The Steelers have 14 first downs, 200+ yards of offense and have had one TD called back on OPI.
They look fine, Denver is starting a rookie QB and looks like it.
Holding will not be called “if, during a defensive charge, a defensive player uses a ‘rip’ technique that puts an offensive player in a position that would normally be holding.” Rule 12, Section 1, Article 3, Note 1.i.
We used to have a pool at a bar I frequented where you won the pot when your chosen team scored exactly 25pts in a game because it's an extraordinarily rare number.
This one has great potential (if somebody returns something for a TD).
Agreed he's not a bum.
But he was absolutely one of the biggest choke artists under pressure I have ever seen in my life.
The fact that Reid won that many playoff games with a guy that couldn't handle pressure and was scared of his own shadow is impressive, imo.
I'm not saying he's impressive.
But the amount of crap he's taken from football fans over his career is not commensurate with his level of play, imo.
If you did nothing but read about Carr you'd think Nathan Peterman was an upgrade for the Raiders.
You need to also consider the fact that the Bills are rarely playing from behind late and aren't forced to go for it on 4th as often as other teams.
That's why their total attempts are low, not because McDermott is conservative.
He has his flaws, but being afraid on 4th down isn't one of them.
