  1. Yup and Higgins was downgraded to our before kickoff Oh wow...I didn't think he was...my bad
  2. That looked like a Dorsey playcall for the Cards...just why??
  3. Bills starting to feel it on both sides... Playing with aggression on D and not letting Murray get comfortable in the locker now.
  4. Von Miller looking like Nostradamus right now about Rousseau. 3rd sack of the game
  5. Fins and Bengals both losing... No surprise on Bengals...Burrow routinely looks like hot garbage for the first 3-4 weeks every year, then gets En Fuego... Also doesn't help he is missing both Higgins and Chase today
  6. Samuel was wide open and Allen was staring at him on the play he got sacked and fumbled on the first drive
  7. I mean we haven't even looked competent on D. Arizona is doing whatever they want. Looks like a repeat of the Chiefs playoffs game
  8. I expected the D to need some time to gel this year with all the new pieces but this is ridiculous. Granted Taron Johnson is the one piece we couldn't lose and once again a defensive player goes out early in the game
  9. Does McD take over play calling in the 2nd half?
  10. This is embarrassing...Babich getting schooled
  11. Hahaha that is hilarious!
  12. Nobody ever had 4 straight 40+ TD seasons before last season either.
  13. Allen can still throw deep in this...Murray not so much probably
  14. Why the hell is Bishop inactive??
  15. ACL is intact and no ankle issues, what else are you suggesting? So now you are claiming the team is lying?
  16. Well, that's about as good as they could have hoped for...looked far worse as he was rolling around screaming on the ground last night. https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/jordan-love-update-no-acl-tear-01j76j5ym3gf
  17. NFL has been hesitant to go into Canada due to the CFL
  18. That's true but the difference between the 25 and 30 is likely very small.
  19. squib kick it into the endzone...if the team takes a TB they only get it at the 20.
  20. Neither did kicking touchbacks last year...nothing is going to develop...teams are going to randomly try it until they get burnt once and say F that, it isn't worth it and continue kicking TBs. Just like they did with kicking short at times last year strategically. The NFL did it to themselves by not either increasing the penalty for TBs or moving the kickoff back so it would be harder to kick TBs. IMO, they don't want kickoffs and did all these changes for the "illusion" that they want to bring them back but they really don't.
  21. The strategy is to kick the ball out of the endzone and take the known versus the unknown, as multiple coaches and ST coaches have said.
  22. Wiser than potentially giving up long returns to save 5 yards.
  23. I watched the Bills preseason game against Carolina in Rotterdam 😂
  24. There is almost no penalty for teams kicking touchbacks. If they really wanted to prevent touchbacks they either needed to move the kickoff back to the 20 like it used to be or up the penalty so it would be teams starting at the 35 or 40 instead of the 30. There is virtually no reason for a team to not kick the ball thru the endzone right now, especially since they have no idea how kick coverage will be on these plays over a large sample size during the season. An extra 5 yards, wow...big deal. The NFL made all these changes but were almost pointless due to not really penalizing the team for TBs or moving the ball father back on kickoff so that a TB would be much harder, which IMO is exactly what they wanted...give the "illusion" they were bringing kickoffs back into play but leave it so that kicking a TB is still going to be far and away the most likely outcome. Which is no surprise since that's what they do with lots of things...give the illusion they care for public image, but really don't...player safety, retired players, concussions, field playing surfaces, etc...
