Re: NFL 2023 Week 10

Whoever gets the ball last is going to win this Charger/Lion game. That’s the EIGHTH 4th down try in this game. officially eight, unofficially nine. and the way the game should be managed too. eight of the nine were within two yards, all in opposing territory 4th and 5 converted 4th and 1 converted...

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

The Chiefs play more press than any team in the NFL, year in and year out. The idea is that they block those guys and it’s a housecall. Otherwise why even call it against them? That’s also a good question. My point remains that Tua won’t become an elite QB until he recognizes the danger in how that...

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

So three (Young, Murray, Mayfield) of the last 5 QBs taken #1 overall haven't been of ideal QB size and the two (Lawrence, Burrow) that were are way ahead, right? If you go back further, the size = franchise QB thing falls apart, but it might be a lesson in not ignoring it. I feel that Young is sep...

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

Low risk play? Hill got blown the hell up and the ball went 75 yards in the opposite direction. Sure, the Chiefs made a great play call, and yeah, their defenders blew up the Dolphins’ blocking assignments, but that doesn’t mean Tua shouldn’t have recognized the potential for danger. If Tua didn’t ...

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

It seems to me that Tua absolutely led Hill into that strip-six TD by the Chiefs.
