  1. I'm encouraged that we've run the ball exceedingly well in 2 of the last 4 games. That phase of our game is veering toward respectability. I like Josh hitting 400 yards but other games like this where he only has to throw 24 times are welcome too.
  2. Wow. Now Nagy is going to have to do a double super pep talk.
  3. I predict that everyone calling Moss average or a #2 back is going to feel silly about it a year from now.
  4. Mostert looked slow against the Rams today but he has 8 more days to rest that ankle.
  5. Klein is sorta morphing into that Lorax role, in my opinion, including being put on ice skates occasionally by a RB in space which you can live with for all the TFL and contain.
  6. I think we should consider permanently replacing John Brown with Klein. It goes without saying that Milano will be driven out to the country and shot.
  7. His kickoff today with the holder traveled about 85-90 yards in the air. I'm wondering exactly how long of a GWFG he'd be allowed to try. Those kicks in Arizona from 55+ were crossing the crossbar about 3/4 up the uprights too.
  8. One of those replays that mysteriously got lost. From what I saw White dragged Herbert down by the ankles from behind as Herbert was running away which is absolutely not the same as illegally hitting the QB low in the pocket.
  9. Kinda interesting to me how the Bills and Bears are linked as being the two teams that most notably passed on Mahomes but our yield was Tre and Josh and theirs was Trubisky.
  10. What I always wonder is if there's some sort of secret memo sent out about which QBs to protect and which to not, or if it's mostly just the refs' implicit bias like the same way that good hitters get smaller strike zones.
  11. Line seems about right. They're getting healthier but Mullens is backup caliber and Kittle missing is still enormous.
  12. Remember when the Bears were 5-1? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
  13. We were really the first team to make him look normal.
  14. Part of that is because watching one of their games feels like it takes 12 hours.
  15. Bass has gone from liability to asset in no time flat. Not only the two clutch kicks today but he consistently put the ball where he wanted to on kickoffs and typically put the Chargers around the 20 yard line.
  16. I think the Browns are the worst AFC team that will make the playoffs this year.
  17. What I don't get is coaches who make mind-numbingly stupid decisions like how the Chargers ran it on the 2 yard line with 20 seconds left and no timeouts needing two scores. Like, 1,000 out of 1,000 casual fans knew that was wrong. How does it happen?
  18. He was rushing and diving at pylons after that. He's fine. He NEEDS to stop hero ball in all but desperate situations though.
  19. It's moments like that where I'm glad I don't have kids yet. I don't know how I would have explained that to them.
  20. As far as I can tell he's never been used as a blitz specialist, more as a run thumper. Maximum credit to Leslie Frazier for understanding Klein's potential in getting after the QB.
  21. Tyreek Hill is dragging my team to a first round playoff bye in fantasy all by himself this season.
  22. The Chiefs are just an absolute juggernaut and will be for a long time.
  23. I think people have to be themselves though. He's a family and love dude so if he starts hurling chairs around and sticking fingers in players faces it would seem fake. So far his philosophy is a well above .500 one so it is what it is.
  24. One thing that's becoming clear - we had an awesome draft.
