TNF: Carolina at Chicago

Well, that’s all she wrote.

The guy who pushes the flag button at Amazon saw a great play and went full Pavlov dog mode.

Great return. 
 

The last stutter cut inside vs the punter is an elite move

They should teach safeties to punt so that wouldn’t happen.

Did I just see Bryce Young walk by Josh McCown, the Panthers QB coach, as the coach was trying to talk to him?

I saw Bryce Young walking onto the field after talking to his QB coach.  I didn't read into it.

Is that the McCown that the Texans tried to hire directly to a HC job?

Someone made a post couple weeks ago asking do you watch football if bills are not on. Tonight is a challenge like no other. 2 NFC teams that mean nothing to bills and arguably the  2 worse teams in football. Brutal but I’ll be tuned in until the end

My only motivation was to watch Tremaine miss tackles.  Oh well, another time....

But what is it supposed to do in that situation? It’s alway about half to a full second before the snap. Is it some kind of silent count thing? I don’t remember seeing it throughout my years watching football but now it seems every team does it. 

I'd have to say it's just to let the line know, hey we're going.  If you actually watch it close as the game progresses, sometimes they will  start to use it almost like a hard count and not snap it right away.

what’s the O/U for Jets-Raiders?  Like 18.5?

That game has the chance to be a 6-3 game or somehow a 44-41 game. No in between. 😂

It's to signal to the center to snap the ball when the QB is in shotgun during a silent count.  Normally if the QB is under center he would tap the center to indicate the snap.

Wow disrespect to these teams bringing Jason Kelce on the broadcast. This has the feel of a preseason match up. I know they aren’t world beaters but that’s dirty

He was on the pregame as well.  You wonder why they bring an Eagles player to a Panthers/Bears game.  Is he auditioning for a post NFL career?

Probably.

 

No issue with the pre and post game. Lots of coaches and players moonlight as talking heads in the studio during bye weeks.

 

Just during the game on the main broadcast, talking about his career plans, the tush push, etc….

 

Just bugs me they are acknowledging the talent on the field isn’t getting the attention they want so they try and fluff it up….weak imo

You gotta think.

A few of these recent passes by both QBs have been dreadful.  Chicago can’t get Fields back soon enough.  

[stevestojan]

Young isn’t just NFL QB short. He’s legit just short, huh? 

[PromoTheRobot]

These games are so boring, they need guests, like a talk show.

[Process]

It's so hard to imagine Young ever becoming anything but a gigantic bust. 

 

He looks atrocious. Sure he's a rookie. But he shows zero signs of potential. Nothing. 

[zow2]

Bryce Young looks like a 17 year old trying to play NFL QB.  I’m sure he will get better and he has some talent.  But man, in hindsight it’s hard to believe they didn’t take Richardson or Stroud, just based on prototype size and potential.
