    Well, the OP isn't using the Golden Handcuffs metaphor correctly.

    I always used it to mean that you’re in a situation that is just so comfortable, it’s hard to move on, even if you know you should. 
     

    Like a job you hated, but just couldn’t quit because the work was easy and the pay was good. You’re stuck and can’t move on.

  2. Well concerning Bernard, what exactly is his stock right now? Right now, he’s a 3 start MLB who has flashed a few amazing plays. 
     

    What is the value of that stock?  IMO, that game wasn’t the peak, but an indicator of greater potential. I’m keeping this stock like a guy who heard about Apple before it hit big. 
     

    Actually, I’m buying because I think if he pops next week with all eyes on BUF/MIA, there will be a run on his stock.

    Diggs is giving him exactly what he was trying to gain. 👀

    We pretty much got to him on every play he was in, right?

    Four plays; each time.


    IMO we were geared up and aligned for a game where Rodgers was slinging it all game. It was all about QB pressure/hits and it seemingly worked too well. 
     

    We never expected him to be out at all, let alone so soon. If he was in, there was no way they were going to rely on the run. He was the star, they were going to lean on him come heck or high water. 
     

    As soon as he was out, the Jets “put on a tourniquet” went back to their fundamentals, which are strong, and obviously found some success. 
     

    I also think we’re built to have a lead, but that implies passing/abandoning the run. This odd circumstances made that impossible for the jests, and I believe we were caught flat footed. 
     

    Like we focused on the passing calls/alignments and didn’t review the running reads as much for the new guy. 
     

    I think we will only get better.
