It’s called a hip drop tackle. Basically a smaller DB grabs a bigger player around the waist from behind and then tries to sit down/goes dead weight to bring them down. It disproportionately leads to injuries, so people think it is dirty.

I’ve heard Bengals fans saying he’s a bad coach, and their success has been despite him.

Not to mention he’s had some underwhelming seasons sprinkled in there.

Save face. Also will help him get another coaching job if he resigned vs being fired for cause IMO. Executives and top leadership at companies and orgs do that all the time. So much so that “I’m stepping aside to spend more time with family,” for an incompetent executive is a meme. Did I present it as fact? I’m not the only person that thinks Frazier was actually fired.

He said that he chose to step away for a year (rather than being fired) so convincingly I almost believed it.

I think we can root for the Browns to beat the Steelers this week. And then hope they lose out.

That pass is to the house with any of Tua’s WR. I think my comment in the game day thread was something like “If Davis wasn’t slower than my grandma that would have been a TD.”

This post probably got scheduled a week ago.

If he’s forcing us to run more, he isn’t doing a very good job. We needed to run a lot more the past 2 weeks.

Similarly Patrick Peterson broke down how he knew he would get the game winning INT in the Vikings game last year. I never hear DBs say that they know the play and know they are going to get a pick. It's weird that it has happened twice.

There is no guarantee that the Texans will continue to improve. They just lost to the winless Panthers. Stroud will probably still have up and down performances for the next couple seasons, and it’s possible that the league begins to learn his tendencies. Baker Mayfield and the Browns looked like they were going to be contenders for years. This version of the Bills has a much larger body of work. Very reactionary thread. Go ahead and be a Texans fan though.

It’s like a chest strap heart rate monitor. They just added shoulder loops to the harness for more stability, and bam…you have a bra.

Maybe a 9 win team will make the wild card this year 😄

The Pats wind game was pretty memorable. Allen slipping at the 1 yard line vs the Titans. The Jets with a punt return TD in OT. Hail Murray (not primetime but pretty goofy).

I don’t think there are four 10-7 wildcard teams. Browns? Texans? Bengals? Bills? Colts? Raiders? Chargers? Steelers are not as good as their record, they are going to start losing. Bengals will probably lose to the Ravens this week and fall to the same record as us. If I had to guess, Texans get to 10-6 because they have a favorable schedule. Then one or two more teams will get there. Bills and Bengals have very tough schedules. I don’t really believe in the Colts or Raiders. Not sure what to make of the Chargers. They are a lot like us. Browns have lost Watson for the year. It’s really wide open. Unfortunately we’ve forgotten how to play.

Maybe the firing of a coach will get these malcontents fired up and jolt them awake. If we can ride some adrenaline to 2 wins going into the bye, we’ll only need to go 3-2 the rest of the way to make the playoffs. Stranger things have happened (it would be a strange thing though). As for the Jets… Run the ball. Don’t turn it over. Don’t be afraid to punt. Make that dweeb Zach Wilson actually drive the entire field to beat us. I bet he can’t.

I watched all 4 of the games, and both QBs looked like garbage in both games. Not sure how you could see it any differently. Congrats to Mahomes for having slightly better luck to go 1-1 instead of 0-2 though. My view is Allen has had some issues, but his output is right there with other QBs that have teams with 8-2 or 7-3 records. This is because the Bills defense has been hot garbage since the Jacksonville game, and a little bit of luck. Historically, 1 score games should be about 50-50 regardless of how good/bad the teams playing are. The Chiefs are 4-1 in one score games. Bills are 2-5 in one score games. That’s just the kind of sport this is. Sometimes you get a bounce and sometimes you don’t.

I kind of hope he runs a simplified version of the offense and goes "back to basics". Obviously he can't scrap everything and start over in the middle of the season.

You didn't even mention their actual performance. Against Denver: Mahomes vs Allen: 24/38 (63%) --- 15/26 (58%) 240 yards passing --- 177 yards passing 6.3 YPA --- 6.8 YPA 0 passing TDs --- 1 passing TD 2 INTs --- 2 INTs 3 sacks --- 0 sacks 59 passer rating --- 59 passer rating 20 yards rushing --- 13 yards rushing 0 rushing TDs --- 1 rushing TD 1 lost fumble --- 1 lost fumble ^^^ Also Allen converted a 2 pt conversion. KC didn't score a TD this game. Slight advantage to Allen. Against Jets: Mahomes vs Allen: 18/30 (60%) --- 29/41 (71%) 203 passing yards --- 236 passing yards 6.8 YPA --- 5.8 YPA 1 passing TD --- 1 passing TD 2 INTs --- 3 INTs 1 sack --- 5 sacks 64 passer rating --- 63 passer rating 51 rushing yards --- 36 rushing yards 0 rushing TDs --- 0 rushing TDs 0 lost fumble --- 1 lost fumble ^^^ Slight advantage to Mahomes. KC was gifted a bogus defensive holding to end this game. They could have easily lost. You could make the same "Biggest Division Opponent" argument for the Bills against the Jets. Mahomes was trash in both of these games and so was Allen. Mahomes was slightly luckier, so he won one of them. Allen was slightly unluckier (12 men on the field), so he lost both.

Did you watch the Mahomes game vs the Jets? It was as bad as Allen's game vs the Jets. Did you watch Mahomes game vs the Broncos 2 weeks ago? Again...worse than Allen's game vs the Broncos. You claim to watch other games then come up with the weirdest examples.

He just can't believe that the defense gave up a game winning drive again after he scored the go ahead score.

The line has had a few games where they really struggled in pass protection. This is actually a remarkable improvement from last year where they struggled in pass protection every game.

Those games were before the injuries on defense.

I don't think it is likely he will run a different offense. My guess is he picks the simplest subset of the offense and run that. A "back to basics" sort of thing. Maybe during the bye week he can come up with some of his own wrinkle.
