Do people know theres three wildcards now? You think all 3 wildcards will be better than 10-6?

We don't need to have the same record as Miami going into week 17...we can be 10-5 if Miami is 11-4 which is very likely Our loss yesterday took away the slim chance that we could lose to Miami and still win the division

Youd think theyd have some kind of plan for Hopkins there like that...they couldve covered him with 6 dbs there and he still makes that catch lol I wonder if Josh could track a long pass like that its pretty difficult to do and time your jump properly...I'll never forget gronk missing a huge tackle on a last second kick return against thr dolphins that cost the pats the game so that kind of stuff makes me nervous lol im sure Bill had the same thought process as what were talking about

Looking back on it and seeing what didn't work that certainly seems like an option...hes still behind a healthy margin in vertical and wingspan but im sure he wouldve at least bodied Hopkins a little bit 🤣 it doesn't even sound possible but if you factor in the jump and everything else Hopkins has like a 10 inch advantage over white even though white is only a few inches shorter. I cant think of anyone else besides Josh that wouldve even had a chance and I dont think they'd let their qb in there

Hopkins has a 5 inch higher vertical than white according to combine stats and probably the biggest hands in the history of hands and the wingspan of a 7 foot tall dude...he was literally built in a lab for the sole purpose of outjumping guys for balls 🤣🤣 I just think we don't have anyone tall enough for that...I was debating someone on here about the size difference between white and Hopkins in another thread but it is a massive mismatch when you factor in their verticals and Hopkins' wingspan...i don't think we have receivers tall enough that couldve made a difference do we? we needed to jostle him around on his way up which rarely gets called as pi on the final play so we get away with it likely or get to Murray before he threw the ball

Oh yea they shouldn't have been for sure lol I meant once you see Kyler running hard to his left side they probably weren't making their best effort to disrupt Hopkins and risk a penalty as if they were badly out of position since they were not expecting an across his body 50 yard laserbeam ball that he could perfectly highpoint out of the air. I didnt mean the playcall caught them off guard. I guess theoretically as far as playcalling goes the cards couldve run a play to get about half along the sideline

Same...this cardinals away game was the last unequally tough game we had left compared to their schedule id say. Im a little confused at the schedule comparisons.

Yea I didn't hate the decision making on the second pick hes just gotta miss further out in front of Davis and incomplete at worst...first pick I have no idea what even happened which is not a good sign 🤣 Yea you can do that with most qbs on any given week though...Tua had one literally go straight through a defenders hands today

The throw did seem to catch everybody off guard i still can't believe it...it would be hard to place the ball there from 10 yards out in a clean pocket and he does that lol ridiculous

Yep I think poyer was trying to get in just as the ball got there to disrupt everybody but it was more friendly fire than anything

Yea it does seem like we play a little on the safe side in general with trying to avoid penalties which is pretty ironic because we have no problem committing penalties 🤣 theyre probably not calling a PI on that play anyway

Gotta see a game where Tua has to carry the team before we can start throwing the E word around. Idk if evidence supports they will keep climbing...most rookie qbs have the most success in their first few starts and defenses adjust. They're also scoring defensive and special teams touchdowns at a ridiculous rate.

Can't argue with the push and shove cuz theyre likely getting away with it but I do think if a PI was called we would all be losing our minds talking about how awful of a penalty it was and that everyone should be fired etc. 🤣 It sure would be talked about forever though haha

We get enough penalties called on us that aren't actually penalties to be in any position to recover from actual penalties 🤣

Can't argue with that...people also probably predicted lamar wouldn't be good because he can't throw so theyre rooting for that to be proven...kind of like the thing we hate that other fans do to us regarding josh allen 🤣

I think that movement is saying its less important for a division race because we have a game against Miami left anyway so if we won today and lost to Miami we are as f'ed as if we lost today and lost to Miami 🤣 we could be a game behind Miami going into week 17 and still be in control. If were a game ahead of them and lose though you've got to start thinking about all the tiebreaker scenarios since we both could be sitting at a 4-2 division record. its a much bigger deal for a wildcard race but theres a third wildcard this year too keep in mind

I think the hate was sort of created by the glowing praise he received last year...every player has flaws and makes mistakes but to hear announcers and analysts talk about mahomes and Jackson like they are some kind of divine beings got pretty old 🤣

I dont think the pats are as bad as people on here have been making it sound...on paper maybe but theres been quite a few years where we've had the more talented roster and where did that get us 🤣 to put on my tin foil hat for a second you've gotta think the powers that be set it up so that the bills dolphins week 17 game is for the division right? Lol

Yea id love to see someone try it and then dean Blandino will have to furiously search through a rulebook to verify its not against the rules 🤣 this is a wild guess but a lot of these hail mary winners are on tips and deflections so I think theyre trying to maximize the amount of receivers they have on the field

Haha right that was thr scenario I was lookin into...sad you'll have to root against us though especially with the way everyone is talking up miami 🤣

I dont see two many realistic scenarios where they could do that id have to check on the tiebreakers though. If it was just us or Miami theyd have a chance but its both. If we win the Miami game I think the pats are in trouble but not mathematically done obviously. It would take a miracle for one of us and Miami not getting to 10-6

I was just thinking that....rooting for a pats win is something I never thought I'd do. Granted there's an extra wildcard now but I sure hope it doesn't come to that

Is there any kind of protection for the lifter when the receivers hands touch the ball if this was done in the nfl...I can't imagine them allowing this for player safety reasons but you never know...we all learned you can horsecollar qbs in the pocket this year 🤣

I might be too optimistic but I think if mitch morse plays that game we win comfortably

I dont know enough about rugby to refute this one but using three of your receivers to lift up one dude in a position in the end zone where he doesn't really have a way to adjust his positioning to catch a 60 yard pass while your qb is running for his life is the best use of resources haha im sure one of these nfl coaches would be crazy enough to try it if it would work I have absolutely no doubt allen wouldve loved to be out there on that play...that is for sure 😁
