Reminds me of the pre-Kelly era. Not sure why they dropped the blue pants in 1986? Must have been out of fashion at the time.

Is it too soon to point out Joshy kicked his feet like a petulant child on the ground after getting run over from behind? The rest of the team saw that and responded accordingly by not giving a crap. The gig is up, and it isn't just the coach this year. The players don't want to go the extra mile for Josh any more.

Dalton will be back for the Bengals game. Hamstrings take 3-4 weeks to heal. I said that the day of the injury in Miami and got my post deleted by a mod here. Or how about when McGovern hits the deck? It looks like he needs Medalert, because he's fallen and can't get up. I mean he does get up to his credit, but he looks about 57 years old.

TBD's favorite radio host from the stone ages Chuck Dickerson would say that's a bunch of horse poopy and things coaches say when they're whistling past the graveyard.

Get Allen back on schedule 90% of the time. This scramble stuff is fun occasionally, but not sustainable long term when it's 50% of your offense by indirect design.

I don't think it is the trainer or methods of recovery - it really speaks back to the coach/GM bias to target undersized defenders to meet their bias towards stopping the pass. I think in 2-3 years we'll be complaining about the plodding slow defense we'll end up with as the pendulum swings the other direction. But we'll have less injuries!

His takes during COVID times were brutal.

The Pegula factor (aka Sabres-esque moves) dictates it will be - Rick Dennison.

Damar leads into all of his tackles with his sternum, and this injury surprises you? This is the least surprising thing to happen since Rex hired his brother.

Small things amuse small minds.

I agree with this point, it's always been a complaint of many people when doing an all-22 analysis. I think it's been magnified over the past year & a half due to Josh's evolution to eliminate INTs and avoid risk more often.

I say FU Jobu, I'll do it myself.

I go to the games. I buy my season tickets. But it's more out of reflex at this point. I don't blindly cheer for them anymore, almost 40 years in the NFL meat grinder has worn me down. They win, that's great - high fives. Lose, oh well. Always next decade. The athletes here today will be the enemy tomorrow (Diggs, Hollins) - it all seems trite at times. I do like talking about what the coaching staff we're stuck with FOREVER can do to eek out a few more wins this season. But that isn't what we're talking about here.

Get ready, because the future you've described will most likely be the reality. Only 1/32 get to be the top dawg every year.

So you're all torqued up for Lane Kiffin (which I do like, but he'll remain a college coach), but you also admit that change will not happen until Josh is at least 32 years old. Why put yourself thru all that wasted energy? This team is just a billionaire's fun time hobby.
