NFL TV Schedule and Maps: Week 10, 2020
JimKellyTryouts replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I guess Jim and Tony need a bye week, too -
I can agree with #1 and #3 but...the others are highly debatable (and more likely incorrect), yes?
-
As of today, Barkley strictly because of him knowing the playbook and our offense much better than Blake would. I'd be surprised if the FO would dedicate a roster spot to him as our third QB (or outright replace Matt with him) Also - please correct me if I'm wrong - but wasn't one of the bigger knocks on Bortles throughout his career his lack of commitment to working hard and lots of partying? On top of his horrid mechanics

Week 5: Bills at Titans on Tuesday Night Football
JimKellyTryouts replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, the Vikings results (thus far) have been a pleasant surprise. But in regards to Gilmore testing negative, he was until he currently isn't - because the virus can have an incubation period of more than a few days. If he got it post game or off the field, that's one thing; but if it was merely delayed in relation to Cam... 😕 Valid point about the airplane and other close contact being more or a concern - I was referring to the pic with Pat as a worst case scenario (and the one that'll draw the most headlines for obvious reasons). -
Week 5: Bills at Titans on Tuesday Night Football
JimKellyTryouts replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I've read a lot of posts requesting to just push the Titans game to Monday or Tuesday this week and to further delay the Chiefs game but...as KC/NE showed us, a(n attempt at a) quick fix does nothing! If Gilmore had contracted covid from Cam before the game on Monday, who knows of the snowball effect that would result. That picture with Mahomes is pretty damning, and if the face of the NFL gets it, that's probably (and unfortunately) the swift kick in the rear the league will need to take things more seriously and completely re-assess things. TN being possibly subject to forfeit is fair, if the league can find blatant violations of protocols, but if they don't...that's honestly bs just for the sake of trudging along with the schedule as is (until more problems arise). I've gotten so exhausted with the discussions, politics, and overall ignorance that masses have shown to this situation. It sucks. I'm all for putting the season on pause for a couple weeks, but what exactly will prevent this from happening all over again in the future? -
Josh Allen: Franchise Quarterback
JimKellyTryouts replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm definitely buying one jersey. If we have sustained success and multiple playoff runs, I'll get a second color. If he's responsible for us raising a Lombardi, damn right I'm getting a third! Plays like the hurdle, having the balls to stiff arm Aaron Donald (seriously - would any other QB draw a penalty like this today?), and the sneak vs Dallas show why it's so easy for us to gush over him. I'm so thrilled we have one of the most exciting players in the league to watch on a weekly basis. -
Speaking of Elway I'm as relieved as I am confused why they had no intentions of drafting Josh (or any QB that draft) just because they had brought in Case Keenum..? Josh obviously fit his prototype for size, arm strength, etc. as well as being a local kid. Then again, Elway has swung and missed on nearly all of his QB evaluations aside from Peyton falling right into his lap.
-
Another thing worth mentioning is that there was pressure coming at him right at his legs and he was able to get that deep ball off while lifting his plant foot off the ground - avoiding what could have *possibly* been a nasty injury. That is ridiculously impressive arm strength! Thank you for the link, OP! I love soaking up as much as I can when it comes to all-22 breakdowns. I will gladly label this as a "we really needed this other Josh Allen thread" thread 😊

A close friend of mine is a Browns fan and speaks glowingly of him - and as for a tangible response of sorts, I'm fairly certain his allowed completion percentage is among the lowest in the league. I can't say much else for certain since I don't watch their games regularly play by play, but at the very worst, he's a quality player - and I can agree he's not as good as some of the later guys that you had mentioned

Milano and Edmunds OUT against Miami
JimKellyTryouts replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'll be disappointed if we can't manage for this game at the very least, but next week vs Goff/McVay's quick pass game - I'm hoping for at least one of our guys to be back , as it will be much needed -

I draft 11th in a 12 team snake draft
JimKellyTryouts replied to YoloinOhio's topic in Fantasy Football
Spot on - my preferred format is 0.5PPR so that's the only reason I'm slightly lower on the animal that is Derrick Henry (on top of the heavy load that he's been getting) Always glad to offer to opinions/insight to one of this board's most respected members - feel free to message me any other time for assorted questions! Would also love to see this board more active, but I'm sure it'll pick up steam throughout the season -
I draft 11th in a 12 team snake draft
JimKellyTryouts replied to YoloinOhio's topic in Fantasy Football
Jacobs apparently played through a separated shoulder - on top of the few games he missed. Despite that, he's gained a reputation for being a tackle breaker, should have a bigger role in the pass game, and the raiders OL is a rather strong and complete unit so I'd be content with him as a late first rounder. Personally, with how deep WR looks to be this year, I'm likely taking RB-RB as someone also drafting late first (and assuming Mike, Davante, Tyreek, Julio are in the mix to be taken). I personally see these guys as matchup-proof weekly starters 1A - CMC, Saquon, Alvin, Zeke, Dalvin, CEH 1B - Chubb, Jacobs, Mixon, Sanders 2A - Henry, Jones, Ekeler -
Bengals sign RB Joe Mixon to 4yr 48 million extension
JimKellyTryouts replied to Greg S's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I mean, paying him for the duration of Joe's rookie contract seems fine from what I think. He's a very good player (far above mid round replacement level) that'll only make his young qb's job easier and since they have lots of money to spend anyway this contract won't be much of a detriment. -

Rex's first year for me; I was initially nervous to see how his system would work with us, but they continued to assure that they weren't going to put square pegs in round holes despite doing exactly just that for his two years here. The offseason was full of all sorts of flashy moves to improve our offense - Shady for free, Charles Clay who admittedly looked great when healthy with Miami, Percy Harvin, and Tyrod. Roman, and then especially Lynn, made the offense pull its weight with how dominant we were as a rushing team and relative ease of putting up points. Tyrod's agent's comments that were stressing that the defense and discipline were holding this team back from contention were spot on. The over-confidence, self-destruction of what Schwartz did for us, nepotism hire, and exodus of players for various reasons were all rough times. After the colorblinding loss on TNF to the jets, I was at a low point because I didn't see us having any sort of short or long term trajectory for success. Fortunately, Terry did end up striking gold with McDermott's hire, though the handling of the draft leading up to Whaley getting fired made me just as uncomfortable. Luckily, it has all worked out for us rather quickly since our roster and front office is as good as it's ever been in many years
