  1. Shakir just keeps catching everything thrown to him…wish I had realized he was so good 😂
  2. Yeah he doesn’t seem settled
  3. I caught flack when I said in July I was worried about our LB depth because Milano has had injuries and Bernard got hurt in his first year.
  4. Replay showed glove impacted that fumble. Something to watch for sure
  5. Agreed, and not like he is immune to other criticism, but conservative on downs like that he’s not been.
  6. But McD is conservative 😂
  7. That looked like a KC play design
  8. Uneventfuk. 4th and 3 and going for it
  9. Tua INT, Bills driving, 3rd and 2
  10. Clearly the came out wanting to get Kincaid going early
  11. Crazy how sweaty these guys were before kickoff, humidity must suck there tonight
  12. That has been the most frustrating part of the Chief playoff losses in 2021 and 2023, especially when you factor in the injuries we had to where maybe it wouldn't have come down to being that close. Does Hill get that long TD end of 4th if Tre White doesn't tear his ACL on thanksgiving? Maybe, maybe not. Does KC still win last year if even one of Milano or Bernard play, let alone both. I mean they attacked our LB's all game long who were led by a guy who was on his couch a few weeks earlier and journeyman level LB at his best anyway. Still, missing some of our best players on defense, we were a play or two away from unseating them. So you get the double frustration of the loss itself and having to take those with some critical players out every time.
  13. Just made this bet Short week, hot and humid game...the DL suffers the most. Add in Allen's hurt left hand, and I think we will see Brady look to establish the run this game against Miamis front 7 which is a mess. And I think Davis will get more touches to keep the backs fresh. And once they get down near the redzone, I would bet they give Davis some of those short yardage carries instead of Allen this week due to his hand which may make it harder for Allen to hold on to the ball and also risk further injuring it. And Allen regrets not getting Keon his first Tuddy last week when it was there, so I think this week we will see Allen run less in the redzone and let the ball fly more on drop backs and we see both our rookies get their first TD's this week. Parlay +2800 Ray Davis anytime TD Keon Coleman anytime TD
  14. He does seem to have a nose for the endzone going on right now with 3 straight games with a TD going back to the playoffs. And he could have 2 in that KC game had Dawkins held his block a half second longer.
  15. Its a bit early to be reading their obituary. Rodgers hasn't played football since 2022. Expecting him and the Jets to come out firing against probably the best team and best defense in football was a bit unrealistic. Don't get me wrong, I lovvvvvvved watching them crap the bed against the Niners, especially since my wife is a die hard Niners fan and we both can't stand Rodgers. But heading into that game, I both expected the Niners to win, and win convincingly as I was fully expecting to see a lot of rust from an offense whose old QB had not played a game since 2022. So for me, Week 1 IMHO was not necessarily a clear indicator of how good or bad they will be all season long. I am more interested to see how this team is playing in a few weeks before I think we know if they can contend or not for a playoff birth.
  16. I saw this segment as well, and thought about posting it here too. Full disclosure I used to hate him, but like you I’ve kept an eye to see what those I don’t agree with say, and some of their segments have since become more entertaining recently like Mahomes Mountain and Nicks Tiers for example. On Nick Wright - Since Mahomes has won back to back Super Bowls, he’s substantially softened on Allen as well now that he doesn’t feel Allen is a threat to Mahomes standing as the best QB in the league. Most of what led Nick to say what he has said about Allen in the past was rooted in elevating his notoriety combined with his insecurity that Allen was approaching Mahomes level in too many eyes after the 2021 playoff game. He has firmly settled into Allen is the 2nd best QB in football now, and he was only one to pick Bills to win the AFCE. As far as this segment goes, it was a really good take on Allen. Perfect example was Allen’s first rushing TD where he had Keon open on a slant and said after the game he should have thrown that for the TD instead of taking the run where he takes more risks for injury too. This season I feel like Nick has more accurate on with what he has said about the Bills and Allen, and more so and more positive than even some of his co-hosts. Don’t get me wrong, he was a total clown prior with the nonsense he would say, but now that he doesn’t have to do it to prop up his Chiefs anymore, he’s come around to being more grounded in his takes on Allen and Bills, at least recently. Bills start making some noise, Allen starts out playing Mahomes, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him revert back though. But right now, his takes have been more fair recently and he’s been more complimentary to Allen than in the past. The Mahomes Mountain and Nicks Tiers have become entertaining this year and this weeks were pretty good. Watching Wildes go at him for having the Bengals above the Pats was pretty funny too.
