Miyagi-Do Karate

in the past, we had the players and the style on O where if we were inconsistent, we could cover over it with some big splash plays. Not anymore. We have to execute all the little stuff at a high level with the style of offense they now want to play.

Thinking about this more, the roster has sort of been built because of how defenses have been playing us for several years— stop all big plays. We are now built to pound the rock and win with ball control and defense. It’s actually a winning formula, but it depends on a high level of execution and patience. We can’t commit penalties, be behind the sticks, and commit turnovers. We have to be patient and innovative with the run game and using the RBs and TE’s in the passing game. Today, it was a mess because of the sloppy execution and game script.

that is a bit of a misleading stat if meant to suggest that he wasn’t under pressure. 3.53 seconds because he was back there dodging 20 tackles and scrambling for someone to get open.

an absolute bizarre move.

Bernard is possibly their worst defensive player. I am hoping it’s because he is playing through some injuries.

This team wins and loses together. Really need all three phases to click in order to play winning football.

Sort of a jeckyl and Hyde kind of team we have this year. Never know who is going to show up and who will lay an egg. All phases need to be on for us to win, and we have to always be “on schedule” on O. Tough to win that way.

Could you theoretically challenge that waddle actually touched Hairston and so he was down before the illegal block? Or would the illegal block still stand?

I would prefer just a pitch to cook, and see what happens. Better odds than what we scheme up usually.

Kind of bad luck there. Didn’t think Shakir saw Fitzpatrick, otherwise could have dove a little harder there.

the team isn’t built on offense for these quick comebacks.

Is this a joke?

I love how it’s pouring rain now too. When it’s raining….

Time for some Hero Ball!!

honestly, that is also on Josh. The timing and air under those back shoulders always seem way off.

Don’t get the game plan. We should be running more double TE routes. Throw to the TEs and RBs. Our receivers aren’t going to beat their corners.

Just jumping in now. Yeesh.

it’s not you. The media narrative about these players around the trade deadline seems to overinflate everyone’s value. imagine if a team traded a 1st for waddle before the season began. We all would be laughing about it.

I have a feeling the jets would have dealt Williams to us, but I doubt we were offering what the cowboys gave them. I think the dolphins weren’t going to trade with us at all.

There’s a warm spot waiting for him on the Bills IR.

Almost feel Bad for the Jax players. That team has no fans to begin with, and plays half their games in Europe. Now, During the 2027 season, I guarantee you that there will be like 80/20 visiting team fans for all of their “home” Orlando games.

Yeah, the red zone woes were directly attributable to Josh trying to force it to his receivers down field. How about dumping it down to Knox for 7 yards? A play that was there all game!

That’s the thing. It makes no sense to attack the patriots at boundary corner. The same is true of the chiefs. That’s what made our game against New England so maddening. The way to attack them is getting the TEs and RBs involved in the passing game. Their LBs can’t cover our TEs or RBs. I thought for sure Ty Johnson would have like 10 catches, and he had zero targets!

agreed! I was thinking about watching this game, but the 10 Seconds to get to prime pretty much killed any chance for me too!

I forgot about that! This seems like a very AFC West thing to do!
