    Check downs brought 18 years of football purgatory?  Check downs broought Tom Brady 7 Super Bowls.....used correctly it is the right play some percentage of the time.

    To be clear I was referring to taking "check downs" as the first option not as a later option.  Brady understood this.  What was being argued for IMO was the Kurt Cousins check down approach.  You know the one where on 4th & 8 at the end of a playoff game you throw a 3 yard completion.

    You know I was being sarcastic, correct?

    I didn't but now I do.  My bad.

    Even with that insane play and a marvelous performance throughout the game, Wilson threw for over 400 yards albeit in a loss. Congrats Josh! Hope you new home has a huge mantle for the awards you’re going to win later!

    I was a little surprised that Allen got the award over Wilson.  But in that game Wilson did throw a bad pick 6 while also going against a historically bad defense.

    It’s wild that Lamar has almost 1k more yards than Allen. I think having a bad defense actually helps in terms of volume stats. Look at the yardage Burrow is racking up. Allen has sat quite a bit of time in the second half, or just had times where the Bills were handing off to run the clock.

     

    Just like Watson in 2020 who had almost 5000 yards passing on a 4 - 12 Texans team.  Garbage time stats further enhanced by throwing against prevent defenses for a quarter per game can really boost the yardage & TD numbers.

    Interesting no mention of Josh Allen as it did appear he was favoring his left hand and grimacing after plays.  Might have just been his "snow squint".

    I read somewhere that Allen said he dinged his "funny bone" on that play which can hurt like hell for a few minutes but have zero longer term effects.

  5. My view of McD is in the process of changing.  He does seem to be coaching differently, his 4th down gambles come to mind, while still maintaining what he's always been good at - building a solid culture.

     

    I also think McD may be benefiting from a shift in the NFL as it moves from total offensive domination to a more balanced defensive/offensive split.  Just look at the return of the RB to prominence and the diminished importance of having a stud WR.

  6. Wow, Aikman & Buck are morons to say teams will be knocking down Winston's door to sign him.  Sure 500 yards and 4 TD's is impressive but he also had THREE picks including TWO pick sixes.  So unless they clone Levi Wallace and make every team start him at CB Winston is still the same QB that hasn't been good anywhere else he played.

     

    Funny how picks are a big deal for some QB's and not for others.

  7. So the refs miss an obvious off side by the Browns on 4th down and before that miss an obvious face mask on the Browns against the Denver RB during a long run. Judas priest these are critical missed calls. The NFL needs to fix this.  Instead the billionaire boys club and their lick spittle commissioner stare at a globe wondering if there's any money to be made playing a game in Kirghistan.

  8. For me that 97 yard drive to put the game basically out of reach was amazing given the weather.  And that pass to Knox that got the Bills out of their own end zone was sublime.  Allen also had another great pass to Knox in the 2nd half.  Given the conditions those two passes were jaw dropping.

     

    This is a Super Bowl caliber team.

  9. Watching multiple NFL games only reinforces just how bad the officiating is.  It is putrid and I can't tell if this is corruption or incompetence or both.

     

    In the Cincy game as clear an Offside as you can get was turned into an illegal procedure on the Bengals.  In the Jacksonville game a brutal, cheap shot was taken on Lawrence as he went into his slide that knocked him out of the game.  After the refs met, with help from NY, they determined the penalties were offsetting!  What absolute BS,  as the Jag players understandably went after the POS that committed the cheap shot.

    I mean people have only been pumping Miami for about 3 years now and for 3 years they haven’t beating good teams and haven’t shown they can win in cold weather. Someday I guess? Miami is just fools gold. 

    They started back up over the last 5 weeks.  Didn't you know that Miami should have beat Buffalo & Arizona and be on a 5 game inning streak?  They were on a tear and the media was starting to drool all over them.  Not so much now I would think.

    Really important game for them.  If he can go at all he will.  One way or another, it's hard to think he will be 100% if he does play.

    Let me offer a counter argument.  While this is a very important game for SF it is the least important of their remaining games as it is out conference and out of division.  And given the expected cold temps on Sunday night there is a reason to believe they would hold Purdy out to let him heal more completely.
