  1. 49ers don't look so tough lately
  2. Aside from Diggs, Dorsey is not getting the most out of the offensive players. Cook looks like a good RB who is a real weapon Kincaid is finally starting to get more involved, but he should be able to do more than catch passes in the flat and get gang tackled for a 4 yard gain. Gabe Davis is a decent WR who we should be getting more out of. Gabe has made many plays in the past. He's better than 1 memorable play per game. We're FINALLY seeing Harty and Sherfield being used a little bit. It's 7 games in. Why weren't these free agent signings being utilized right away? That's inexcusable. Knox is practically invisible, but we have seen him make plays before, which is why he has that contract. What happened to him? I get he has had some drops, but that has been the case his whole career. The guy can make plays, and has, or you wouldn't have re-signed him. The OL is fine as NFL OL go. I would say they are at least an average NFL OL, and play above average here and there. You can work with that. Then there's the QB. No running, no real deep shots. What exactly is the plan? This team needs an experienced coach as the OC. Everyone can be buddies while they celebrate a SB win.
  3. To me, it now seems clear that something is off with him. At first, I would dismiss it as me projecting my own frustrations as a fan of the team, but something is definitely different, and not in a good way. It could also be that it's less about Allen personally and more something larger going on with the team behind the scenes. Maybe the issues with Diggs are another hint at that, who knows. A couple of recent examples: 1. The biggest indicator of a real issue for me: The "same **** different day" comment after the week 1 loss to the Jets this year. To me, that comment revealed something deeper going on, since it was week 1 and that phrase came to his mind in that moment. It was 1 game, so why "same ****" ? If he was QB of the Chargers I would get that, but he and the team have had a lot of success lately. Can you imagine Mahomes saying that after the Week 1 loss at home to the Lions? That's my point. Other than Mahomes and Burrow, Allen has done a lot of winning, so what's the reason for a comment like that? An optimistic person would say no Josh, that was different **** than we're used to, not the same. 2. After the Giants game Allen seemed miserable and borderline rude to Melissa Stark who does the SNF "talk with the winners" thing at the end of the game. The way he said "let's go home" at the end of the interview was really strange. Dude, you just won the damn game! Granted, it was ugly but good lord. In fact, I think that's what I see the most with Allen this season. He just looks, sounds, and seems miserable. He's been much more combative with interviewers, calling out the "armchair critics" and just generally not being the smiling, happy go lucky ball of energy that he was in previous seasons. I do wonder if McDermott is wearing on these guys. Every time the Bills have a tough game Florio puts that "Jenga tower" analogy out there, and even though I have nothing but disdain for him generally that does worry me a bit. Like he knows something and is being cute about it. He did it AGAIN today. It's hard to dismiss when it actually feels like a good analogy.
  4. If you're a Colts fan this morning is all about how you were straight up robbed by the refs yesterday. 3 turnovers taken away. they won the game twice at the end only to have the refs step in. Eventually the other team will score when they get chance after chance, then the ball put at the 1 just for good measure. Late in the game, either the call gets made and then it's basically a fait accompli because there will be another and another call on the defense if needed or it just never happens but could. It's like you get storyline A or B. In A the defense gets the illegal contact to extend a drive or take away a turnover. Then a few plays later is defensive holding or hands to the face. Then the clincher: PI in the endzone. At that point it's up to the offense to score though.
  5. Game is far from over with the way Miami can score. One slipup in coverage and it's 7
  6. Gainwell by name Gain VERY well by reputation
  7. I'm also a huge fan of the Eagles throwbacks
  8. Sounded good at the time...
  9. Dolphins are hard enough to stop without throwing pick 6's
  10. Lol I guess karma said it's time for a makeup call
  11. 17-3 was no big deal with Miami. A few track plays and it's a ballgame
  12. Sadly those types of coaches hang around forever because they have a decent win/loss record but always come up short in the playoffs.
  13. That's one of the biggest problems. 1/2 your salary cap is on IR or playing 3 snaps a game.
  14. 3 turnovers negated by the refs stepping in
  15. Von Miller is signed for like 15 years for big $ and who knows if he'll ever be back to form.
  16. Most of the biggest contracts are long term for huge $ and for injured or ancient players or both. No easy way out of those. Cap is a huge problem.
  17. Every time I see the flag icon my blood pressure rises. It's gotten to the point where I'll be doing yardwork on a Saturday and hear that there's a penalty in the Peewee game at the school next door and I'm like OH COME ON!
  18. Refs just gave the game to the Browns. Overturned a turnover for a tricky tack Illegal contact Then a terrible PI in the end zone
  19. Warmer greeting for Belichick than Daboll
  20. Several weeks in a row of uninspired play. You cannot go entire halfs without scoring a TD when your entire defense is injured
  21. This is what happens when your offense takes entire halfs off
  22. Offense can't play 1 half of football
