I think damn near everyone in the GDT was asking who he was.

 

I never laughed so hard after not knowing who a player was who caught a TD for us. 

1 offensive snap and 1 TD. Now that he'll be starting look for around 74 TD's next game.

Elway needs to go. Great player but bad GM

Really, Herbig wasn't a bum. maybe the left side is set if Kelce retires and Seu moves to center.

No offense, but Herbig would be better at RG. If Brooks is back and Seumalo moves to C I could see it but it would not be optimal. I much prefer Driscoll at LG if he proves out. Alternatively, I would prefer Driscoll at C and Seumalo at LG than I would Herbig at LG in any combination. I keep saying this but I’ll say it again: in our system, LG is a MOVE position. Herbig is not that guy. He’s playing there because we have no one else. The experience at LG can you nly help.

 

Don't know if anyone here is over there

The Bills getting all their points on bad calls is going to make this a competitive game at the end.

I don't know much about the Giants.  Without Barkley I have no idea what they are.  What are their strengths?  Weaknesses?  The Eagles should be the better team but the injuries are just ridiculous.  

Daniel Jones shouldn't beat them.  

An even better look at Mailata on the tackle.  What I really like after he throws Clark down again is he shows some attitude behind it.  Man bring that nasty back to the line.

 

Plays like this will win him a ton of fans in this city.  Runyan’s meanness with better athleticism, nice.

That was an awful call on the holding as well. Chiefs got a TD anyway but if that’s holding then you better call it on every single play.

Gerry is terrible but will make ok play every know and then. He certainly doesn't just stand their mid play to adjust his gloves

Well I’m pumped now; Howie should extend him.

All he does is catch touchdowns!

Man this chiefs/Bills game is brutal with penalties against the chiefs. Like the holding call to take away CEH td and then that could’ve been PI on diggs and breeland 

The more I think about the OL situation, I think there is a good path to take forward here.  

This team has enough needs; you don't burn that first round pick on a LT at this point.  Fix something else.  

Go into training camp giving Dillard every opportunity to take the LT job.  Mailata is your insurance and continues his development as the swing tackle.  Lane Johnson showed us how symmetrical this league has become and how critical it is to have a RT with LT athleticism.  Mailata's size/strength combined with LT athleticism could make for an incredible RT.  

With the OL slaughter this year, they would never move a stud like Lane this offseason.  But if Dillard holds his own early next season and Mailata continues his development, I'd look to move Lane at the 2021 trade deadline.  If Lane stays healthy between his pending return and that trade deadline (he probably won't), he could fetch a very, very nice return.

You have to give up something to get something.  And unlike Desean/Alshon/everyone else we talk about unloading, this is something.

I think a future of Dillard/Mailata as the bookends gives this team a new, youthful window of opportunity.

Jackson and Jeffrey sore vaginas.

I find a second opinion on an ankle sprain amusing.  I realize all teams do this all the time.  It is no less amusing.

Thank you...what was the actual injury for Sanders?

He’ll come back sooner rather than later.

Didn't say anything besides knee injury. Guessing just a mild sprain

Yup.  Agreed 100%.

Doesn't it depend on the severity of the sprain.  Isn't a complete tear technically a 'sprain'?

I think Herbig's upside is solid backup OG to marginal starter, but he's clearly a better fit at RG.

The real question is Seumalo LG Driscoll C versus Driscoll LG Seumalo C.

Would definitely like to see herbig moved back to RG and opeta in at LG tbh. I want to see why opeta can do. Could be as bad as brown and pryor so why not. If he’s bad so are they 

Will always love this guy

I have no clue.  Ask @HazletonEagle

He's going to work out on the side, rehab, and return when the swelling and pain are better.  A national tour of renowned orthopedic surgeons doesn't change that.
