516/2025/09/02/nfl-first-round-quarterback-busts/

Not enough of one honestly. Unless theyre letting him get some extra time first few games, with the intention of ramping it wayyyyy down. Even so he was on the field way too late in Jets game. Dude should see a few 3rd downs in first half and then hopefully we're up enough to get him in a ballcap

Lee Smith who can run routes? Yeah, this dude is going to be beloved here. Dude has been plug and play at a position I think most would argue is the hardest college -> pro transition too. I expect some rookie up and downs but dang, this is the type of role player that gets the juices flowing. What a fit for the offense

Are you nuts? Getting even a Tremaine lite, surprise boost out of a 3rd rd LB'er at this juncture would be an 8-run HR... on rookie deal salary. Sure itd be awesome to get some amazing play outta the kid, but at this point we'd be doing really well to have him just not be in the way.

What kinda LB do you think Curtis Samuel is getting in return? My fat slob ex gf?

Man, this one is such a mystery to me. Has all the traits, appeared to work hard and know how to prepare. Hes now in a defense that suits him well. But thats the draft in a nutshell

This reflects on the GM to be in a position where you may need to fire your HC 11 DAYS INTO THE SEASON LOL I like Mike M, but damn this couldnt have been more clear that he'd lost the locker-room going into the end of last season. To just roll a guy out like that anyways is brutal decision making. Its possible GM Grier wanted to move on from the HC, and the owner - Stephen Ross, said NAH I'm not paying a guy ~$16M ($4m x 4, i believe) to no longer be the coach! If so thats an even worse reflection on the franchise. Imagine blowing up an entire season over $16M ($$$ he pays one way or another). *Hate to see it* 😆

Will 100% get roasted, HOWEVER, if Brady gets a HC job, I'm 100% bringing in McDaniels (a guy with a major chip on his shoulder) to run the offense. The dudes brilliant, but the team has turned on him. What he lacks in leadership, he can earn in respect with our guys. Also, there are plenty of coaches and even player coaches, set up as framework where he wouldnt have the same issues here. This job would look like a trip to DisneyLand with Josh running the offense. Also, I see him as a guy recognizing his ceiling and not wanting to leave a coordinator position for HC job, allowing us some continuity. Fangio (situation is how i picture McDaniels playing out) is a guy good enough at his job to warrant some tire kicking for HC again, but seems like a guy happy to be in the best role for him. Would absolutely love to have an offensive version of Fangio, controlling the offense and not having to sweat a new OC getting a HC job every year.

Good call! ... just did LOL I might regret it, because that division is going to be a dogfight. Denver is going to force some foes to split series with too

We should already be scrubbing up on executing it the way they do. Hell, start executing it that way in games right away. We can get good at it ourselves. Or We start executing it the same Offside/false start like they do during regular season.... now you got 2 teams doing it that way. More attention on it. Maybe they'll start calling it right once the fans moaning loud enough. If not we can at least match their energy.

Hoecht IMO is going to be such a hugeeeeee add. We're missing his versatility, its going to be a key to this defense. It allows us to hide what we want to bring. Hes got juice rushing the passer, and very good in the run game (something we're going to need in playoffs so much)... Hey suspension is helping manage his load already

1. #1 Seed 2. Rack up some blow outs to help manage guys health & get the rookies extra start time, so they can hit the ground running for playoffs. On that 2nd note, I saw Deone Walker getting double teamed what felt like every snap he played AND hold strong against it! Dude turning into the defenses Spencer Brown would be so damn huge

Amen, a short rest, September game in MIA heat would suck (its night game though, so atleast we wouldnt get literally cooked). Me thinks that locker room knows they stand no chance without a new coach, and are going to give a terrible effort. We should try and jump out 10-0 / 14-0, to cement that. Id love to get out with a W and be able to do some load management for starters

Dudes a fish outta water there. Their GM should pack his bags too lol "We have a young coach struggling with leadership... LETS BRING IN JALEN RAMSEY!" (I know hes gone now, but that stands out symbolically to me) I feel bad for McDaniels. Hes clearly not cut out for this role, hes a playbook/playcall kinda guy, but they really fed him to the lions with setup for failure. Remember that one class you were in in HS, with all the ISS/Detention Magnet kids in it? And that day the really sweet soft spoken, usually lunch monitor came in as a substitute? Where they didnt give her a lesson plan? Yeah its that

I was looking at this game yesterday, 2nd to last week, but what formerly wouldve been last week of the season. Its so important to lock up the 1 seed prior to that game IMO. I DO NOT want to have to play them right before playoffs, with a possible rematch, if we handle our biz this year. Absolutely crucial to be able to sit our guys that week fully, or roll them out for a 1st quarter only "stay sharp" only kinda game. Could be even bigger if we got to rest our guys/play vanilla, while getting a chance to see their starters while they need to win a game late!!! Thats far away, but handle our biz week to week, and this could potentially really pay off IMO

Not gunna lie it spooked me with how alarmed he looked. For a brief moment I had some kinda Hamlin moment flashback. Anybody else? Probably a bit tense after seeing a popular news story video on Twitter earlier this week. Good sign to spend more free time here on TBD thsn that other app this week. Especially for Victory Monday!

Smarttttt. Time to do the same with Bosa!

^^^ I said the same thing but not as well as this. Complaining Ed is out, I fully get, it sucks!!! Blaming them for a hard practice, when its football, is a bad take. I still prefer this approach to teams that let starters hit it hard in pre-season games!!!

what will that look like in 2 years by comparison? What will the NFL salary cap look like next year? Or in 2 years? Its been 10+ years of Fan community getting sticker price shock, anytime somebody at any position, who is top 5, signs a new deal. 1. You need a QB 2. You need to protect a QB (more than LT) // You need to disrupt passing game. To me DE > LT, because one player can have much more effect than the other. Have a nasty LT? Pass rush LB can go to other side. Elite pass rush makes your DB's lives so much easier. DE is by far the 2nd most important position in the NFL. Salary cup is always going up. Next man up at a position is almost always going to reset the market.
