Huh? The two games on Saturday are lv/ne vs bengals and chargers/ne vs. bills Dallas plays right after us in the Sunday late afternoon game. 

So no NFC game on Saturday? I wonder why they did that.

They gave Dallas the Nickelodeon game lol 

Gonna be hard to beat trubisky’s mvp performance.

College players are usually both shorter and lighter than listed.

Clearly have not seen any A&M games this year. Kid’s a stud. 

I don't hate going for it, but to run a dive with 3 TE? You're not that type of team. Spread them out.

Have less of a problem with the decision to go for it. Hate the play call. 

When does Staley not go for it?

I can hear the Chargers fans, all 20 of them,  being pissed at him goin for it all the time.

Staley lucked out that it only cost them 3

Feel like that’s destined for Jimmy G this year in a losing effort

Yup. I think they are banking on either rivalry of pats vs. bills. And even if not they could potentially get Allen vs. Herbert. 

that early saturday game probably the best slot for the bengals especially if they play Raiders. I’d argue would be the least attractive matchup of all 6 games. And i love burrow and watching the bengals but nothing excites me at all about the raiders.

That was a long yard.  No way go for that inside your own 20 unless it is a couple of inches and even that is debatable.

True. However I just hate to play call of having Ekeler try to power his way to a first down. I would’ve used 2 back formation and had a fake hand off to Jackson going between the tackles. and pitch it to Ekeler who would’ve been able to get an edge on the outside with how the Raiders were selling out to stop ekeler in between the tackles. Ekeler is at his best if he can get on the perimeter and off tackle

I really just don’t like running up the gut with a smaller type of back that’s not where he does his best work and the raiders totally sold out playing that. 

Renfrow got crushed but at least he has guts unlike Reagor

Herbert holds onto the ball for way too long sometimes

Dumb penalty by the raiders there. 

The fact that he might have got both feet in on that catch is insane. Definitely didn't hang onto the ball though.

A tale as old as time. 

Chargers defense is taking a crazy amount of penalties

Idk I’d look at the top 4 teams in each conference. 6 of the 8 have some really good DT/NTs

titans— simmons

chiefs— jones

buffalo— Ed Oliver/star lotulelei

bengals— really only team that doesn’t. They are good but not great

Packers— Kenny Clark (first round pick. Very underrated) 

bucs— vea

dallas— gallimore/Watkins (eh)

rams— Donald 

so basically 6 of the top 8 teams do.

Reader and Ogunjobi aren’t scrubs. 

The kid from the Pats, rookie from Alabama and raised in Philly, apparently has had a really good rookie season, Barmore.  I couldn’t think of his name, ugh.  

Not sure I would give Mike Williams a huge contract. He has some pretty weak games at times. 

I wish we could get a little white slot receiver ala Renfrow, Beasley, Welker, Amendola, etc. 

So, it took 6 plays from goal to get it in - but going for 2 made sense?

I'll take anyone that can just catch the ball at this point. We don't even get that anymore.

If the Steelers lost, the colts would’ve made the playoffs. Big Ben doing the Eagles a solid.

Jameson Crowder could be a nice non- expensive option. Christian Kirk would be a pricier option though he would also upgrade the return game and he's much younger. Though he has some pretty weak games as well, not sure if I would dish out a hefty contract for him either.

There’s better options. DJ Chark would be my target in terms of reasonableness of contract versus talent ceiling. 

If even Reich is out on Wentz, it's a wrap for him in Indy.
