Well, you should if you're going to pretend like we're fielding a high-end football team. our wins have come against opponents with a combined 20-41 record, with 9 of those wins coming from seattle and arizona. We've played against historically bad football teams this year and we haven't always looked good doing it. Josh has been playing very well this year, maybe the best of his career, but we still have issues on offense (two bad drops by Coleman yesterday, and one by Cook), and our defense is nowhere near the level it needs to be to shut down good teams in the playoffs. We're absolutely in store for another scenario where we can't count on them to stop anything and Mahomes just bleeds us out at the end of a playoff game unless something massive changes. Given that all the defensive talent we have has already bloomed, it's unlikely we can count on too many guys getting hot by the end of the year that make a sizeable difference. Bishop maybe? If your goal is to win meaningless games before Christmas, well good news. We should get to 10-12 wins easy because our division is a dumpster fire and we have 3 more gifts on the way. If you're actually trying to win a championship, I don't think this is a team you can seriously consider at this point. We're nowhere near the top 4, and maybe aren't in the top 6.

Seattle is 4-5

It's the best winning percentage in the salary cap era. Not sure how much better you can be.

Who says it was "successful"? Before the Cardinals won yesterday, we hadn't beaten a team that has a winning record. If we can't beat Baltimore or KC in January, then it wasn't successful. The fact that our division has become the worst in football isn't our win.

ARTICLE 3. INJURY TIMEOUTS PRIOR TO TWO-MINUTE WARNING OF EITHER HALF When an injury timeout is called, the injured player must leave the game for the completion of one down. The player will be permitted to remain in the game if: either team calls a charged team timeout; the injury is the result of a foul by an opponent; or the period ends or the two-minute warning occurs before the next snap. At the conclusion of an injury timeout, the game clock will start as if the injury timeout had not occurred. If either team takes, or is charged with, a timeout, the clock will start on the snap.

5%? I'm guessing he practices that all week and he's probably well above 80% on those reps. The odds of a hail mary working there are far lower. In game time situations they appear to have been around 50% as of two years ago with the percentage of 50+ yarders drastically increasing over the last 2 years:

100% the right decision. If you don't have a kicker capable of making that kick, that's a problem.

I can see how from Poyer's perspective it was a clean hit. He wasn't aiming for the head, but he was slow getting to Coleman, so that Coleman's head came down into the path of the blow. It was the top of Poyer's helmet tot he bottom of Coleman's facemask. He led with the shoulder. Not much you can do about that except not go for a hit at all.

Just spitballing here, but the corporations seem like maybe a good place to start.

Each one of the jets players listed is significantly superior. The difference is the Bills have a much better team overall and don't have a cancer at QB. Cook isn't Cook on the Jets.

Chargers are more likely to be buyers than sellers.

The bills have been chasing a big-bodied redzone target for as long as I can remember. It seems they finally have one, and I don't see them having regrets about that. Sure, he may have Lee Smith speed, but he seems like he'll be a good one to have when other receivers can't get open. Reminds me of Dez Bryant. Hopefully he stays healthier.

That's backwards. Brown is coming back. They also have Hopkins now, too.

Ridiculous nonsense.

The season hasn't even started yet. This is all just pre-season for the tournament.

He seemed fine. Bounced up right away, didn't look pie-eyed or have any extremities twitching. Could he have had a mild concussion? Maybe, but it clearly wasn't enough to significantly impair him. This isn't a Tua situation.

"Again" what? Not sure if you were reading what i was saying, but I laid the blame for the result of the season at Beane's feet. I said it's not unexpected for there to be rebuilding years, but they're always going to lie about it when they have a top QB. The Patriots had rebuild years, Baltimore has, KC will too.

That's totally silly. every GM knows that he's going to have years with more ammunition than others. It's not a question of desire, it's a reality of the facts of roster construction. You can't lose two starting safeties, your starting center, basically the entire WR room and all of your RB depth, all while mired in cap hell, and expect that you're going to be stronger than you were the year before when you weren't good enough to get it done. It's just not an expectation that's based in reality. Are they going to give it all on Sunday to try? Sure, maybe. Will they be optimally equipped to do so? Absolutely not.

I have no idea why anyone thinks this is the expectation. Is it because that's what they told you? As soon as they took that massive cap hit to dump Diggs and then did nothing to replace him, they told you it was a rebuilding year. After they turned over most of the defense and did little to replace the huge pieces they lost, they told you it was a rebuilding year. If you bought the company line that they're doing everything they can every day to win the big one, that's on you. I said it after the draft. Beane is looking to 2025 and 2026. He'll get a small window then to try again. This year? 1% chance.

How didn't it?

He's 2 years into a 6 year deal. Let it ride until the end. If he's still in decent shape by then, re-sign him or franchise.

If it had to happen, this is the best time for it. It's an extra offseason for the senior citizen to rest up and keep rehabbing that dried up rubber band of a knee.

Peyton Manning

Nah. We already had one predator in our teams group we had to ditch, don't need another. He's also considerably worse than Bass.

Yes, 21 yards - known to literally everyone who has ever watched football as a "deep" pass.
