Zay Jones sighting

There’s a time to dunk, and there’s a time to chunk. Both have their place

breasts on a chicken but yeah

Considering I’m pretty sure he got injected up with something powerful to come bouncing up the stairs, I think you can bet on that. As someone said, he probably can’t feel his leg from the hip down

Good question, the idea is it shuts down the inflammation before it really gets going. I’ve been told about players getting it but, that was Then, this is Now Patty just came bouncing up the locker room steps so he got some kind of happy juice squirted in there, bet on it

Toradol shot, yes Maybe steroid as well - uncertain if it affects swelling after acute injury Legal if doctor is doing it

Yep, being tackled and defender landed on his ankle. Threw a total hissy fit - wouldn’t come out of the game, even though he was 100% gimping around. Threw his cape when sent to the locker room for e v a l. Said to be ankle injury “questionable” to return but I bet he does

Oh, OK, taking a knee

Jags need to stop the Chiefs from scoring with 30 seconds left in the half or whatever it is They can’t double dip, Chiefs get the ball after halftime

Yo, Josh, that little dump off Lawrence just did that went for a 1st down? You can do that too!

Yes. Yes, he did.

Not accordsing to former NFL WR Cris

LOL Collinsworth Ball hit Kirk in the hands Collinsworth says Lawrence “overthrew him”

Tackle where guy fell on his ankle

Indeed

They just did

Nah, he’s all over Pacheco and the KC OL. No comment on how ticky-tack that “roughing” call was

Referees to Jacksonville: “Bend Over and Let Me Drive” How on earth do they call that “roughing the passer”? What is the defender supposed to do, beam himself up?

The Chiefs ain't the Chargers If Lawrence plays like that today, they're gonna be in a hole they can not climb from. But, if there's ever a coach that can match or win a battle of wits with Andy Reid, that guy would be Doug Pederson.

I still think Trevor Lawrence looks like a horse. Giddy-up Jags!

FWIW cross-posting the Dan Orlovsky clip posted in the game week thread He goes into the John Brown INT, pointing out that the Dolphins successfully took away the flood concept on 1st down and left Josh with the deep shot to Brown or the checkdown. I'm a little puzzled because I actually think Josh had a better shot to Morris on the short, flat route than to Singletary (who Orlovsky identifies as the alternative); there were bodies in the way to Singletary, making it likely IMO that throw gets tipped at the line or, if Josh threw it with an arc but it wasn't just right, defenders could make a play. I thought Josh had a good passing lane to Morris and could have thrown at an angle where it's Morris or no one. But obviously Orlovsky's overall point is clear - the Dolphins said "you get the deep shot, or the checkdown, and we know you're constitutionally disinterested in the checkdown."

In 2019 before we got Diggs, Allen used to throw 50/50 balls to Brown and he defended them as needed. Overall, of course, I agree with you. I could be wrong, but even with Allen's cannon of an arm, I think those deep balls have to be thrown before the defender is necessarily "smoked", meaning if there's confusion about exactly how the route is being run, disaster can ensure.

I believe Chaos is being sarcastic. And he would ordinarily have a point, except that Greg Cosell has been watching NFL film full time since it was actual film on reels, and Romo was literally in diapers. I don't think what they say contradicts, actually. Looking at the whole play, it does appear that the first read was to Knox and that on 1st down, the play design would be to take the checkdown if Knox wasn't open and only an aggressive QB with a big arm would try to hit the clearing route (Romo passed for 34,000 yds, putting him in that aggressive bin himself). And Romo is correct - Brown did pause on his route, which is consistent with knowing he's not the receiver the play is designed for and not wanting to wear himself out. Any former QB is going to be inclined to place blame more towards the receiver than to the QB, but the ball wasn't placed where only a receiver running full-out would get it.

I think it's on both of them. Putting everything together, I think Brown knew he was supposed to be a clearing route and Knox was the first read, so he paused on his route at what should have been enough time to complete the throw, glanced towards Knox, said "Oh Crap it's Coming to me" and took off again. Romo thought it was supposed to be a skinny post, Cover1 thought it was supposed to bend out towards the sideline (not sure what that's called). I think Allen tried to adjust to what he thought Brown was doing, which seemed ambiguous, and screwed it up; if he'd have just thrown it ahead of Brown and towards the sideline, either Brown accelerates and makes a brilliant catch or it falls incomplete, no harm no foul, 2nd down. So screwups on both sides, except the QB is the Man and has the final decision authority - hence Josh claiming it as a bad decision.
