Love Allen, Diggs & Davis. Shakir looks ready to step into a full time roll. If he is, we could have the best 1-2-3 punch in the NFL. Steelers went after Elam hard today, KC will take note. They are a HUGE test coming up for this D. KC is balanced run & pass O. But I think our D (when healthy) is better than theirs. Need to get healthy & get ready.
Have to have 2 divisions 1 AFC 1 NFC to avoid an imbalance. More teams, more spots, more players, might water down the talent & therefore the product. The flight between Berlin & LA would be a joy. Looking forward to more of those compelling 9-12 score games (thanks Denver & Indy for that one).
Wonder if there holding guys out who would play if it were a playoff game to help get them healthy for KC next week, knowing the buy is right after. If so, too bad they can't get Gabe the extra rest, but we're down too many as it is. I do worry about the cascading effect of guys being out puts more on the guys playing to have to compensate & play harder which generates more injuries. They need that buy week.
Chart as of 9/29/22 (So doesn't take into account last game. link to Twitter source below). Von is way up at the top of the chart w/ top pressure rate. Rousseau is right where the 2 lines intersect for league average on pressure rate & double team rate).

Thanks for everything BEZZZ!!! Helped start something special in Buffalo. Congrats on a nice career, really enjoyed watching him, played hard. Wishing him well in retirement.
Perhaps, if they did a better job stopping them sooner, wouldn't have needed the goal line stand & I would still have fingernails left. Do better D.
Sorry Jordan, I was kidding, you guys did awesome!!!!
Cook stats (link below):
1. Rams: 1 attempt - fumble
2. Titans: 11 attempts 53 yds (garbage time)
3. Miami: 1 attempt 3 yds. 4 catches 37 yds
4. Ravens: 1 pass attempt dropped.
Not a lot of opportunities, but got to do more w/ opportunities he gets. Very disappointing for a 2nd round pick.

NFL refs make $205,000 a year (see below) & they can't see Pats delay of game or Ravens holds. How do I get one of those jobs?

I hereby formally retract my earlier posts that:
1. McD is a moron
2. Lamar has now beaten Allen for MVP.
I humbly apologize for letting my emotions get the better of me.
