We are the best team in the NFL on 3rd downs over the past season plus this year(20 games-17 last year and 3 this year) converting over 50% of them...and I believe were 2nd the year before that in the high 40% range.

Same with Baltimore and when it happens over and over again every year you have to start looking at their training methods versus teams like the Bills who lead the NFL by a mile in fewest man games lost to injury since McD has been here and have been top 5 every year in that category. You CAN prevent injuries to some degree, and especially let minor issues heal and not turn into major ones. Players who left the Ravens have gone off on how bad their training was there and how it set them up for injuries...they had 7!!! starters out yesterday.

Until he gets injured for the year like always too.

T-Swift seemed pretty excited to be with a muscular, good looking athlete versus a scrawny, pale looking ghost like she usually ends up with. A reminder to all the single men out there...your body can do a lot of free talking with women for you if you take care of it and keep it looking good.

Bills have the lowest blitz percentage and the highest sack rate, by a wide margin. That should be terrifying for opposing offenses. I find it hard to believe that the Bills DLine isn't getting held at all with them being so dominant rushing the passer.

A lot of deep crossers end up near the sideline so the receiver takes a few steps and is OOB. A lot of routes are stop and comebacks which are not going to get a lot of YAC. He doesn't throw as many checkdowns to backs who gain 10-15 yards after the catch or screens where they are behind the LOS so they have lots of space to run. The offense is designed differently and relies more on Allen using his arm to gain those extra 5-6 yards versus the receivers running the extra 5 or 6 yards. Unsure why some people continuously keep harping on this as if there is something wrong. Nothing is wrong, it's just an offense that isn't designed to rack up huge YAC numbers. Allen hit Davis in stride 35 yards downfield in the corner of the endzone yesterday but got 0 YAC yards. Would it have made you feel better if his arm was weaker and he hit him at the 12 yard line and he picked up 10 YAC yards to the 2 before being shoved out of bounds and then they had to settle for a FG? Essentially...stop trying to manufacture problems that aren't actually problems.

Raiders only running 39 plays kind of helped lower the numbers tho as well...

Howell was to blame tho, on that White INT. Even on the broadcast the color commentator said that was a young QB mistake...that once Tre kept outside leverage on the route McLaurin was running Howell should have immediately moved off him and looked elsewhere because that route was dead at that point in terms of where you want to go with the ball and that the coverage dictated it go elsewhere. Said that it made it too easy for White to jump the route with that positioning, which is ultimately what happened.

Disrupt Tua's first read. Disguise coverages and make him think he has someone open that isn't really open.

Pretty sure they shower first?

That reminded me of one of those "Gold Rip" audibles that Allen used to call to John Brown under Daboll all the time...except those used to go for like 20+ yards most times

9 sacks. 9.

Moss has been playing well for Indy. I am happy for him.

Last time Allen faced a "great" Fangio defense he put up 48 in Denver on them and had Fangio throwing his hands up on the sidelines cause he couldn't stop him.

3 games into his career Bernard had a day Edmunds could only dream of. Did we ever think Edmunds was the best player on the field by a mile in any game in the 5 years he was here?

Says showers in afternoon, meaning it will be spotty or not at all even. Still could change to all rain tho.

There was a Cover 1 podcast that I was listening to while walking the other day...can't find it now that I have searched for it.

Well...participate doesn't mean fully...some will likely be limited participants I am assuming...will know exactly how promising based on the final injury report.

Yeah, he wasn't lying about that...probably was in one of those endless winter stretches where you don't see the sun for weeks on end here.

how has 3/4 of a thread about something important(for a change, unlike 80% of the nonsense threads started here) turned into a f'ing Bill Murray and colored drink thread?? Can we please stay on topic here to at least some degree?

Matt Milano was heard singing through sniffles "You don't bring me flowers...anymore..."

I like Morris, dude has some surprising athleticism

game was boring as hell, but so glad I woke up right on cue to see Andrew Luck coming on dressed in his Civil war outfit post game 😂

Bills still clowning I see 😂 Damien Harris: "What's red and bad for your teeth?" Jimbo Cook: "I don't know..." DH: "A brick."