  17. That’s possible, but we have kept Tua and Hill in check every game against them. And for us, short week, hot and humid game…that’s hard on the DL guys. And the Fins DL is a mess, so I think we may see a game where we try and pound the rock more and also control the TOP further inhibiting the Fins offense be keeping them off the field and also keeping our DL fresher to better disrupt Tua when they are on the field.
  18. Good post as well, and I also mostly agree with this and appreciate the perspective. But, the only thing I would add is that I did not personally feel the cop was really out of line with how he approached the car or knocked on the window. I don't really know how the officer could have done anything different in that regard, he walked up to a car with dark tinted windows and driver had yet to roll his window down. What other recourse does an officer have other than to knock on his window. Then Hill rolls it down partially and just starts mouthing off not to knock on his window. And if Hill doesn't want him to knock on his window, he should have already rolled his window down after being pulled over and seeing the officer approach. I am all about deescalation, so I don't disagree with you in them needing to be trained in how to be better about that, its a serious issue in our police force in general. At the same time, cops need to make split decisions out there where the wrong one can mean they may not go home to see their families. And I think there does need to be more respect for that from people when dealing with officers. So it is hard for me to have sympathy for a entitled rich boy acting a fool, not complying and putting himself into a position to where he is making an officer have to make a decision to keep letting this go and risk the safety of themselves and fellow officers or having to escalate the situation to take back control of the that situation to insure their safety. So for me, while I do agree there were maybe less escalated options the officer could have taken, I also can not really fault him for the decision he did make given the position Hill put him either. Now if he had roughed Hill up or something, sure year that would be a real issue. But forcing Hill to comply when he refused, that for me is on Hill more than anything. The officer gave Hill plenty of time and multiple chances to avoid the escalation, Hill instead chose to remain defiant. Hahaha, don't apologize, that was funny
  19. I would grade the Hollins play and Coleman play a half grade higher than you personally, but thats just splitting hairs. The only discrepancy I have in what you are saying here is the correlation I bolded above. The correlation you are implying here that the lack volume is an indicator that the receivers were not turning in enough high quality play is where I disagree. The lack of volume was related to game flow, not tied to how well they were/weren't playing. First quarter, Bills only had 1 drive and had the ball just 2:23 seconds and they ran 4 plays. The only pass attempt they had on that play was to Mack Hollins for 14 yards and a first down, a play you already gave Hollins high praise for in your first comment in this thread where you said you majorly agreed with me on Hollins play in the first game. Then, the next play was the Josh Allen fumble where he had open receivers and made the worst offensive play of the game holding on to the ball and then fumbling. Guys were open though. Second quarter, Bills only had 1 drive before they got the ball back with a little over 2 min left in the half. And that drive was 9 plays. First play was a pass where Coleman drew a PI flag (something else that people are overlooking are the flags our receivers were able to draw Sunday too). Then it was Cook run, Cook run. Then next play he hits Knox for a big play over the middle. Then the next 4 plays are all Cook runs again. Then Josh scores on the next play on a run, but it was overturned by penalty. Then the only other drop back was the next play in which Allen got sacked on a 3rd and 19 play (well 3rd and goal from the 19) before we kicked a FG. Allen had just 2 pass attempts through the first 33 minutes of the game, not because guys were not getting open, because Cook was running so well, our defense was allowing long drives by AZ, and Allen fumbled. Allen would go on to throw 21 more times over the next 33 minutes in which 16 passes were caught by 8 other players including 2 TD's and the offense would score 31 points over that stretch. All good, I have no major qualms with your thoughts, just I don't agree that the "low volume" had anything to do with the WR's as it was entirely based on game flow in the first half.
