Would love to see the dolphins lose so I will be ‘rooting’ for NE for the first time ever. Curious to see what the giants look like as well

There can’t be a better feeling than going to a team and single handedly transforming an entire unit like he did last night. In LA he was great but always overshadowed by Aaron Donald it seems

Titans were dangerous last year because aj/Julio torched us in play action when we started slowing Henry down. I don’t think they are nearly as good of a team this year.

The injury risk on designed qb runs is actually very low. Pretty much every study on this subject concludes that qbs that carry the ball a lot don’t really have that much higher risk of injury than pocket passers…gnarly stuff happens in the pocket too with linemen falling on top of you and fingers getting broken on helmets and getting a concussion smashing your head on the turf during a sack etc. he should definitely chill out with trying to hurdle dudes for sure though lol I hope we see less of that kind of stuff

Or we can be excited that we got two starting caliber corners to add to a unit without much depth last season. Who cares which one of those two guys is better 1 game into their career

Had to hit a longggg fg to even get 10 too looking at how tough this first half of the schedule looks, idk how somebody can look at this road win against the rams as anything other than huge. But op did it somehow 😂

The injury rate on designed qb runs is actually surprisingly low. Qb rushing attempts don’t correlate as much with injury risk as most think

I talk about this nonstop lol. We squandered away the 1 seed last season with a rough patch in the middle of the year. The chiefs are nearly unbeatable at arrowhead barring a mahomes once in a lifetime second half meltdown that I would not count on happening again. The only other playoff game they lost at home was via the OT coin toss against NE. I do think we were a bit unlucky in some of those very close games we had an expect some of that to even out…but it’s pretty much indisputable that there were a few game like jax and Indy where we did not play very well

A Justin herbert homer who writes for the ringer I believe

Pretty safe bet that Elam and/or benford will be serviceable…I don’t think I trust a coaching staff more to develop young defensive backs than ours. also I don’t think these experts really seem to grasp how much a good pass rush helps out the corners. Kupp is going to get a ton of attention and the rams will be forced to play through Allen Robinson who is new to the system.

Oh yea I’m by no means saying we had an impressive regular season…11 wins against that schedule was pretty disappointing. Last year was a year where we should’ve been a heavy favorite for the 1 seed and we coughed it up due to a rough stretch in the middle of the season. I think our win total was a bit of an aberration though as we went 0-5 in one score games…that tends to correct itself in the following season assuming the team in question is at least decent. I don’t think it’s controversial to say that we would have beaten the pats pretty comfortably in slightly less windy conditions though and that really was the difference between them making/missing the playoffs.

Why do people always attach the word ‘rookie’ to qbs like they are guaranteed to improve as they age…lots of guys get off to good starts because defenses haven’t yet picked up on their tendencies then they end up flaming out

Nothing against what he’s done in the past obviously but I wasn’t terribly impressed with belichick last season. The pats making the playoffs felt a bit flukey imo…they got the browns and titans absolutely ravaged by injuries and the bills in that ridiculous wind storm. couple that with the afc east having a bunch of easy opponents on the schedule to begin with… NYJ X 2,HOU,ATL,CAR,JAX. They faded down the stretch against buffalo and two pretty good afc teams that didn’t even qualify for the playoffs (Mia and Ind) and got absolutely smoked in the playoffs.

Seemed like we showed up in all the big primetime games last year and it was the mediocre opponents we didn’t show up against. I don’t think we have any issue with players showing up in the clutch

Great coach but I don’t think he’s even a good gm. His whole philosophy seemed to rely on Brady carrying the weight of the offense with only role players to work with at the skill positions. Seems like that has caught up to them

I’m not sure their draft last year was even as good as it looked…there were more easy wins than ever on the afc east schedule last season. I think the dolphins and pats fans could be unpleasantly surprised this season with a tougher schedule. We choked pretty hard during the regular season last year so i still think we’re gonna win more games than last year

Rams lost a lot of pieces in the offseason which offsets missing tre imo…you’d think von miller would have some insight into the rams strengths/weaknesses too. I’m goin bills -2.5

Not resigning jerry Hughes will help with no-calls for obvious holding penalties 😂

I’d honestly love if all this Miami hype is complete nonsense…I hope the pats murder them. Love when these random coordinators get hyped up as football masterminds and then they make terrible head coaches

I mean the nfl could choose to suspend players that are pending trial

I believe there were settlement offers presented by each side at various points…none of the lawyers actions on either side make any sense to me though so maybe I am just confused lol

Just based on the lawyers actions alone it really reads like he was trying hard to bully araiza into a settlement before the season started. I have a feeling they are keeping him updated on the criminal case and he’s got a pretty good idea araiza is not going to be charged. Of course these lawyers are absolute nutjobs so their actions may be impossible to read into. leaking the diary still makes absolutely no sense to me…he has this intricate retelling of events in the civil suit then releases a diary that basically says the victim has no idea who brought her to the room or who was in it couple that with the suit mentioning they had an earlier sexual encounter and he just put together a defense for the opposition

There is in California where ‘mistake of age’ is a valid defense (that’s not true in every state) her diary says ‘told him I went to grossmont’ which is a college and a high school and his lawyer will argue it was a college party and all she said was ‘grossmont’ and conclude that he doesnt think anyone reasonably would’ve asked if she meant the high school. Probably would hold up in a criminal case…civil case he’ll likely settle.

The CBA change seems to really be throwing people for a loop on the optics of this one. If that event happened while he was in the nfl he undoubtedly would’ve been suspended indefinitely until the criminal/civil cases were resolved and there would’ve been nothing to read into regarding how the bills handled it. that can’t be done anymore for events that occurred in college for nfl players

Just strictly based on her lawyers actions it really seems like he knows Matt wasn’t involved with the gang rape and they thought they could bully him into a settlement to avoid a statutory rape charge because that will likely be a tossup in a court room. Of course he could just be a bad lawyer that’s presenting his clients side like that accidentally though It seems like it’s being rumored that there may be some witnesses that said Matt wasn’t in the house when the gang rape occurred and that would make some logical sense based on what her lawyer has been doing and it would also explain somewhat why the criminal investigation is taking so long. No idea if it’s true though
