  1. The grief that Davis was receiving earlier in the year was entirely unwarranted, imo. On the very rare occasions when he's had any kind of space whatsoever to operate he's shown more quickness and agility than anybody has been giving him credit for. His biggest problem has been the predictably of Brady's offensive sets and the fact that 90% of the time he touches the ball he's instantly got two guys in his face because half the stadium knows the call. I don't care if your Saqoun Barkley, John Taylor or James Cook; no back can operate like that.
  2. They could. But if they steal the #1 seed and Vrabel and his staff have two weeks to prepare, they're probably going to thump somebody.
  3. The last word of your title should be spelled w-e-e-k
  4. He probably saw the WR off-balance and took it as an "indicator" that he'd been yanked. Hopefully it was a cheap lesson to knock that nonsense off and call what you actually see instead of what you couldn't. <laughs at own naivety>
  5. Comparisons to bad ones could be equally instructive. Tough to quantify though with so many odd little variables, not with just the players but also with destinations and situations, and the inevitable bias that creeps into something we're emotionally attached to.
  6. The only thing I disagree with is that this game had any chance of becoming interesting at any moment
  7. It looks to me like they've had him spending more time chasing TEs and he's not getting as many chances to attack the LOS. If they're protecting him they need to stop, because he's already protecting himself.
  8. They're usually good at End with troubles on the inside, but today all 4 positions really struggled. They should have plenty of gas in the tank for Thursday
  9. This would absolutely be the best option, but it's also November and you can't beat him to a pulp 2 months before the playoffs even start. There almost is, but I think the case for Shaq, Bernard and Cam negates it. I've always been a Taron fanboy but Lewis is a more dynamic defender now so I'm sort of OK with that switch. But even right now, 85% of Bernard is a better option than Williams. And if he continues to get better (which he has been) the case becomes even stronger. He's about the third/fourth level of the trickle down problem caused by Oliver's injury. It murders us at every level of our rotation.
  10. That doesn't make him a footnote (or even a feetnote). And that was not pop music; that was the best rock 'n' roll band in the world for a measurable period.
  11. Just not allowed to lead with the crown of your helmet any more.
  12. geebus, at least walk 30' away from the injured guy before you call a penalty on him
  13. Give him a break. The poor guy is blind!
  14. And who exactly are you going to replace them with that can take on an unfettered Guard in their face? The problem is up front and no other amount of tweaking can fix that, imo.
