    McDermott has earned the right

    I think he took some of his own "growth mindset" medicine, did some self-scouting, and made some changes/improvements during the bye that have helped.  His end-of-close-game mindset on both sides of the ball is WAY better - we're being way more aggressive.  Defensively we're pressuring opposing QBs into mistakes rather than being passive and hoping they don't break a big play.  Offensively we're not just trying to run out the clock.  His time-out usage seems better.

    Seemed like he landed on the ball and looked like a situation where you get the wind knocked out of you from many other times I have seen it happen...not sure tho.

    As I rewatch the 4th quarter, I think he actually hurt it on the play before the pick.  This was the one where he and Tyreek went up and Rapp broke it up.  It appeared that Rapp's left knee hit Tyreek's right knee hard.  Tyreek limped off after that, and Rapp appears to be a little gimpy but obviously stayed in.

    Weird playoff scheduling. All 3 AFC games before any NFC games

    Thank god we avoided the peacock game lol. Imagine leading the division for like 15 straight weeks only to cough it up and get relegated to some obscure streaming service for your playoff game 

    When they announced the schedule, I was sure last night would end in a tie to put us in that game.

    And a Monday nighter?!? Weird.

    Can you imagine if the winner of that game then gets to play the following Saturday?  Brutal.

    Much like 2021, an OT loss gonna spring us into a win streak and the playoffs

    In 2021, the OT loss to the Bucs was our final regular season loss after a 3-5 lull.  This year the Philly OT loss also put us at 3-5 over the 8 game span and we haven't lost since.

     

    Some things I've taken notice of the last 2 weeks as opposed to earlier in the season which give me hope:

    1) Way more physical on both sides of the ball.  I felt like we got pushed around by Cinci in last year's playoff loss, and similarly against Jacksonville and others this year.  We're getting downright nasty out there now.
    2) As was discussed here and everywhere, I've seen improvement from McDermott.  Defense is way more aggressive.  And we seem to have turned a corner as far as making halftime adjustments for us and reacting to halftime adjustments from our opponents.  Also, I see a better use of timeouts.
    3) Our new offensive coordinator does not seem to have tendencies yet.  Dorsey was a run on first, throw on 2nd and long and 3rd and long guy.  He'd use the run to set up the pass and once the pass was established, not much more running.  Brady is not set in anything, and obviously is willing to commit to the run.

    Maybe there'll be an April Wine tour?  Trooper?

    Miles Goodwyn, front man with April Wine, passed away last week :(
