Ethan in Cleveland

Exactly. And most people thought they were crazy to even put Wilson the the trading block

Russell Wilson is a locker room cancer. Hackett is getting the blame and probably deservedly so. But there is something about Wilson that causes friction with teams. Hopefully the full story comes out. Seattle is winning without him and was willing to part with him.

Good post

Unreal. Even after not getting the first on 3rd down I thought they should have gone for it on fourth down. One yard and they win the game.

Good catch. David Shula was a bust with the Bengals. Mike Shula was terrible with Alabama. He had one winning season in 4 years. Tennessee has been a bad football program for years since Fulmer left. 7 of the past 14 seasons since Fulmer left were losing seasons and 2022 will be the first in two decades with less than 4 losses. Colorado does stink right now. However they have a decent history. They have a won a single National Championship just as Tenn does. Oregon zero. They have a single Heisman trophy winner. Same number as Oregon. Tenn has none. You are correct about getting guys in the NFL. Colorado currently only has 11 while Oregon and Tenn have closer to 40 each. That will liekly chage with Sanders as HC.

No it shouldn't be allowed. You could write a rule a couple of ways. You could specifically write the rule for QB's. Once they are touched from behind by someone on his team, the play is stopped at the point the contact began. Just like the yardage is marked when the QB initiates his slide not where it ends. This would eliminate the QB getting pushed on sneaks because the ball would be short of the line to gain. Or you could write the rule that when a player is not engaged with a defender he can not be propelled forward with a push or pull. Once engaged with a defender all bets are off. This would effectively eliminate a QB or RB getting pushed from behind in a short yardage situation right at the beginning of the play but still allows some of the scrums we see every week where forward momentum is not stopped.

Diggs gets hit with a lot of extra shots by DBs. He delivers a lot too. Sometimes when he is about to get hit he will fall down. Other times he seems to let up for a brief moment then put a helmet/shoulder into a guy especially before going out of bounds. They let this call go and they let the Epenesa sack go. Could have been roughing the QB as he lifted and twisted the QB down like a wrestling move which was specifically called out as a penalty several years ago. I'm glad they didn't call either.

Funny how if the Dolphins sign this guy it was a desperate move. If Beane and the Bills had signed him after seeing how terrible Bobby Hart played, the board would love it. Fisher was never more than a capable LT at his best and post Achilles he is probably a turnstile. Let's all hope Dawkins is ready to play soon.

Let's hope McD uses the Cincinnati blueprint to beat KC again

Cold doesn't matter. Its the rain and wind that is the real issue. Pats playoff game was second coldest in franchise history but with little to no wind. It was not bad to play in that cold. Allen and Bills have struggled in high wind and rain home or away.

Ticket prices are nuts for this game.

Just wait for Crowder to come back. As they enter the playoffs these bottom of the roster guys mean less and less. Diggs, Davis, and Knox will get 80% of the targets. Maybe 10-15% to the running backs. That leaves a few scraps for McKenzie and Shakir. They are fine at WR and don't need OBJ.

I think all programs have there up and downs. Remember Alabama was once coached by David Shula. USC hit tock bottom just recently. Tennessee has been a bottom feeder for a decade. Ohio State with Earl Bruce underperformed. Boston College used to be good. Oregon before Phil Knight poured a billion dollars into the school was a Pac 10 afterthought. Utah has built a really good program while BYU is now down. Not saying Colorado can turn it around, but it usually takes a dynamic recruiter, possibly money under the table( before NIL), and a few star players to get some name recognition with the kids.

So all the Beane hasn't done enough for the Oline and WR group comments on here are meaningless? Pretty sure Josh got a lot better throwing to Diggs and Beasley. Seemed to struggle when Morse was out. Jalen Hurts was ok last year and now is a lot better with two better WRs.

Carolina is a dumpster fire. Mayfield asked to be released to go to better organization.

Chiefs at Denver and at Vegas could be hard games. Last game of the year may be a playoff spot for Raiders who are playing better. They have a run game and dominant WR that can keep Mahommes and Kelce off the field. Raiders also have decent pass rush. I think KC drops one more game and the real fight for #1 seed is with the Bengals

Aren't most Denver losses close losses? I think all but two of their games - wins and losses are 1 score games many 3 points or fewer including this past weekend. Maybe this is the week Denver O finds itself. KC defense is not that great. It's in Denver. KC coming off a loss makes it harder but it could be an upset of the week.

Lol. Jets are terrible but you get the NYC audience. I think the Browns Bengals game is actually more compelling but they probably didn't want the #1 team covering a Watson game.

Agreed. And Seattle has one of the worst trades ever when they gave up two first rounders for Adams.

Isn't it odd that the Rams pick that the Lions have will be higher that Detroit's own pick. Not many would have guessed that coming off a SB win.

Does the board beleive in the Eagles and Hurts now? They keep stacking wins and Hurts keeps piling up the yards and scores

Staley is ruining Herbert. He has to go if they miss the playoffs with all the off-season money they spent. Still think they have a shot at the WC because Miami, New England, and the Jets are going to start to lose in bunches.

Good day for Buffalo! Take care of business the next two weeks and then see what happens down the stretch.

I was on board from day 1 before the draft. Wanted no part of Mayfield or Darnold. That said I would have been happy with Rosen too. He was my #2. Beane has been great but if the Jets take Allen its a whole different story for Beane and McDermott

He lost control of the ball while he was out of bounds going to the ground. Its been the rule for several years now and a pretty easy call. Like others said the ball never hit the ground so if his body was still in bounds its a catch. Not even close to the correct interpretation of the play. He made no football move. He didn't survive the ground. No catch. Easy call.
