Gruden should go back to the booth. It’s like he’s coaching a team he doesn’t take responsibility for. And he’s treating Fitzpatrick like he’s Patrick Mahomes. And he put more pressure on his defense by not scoring the TD. Just because Mahomes carved you up in a minute doesnt mean Fitzpatrick is gonna. He’s more likely to throw a game losing pick than a game winning TD.
Why did Murray keep throwing the ball 5 yards over the middle with a minute left? The 49ers injury actually bailed them out or they would’ve had even less time. Bizarre.
Dolphins, Steelers, Colts, ravens, Browns, Titans, chiefs. In that order. Of course you gotta beat good teams in the playoffs no matter what, so it doesn’t really matter. Avoiding KC as long as possible probably only thing that really matters.
I don’t like to see a guy get hurt, but edwards Helaire has kind of been a JAG in his rookie year. Runs with no power and can’t out-run defenders. Don’t think it’s a big loss for Chiefs. Could actually kickstart Bell to find his old form who I think is the better back.
Chiefs have great defensive gameplan. No respect for Brees being able to throw the ball downfield. Crowd all the short routes and force Brees to throw it over the top.
I think this guarantees 1st pick for Jax. Belichik will make sure Jets win the last game if it comes to that. Means Jax would have to win their next 2.
Also a product of the farther you get away from your time as a player, the more the League has changed since you played and the less insight you have to offer.
If I’m the Jets and I don’t get the #1 pick, I’m keeping Darnold. With a new coach, he is salvageable and better than any college QB not named Lawrence.
I think Rhule and the Panthers are stuck in QB purgatory. They’re not going anywhere with Bridgewater and I’m not sure any of the QB’s after Lawrence are worth a high 1st round pick. Maybe they make a play for Wentz.
That was a tough run by mariota. He’s had a couple of those today. Raiders have no business being in this game. Chargers have thoroughly outplayed them.
