Why is that an important piece of knowledge; exactly how would it have changed anything about how he did his job this week? He's spending hours working with players and coaches, studying opponents, installing game plans, etc. not watching TV or dicking around with online media to check out potential playoff scenarios. His only job is to win on Sundays, whether he's 12-3 or 3-12. Nothing else matters. Hell, maybe he even knows where they're at and is trying to make a point to his team about staying focused on what you can control and ignoring what you can't. 🤷‍♂️ Whatever the case, ragging on him for being focused on preparing his team to the exclusion of all else is ragging on him for doing his job.

He's played 5 games. Do you really think professional D coordinators need 5 whole games of tape to find a guys' weaknesses? That dude instantly made the 49ers an infinitely more dangerous team the second he stepped on the field and he's doing it in a way that is sustainable. I'm sure his numbers will drop in the postseason simply by virtue of them playing better competition every week, but you can bet he's not going to go full turtle the way Garoppolo inevitably would have. They'll be in every game they play and Purdy's brains and balls will be a big reason why.

I hope a win tomorrow night helps us avoid Augie's in-laws in the playoffs...

I thought both teams were getting away with egregious amounts of holding up front all night long.

There's no real reason for him to pay attention to that stuff, and that knowledge wouldn't have changed anything regarding how he coached his team this week. I think it's kind of admirable that he's focused on nothing but getting his guys ready to win on Sunday and the hell with everything else.

Probably brought out a couple TVs and a sectional so they could sit around and talk about it for a while

Seems like a good place to remind people that THIS IS NOT A BILLS THREAD. 🤷‍♂️

Enjoy a stress-free Sunday Bills fans

They were two of the best 5 teams in the country

He was so good for 59 1/2 minutes, then his balls crawled up inside his belly the second they got to the edge of FG range.

When they expand the playoffs, if I have to watch four games like today's two, I might need medical attention.

Maybe if they trade up two dozen spots

College still uses the older rule that the NFL went away from re: spotting the ball when the runner goes OB.

This might be the best game I've ever seen Ryan Day call.

There's assassins all over the field; those fellas are trying to kill each other. If Day doesn't outsmart himself and Stroud brings his A game, OSU can hang around and have a punchers chance; but I think Georgia's power is going to start to tell by the time the 4th qrtr is in full swing and they'll just be too strong for OSU when it counts.

He'll need 36 hrs to recover but he's got 40+ to play with. Hope you and the hill folk are having a good season, quiet man. 🤙

In case anybody wants a place to say "wow"

No dammit, I will not watch.... <crosses arms and affects pouting face>

Nuances are hard to come by in 300lb men

They also say hard consonants are easier for them as well. I think dogs are smart enough that in the long run it probably doesn't really matter.

Low blow.

Even better than my belligerent drunken rant about how stupid the Bills would be to trade for that chickenshlt Bledsoe and that they ought to be going after that Brady kid instead? It was an unheralded masterpiece of brilliant analysis coupled with unhinged jackassery. Sorry about your doggo 💕 🐕 💕 Take Joshalyn and tell the Boss you came up with it while you're watching the Bengals game
