Week 10 Around the League

I truly hope NGC East is won by a 6 win team and forces NFL to blow up the playoff format -
Week 10: Bills at Cardinals
Ethan in Cleveland replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Holy hell. Bills may give up 50 points tomorrow. Only hope is Bills offense wins TOP by 10+ minutes -
They would be wise to try and extend Williams now. It would be nice to tag him for a year but they make no distinction between LT and RT so that is not going to work. Best guess is that Milano and Williams will be gone. They will keep Feliciano. They will draft OT in top 3 rounds next year (along with two front 7 defenders) and give Ford another shot to win RT spot.

Another team angle related to Josh’s play...
Ethan in Cleveland replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There is no denying a bend but don’t break strategy can work against many teams. But the OP is correct. Against a team that can move the ball at will giving up a few chunk plays is worth the risk of forcing negative plays and turnovers. I hope they stay aggressive but also understand there is a time and a place to play it safe. No sense letting bottom tier offenses like Patriots, Jets, Broncos, and Dolphins get big plays when it is more than likely they can’t sustain long drives. But if they want to beat KC, Pittsburgh, and Arizona they need to play like they did last week. Bills had the most short field scoring opportunities in one game than I can ever recall thanks to defense and Andre Roberts. All in all Rex is not bad as a commentator. I thought that last year as well. -
A Bills TE has never made the ProBowl. Not one since 1960. Some dumb DC would look at his speed and have him drop in coverage too often. Hopefully just like LT did, he would ignore the play call and just rush the passer As an athlete, OJ would be comparable given the size and power he had to go along with his speed. But I completely agree, Bruce is best Bills player of all time.

I think coaching is in his blood. As a GM he has done a good job of jettisoning players before they decline. As a GM his drafts have been so so but no better or worse than any other.

Matt Hasselbeck on QB “intangibles” and Josh...
Ethan in Cleveland replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Different era Kelly had Thurman Thomas Kelly won playoff games Yards are nearly meaningless. TD/INT ratio, YPA, and completion percentage are the most important measures for QB play. Allen is not throwing interceptions and if he keeps that up and fumbles less then he has a chance to be great -
Question for those who witnessed the SB years?
Ethan in Cleveland replied to whatdrought's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If they won XXV, they would not have gone back. Think of the incredible things that had to happen for them to make it back.. The comeback, Kelly’s injuries, the Broncos championship game where they only scored 10 points. Just don’t see them willing themselves to victory if they had already won it all. And if Wilson had a SuperBowl win do you think he would have kept spending? -

I’m not saying intangibles don’t mean something. But accuracy, intelligence, arm strength are far more important. If you don’t have those three, intangibles get you guys like Fitz or even worse Peterman. Maybe they are good competitors but they are flawed QBs. Guys like Brady, Montana, Manning, Elway, and Young have intangibles because they check the box on accuracy, intelligence, and arm strength first. Different era Kelly had Thurman Thomas Kelly won playoff games Yards are nearly meaningless. TD/INT ratio, YPA, and completion percentage are the most important measures for QB play.

Will be difficult to win if Tre can't play at near 100%. Best hope would be some crazy shootout
