Because Brady’s sterling history with the best college talent of all time and five minutes with the Panthers is the stuff your tell your kids about. All of them ride Allen jock. To separate by how much is silly

1. Daboll- He had Allen on point. He also benefited from being in an era where teams had less tape on Josh. It's so much harder for Allen to get to the sidelines now vs his first few years. Coordinators know that is when he is the most dangerous. Creativity in play structure we haven't really seen since. I thought he did a good job. 2. Brady- Seems to really understand Josh. He is doing everything possible to keep Allen in the plays structure and keep us on schedule. Lot of short passing and commitment to the run. Some hate the small ball, but I feel like focusing on points in the lane is the best way to harness what Josh can do for us. 3. Dorsey- The anti Brady, tried putting a jet engine in a corvette. All three pointers. This led to some pretty crazy output at times but really brought out the variance on offense. I don't see his system as being consistent enough in results. It's very hard to rate McD or anybody on defense for that matter because you know McD his hands all over it. So a nod to Babich is nod to growth with McD as well IMO. 1. Babich- We have done more with less, switched schemes more. If he got a handle on the run defense I was going to be happy which he largely seems to have done. As bad as some of the first half's have been, the 2nd half adjustments have been money. 2. McD- He's our head coach. I don't want him as a defensive coordinator. 3. Frazier - We seemed to be the least aggressive, most two shelled, most bend but don't break in this stretch. Again, not sure how much of that is Frazier or McD but McD seemed to be fairly aggressive in blitz packages last year.

Well that’s interesting, I know Gridiron very well. They’re fantastic. Can’t say enough about them really.

Given the history of us and the Chiefs in the regular season and how they're playing right now, again, massive win and it is #2 in my book. but this Detroit game is at another level. With how hot they're and being the rightful Super Bowl favorites. A lot of people want to get a barometer on this team as we balance such a solid win vs the Baltimore/Houston debacles. To me, this is a true litmus test. In the end just another regular season game? Sure. But even a real negative nancy like me will start feeling the mojo if we can compete in that spot. I don't even think I need to see the W. I just want to play well.

As many of you recall, we met last on Thanksgiving day, 2022. We won that game by the slimmest of margins 28-25 with Allen going nearly the length of the field in seconds to set up a game winning field goal. Detroit had us on the ropes in that game. We were totally off balance on defense often seeing Detroit run the ball on third down regardless of distance. They went 3 for 3 that day on 4th down conversions. It had that "escape" feel when it was over. It likely only went that direction as a result of Detroit getting too conservative at the very end, opting for a field goal in 4th and short vs going for it with a first down likely ending the game. Since that game the collective record of the two teams is 55-18. Detroit has a 1.5 game edge on us since then. We will be facing elite coaching, excellent power run game and rightfully, the current Super Bowl favorite. We will have aspirations of the #1 seed on the line as Detroit is far and away the hardest game left on our schedule. Detroit is also becoming a rather difficult place to play. It's pretty simple to me, if we really want to know how this team stacks up for a potential Super Bowl run you will know after that game. They can throw haymaker and have balance like the Colts, Bengals, Titans, and Ravens in the past, teams that were able to knock us out when so few can. They're very hard nose. Houston just beat the living crap out of them and they found a way. As all this relates to the timing of the KC game, well, massive win, clearly. They either round into playoff form, at which point I will have a hard time drawing any conclusions from it or they won't, at which point we have bigger fish to fry. Detroit being the biggest if we can eventually make it that far. I just don't see anybody in the NFC pushing them. Another side note, being from that area, a Detroit & Buffalo Super Bowl would be epic. I also imagine it would be a massive ratings draw. Already getting chills for this one.

Very few do, he's elite in the scheme of the whole league in that area. I think Samuel is a more explosive athlete. 10 yard race, he wins over everybody on our WR roster, doing it sideways, Shakir would.

Classy

You don't want to argue like a bunch of b's anymore? Fine. I hope one day Ty Johnson becomes our version of Bill Brasky

So in your mind, you think a LB can just shoot straight up an open lane and wreck a play? You realize they call that....ugh....what is that again. A blitz?

Allen drops back, plants his leg, and goes immediately upfield. Play some madden or read a book.
