Not sure if Bucky's fumble was discussed already, but I had always thought a "wrist" is down by contact, in that any part of the body other than a hand or foot is the same as a knee. Seems like we got away with that one, which is fine by me.

I think wrist can but if it was his forearm it would’ve been down. Tbh I thought his shin was also down before the ball came out. So I’m with you that i feel we got away with one.

Brown needs to STFU. I don't care that you aren't getting catches. We are winning. Shut it. Quit being a baby. Sick of it. Passive aggressive drama starting tweets and all.

Apparently, winning as a deodorant is only so strong.

There's gotta be a plan for him on offense right? You don't trade 2 picks for a back up KR. It makes no sense. I get that the Eagles have draft picks, but at least use them to bring in guys who can contribute.

This has been the most confusing and frustrating 4-0 start I can remember. The offense sucks. The OL and DL can't do a damn thing. The best unit on the team might be the LB, which blows my mind. We should be excited to be 4-0 and they've yet to play a full game. Their best players aren't playing near what they are capable of and they are getting every other teams best shot. This type of play just isn't sustainable though. They need to wake the hell up.

I’d doubt they have a plan for him on offense. Dillon and Shipley can barely get carries as it is.

No. Wrist and hand are 'part of the ball'. And the ball hitting first isn't down. Forearm is down, but the wrist is not. To make it more anatomical, phalanges, tarsals and carpals, metacarpals, metatarsals are not down. Radius, ulna, humerus, tibia, fibula, femur and pelvis are all down.

A lack of first downs makes the number of plays harder to manage.

Wow. More facetime for Jerrah. He really did win the Micah Parsons trade. Just think, without that trade, he wouldn't be getting all this face time. Good for him. And good for us, because the fool is just living his best life turning his greatest asset into a dumpster fire.

I don’t understand how anyone can advocate trading him away while knowing the record of this team when he plays and what this offense has looked like without him. If the team implodes and they’re floating around under .500 I can somewhat see it. But if they’re 7-1 what is the logic in that?

Logically, the offense sucks giant donkey D right now even with AJ. Swapping him for another lock down corner to pair with Q makes this defense even more formidable. You can also choose a safety if you think that would be better. But the logic is you trade for someone who takes this defense to another level since the offense is anemic anyway.

Oh yeah... Brian Schottenheimer is the HC in Dallas. With all the Jerrah time, I almost forgot they have a new coach this year.

If you are going to trade for a safety might as well bring CJGJ back. He’s a free agent and available. That said i like Mukuba but there’s a learning curve and he’s going to make some rookie mistakes at times.

He probably sees things that mirror 2023 and is not thrilled about it regardless of the victories. The biggest difference is that this team has a legit defense which is why we aren't 1-3

I’d add we are also not turning the ball over at the rate we were early in 2023. Defense and special teams have won us games and kept us in games we probably shouldn’t have.

I don't care. He can feel however he wants. But, he needs to keep that nonsense in house.

The last Super Bowl just goes to show... defenses still win championships.

Wow. Bad defense and bad offense. Two receivers in the same area... and neither one was covered.

I'm just saying in an extremely hypothetical "why would anyone trade AJ brown" mine would be for someone who elevates this defense to otherworldly, which IMO would be Surtain. But I offered safety as an alternative if someone thought it would help more than another corner

Two receivers in’s same place 😭

There’s no way they can trade AJ Brown because it’s going to absolutely destroy their cap. I’d be more for it if you knew you weren’t going to extend him and he was coming towards the end of the contract like you said. Then again aren’t likely getting what you want due to him wanting out and contract almost over.

He should, but he won't. This'll blow over in a few days and go unmentioned unless there's another 2023-esque implosion and we'll all be talking about it again.

Correct, it was a hypothetical based off a troll post about actually trading him. I don't want to, he's an animal when he actually gets thrown to and as stated the cap implications are horrendous. But if this were a game of madden with no consequence I would easily ship him off without a second thought if it brought someone who makes this defense a sub 15ppg unit

If you were forced to pick your Super Bowl matchup as of today (after 4 weeks) who would you have?

Torn in the afc. Tbh i could see rice and worthy out there together and chiefs figure some of their offensive woes out. I’d take Buffalo right now but i wouldn’t rule out KC

Bills vs Rams Super Bowl

We are 4-0 and Mukuba is learning on the job in some high leverage situations, it would be stupid to put him back to the bench and show the 2nd round pick was a waste.

Christian Gonzalez is the one who comes to mind for me.
