  1. Bryce Young does not look the part so far...I'm always leery of undersized qbs going so high in the draft.
  2. It was just the Cubs' turn in the "look out for that team" role in the game of NL Central standings roulette. 1st the Pirates, then the Reds, then the Cubs....kind of ironic the dirty birds were the one team that sucked consistently enough to never factor in the discussion or realistic division title angst this season. I'm just hoping this September swoon doesn't prevent the Cubs from throwing Bellinger a spectacularly dumb longterm contract, giving Steele a huge contract when he's likely overdue for arm troubles with his heavy 2023 workload, or even better giving PCA a 13 yr extension this offseason for him to make a lot of great catches while failing to hit.
  3. There's a reason why he was considered the best player in this year's draft (and why if he fell even a little bit I was fully on board GB using the draft capital they had to move up a little to get him), regardless of position. He just gets to holes instantly and has the vision/burst to make the 1st guy miss even in the hole - barring injury I think he'll be considered the best back in the league by this time next year.
  4. In general I mostly agree with all of this - there's a reason why blowout games are few and far between in the NFL...specific to yesterday's game, I just think the Packers had enough of those gift-wrapped opportunities to dramatically impact both score and game flow early on they blew, and as is typical those miscues wind up biting them in the W-L column at the end of a road game they were in firm control of for 3 quarters. Does the defense appear to suck against the run once again? Yes - but ATL is one of a handful of teams that are built to focus on running the football, so they're going to gouge a bunch of defenses this year in that department when their opponents fail to make plays to force them to ditch the running game. Catching those two easy INTs dramatically changes the flow of the game and probably gets the score to a point where the Falcons just don't go on a running play binge midway through the 3rd quarter when they were down 12. Offensively, even with the two scoring drives to open up the 3rd quarter the Packers didn't maintain possession long at all - their TD drives were 4 and 2 minute variety, followed by 2 straight 3 and outs when they needed a drive and then that last possession that also went nowhere.
  5. GB also had close too 100 yards of offense due to PI penalties that don't show up on the stat sheet, so the offensive yardage output isnt nearly as bad as the numbers actually look ...that being said, running only 44ish offensive plays isn't good enough for them as an offense, and that did wear down a defense on top of the fact they once again struggled to stop the run. The offense got away from a really good midgame rhythm, and couldn't find a drive the team really needed late third/early 4th quarter. With all that they still had a shot to drive down to kick a fg at the end to win it and couldn't get it done. I'd argue the plays the Packers didn't make were much more impactful to the outcome and overall flow of the game than a guy not getting two feet in bounds on a catch and the team having to settle for 3 instead of 6 on a drive.
  6. It's not even what happened in the 4th quarter with the defense getting rolled and the offense not being able to make a play or two when they needed it most - If Jaire picks off a gimme INT in the 1st half it'd be a coin flip if he'd make 1 guy miss and score or set the offense up in instant FG range, and the same could be said of the dropped INT early in the 2nd half by Quay. Add those missed opportunities to make plays handed to them to the botched FG attempt on their 1st drive due to a false start and delay of game (at the time I was more P-Oed at the special teams unit for taking 40 minutes to get set up instead of 40 seconds, but it is on MLF to not just take that penalty and burn a timeout, too), we're talking about being up more than 2 TDs headed into the 4th quarter and the sustained running game the Falcons were able to get going in the 2nd half probably never even starts. It's just a game full of missed opportunities, and they let a team who does one thing really well offensively get into a good rhythm with it, and couldn't come up with a big drive when they needed it in the 4th quarter. This should be a 2-0 squad and it stinks they're not due to largely self-inflicted mistakes.
  7. What a waste of a winnable game
  8. And another very tick tack call in the secondary
  9. Early returns on this year's draft are pretty damn good
  10. Love the aggressiveness there
  11. In the midst of a blowout road victory for the 2nd straight week despite a ton of key players out on offense.
  12. If gb loses this game, it's because they can't catch the ball on defense
  13. Yeah, but then again Ridder will be good for several more bad throws yet today...I just don't think he's very good.
  14. Contact started with him in bounds and he honestly barely touched him Was surprised a flag didn't fly though
  15. Ugh ...catch those please
  16. Robinson is going to be the best rb in the league very soon
  17. Really, really liking the dline at the start of this year. Clark is abusing people today
  18. Also looks like the Packers may have themselves a legit TE
  19. Now that was a burst
  20. This is a terrible game crew, and they apparently are doing the entire broadcast with just two go pros from the 40 yard line
  21. Still haven't seen a replay but it sure looked like Dillon got the 1st there
  22. Terrible, horrible spot there I think
  23. Nijman in at LT now
  24. yes - talking about how great Ridder is playing, then his line comes up (2-5 with an INT, just as he almost throws another one in the endzone)
  25. I don't think ATL is good enough on offense to make this game a laugher no matter how disorganized GB's offense looks at the start of this game. Their QB is going to give a ballhawking secondary plenty of chances to change the game with turnovers. Question is if Love can make some plays down the field against an ATL secondary that's also a bit banged up
