I'm guessing Keenan Allen kicking a pylon and getting in his OC's face over not getting the ball in the RZ won't be back page news since they won. And because they're not in New York.
The line between aggressive and stupid is fine IMO and this was stupid.
Going for it on 4th down in OT makes a little more sense since the game isn't over if you miss. Going for 2 in that spot is different since if you miss you lose.
IN this league is horrible. I'm flipping around the Sunday Ticket and I see QBs running for their lives. How are teams scoring with these garbage lines?

Faster quarterbacks and broken plays more often than not. I don't enjoy this brand of football, but it is what it is.
I think in a few years, we don't see a QB drafted who doesn't run close to a 4.4 40. Slight exaggeration, but that seems like where we're headed.
RE: Yeah, unless Vrabel comes out and says Succop refused Â
Especially after they were bailed out with the penalty. That was like doubling down on stupid.
Anyone know why the Eagles and Panthers had a scrap at the coin toss? I was flipping around and saw it but had the volume off.
“As reported by Marcel Louis-Jacques of the Charlotte Observer, Reid was particularly chippy during the Panthers' pre-game, staring down players on the Eagles just prior to the National Anthem. As the Panthers came out for the coin toss, Reid confronted Philadelphia Eagles safety and team captain Malcolm Jenkins, and the two exchanged words before being separated by teammates.
Eric Reid needed to be held back by his Panthers teammates from a group a Eagles players near midfield.”

Wait ... Eric Reid tackles the QB and Ertz goes over to Reid, and Reid promptly tackled him, and they both got called for a personal foul? Lol
No.. it is not the future. It is now. Been saying for a while that the QB position has changed. We cannot have a statue playing QB anymore.
Why? Partly because the pass rushers are often much better than the OLs they are lining up against. If you cannot run or at least avoid the rush then your success will be limited.
JPP is wrecking the Browns. I think trading him was smart long term but the idea that we were all in on Eli to win now doesn't jibe with trading your best defender.

Agree 1000%. I dont know why some people cant see this. Front 7 guys are so much faster now than most OL can handle. You dont necessarily need a "running QB" but you do need a QB that can escape a rush, create space and make things happen outside the pocket.
I know Fournette was likely their best offensive player, but c'mon. Factor in that the Giants could easily have beaten them and 'Super Bowl bound' turns into 'missed playoffs' quickly.

No worries. Ereck Flowers is there to save the day...

They barely beat us, and we are trash. Not having Fournette kills them, he is absolutely their whole offense. They control the ball, the eat the clock and they keep their defense fresh to attack. The defense is good, despite the bomb they dropped in Dallas but they can't be on the field all day.
Are you surprised? It was always a desperation signing. Vikings gambled that with their defense if they just got a competent QB, they could win. But D his not as strong as it was and Cousins will keep them mired in medocrity.

Cousins has been one of the better QBs in the league this year. Tell me which free agent QB would have been better for them.
He was obviously the best free agent QB but he isn’t playing well today.
oh ok.. so today's play in the first half where he is 11-19 with one TD and no INT's means he was a bad signing. Even though he has been producing this year. Got it..
Quote:
not kicking the extra point. Wow...
Not only that but the two horrible plays they called for the 2-point conversion were idiotic
yeah I was thinking RPO with that QB
I'm assuming he didn't trust his defense, but it was a dumb decision. Just go to OT.
The 3 - 3 Titans that's practically coaching malpractice.
Titans had all the momentum. SD D was gassed and the TEN D was playing well.
Awful decision.

Seems to be Eric Reid vs Malcolm Jenkins.

There are only three "great" QBs playing in the league today..
Brady
Brees
Rodgers
Let me know when one of these is available via free agency again. Otherwise, stop throwing the word great around like that.
