The comment is on DK, not Oliver but carry on and when Oliver starts getting sacks, he will, you can change the goal post again! Au contraire. If/When Oliver actually starts producing sacks, I'll be the first to cheer him. That's what I need to see from him, is actual game-changing sacks.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 What I learned from this game: 1) DangerRuss still is 2) When asked about his D, Pete Carroll said "what D?" 3) Goff and the Rams are All That - until they aren't. Their "clutch" gene needs to up its expression Who was it here who, when Ken Norton was announced as the new DC of Seattle, said "this is how you waste Russ Wilson's best years?" Man, that tackling. Seattle wants to go anywhere but home, they better fix it fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I heard some ridiculous stat, Russell Wilson’s last 19 games... he has 44 TDs and 4 ints. That’s a QB. That’s a man who knows how to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had those three: 1 AJ Brown 2 DK Metcalf 3 Marquise Brown And I didn't have any of them as first rounders. I had them all as high 2nd rounders. I never suggested that any of the 3 of them couldn't play but to pick any of them at #9 would have been absurd. That’s fine. The real issue was trading up for a projected guard in round 2 when Metcalf, Brown, McLaurin et al were available. We’ll get to see AJ Brown up close this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real issue was trading up for a projected guard in round 2 when Metcalf, Brown, McLaurin et al were available. We’ll get to see AJ Brown up close this weekend. I had the exact same grade on AJ Brown and Cody Ford. I'd have been fine with picking AJ Brown there, I'd have even been fine with Metcalf there even if he wasn't the top ranked player on my board. I repeat again that I had no issue with anyone who wanted to pick Metcalf in round 2. My issue is purely with anyone who wanted top spend a top 10 pick on him. I said before the draft he was touch and go to be taken in round one when the consensus was he was a definite first rounder. I didn't share the shock and amazement that he slipped to where he did. I can see the reasoning. But I would not have been against the Bills taking him or AJ at their pick. I think AJ is more complete but less explosive (I see Robert Woods to some extent) and Metcalf is explosive but has some holes. There wasn't a true #1 WR in the class so it was always pick your poison. I think Metcalf landed in a perfect spot in Seattle because they don't ask their receivers to run a really complex or complicated route tree.

Where do you people get this stuff? I wrote: 3) Goff and the Rams are All That - until they aren't. Their "clutch" gene needs to up its expression How do you translate this to "So Goff is responsible for the missed FG?" I mean, I'm legit curious - what thought process goes through one's mind when one reads a sentence that begins "Goff AND THE RAMS are All That - until they aren't", and decide 1) it means the writer believes Goff is responsible for everything - the AND THE RAMS part of the sentence was just there as filler, and didn't really mean anything like, oh, maybe spreading responsibility around the team? Dropped passes and etc? 2) therefore the writer believes Goff is responsible for the missed field goal You then go on to "what else was he supposed to do?" which is apparently intended as rhetorical, but is an addressable question What else is Goff AND THE RAMS supposed to do - Oh, kinda like other teams who have lost a game by a missed FG, maybe play differently all around so the game doesn't turn on a missed FG at the end?

It was a fair question.If Zeurlein makes the kick, are you questioning Goff’s “clutch gene”? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a much better QB now than the guy who won a Superbowl. This Seattle team has a legit championship shot despite being nowhere near their SB team in any other facets. Wilson is now on that level where the whole team runs through him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
