Right. i agree. I'm just the messenger here, man.

Bengals told Dunlap just to stay home this week. So they are all in on shipping him out. He's interesting.

FWIW “The Athletic” has a writer that puts out a whole list, position by position, on his standout performers for the week. EO, Chris Jones and Donald were the 3 names mentioned for interior DL. DI Ed Oliver, Bills No interior player muddied the pocket more than Ed Oliver did in Week 7. While he didn’t lead the group in pressures — he was second to Grady Jarrett — he consistently pushed his blocker into the pocket and prevented Sam Darnold from stepping into his throws or sliding to escape edge pressure. Oliver’s role as a pressure-enabler was a big part of the day that Trent Murphy, Quinton Jefferson and Mario Addison had. He also did a fairly good job corralling Frank Gore and La’Mical Perine, though his role in the run game was also primarily as a player squeezing lanes and forcing running backs outside. Oliver, for the most part, played an excellent game buried beneath the statistics of his teammates

Well you would make the 3rd person that has said they have a different definition of clutch next to his.

That literally took me 10 seconds to find. That’s the point. I didn’t have to dig. Literally articles about him leaving and his clutch catches. But ya, “throwaway line”..... or just a matter of facts.

Funny. Literally googled his name and one of the first articles I found is this one https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.star-telegram.com/sports/nfl/dallas-cowboys/article227461389.html title of article states he was their most reliable Wr over his last 3 years there and then a direct quote from the article.... “What the cowboys will miss most in Beasley was his ability to make the clutch catch on third down.” but you do you..... and not be a fan of a #3wr on pace for over 1000. . That makes sense Any chance we could get a link to that 70% stat? I’m interested on where I could get access to info like that. Would come in handy.

Right. It must be literally everyone else in this thread that doesn’t get it. LOLOL.

I think our definition of what clutch is must be quite different. The dude was a go-to in Dallas when they needed a quick first and he’s developed into that in buffalo. It has nothing to do with a ton of yards or catches overall. Back when we signed him I literally had 5 or 6 cowboys fans in passing by local establishments comment on how much they’ll miss his presence on big downs. Just quoting off overall averages on stats doesn’t say much if anything about clutch factors IMO. Not really even close to what I would define it as. “Still not a huge fan of his”.... said one person out of a whole 3 pages of comments.... geez man.

...... some of the youngsters may not get this one. LOL.

thats literally exactly what he was considered in dallas. The guy had a rep for getting open on big downs. its what got him paid and its what he did occasionally last year in buffalo and with regularity this season.

right. i dont like clutch wr's on pace for 90 and 1000 either. 🙄

So heres my weekly "We're due for a defensive score" post...... Its been a ridiculously long time since we've scored on D(2017). This drought has become creepily long at this point.... We're due for a defensive score

ok so when you say somebody isnt a "big back", without any context, do you blame me for taking that literally and the referencing his size? physically he's a big back. And sunday i saw him run through some arm tackles. he'll get it.

anything over 220 is a bigger back. he's listed at 223.

Except there's an actual set pattern NFL schedules follow so thats sorta debunked before it could ever even get any traction. It cant really even be a theory. it would just be somebody not paying attention to how the scheduling pattern works.

you arent necessarily wrong. but that argument doesnt hold up here. The schedule is exactly as tough as it looked to be, on paper, coming into the season.

perfect.

Huh? I think you may have quoted the wrong dude. Lol

ya man. he's hard to look at even before he opens his mouth.... and then it just gets worse from there.

The hip new excuse from the media now is that Newton hasnt been the same since he got Covid and they dont think its a coincidence. I"ve seen this mentioned on 2 different morning shows already..... This is comical to me because he was asymptomatic. these freaking people just cant stand to be wrong.

I can one up this.... This morning on "First things first" Nick Wright(a complete clown) claimed the Pats had nothing to worry about because after they beat the bills this week they'll be a game back and the Bills will implode. Said and 8 pt win against the Jets should actually register as a loss..... I had a chuckle.

Problem is that might be all it takes against Johnson 🙄 The real kicker in all of this is IF we win the division we would play whomever doesnt win the north most likely.... UGH..... Then theres the waiting 25 years for a home playoff game only to not have fans. This squad will be much more battle tested and ready for the dance though.

I think Kyle Brandt said it well back in August when he was skeptical Cam would be able to "Edelman and white" his team the whole way down the field.... He was right. Even more so now that it seems Edelman has bricks for hands.

I cant remember a schedule this hard... I've maintained since last spring if this years team wins 9 vs this schedule its probably a better team than last years 10-6 squad.

Poyer on pace for 4 or 5 sacks as well.
