Yep. Best 1 tech DT gone, best LB gone, best CB gone. It is not wrong to say that hurt a ton in the short term. But the additions of Douglas and Joseph along with the unexpected turnaround by Dodson have more than helped to steady the ship.

Any QB worth his salt would say he needs to make a better throw in that situation. But QBs make those throws all the time. Minshew missed. Simple as that. It was a poor throw, not a poor decision because the receiver found the open area in the zone and that’s where the ball is supposed to go.

So QBs who throw to open spaces in zones are making unacceptable throws? We see that multiple times a game by QBs good and bad every week. Granted, the throw lacked a finer touch but it was a good attempt nonetheless. The only unacceptable aspect of the play was Kazee’s criminal lack of self control.

Please allow me to settle it. Thurman = best since OJ, with apologies to Joe Cribbs Cook = best since Thurman, with apologies to Fred Jackson and Shady McCoy

Are you at all familiar with the concept of “the journey?”

Not to toot my own horn, but I predicted his HOF career early in his rookie year. I was dead serious and took some ribbing as a result. And yeah, these are the are the good old days so soak it in indeed.

17 games.

It really is as simple as that. We are either good enough or we are not.

I agree with everything here except perhaps the point about OJ not being a patient runner, the implication being that he wasn’t good at setting up his blocks and nothing could be further from the truth.

I’d rather Baltimore got home field than KC. But Baltimore losing would mean their game against Miami will be important, so there’s thst.

Yep. I’ve never seen a running back with the kind of elusiveness OJ possessed, let alone combined with his world class speed. At training camp up at Niagara U back in the day, he was time in a sub 4.3 with a stop watch. Crazy stuff at the time, but when you consider he was part of a world record holding 440 relay team in college, it’s really not that surprising.

He was fine as a receiver, but simply wasn’t utilized as such very often. Most of the great running backs in that era weren’t really utilized as such. He had a decent YPR average when he was here though. Better than Thurman’s for what it’s worth. I find these comparisons absurd though. OJ was a legit threat to score from anywhere on the field on every play. If TT had OJ’s world class speed, he would have been, too. But he didn’t and that’s why we never thought TT was gonna break off 80 yard runs with regularity. Whereas we always had that feeling with OJ. You literally felt it in your gut on every run.

All I saw was being nervous against the Chargers because it’s hard to win four straight. Thanks for the clarification.

It would be three straight, but who’s counting. 😄

Yes, if we both finish 11-6, we win the division due to the head to head tie beeaker.

Hats off to Kromer. He had answers all day for the light box.

You’d think people would know better.

Worked to near perfection against the Phins when we beat them earlier this season. McD came up with a great scheme that day, one that Miami’s McD complimented him on after the game. I don’t understand why we haven’t seen more of it since.

I really wish we had Daquan to pair him with. Damn.

I won’t be surprised if they lose out.

Add “drama queen” to the list of adjectives used in describing Hill.

I believe they’re tied at three apiece as Mahomes won in Buffalo in 2020.
