Miyagi-Do Karate

This is how you win games when you aren’t at your best or banged up. They played a clean second half; got points when they could get them; had a few key stops; and didn’t make any bone head plays. if I had one complaint, never go for two until you absolutely have to. We just needed to keep chipping away with points.

TBH, the coverage is there and usually very tight. I chalk it up to just some really great throws lately, and some bad luck. On that Cooper TD, Johnson had his arm between Cooper and the ball and he is still caught it. What else is he supposed to do?

Sometimes you have to gut out games when things aren’t going your way. That’s what this team is hopefully learning. That was the way to beat the jets too. Let the other team beat themselves.

Josh could Have run it in on last play.

Don’t be dumb here. No penalties, no turnovers. Gotta get at least 3.

Just hand the ball off. We can run on these guys. Gonna have to gut this one out. Just get a FG and lick your wounds at half.

Gotta get Keenum in. Josh’s elbow clearly isn’t right.

That Gilliam penalty was hilarious. Apparently you can get blown up and flail falling down and get a hold?

Just add Tre and Edmunds soon enough, and this D is dramatically better.

Exactly the kind of Brownsy play we needed to jump start this game.

We needs some Brownsy play here. This game really easily should be 14-0. Got 3 from a PR and held due to two awful drops.

What happened on that last offensive play? It almost looked like it was supposed to be a screen or a quick slant, with some quick cut blocks.

Hamlin isn’t the problem, IMO. These LBs are atrocious in coverage (Bernard, Dodson).

Dodson— woof.

Imagine how great Hines would be looking…. If we also used him on offense!

Gonna be some obvious rust here. These guys clearly didn’t practice all week.

I have only see this happen against the bills. Out corner sticks his arm in, blocks the ball, and yet it magically goes through for a catch. Literally every Jefferson catch was like that last week.

While Northeastern looks pretty bad, glad Syracuse bounced back, esp on the offensive end. Mintz getting to the rim is exciting. that said, Bennie Williams remains totally bewildering to me. I couldn’t even explain his offensive game if I tried.

But the “Buffaloes”?! Come on! That’s just idiotic! Here is the quote: "I was a Buffalo, I was ready to be a Buffalo," he told Washington reporters Thursday, per ESPN’s John Keim. "I was moving on to a new organization. I was excited. I felt wanted."

Is it just me, but it bothered me hearing McKissick talk about how he “almost went to the Buffaloes”— like he didn’t realize the team name is the Bills and the city is Buffalo. Maybe I am being too sensitive! 🤔

This is a tough one. The bills actually shut cook totally down last week… except for 1 play! they could actually stymie Chubb, or he could have over 200 yards. Just can’t get a beat on this run defense.

I remember years ago (20+ years ago) going to a Detroit symphony concert. I parked in a some lot that was basically a burned out old warehouse. Thought I would die, but that was where everyone was Parking. We all basically sprinted from our cars to the concert hall. That said, went to Detroit in 2018, and the downtown was much improved. Not sure what it looks like now though post-Covid.

haha. I can see it now. No receivers line up, and we have 4 RBs all go out and run check down routes. “your move, Mr. Allen. Your move.”

Now let’s go get Star!! 😄

seriously, insane. That said, I would argue that his one catch at the goal line was also spectacular. The ball was deflected mid air, Benford then got his hand in to deflect it again at the Point of contact, and jefferson dove down and still caught it. This was right before their failed QB sneak.
