I know it was mid game and they had to modify their plan, but the game with Tampa was seriously changed when Ekeler went down. His replacement wasn't really a replacement. So,with Ekeler back, I think they are a much better team. Aside from him, I think Herbert and Allen are going to put on a show. Can't count on dumb luck and coaching stupidity to keep the Chargers down forever. Also hoping Allen is better protected than he was against the Cards. I was really looking forward to seeing a healthy line last week.

Being top ten by every measure makes him much better than just top ten. The same as if your team has a top five offense and a top five defense it would probably be the best team in the league, not just a top five team. I'm not sure if I'm harder on Allen because I'm a fan or if I'm easy on him because I'm a fan, but I see him similarly. Also I think Herbert might be on my list of top QBs going forward.

Is she actually watching Bills games? Does she not understand her position as a nationally known media type? She's gonna ruin it for all her lazy box score skimming peers. Great stuff.

Romo annoyed me there because he just belabored the point and wasn't really looking for an answer to where the stat came from, just putting Nantz on the spot. But I too fail to recall the topic. It was something like momentum or streaks or something. Romo is hard not to vote for here because he clearly prepares by watching previous games and he really knows his stuff. But Archuleta and Feeley do too. And it seems like Archuleta has done enough Bills games that he probably doesn't have to hit game pass as much as any others. It is incredible to me that so many of the big name announcers clearly don't watch small market or less competitive teams and don't seem to even spend a few hours watching condensed games of the teams they are set to call.

I have been very impressed with the pass pro this year and it wasn't bad last year, but the run blocking has looked awful for years. I feel bad every time I think back to that oline under the chair chucking kiddie puncher. I miss that guy.

I didn't think he looked quite as good. Perhaps because he was settling for second or third choices/reads. But even with the drops he was over 60%, right? And while the drops were drops, can anyone imagine Kelvin Benjamin leaping for that Davis grab that got called back? Or the deep to Diggs last week or the endzone spinner Beasley had? We just saw a tiny dose of pass catching mediocrity and it looked like a splash of 2018. Allen has definitely improved this season and his touch passing seems to have come from out of the blue, but this seasons grabs make it pretty clear that the first season didn't have to be so statistically bad.

We give them our first they give us Williams and a second. We only drop one pick and I still have hope for QW.

I have read varying accounts that he was 6'1" or 6'2" in high school. He literally needed more time to grow.

Thank you. Long time listener. I'm honored. I have sought out your posts since the BBMB days.

That was a fun read, but I think there's a third possibility that the author has missed. Allen wasn't simply less accurate. If he were, then his passes would follow a sort of normal distribution, but his didn't seem to. Setting aside too-narrow windows and bad drops, his misses were often just wild pitches, far worse than simply a bad throw. Imagine a shooter who hits bullseye half the time and misses the paper a third of the time. If you can explain the instances where the shooter is missing the paper, then you have a coach-able situation. If it's just a shotgun type pattern then experience can improve the situation but only so much. Allen had thousands of fewer reps than the big names and I suspect that the wild pitch/panic and bail instinct along with basic mechanics under pressure is an earlier problem to sort out with both coaching and experience than tweaking the position of your elbow or whatever. The former issues are rarely (if ever) a problem seen in big program college prospects. I think that is why old scout types understood the promise he had because they have been involved with actual players and have a more intensive understanding than the extensive view of the stats guys. Incidentally, the "all the throws/runs" video on Jackson was similar. Dimes and wooden nickles. Jackson's field vision and placement were so often crazy good or completely off. (looks like buffalo junction beat me to this, but I'm invested now.)

It is available without dish in my area, perhaps his too. Their website has a "check availability" feature. see: https://nflst.directv.com/ I can only log into one device at a time, tablet, phone, laptop, roku, etc. So if you are using the account, then he cannot. If he is in a long term care facility, he might get around the dish requirement in the same way that apartment dwellers often do.
