Now just be smart and get your points.

Holding on that was insane lol

Yeah I think this will be overturned.

Yup agreed, better to keep the talent that doesn't need proving than overpay for lesser talent.

Great catch. I am firmly in the camp that thinks they should sign them both.

That was a good play call, maybe they expected a run up the gut

It's the fourth quarter. Take the points.

Cody Ford really not impressing

Ticky tack

Timeouts can be useful later.

CJ yes

I noticed it very late, but the dude actually has a broken hand, noted on the injury report.

Nix basically passed it in a panic right to Ossai lol. Good stop, Zac needs to get his head out of his ass and take some points against a good defense.

Slight deflection damn

Is Kevin Harlan drunk? He acted like Nix was super close to the first down "let's seeeeee where they spot hiiimmmm... about a yard shy!!". Yeah it's 4th and 3. Obvious. 😕

No doubt, last week Johnson made a nice play and I had to review the roster to remember who #52 was.

Hard to recognize this season eh

lol Hilton held like a bitch

Fig late, was right there. 😕

That seems to be a pattern amongst these "worst teams to make the playoffs" - their defense was the "good" unit.

Did a quick search, the "worst" team to still make the playoffs appears to be the 2020 WFT with a 7-9 record. They had 3 wins at home, and since we have to win out to make it, that would mean at worst we'd tie the worst home record to make the playoffs.

"... goes straight emu face.." That was definitely a brutal moment. That was a fun breakdown, I think Joe was saying "easy" not "eighty" but it doesn't matter. I'll have to disagree with the esteemed Mr. Carson Palmer and say I'd be much more concerned if Joe WASN'T frustrated. Joe's 100% correct, that shit is embarrassing and they're supposed to be running a professional operation, the game was just chalk full of embarrassing, classic, "bungle" moments. I'd also argue Zac shouldn't be doing the "aw shucks man, 3 times? C'mon man..". Fucking bench them. Send a message. It's Cam Grandy ffs, this is the part of the roster that's supposed to churn, don't pat them on the head.

It's been kind of fun watching talking heads basically admit that Joe is the real MVP, but coming up with their own reasons why wins are all that matter and segue into talking about the REAL MVP candidates. As long as they can acknowledge the reality, I'm good.

On the last "series" of the game, several players were jogging, waving at ball carriers... to the point the announcers actually said "oh hey this is SMART, they're LETTING THEM SCORE, to END the game!". No it isn't, and no they weren't. A much better way to end the game is tackle them 3-4 times behind the line to gain... makes for better film too! The most egregious perpetrators were Pratt and Murphy. Pratt's a starter by the way. Nearly the entire D looked done, though. Who said "good"? Oh, it was you. Strawmen again, I see. Anyway, these guys have been playing football since grade school and this guy has been on an NFL team all year. It's totally possible he was just nervous/overplaying in the moment, but he most definitely was not playing with proper technique for several play sets (but was in others). The only thing an aspiring player has to hang their hat on is playing with proper technique, getting to fits/sets/spots and doing their job as coached. Playing "quiet", playing "simple", call it whatever you want. For some of us these things are not mysterious/magical/supernatural wonder concepts, but YMMV, not everyone was the son of a phys ed teacher/successful coach/athlete and grew up with it since toddlerhood. FWIW I blame the coaches, completely. Lack of preparation is a hallmark of the Taylor regime. I would but previous posts demonstrate you can't fathom the concepts and/or you choose to take them off on some wild adventure, deriding fields full of strawmen. I won't deny you that "pleasure". Lou Anarumo's defense uses two LB's in its vanilla sets, somewhat uniquely. Coach Callahan coached with Lou Anarumo for 5 years. Coach Callahan coached with that defense in practice all the time, and thus understands what that defense is all about *guaranteed*. Of course I was only being facetious, but this explanation is granted anyway, brought to you by "Holy Fuck This Humourless Turd Is Actually Calling Out Nonsense For Nonsense's Sake, Who Hurt Him?"

Imagine having this little pride in your craft. Fuck me.
