  1. The franchise is a joke and I get the frustration. However, it's not because they got a 5th round pick from the Bengals for Flacco on an obvious rebuilding team so they could see if they had anything in these two young QB's. When you're not competing I don't think it matter where you trade a 40 year old QB. It's not like trading him in the division will come back to bite you. Help is on the way in Watson anyways.
  2. I'm not dumb enough to take the fricken Steelers. Hope Mahomes doesn't let me down.
  3. OK. If they can do it I've got to get back to the gym.
  4. Pulled his arm. That's a foul despite what that idiot said.
  5. That was too easy. That LB should've been much deeper.
  6. That's just if the idiots put the ball on the wrong yard line after a penalty. Take the loss man. Their wouldn't be any controversy if illegal motion fell under that blanket.
  7. What's funny is you did the research and still come back with this reply. Illegal formation is not in there and is not reviewable. The TD should have stood. The Chiefs are also the most penalized team in the league in totality for a number of years now so I'm not some ref conspiracy theorist.
  8. If they got assistance from the sky judge on this play on whether this was an illegal formation then the refs broke the rules. I'm not sure if they asked for help from New York or they got a buzz in their ear. If the refs received any assistance from NY the touchdown should've stood even though it was an illegal formation.
  9. I don't like it because the average field possession was about the 25 before the dynamic kickoff thing was concocted. Now it's about the 29 both last year and this year. Combine that with the juiced up field goal balls and you don't need very far just to get into field goal range.
  10. The controversy is whether New York assisted the officials in calling the penalty which would be against the rules. A sky judge can't help with an illegal motion penalty like it can with an intentional grounding penalty. Campbell claimed he asked an official about why it took so long to call and the ref said they were getting assistance from New York. The right call was made but New York (sky judge) wasn't allowed to have been involved based on the current rules. Do I think the NFL is trying to fix games for the Chiefs? Absolutely not. Does the NFL need to get its crap together on what can or can't be reviewed by the sky judge on penalties? YES.
  11. I was kidding. The only way to ever have a chance to win one of these things is to take some risks.
  12. Only five yards would make o-lineman more likely to hold to try and get away with it. Defensive holding at least is an automatic first down. Things I'd do because I hate kicking. -Bring back 20 yard extra points. -No more kickoffs. Opposing team gets ball at 25 yard line. Teams can still declare for an onsides kick. -The same ball used in the previous play is what the kicker has to use to attempt a field goal.
  13. If the lack of ball movement was because of Josh that's a really good thing because he's always been great at self correcting. I suspect it's not that simple though with the o-line allowing uncharacteristic pressures and WR's not getting open at the rate you hope they would.
  14. I think it would be pretty funny if Brady called a jet sweep the first play of the Carolina game.
  15. I might risk it all on the Steelers.
  16. I always like the idea of double dipping and stealing a possession. It's a tiny advantage in a game of inches. The exception for me is if the weather is supposed to be worse in the 2nd half.
  17. I paid off the refs because I had the Falcons money line.
  18. I think he was referring to the predictability of our offense but it did make it seem like he was blaming Dawkins. LOL.
  19. It was 3rd and 1. Last year they just do a QB sneak once if it gets you the first or twice if you only get half a yard. This is the most easy problem to fix. It's lack of talent at the skill positions that concern me the most. It concerned me most last year too but we were extremely efficient at not turning the ball over along with avoiding negative plays. This was bound to regress to the mean which is why a lot of us were begging o trade for a true #1 WR like DK Metcalf this off-season. You need an explosive playmaker on the outside to succeed in this league. Period. We don't have that right now. That's on Beane.
  20. ESPN power rankings has us at 3. NFL.com has us at 4. CBS has us at 10. The Athletic has us at 14. I'm somewhere between CBS and the Athletic.
  21. Buffalo style has it perfect and that is absolutely because I'm from Buffalo. I'd go Detroit, Chicago, and NYC after that.
  22. Guys. He was given a shovel when breaking ground for the new stadium. He's not going anywhere unless Allen himself demands it or some other unforeseen circumstance. My stance is still the same. If they come up short in the playoffs again because of the defense then yes. He and Beane should be fired. You can't keep spinning your wheels.
