Am I the only person that wants a run here on 3rd down? I don’t trust Carr at all lol

They ended the game with 2 timeouts. 3 fade passes should have been replaced by a run or two. What a bad redzone offense!

yup. Early downs should’ve been runs. Kamara/taysom are beasts in the red zone, forces the jags to use timeouts and likely gets closer to the goal line to force the jags to continue to play run defense. 
 

4th and 5 a corner isn’t even peeking into the backfield. 4th and 1-2 and they have to wonder about stepping up to tackle.

 

also it reduces the risk of turnover/penalty with a battered line and clearly hurting qb.

Al Michaels has become horrible.  No enthusiasm.  No excitement for the moment.  And Herbstreet needs to stick to Purdue or Arkansas games

Only watched a little bit of the game last night, but just watched the 7 minute highlight reel and you’re absolutely right about Al M. He sounds terrible…nothing like how he used to be just a few years ago. On the one Saints TD, he didn’t even call it a TD in real time because he thought the receiver stepped OOB at the one….the video showed that the guy was nowhere near being OOB (even as it happened live)….and finally he said, “they’re now ruling it a TD.” LOL

 

I’m sad to post this because he definitely was one of the great ones, but it is over, and he needs to retire.

Nah. Lawrence and Etienne won't hold up through the year. There will be a derailment for JVille somewhere along the line. 

Agree, they aren’t that good at all.

Re Al M. taking Amazon’s money: Totally agree. Same reason why we see loads of bands from 40-50years ago….with members who are in their 70s and even 80s….still out there on the road. It ain’t for “the love of music!” LOL But at least in the latter cases, the music does bring back good memories for a lot of people even if the vocals and musical playing abilities have gone to hell.

 

I never have, and never will, understand how networks pay big money for announcers….nobody tunes in to a game to hear the announcers, ever. If there’s a crap game on MNF, no one is saying, “well, they got Buck & Aikman, so I got to tune in and hear how they’ll call it.” LOL We watch games because it’s “our team”, or it’s a great matchup, or it’s the playoffs, and we never will not watch because of who’s in the booth. It’s mind boggling.
