  1. I mean, seriously, that is huge. No blitzing, yet plenty of pressure. That’s a recipe for success, especially against an offense like this. Kudos to this defensive line. And all of this without Milano…
  2. Narrator: IT WAS NOT
  3. I just want them to win so badly. I want them to pummel KC’s spirits into the ground. Is that asking too much?
  4. What, no love for Hughes? Not saying he's at the top, but still...
  5. Really looking forward to seeing how he does against the Chef's D-line.
  6. I was really hoping to see this happen, great move.
  7. Can't believe it took this long into the thread!
  8. Whereupon Klein will say a quick hello (and goodbye) to Kelce.
  9. Kinda weird, last season I thought we should sit Milano for the Rams game since it wasn't as critical a game and it would give him time to heal—the overwhelming response here was that every game is important and he should play if there was any chance he could go. No sitting and resting. Seems the opposite this year. Huge game with playoff seeding implications, but now people think he should rest? Why were people less concerned last year about keeping Milano healthy for the long term?
  10. Yep, the main reason we got bounced in KC last year is because our O-line couldn't block for the run *or* the pass. It was horrific. The main reason we lost in BUF last year is essentially because their O-line beat up our D-line, primarily on running plays. We basically invited them to run it, and we didn't do a good enough job stopping it. I think we'll use the same strategy this time, and we'll see if the rejuvenated D-line (especially with Star) can hold up this time.
  11. Welp, guess that means he'll be a Bill in a year or two.
  12. That was awesome, if only because now I know what he’s been saying at the snap. I always thought it was “120”.
  13. Whenever I see the name "Maddy Glab" I can't help but think the name is supposed to be an anagram of some secret person's name
  14. Interestingly, the 1991 WFT and the 2000 Ravens both shut out 3 opponents in the first 5 games, not just 2 in the first 4. WFT defeated Detroit (45-0), Phoenix (34-0), and Philly (23-0). Detroit finished 12-4 that year and Philly finished 10-6, so pretty good teams. Phoenix finished 4-12. The Ravens defeated Pittsburgh (16-0), Cincinnati (37-0), and Cleveland (12-0). Pittsburgh was the only one who finished with a winning record at 9-7. Both Cincinnati (4-12) and Cleveland (3-13) were in the basement. FWIW, Baltimore didn't even finish 1st in their division that year; they were the #4 seed at 12-4.
  15. One thing's for sure, there won't be any problem distinguishing the fan reaction at the next home game.
  16. Like most games, but in particular this one, I think it comes down to the trenches. Whichever team can effectively get pressure on the opposing QB while limiting the running game will probably come out the winner. I’m a little nervous about how much pressure our O-line has been allowing. We’ll see if the D-line can hold up against the Chiefs attack.
  17. I’d be a wee concerned if Taron is also unable to play, but we’ll see.
  18. Aha, you are right. I think they gave one of them to Philly.
  19. Sure, of course, but with 2 firsts next year and 2 firsts the year after, that's potentially a lot of draft capital to work with that maybe a lot of others (particularly those in need of a QB) don't have.
  20. Did I hear Cunningham is out this week due to COVID?
  21. Could it be because Miami also has 2 first-rounders in 2023?
  22. Guess we'll find out, since Feliciano is out this week...
  23. The best part of @4merper4mer threads is that they just keep pulling in newbies like a continuously resetting venus fly trap.
