I agree, Richardson was nowhere near a top 10 talent IMO.

I said that elsewhere two weeks ago. That win over Green Bay in 2003 and arguably beating the Giants with Eli in 2008 are the only two of Reid's 10 playoff wins with the Eagles where he beat a better Quarterbacked team. It's just a fact that the AFC where the road generally went through Brady, Manning and Big Ben was the tougher road at that point. So when people say "he had playoff success with McNabb" which is true, he did, you have to put that success into context. He lost to Delhomme, Kerry Collins, Brad Johnson and when he faced Warner, Brees, Rodgers, Romo - the top NFC QBs of that eera - he was 0-5....

He is although he is still, at heart, a Shanahan offense guy and I've never been persuaded that offense is a natural fit for Josh. It's way too paint by numbers. I think Josh needs more of the freedom created by the E-P or spread branch of the WCO. But as I said the other day if Mike McDaniel ends up out of work and I needed an OC I'd consider him because of his creativity and maybe Kubiak is in that same bucket.

One more thing from yesterday - Klint Kubiak is going to be a Head Coach this time next year.

While largely I agree I do think you can "ruin" a young QB is they are getting hit a lot and early. Because QBs lowering their eyes to the rush is a real thing. And once a QB gets there they are in trouble and it takes a lot of rebuilding to ever bring them back. It happened to Darnold in New York. If the Bears are not careful it will happen to Caleb - although he can help himself by getting the damn ball out.

Gotta have those top 10 pick right tackles though..... 🤣 Nah, that's DPI all day. I'd be fuming if that happened to a Bills receiver and we didn't get a call.

I thought Andy Reid called a poor game last night. Sure they "took what Cincy were giving" but they never really tried to dictate to the Bengals. They just let the Bengals D dictate the way their O played. I think Anarumo might be in his head.

The Chiefs need to stop running so much. You have Patrick Mahomes FFS.

That is more PI than the one the Bengals got.

Compare the trios.... I take Cook over Pacheco personally for home run ability but its close. Kelce and Rice against Kincaid and whoever (Shakir?)? No contest.

Old leaden feet himself.

Yea shoulda been illegal contact not PI IMO.

Wait until a team makes them throw.

Meh. Darnold starting seasons well isn't new. That said, I always said there was too much talent there to be a bottom 5 or 6 team.

In fairness they were 3-3 through 6 weeks but they had lost all their key guys by then. I think their LT, LG, QB, RB, WR1, CB1 and MLB were all out long term by week 7.

Yea. Rice is a legit #1.

Tee is more important in that offense than people give him credit for.

TF did Mahomes see there?

Richardson is hopeless in the drop back passing game.

I that Cardinals win will end up looking pretty decent.

Jim Harbaugh is such a cheat. I can't stand him. Pressurising officials already. Horrible man. And they changed their mind as a result. Horrible call.

No it doesn't. It shows that he goes for it when he should. The reason we don't go for it more is we face fewer 4th downs. Same as the 9ers. Taking the bald numbers as you are on attempts is of no use for making an assessment.

That is a bad way of measuring. You have to measure the % of 4th downs faced. The Panthers attempted the most 4th downs last year. You know why? They faced the most. The 49ers and Bills attempted among the fewest.... again, not hard to figure why. Thanks. I was looking for this and couldn't lay my hands on it. Point proven.

Your perception is wrong. McDermott has consistently been one of the most aggressive 4th down decision makers.

Through two games the Bills best player not name Josh Allen has been Christian Benford. Targeted 10 times, he has given up 4 receptions for 25 yards and has an interception.
