I can’t fault Torrence, or any rookie, for hitting a wall. The professional season is a marathon. Much longer than what these young men are used to enduring in college.
It's especially brutal if you're a rookie coming into a good team and expected to be there for the long haul into the postseason.

We should have made the switch weeks ago. I call it the "Peterman Clause". McD takes so damn long to identify underperforming players. They took forever to deactivate Von and hopefully they swap out Murray/Sherfield for Lenny/ Shorter.
I could see Lenny getting snaps during the postseason in lieu of Murray, don't see them bringing Shorter and giving him meaningful snaps.

I don’t think that’s going to be possible vs this pats d. I’d be ok trying to establish the run the first drive or 2…..but I think our success will come from the pass this game. Building a lead early vs NE will be big. Forcing them to pass so our DL can pin their ears back and make zappe uncomfortable.
has Bailey Zappe had a game against a McD defense? He tends to eat rookie/inexperienced QBs for breakfast.-

Matt Barkley signed to the Jaguars active roster.
Wonder if Trevor Lawrence is getting shut down
At this point are the Jags even gonna win their division?

I agree. That’s why I’m saying 17 has to ball out the next two weeks….and then he’ll be a real contender.
I think Trent Williams is the true MVP of this season. I don’t think Tua should even be in the running based on Tyreek being the only reason Tua is having a great season. That said, I wouldn’t mind him winning to hurt their cap sitch as you mentioned.
trent
tyreek
cmc
allen
lamar
thats how I’d rank then this season.
lamar is on the better team, Josh is more valuable to his team.
yet the mvp isn’t about being the most valuable. I don’t really know what it’s about tbh
Agree on Trent Williams being a legit MVP candidate. When he's out that offense looks VERY different, and not in a good way.

Agreed, but then the media would have to admit ***ALL*** QB's "need help."
But the Chiefs have a great defense, a similarly unimpressive WR corps, a HOF TE, and still have Andy Reid calling plays. So what happened? Am I supposed to believe the dropoff from Juju Smith-Schuster to Rashee Rice is SO massive that they go from Super Bowl winners to this?
Their RBs are still Isiah Pacheco & Clyde Edwards-Helaire, and the rest of their WR corps is still mostly the same as last year (Justin Watson, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore, etc.).
The biggest difference this season is Eric Bieniemy leaving (though he didn't call plays), and more turnovers. Chiefs had 23 turnovers in 17 games last year, but are already at 26 through 15 games this year. Mahomes simply isn't playing as well as normal, and the rest of the offense isn't helping either.
I think it's a combination of they miss Bieniemy, their OL is playing worse, the installed plays just aren't 'as good' (yeah Andy Reid calls the plays, but an offensive staff installs the gameplan and designs the plays and that seems to have taken a few steps back this year), the lack of a solid WR that Mahomes can depend on (was Juju last year) and Father Time catching up to Kielce finally. All of that together and you can see that Mahomes just isn't trusting everything in front of him. The entire offense just seems to be playing with a lack of focus and discipline that maybe Bieniemy brought because he is (according to rumors) kind of a hard ass.

Keenan Allen will likely miss game or play banged up
Why would a banged up Allen trot out in this game though? Head coach/GM canned, backup QB, playoff hopes dead. Allen has nothing to prove and is a known quantity.-

Feel like Allen is doing the right thing, if Diggs isn't open or the coverage says go elsewhere with the ball prove that you will and defenses will learn to respect that.

Ty Johnson has been playing very well.
For real, that dude runs like he's angry at the ground. Dunno why it took a while for him to get some snaps. I blame Dorsey.

Is that 3 games in a row that we've had Romo announcing?

Looks like the Dolphins have lost Phillips for the year (and some of next year?) with an Achilles injury. It's a blow for the rest of their season because he was playing very well.
That sucks for the Phins but injuries are injuries. We've had our fair share this season too.

I see Gabe Davis as our Danny Amendola, rarely pops on the stat sheet, has a good game here and there and just has playoff games where you're like 'brah where you been this whole year?!'

He has become rote after a few years in the booth. Not as good as he was when he fresh off the playing seasons.
Which sucks cuz he was awesome at first and then the networks told him to water it down and talk less X’s & O’s, making him boring.

If the NFL wanted officiating fixed they would have taken steps to do so. The current system is a feature, not a bug.
The best way to not be impacted by officiating is to simply be better than the other team.

I still can't believe that Mike Ditka's record has stood this long, also his other stats are just nuts.
12 touchdowns
19.2 yrds per catch
Over 1k yards on only 54 catches
All achieved in only 14 games

They wasted a year and a half on him. He had no plan B against a lot of teams. Little or no run game, and very little under-center PA. He was turning Josh Allen into Sam Darnold.
On the surface watching the Dorsey offense it just didn't seem to have any continuity. There was little processing of in game tendencies by the other team to set up other plays, formations or options. Each play seemed to exist in a vacuum of well "if the defense presents this, this play should beat that coverage" which to an extent is true, but it completely ignores tendencies and what the other team is trying to do. This is what I so far took away from watching Brady call the game, he seemed to understand that the Jets were prone to doing X if formation Y was presented, and taking that into considering when calling future plays.

It was, although for a second I was worried it was gonna get called back for a block in the back.-

Going with the 2 coordinator role? I know it's happened before....can't remember anytime it's ended well.
Ah yes, the ol' Judge/Patricia combo. I mean at least for the Steelers the two coaches are offensive position coaches and not a ST coach and a former DC.

So far what I appreciate from Brady is that he's had a stint at being OC before, there's a certain wisdom that you gain from climbing the mountain only to fall down and having to start over which Dorsey is only experiencing now. Failure is often life's greatest teacher.

Hurts is beatable if we have a healthy compliment of CBs.
AJ Brown is a damn wagon, I don't think we have a single CB (maybe Rasul?) that can play him straight up, if it's a 50-50 ball Brown is coming down with it.

I suck with salary cap and contract stuff so I have no idea what he might have been worth on the open market when the contract was signed.
Judging by the other extensions/re-signings that Bean has done, there's no real pattern of him wildly overpaying so I'd guess his contract was pretty close to what his market value would have been at the time.
Knox is a good player, a very credible red zone threat and a decent blocker in an offense where he was never obviously the first read. His contract is honestly fine.
Think people just have really unrealistic expectations because they see players like Kelce, Kittle where they are a focal point of the offense.

micromanaging McDermott at his finest I just listened to Greg Cossell and evidently the Jest offense hasnt scored a offensive td in 36 possessions?
Greg saying that is basically putting the evil on us 😂
Need a capable backup quarterback next season.

For real this is an answer in search of a question, KA isn't going to be anyone's franchise QB but out of the ones available to be JA's backup you can do a HECK of a lot worse than Kyle Allen.
