  1. As was said earlier, Mahomes faking like he’s going to run out of bounds, but then twinkle-toeing up the sideline is far worse than Josh not sliding in the open field when everyone expects him to.
  2. Von has flashed once or twice late in the past few games. He’s just nowhere around when we need him earlier. KC has very weak tackles, so hopefully Von, AJE, Groot, and Floyd can FEAST. DTs have to stop Patty from stepping up and running up the middle.
  3. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I always thought the high ankle sprain was when the foot bends in the opposite direction, ie someone lands on the outside ankle and the foot bends outward. A low ankle sprain, the most common, is when the foot bends inward. I just thought he probably had a severe sprain until everyone started talking about broken fibula this and that.
  4. The Shakir TD because the offense had kinda been lulled to sleep and there was an uneasiness after getting outscored 17-3. Once he scored I could exhale.
  5. Happened when I was 21, but you’re right I didn’t have an NFL staff to help me through!
  6. If it is a bad ankle sprain like I thought it was at the time, I’d guess that Bernard is out for a minimum the next two games. He’ll have a chance to play in the Super Bowl.
  7. My ankle bent the same way as Bernard’s, with about the same force, but didn’t slam onto the ground. Took me about 4 weeks to recover. The swelling was epic.
  8. Araiza has at least held for FGs throughout training camp, no other punter has with this unit.
  9. It wasn’t a fake slide. I think everyone anticipated a slide which is why he was able to run free. Make no mistake though, he didn’t pull a Pickett.
  10. The way his ankle bent reminded me of a very bad sprain I had while playing basketball, but mine happened while shuffling sideways, my leg didn’t slam into the ground, so it may be a fracture.
  11. If Knox catches that gimme pass, Bernard may have never gotten hurt.
  12. Outscored 17-3. Offense has went into a shell, defense has too many injuries.
  13. I really thought Brady was going to run it on 2nd and 7 which would’ve got us to the 2 min warning. Whole game changed from that point.
  14. You know the Chiefs fans are happy that Bills are dropping like flies.
  15. Weve got a few contracts on this team that need purging.
  16. I’d go for it before punting from 35 yards in.
  17. Punt from the 32 yard line? No way.
  18. A lot of the newer stuff can be described this way, but not the older songs when rapper’s couldn’t just mumble their way through a beat.
  19. I get the outrage over giving someone a job because of their skin color. That shouldn’t happen, ever. I DON’T get the outrage over simply giving a minority an interview because of his skin color. If they feel they’re being used or not taken seriously, they can turn the interview down. Don’t feel angry or insulted for them. That’s not your place.
  20. What one perceives as a problem, another perceives as an opportunity. Their skin color grants them an interview, nothing more. What they can take away from that interview is experience… and if they’re lucky, a job. To your second point, an organization doesn’t always know what it’s looking for, it’s the old adage “I’ll know it when I see it.” Going back to Tomlin, you could argue the Steelers didn’t have serious interest in hiring him when they scheduled the interview, but Tomlin blew them away and so he got the job. It’s only insulting if an individual allows it to be. Do you suffer from the rule in some way?
  21. Agree with the bolded, but it does open opportunities for minorities that otherwise wouldn’t have been there. The opportunity to interview for a coveted HC position. Nothing more, nothing less. I believe Tomlin was a beneficiary of the Rooney Rule and the Steelers had said without the rule in place he likely wouldn’t have even been interviewed (if it wasn’t Tomlin and the Steeler’s comments, someone correct me on this). Minorities have long lagged behind others when it comes to opportunities for advancement, so I can’t poo poo the rule.
  22. Yeah because if I was a fan of the opposing team I’d be throwing them to get a penalty on the Bills.
  23. Kudos to them for drafting first round replacements in every case, but they’ve beaten the odds twice in terms of hitting on a franchise QB. Those guys are rare, there are way more busts and duds than superstars at that position, but don’t tell that to the Packers. They’re due a drought.
  24. There’s not a fanbase more spoiled than the Packers. To go from Brett Favre, to Aaron Rodgers, to Jordan Love…
