Not gonna read through 20 pages, but my initial reaction after watching in slow motion was that Rudolph got salty that Garrett tried to take him down at the end of the game and so he tried going after Garrett's helmet. Garrett didn't like that and proceeded to dominate Rudolph in response. But Garrett took it too far when he used the helmet as a weapon on a helmetless person's head. O-linemen were just doing what they were supposed to but imo DeCastro did the smart thing by just laying on Garrett until he cools off (he must have been a fat kid all his life because that's a bread and butter move for fat kids). Pouncey also took it too far with the kicks and punches, but not to the extent that Garrett did. It sucks because I can see based on the chain of events why Garrett got so heated, and I know how he felt in that moment, but he still went too far. And clearly everyone involved on the field had some serious adrenaline pumping. It was hilarious to see Rudolph so upset, because in a 1 on 1 Garrett would kill him with his bare hands. Feisty little guy.

Dunno if this was said yet, but a rule of thumb when being blitzed is "pass towards the blitz, run away from the blitz". Two extra rushers came from Allen's right, one extra came from Allen's left. According to that rule of thumb in this situation, throwing to the right is usually better (since more potential coverage defenders have left that area to blitz the QB). Could be that Allen went with that rule of thumb, but that rule of thumb doesn't account for completely blown coverages on the other side of the field aka Beasley being open.

What a loss...

Damn

Not feeling it.

Very gutsy final drive by the Browns.

Incomplete pass. *****

I almost think Poyer might have had a better chance than White did if White wasn’t there.

Levi getting back at Landry for earlier lol

It really is.

Safety!

Even if he didn’t grab the mask, isn’t slapping a player’s helmet illegal?

Edmunds again beefed it.

Excellent play call by Daboll.

Definitely.

Thoses passes were a little off.

I was just about to say that. Star is doing exactly what a big 1-tech DT does, and he does it pretty consistently. If you play 1-tech and are never, ever, ever moved off the ball by two 300lb offensive lineman, you are probably the best 1-tech to ever play the game. Some people need to temper their expectations. Star isn't a problem.

He's not even fully grown into his body yet. He won't be 22 until December. Sometimes these guys transform after a full off season of strength and conditioning. It's disappointing that he's not there yet, but it's not concerning. 8 games into the 2020 season, if he's still invisible, then we have a problem imo.

Imo, there are two things that are hallmarks of NFL middle libebackers: 1. Instincts 2. Edginess When I watch Edmunds, I do not see an instinctual linebacker that plays with an edge. I'm not sure how you grow into either of those things, but otherwise the talent is undeniable.

Whole team stunk minus Gore.

They were the better team for all four quarters, from start to finish. The real question is if every team copies what the Eagles just did.

Unreal.

Well that was a dumb series by the Eagles.

He was open. Allen didn't lead him enough.

Brown had to slow down to catch that. Needed to be lead more.
