  1. Yeah, they're just a bad team. Their softer schedule doesn't matter because they are just bad. Vikings stink too, obviously not as bad, but, at this point I think it's probably better off they make the playoffs and keep someone actually good that gets hot, out of it.
  2. I don't think the Bucks are 1-6 bad. I think they'll get it together enough to be a top 5 team in the East. I just don't think they're a championship team anymore. And yes, Doc is horrendous.
  3. I think going for 2 in those situations is almost always a 50/50 and if you miss it you get criticized but if you don't go for it and lose you also get criticized. The way both offenses were playing, I would have gone for it. Wouldn't like my chances if I didn't win the toss in OT.
  4. If I gave Mahomes the ball with 27 seconds left and a 1pt lead, I would honestly think it's more likely that I lose than not.
  5. The Bucs are a very interesting team. They have some very high quality wins, nearly knocked off KC, but are still middling and have some bad losses. Wins against WAS, DET, PHL, and a 51-point game in NO. Two OT losses to KC and ATL.
  6. It's just a show to publicly and definitively have Love's back. I don't think it's a big deal. It's their job to ask the questions, it's not his job to point out how bad he's playing and give them easy articles to write.
  7. It was obvious that Jacobs was a huge part of the plan and I think he would have had 30+ touches if the game had remained close. And they really were not stopping him at all. That was the worst part about that pick. It set them into a panic and of course one possession into the half they were down 24-3. It basically took him out of the game. I know nobody likes it but in certain situations I am content to run out the clock and yes, even kick the ball to start the half. There's just so much that goes wrong like it did yesterday. With the amount of slop that had already taken place, that was the exact situation I would have ran the ball on first down to see what kind of gain you get and then be content to just go to half down 10-3.
  8. That ball is pretty darn close to being where it should be if Watson just keeps running. It's out of the danger zone where the other safety would kill him too. I hope he was asked about that play. I'm genuinely curious if he just lost the ball or Love threw it where we wasn't supposed to.
  9. Yeah, what? Lol. It lands almost on the nose at the 25. That was a bizarre play. And Watson absolutely toasted that defender right out of his break.
  10. Love isn't having a good season. He's been throwing enough TDs to keep the hot takes mostly quiet. He has a QBR in the 50s and a completion % flirting with sub-60 to go with league-leading INTs despite missing 2.5 games. 5-straight wins and 6-2 made it hard for anyone to bring up, but he has not been good. I am not long-term concerned about him being the QB, but he is struggling and just hasn't been good. I have said this in prior weeks, but he is the biggest problem on the team right now. They won't ever be good across the board, but you need way more out of the guy you mortgaged everything on. It's kind of a reason for optimism that they're still in playoff position with how much he has struggled.
  11. I really don't think any of this has anything to do with weather. They just sucked at too many key moments. They've been dropping the ball in summer-like conditions all year. They were moving the ball ok most of the game and then suddenly they just wouldn't. I have been wondering to myself all year if they actually need help at WR. They have a stable of 2s or 3s but I am not sure they have a real stud at that position that can be counted on all the time. Maybe they are just too young to have to that yet. Reed would be that guy if they have one, I guess. But they held a team that has just scored 42, 47, 52 and 31 to 17 offensive points. Two touchdowns scored on 4th down. They were also gashing them right up the gut at will until they got so far behind they couldn't run. Horrible in game decisions from the coach, thought stalling out on the opening drive and kicking a FG was big, too many huge drops...just so many unforced errors. I just think weather is a low hanging fruit. They've been completely schizophrenic all year in mostly sunny conditions.
  12. The rest of the Jets schedule is pretty soft. They suck, but if the Rodgers-Adams-Wilson trio can get going they don't really play anyone that you can't see them beating. At the same time I've thought that every week this season, so...
  13. Literally came here to ask if the Brewers had ever won two in a season.
  14. Well, sort of, but there been a lot of those analogies flying around, from fans and talking heads. And everyone keeps saying "he's Brett Favre." I know what it means but I can't help but think people have forgotten how good Brett Favre actually was before about 2000. When he was winning MVPs a lot of that riverboat gambler stuff was minimized. Love has been frustrating to watch. He really needs to learn when to give up on a play. He can do everything you need but these picks are killing them and at least half are completely unnecessary.
  15. ...But there aren't any other top NFC contenders. All the other teams have shown pretty wild inconsistency. Who are these teams? Washington? They are a hail mary from the same record and a bunch of Jaguars-esque wins. It's a cluster of like 8 teams that are all kinda similar. You can probably toss the Rams in there too now. I guess I would put Philly #2 and GB #4 based on the season thus far, but just not a lot of separation at all.
  16. Detroit has to be your favorite in the NFC but I am only saying that this lacked the feel of say, 2020 I think it was? When SF was the front runner, we played them, got destroyed and literally couldn't throw a pass without immediate pressure in Aaron's face and it was apparent that we were good, but were never going to beat them. Then we played them again and the exact same thing happened. Everybody knew we were going to lose and we did. We can play with the Lions. It's a tall order to beat them, but play well and you can. I don't think we could have ever beaten SF. The Packers have a Jordan Love problem though. There hasn't been a loss that's all on him, but 6-2 has masked how bad he has played. Is he the worst QB in the league? No, but let's be honest, they are 2.5-3 or whatever you want to call it with him this year and he has been sloppy to be generous about things. I don't know what the Packers can fix this season, genuinely I don't. The easy thing would be to stop throwing so many damn picks, but the rest of the stuff, penalties, a mediocre front 7...kinda just feels like who they are. I don't think they are a good enough team to have a playoff game where I'll be very sure they're going to win regardless of who it is. But when they're "on" they can look really good. And I think a reset of the talent on defense is likely in order. I think there are some names there due to draft status that just aren't very good players at all.
  17. I mean they were dominated by the end, pretty thoroughly. The 400 yards don't mean a whole lot but the way Jacobs was gashing them early does. The best thing they had going for them was Jacobs running at will, which became moot when you are down 3 scores. Yes they were dominated but I will maintain it's a completely different game if Kraft catches that early 3rd down, OR Love doesn't throw that inexcusable pick, and who knows, maybe even if we don't commit that hold in the 3rd to extend that drive and go down 24-3. Or not. Maybe they get crushed regardless, but yeah I agree completely just an awful game and the kind of awful game that goes on the coach. Just never had a rhythm and it was a shot in the foot any time they had a pulse. Even on the last lunge they can't convert 2nd and 1 in 3 attempts. Just bad. But I saw enough to believe we have a snow balls chance in hell to move through the NFC.
  18. Be careful about even suggesting this game wasn't over 5 minutes into the first quarter.
  19. Well yeah. I've been here for like 20 years.
  20. I seriously don't care. Great. Like I couldn't possibly care any less. They lost, you're upset. I'm sorry.
  21. I think at this point that would require Goff going on IR. The Bears stink and I think Minnesota is going to take a big dive. It's Detroit and then I think an interchangeable mix of GB/PHL/WAS/ATL/ETC. Anything can happen but the Packers will have to upset someone to make a Super Bowl.
  22. What exactly are you out to prove here? That I wanted to watch a good game and it wasn't a good game? Does this kind of spleen venting help you cope or something?
  23. Actually, that's not even true. I very specifically said do not turn the ball over on this very last drive of the half and the game is winnable. They then immediately threw a pick 6.
  24. Awesome. We're better than the Chiefs. That's the best news of the season.
