  1. Sit Douglas and Rapp. If you can't beat Mason Rudolph with Benford, Elam, Johnson, Hyde, Poyer, and Jackson then you have bigger issues.
  2. Looks like Elam should dress for this game. If I'm McD I play more 4-3 this week. Spector looked good. Williams should not be a liability in coverage and should add some nice pop. Maybe even play Taron at safety if they want to go with a three safety package wit Rapp hurt.
  3. I have to wonder if there is always a hot route? I understand the concept but I wonder if every designed play has a hot route. Clearly on the sack Shakir could have read that blitz and did a quick in route for a first down. I think if you are leaving a back in to block and only sending 4 out in pass patterns Mayne the concept us to let the routes develop thinking you have an extra blocker. Regardless Warner is right. Josh had some misses in the first half.
  4. Ouch! But your analogy is spot on. That drop in Miami was as bad as Harmon's in Cleveland. Both great passes from the QB. Both next passes ended up with bad outcomes. What is so frustrating is Both players were excellent pass catching RBs.

  6. I will take Allen's arm in the wind over popgun Rudolph's any day. I care more about freezing rain. Josh has his issues holding onto the ball. Rain is the greater equalizer. However it might be too cold for moisture to be an issue.
  7. The Browns would have struggled to 6 wins if Watson stayed healthy
  8. Complete guesses with nothing to back it up Brady is not good at his job Josh doesn't like to just plow ahead Josh only goes left They are setting up some type of trick play down the road? Morse is not nearly as good Kelce Hurts has stronger legs than Allen
  9. Wow. There were a ton of cops, two ambulances, and two fire trucks trying to get into a parking lot we walked past after the game. They couldn't move because the cars had nowhere to pull over. Wonder what the response time was. Tragic
  10. Pretty close. Just a little high on the TDs
  11. He doesn't look like a NFL QB at all. No way would I draft him
  12. Terrible no call hold on that big pass to the TE. If you are going to call that non hold on UW can't let the UM RT have a full hand of jersey
  13. It was an amazing experience! It started on Saturday seeing Bills jerseys all around town. The game was crazy. Credit to the Miami fans. They were far louder than I expected. You simply could not tell from the crowd noise which team had made a great play. The tell tale sign was watching our defenders pumping up the crowd while Miami was on offense.
  14. Was it really? They moved the ball between the 20's with ease with and without him. The long Shakir screen pass was all due to Davis blocking two guys. They scored 7 points with him in the game and 7 without him in the game. Not saying he is that critical to their success but he has made some very big plays for this team at times. most of this board (including myself for a brief moment) would have sat Knox. And yet look at him bending and twisting his way to a TD. They should not need Davis to beat Pittsburgh. It gives him 2 weeks to heal. Should be a good game to see what they can get out of Sherfield and Shakir. FYI Sherfield YPC 7.8 Davis YPC 16.6 Shakir YPC 15.7
  15. So in fairness to Miller, did anyone on the DL make an impact last night? The top 6 tacklers were all back 7 guys Jones is the only DL with more than one tackle credit. Dodson got credit for a sack but I really don't recall it. I am not sure any DL even got close to Tua
  16. How does Josh not see the Kincaid flat pattern is there? Is this a situation he has predehe is going to try to go to Diggs??? Still not sure why he didn't decide to run for the first on 4th and 2 once he scrambled to the right.
  17. They have struggled to run the ball in every Brady game except Dallas. Agree his pass concepts were working well. If Josh hits Diggs for a 95 yard TD that first half is a completely different story.
  18. Looked like he got wind knocked out of him as he landed on the ball. Maybe a cramp too...
  19. Cleveland rebuilt their DT rotation in one season while bringing in Jim Schwartz to improve their defense to a top ranking. Then he finds Flacco on a couch. Best thing to happen to Cleveland though was Watson getting hurt(And of of ocurse Joe Burrow). He was terrible except one game against Tenn and one half against the Ravens.
  20. What happened to reverses, shuttle passes, naked bootlegs, and other trickery? This was fairly constant with Daboll. The Dolphins were overpursuing the run all night with poor backside contain. I think the only designed trickery was the WR screen to Diggs that Allen hit Shakir on the sideline down to the 4. There wasn't even much motion last night other than a couple times Diggs would line up in the backfield and then move to the slot. Hope Brady adds a few more wrinkles and starts to move the pocket a bit more.
  21. Based on what? He kicked the kickoff nearly through the uprights on his last kickoff. No signs he is hurt whatsoever.
  22. Only if Buffalo and KC win. Browns are 5 seed. Miami is 6 and Pittsburgh is 7. If either win they go to Baltimore
  23. You are not understanding what people mean by WR2. It doesn't mean #2 in targets Sorry, but you think Shakir can be a #1 WR? Diggs isn't going anywhere. He is still an elite WR. WR#2 played college football last month
