Bo Nix continues to make history.
No quarterback in NFL history has ever thrown for so few yards while throwing at least 25 passes and completing at least 12 of them.

The atmosphere for this Dolphins / Titans game seems about as dead as possible. Chris Fowler sounds like he would rather be getting his appendix removed.

And he knew this was coming.

Jags will be making changes . Question is how soon . Belichick would be their top candidate.

The Jags will try for Bill Belichick in the off-season, but will probably end up with Kliff Kingsbury. Which will be entertaining at least.

More likely they hire Cliff Clavin

Miami is going to end up picking in the top 5.

PGsHeroes32 · « **Reply #4383 on:** September 30, 2024, 09:30:44 PM »

Lions and Seahawks made a half time agreement to not play defense

Which is saying something, considering the 1st half D left a lot to be desired

DegenerateDish · « **Reply #4384 on:** September 30, 2024, 09:46:34 PM »

WTF was that referee’s ruling on the free onside kick? Made no sense what he announced, and he clearly had zero confidence in his ruling. Rules analyst had no idea either.

Good time for a bye week for Detroit. Need to practice defense.

I don't feel like wading through this, but IIRC, didn't someone make the argument that QBs that don't succeed one place rarely succeed elsewhere? Geno Smith, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, Derek Carr.

QB is a.tough position. It takes time to learn.

I've talked about that before.

Definitely a few good examples. But certainly seems to be not the norm

I think the only one of that really holds true as an anamoly is Darnold. Cause he had 4 seasons of being a bad starter.

Derek Carr was a multiple time pro bowler and threw for almost 5000 yards in his second to last season in LV. They chose to make a move but I don't think he "didn't succeed".

Baker was in contention for ROY and then lead the Browns to the playoffs in 2021. The Browns chose not to pay him after that nagging shoulder injury.

Then Geno is a weird one, cause most failed starters don't get to sit as a #2 and get time to learn and get second chances like he did.

My ff teams are looking great, particularly from an early round pick perspective: bijan, Tyreek, cooper, rashee, achane

Mayfield was a disaster with the Panthers. Maybe still hurt, and obviously he had little support via coaching or talent around him. But he also had trouble completing routine 10-yard passes.

Yea I think it was a combo meal. I don't think he was every fully healthy that season and was on a dumpster fire of a team. Not shocking that team had 2 QBs who have now became good starters in different situations.

I was just saying that I think Mayfield definitely fits in tower's discussion of overcoming the stigma of "QBs that don't succeed one place rarely succeed elsewhere." Because Baker definitely didn't succeed in 2022 with the Rams and especially the Panthers - for a variety of reasons - before going on to succeed with the Bucs.

How long until Davante is a Jet?

Pretty sad to see the Eddie Lacy news.

Falcons are an insanely stupidly coached team

Passing it at will. And doing insane run plays for no gain or loss repeatedly in the second half

The only time a pass doesnt work is when Mooney drops a ball where hes got no one within 10 yards of him.

Didnt try a 55 yard FG before half.

Just a dumb team

Herman Cain · « **Reply #4396 on:** October 03, 2024, 10:39:16 PM »

#12 for Atlanta had some serious acceleration on that game winning TD play

Cousins throws bullets which doesn't hurt either.

PGsHeroes32 · « **Reply #4397 on:** October 03, 2024, 10:41:08 PM »

And what do you know.

Falcons just air it out and they win.
