Sierra Foothills

And Indy has entered FG territory...

You don't say...

Regardless of the outcome of this game, I'd much rather play the Colts than the Texans or Steelers. Tell it to the sportswriters that vote on the award.

Dude, read for God's sake. You made him repeat himself (he already said St. Joes' and scrimmage) and then you doubt the veracity of his story? I thought Amherst was a good school...

Interestingly, Tua has not played in a playoff game in his 4 NFL seasons. Yes, any QB would be ecstatic to have wideouts like Hill and Waddle... and a running attack like the Dolphins. Those things are a platform for QB success. I wouldn't be surprised if Waddle and Mostert played against the Bills but regardless we have a big advantage on the injury report.

James Harrison agrees with you. Speaking of stats, this season Flacco has 8 ints and 4 fumbles in 5 games.

Problem with Tryon is he’s only played 12 games. I think Trent has missed games too.

But... the game isn't until Sunday...

I wonder if we'll see Taylor Swift...

You can see where Josh has his jacket draped over his left shoulder to keep it warm when he's on the sidelines. The injury has messed with his mechanics... he's been uncharacteristically inaccurate. After Brady made the halftime adjustment, Josh was 8-10 in the second half.

I've commented on how Josh's left shoulder injury has affected his mechanics and his throwing. It's pretty obvious. Brady made a nice second half adjustment by going to a horizontal passing game with an emphasis on more stationary targets, particularly over the middle. Josh was more effective after that change.

As against the Chargers last week I was completely expecting an ugly win. As @nucci would put it, today was the Patriots' Super Bowl.

It's close. Both Hamlin and Flacco have played 5 games. But Hamlin has zero turnovers and Flacco has 8 INTs and 4 fumbles so I give it to Hamlin... zero turnovers.

After the week Mayfield is having, I think Damar noses back ahead of him for Comeback Player. Particularly in light of Damar making no errors today.

I love having big rangy CBs like Rasul and Benford. It’s like the Bills are starting 2 Charles Tillmans.

Jamming good with Weird and Gilly

Interestingly the Referee is Brad Allen and he's widely considered to be one of the top 2-3 referees in the league.

Exactly. He did the math in his head and knew that his defense was fading fast. This was his best chance for the win.

There was actually more than one foul on that play. The Detroit O really blew that one.

Which is why McVay traded for Stafford. Really an excellent football game but Goff couldn't make it better.

Dan Campbell is like Cowher on steroids.

All I know is that he's started 10 of 15 games. I don't know if he's been starting more or less lately. Lamb is a lot more explosive than Diggs. The intensity level on both sides is very high. The players are going hard. Plus it's the Cowboys. They're a bit soft against the run.

Limeaid, Sorry for being a smartass... I understood your story the first time. Just trying to blow off some steam and have a little fun this weekend. Kudos for all you've done and all you do. 👍

You installed a new heart in your former coworker?

Yes, the decision to severe the relationship with Russ goes beyond finances. "This is the kind of player Payton wants at quarterback. Someone who has the ability to know his offense on a molecular level — calls, checks, route concepts, blocking, schedule, construction of the plan, etc. — then the focus to carry it all out with the repetitive efficiency of a Xerox machine. This is how Kyle Shanahan wants his offense. It’s how Sean McVay wants his offense. And it’s definitely how Payton wants his offense. When a quarterback isn’t getting that job done in an overwhelmingly high percentile of his drops, the clock begins ticking on his tenure. It’s how Jared Goff became Matthew Stafford. It’s how Jimmy Garoppolo became Trey Lance and Lance became Brock Purdy. And now it’s how Russell Wilson will become someone else manning the controls in Denver."
