They made an announcement at the stadium that it was thrown after the snap and thats why the play stood. They never showed a video though.

Factor in that the Rams have better WRs and better offensive coach. Plus Allen has been mostly trending up since last year. In the two games since the Pats when Im sure Josh and Daboll had to have a reckoning about his reckless style of play Josh has gone: 67%, 104.9 rating, 422 yards, 4 TDs, 1 int, 7.2 Y/A, 59 yards rushing, 1 turnover

This is what makes me wary too. The Pats are essentially cutting him and they RARELY let guys walk unless they know theyre cooked. Im suspicuous that something is going on which makes me hesitant to want to sign him.

Im much more worried about the non-designed runs. JA diving for firsts or exposing himself trying to run for a first down. Designed runs have blockers out in front but when Josh free lances is when he takes the biggest hits.

Not even close to the same thing. Youre exposing yourself by comparing this trade to the Benjamin trade.

It was on at the bar I was at, with all of the other games. But Im going to need more than one good game to claim that he is something more than a straight line WR. Even in the other game against the Rams one of his two catches is a straight run to the endzone from the left side: https://www.seahawks.com/video/2019-week-5-russell-wilson-hits-dk-metcalf-in-stride-for-40-yard-touchdown

That was through the first month of the season. He is still mostly a N-S runner.

Metcalf plays with Russell Wilson and is mostly a straight line runner. Allen cannot hit a deep ball to save his life, it is not that we dont have the WR to do it. Metcalf would be a waste in this offense right now. We need crisp route runners that get separation quickly like Cole and Brown that Allen can hit in his sweet spot of 1-15 yards downfield.

Here is an awful post.

My hope for week 17 is that we either have the WC (or division somehow) locked up so it wont matter much even if we lose. Because the Jets, with Darnold are not an easy out and I know they would LOVE to play spoilers for us in the game if they get a chance.

We move the ball but dont score because of bad sacks and turnovers. Josh needs to do a better job of that, Tennessee was a great step in the right direction with the slides and throw aways but it still didnt lead to points. When we get start scoring more ill believe we win more than 9 games.

Going with me 5 month old kid, wife, mom, dad, brother, Sister and their families. Thanksgiving is gonna be a bit different this year! We are all flying down on Tuesday. So excited.

uhhhh Frank Gore would like a word.

I mostly agree with this. We arent missing a new shiny WR or something although it wouldnt hurt, we just have our drives stalled for various reason, mostly from Josh honestly either taking bad sacks, turnovers or turnover on downs. I also think we lack the big splash play, partly cause Josh is awful at deep balls. Every drive is this methodical 5+ minute drives. Thats hard for offenses to string together. Thats why I like this team. Its not 3-and-out after 3-and-out where I feel like we have no chance at scoring. I think the scores will come, but I would appreciate if they were sooner rather than later.

opposing kickers have made 50% of all kicks, FG and PATs. That is astounding. Also not a stat that will continue. We need to score more on offense.

it was bizarre we were able to rattle off multiple 10+ yard runs in a time when they knew we were running. The only thing they couldnt do was let us get first downs and we werent gonna pass and they just let us do it.

Yikes, Patriots SB chances at 30% seems high, but I get it. My pipe dream is that the Pats lose 1-2 against the Chiefs/Texans and we go into week 16 with a game to decide the division which we win... And we lose the next week to the Jets and end up the 5 seed afterall.

I just dont think this is the way Daboll and McBeane want to build the offense. If all we were missing was a talented RB to compliment Gore and SIngletary while also being able to catch when needed we never would have gotten rid of McCoy. We would look pretty dumb IMO to cut Shady and then trade for Gordon. Of course Gordon is younger but for the 1-year fill in role he likely wouldnt be that much of an upgrade over McCoy, certainly not enough to tip the scales enough to make as a SB contender.

He looked AWFUL against us in the preseason. Im actually surprised he is playing well because of that but good for him.

I think the best we can hope for is the Big Ben/Russell Wilson (and Brady actually) path towards franchise QB for Josh. Limit his exposure but let him manage the game now with a stout defense and then with experience he will develop into a more capable QB. The tools are there, its very obvious. Yesterday was a step in that direction. The lack of deep threat is Josh's own doing. He needs to work on accuracy there this entire bye week.

Picked up by the Jets

Davis Webb?

I think youre misremembering honestly. What deep ball did he ever hit on last year except for the Foster one against the Jags (which was still kind of a crossing route). The only deep ball I can remember hit completing was to Zay against the Chargers but that was 5-10 yards under thrown still. IMO he has never been good at deep balls, people just want him to be because of his arm. But I could be mis-remembering too.

Except the titles will be "Serious Question".
