Around the NFL Week 9

[Einstein]

Through 9 weeks, we are still the only team to have let the Patriots anemic offense score more than 20 points.

 

They are averaging 13.75 points per game against everyone else. Scored 25 on us.

 

I hate the Patriots.

Indeed.  Plus, sometimes he looked to me like he has no pocket sense at all (which is cray cray because wasn’t he known for that when he came out?)

 

Dak's gay???

Brady was really somethin'. I have to give him that.

 

Every time we played him, there was just this sense of inevitability.  

 

Sometimes I think Burrow is a young TB. Similar skill set. To me right now Mahomes, Josh and Burrow are the three best QBs in the league. And they are in their prime.

Cowboys are a lot like the Chargers

Dak takes a sack, let's the clock run down, then throws short of the end zone. 

 

Wasn’t it two sacks on one drive?  Then there’s missing the sideline and stepping out on the 2 point conversion play

I was thinking yeah like the Chargers and then I thought about "13 seconds" and "wide right" and felt less like picking on the Chargers

He seems to consistently come up small in pressure situations.

Ravens are the best team i saw today…and the Dolphins have to play them and the Bills don’t

Dak will never win you a SB. He just doesn’t have it. Acts like he does, but performs like he doesn’t. I’ve never been a fan because he seems like a poser with skills to get a paycheck and attention but nothing further.

The joke is his $60m cap hit next year.  Imagine facing kicking the dak can down the road.

Mike McCarthy cost the Cowboys that game by not going for the FG down 28-17.  Would have made it a one-score game and they could have kicked a FG (twice!) for the win.  And to think I wanted this guy as the Bills coach after Rex.  I feel shame.

No.  If they kicked the FG there it would have changed the field position they got on the TD drive.  Dallas started that drive at mid field.  They may not have been able to drive the whole field.  Plus it changes the clock because even if they did drive the whole field, it would have cost more clock.

JJ math at its best.

I didn't see the Miami/KC game but seen some highlights on the pregame.  Looks like both offenses were bad.

Dolphins did beat them last year in that epic comeback.... obviously last year but still. Ravens have been injuried the last few years, wonder if they remain snakebitten

That 4th down where the TE came down on the 1/2 yard line could have been the field goal that put them within 3 and they'd have the lead right now.  Assuming their kicker made the kicks.

How many seconds ran off the clock while they were trying to figure out who recovered that?

They ended up in the exact same position anyway when they scored the TD later anyway, should have just taken the FG.

I’m hoping all these guys pick Cinci…it is almost unanimous.  Bills will definitely win now

Maybe.  But not taking the points there definitely limited their options.  The world may never know.

Josh Dobbs hero of the Vikings-Falcons game. Game winning drive for the Vikings and helped the Falcons in their perpetual quest for higher draft picks that they embark on every season.

Daniel Jones=worst QB contract in NFL history
