What is your team, if not good, and not corn dogs. i dont even know. They don't deserve names. Strip the coaching staff of all identification, and shave their eyebrows for the reason of it being funny looking. God bless

That sounds roughly similar to the chances Silver gave the Cubs and Donald Trump

It's really weird looking back on that last 2 minutes of the Bengals January playoff game, and realizing that that was their peak and they're never going to come that close to a playoff win ever again with Dalton and Lewis

I didn't watch the Phins game, but on Lebatard today they were comparing it to the Tampa Bay/Oakland Super Bowl where Oakland didn't change any of their signals or alignments so Gruden and the defense knew exactly what the playcall was every time. Supposedly the defense would call out "Screen!" and force Rivers to call a time out because that was the call. Gase had McCoy's system memorized. Any talk of this in San Diego Ross?

I haven't heard anything about it, but that being said it wouldn't surprise me that McCoy wouldn't have changed the audible system at all. For all of the talk about his adaptability when he was hired, he's a painfully uncreative coach in that regard and the formations the Chargers run out every week.

football.

I do remember at least one play where that happened and it caused them to burn a timeout in the fourth quarter.

It was nice to see further evidence of a competent coaching staff that preloaded its players.

When the Giants went up 21-20 I told myself, "They're going to gently caress this up and I rather sleep." I didn't even check the final score until I woke up. It was liberating. Now seeing that they held that lead, I might just have started a new tradition of non-watching.

This is the nice thing about the current Dolphins. They may not be good, but they play hard, they have a sensible plan and they don't try and do things that their talent isn't capable of.

Stark contrast to the Philbin years.

They sealed the lead with two great first down runs by Rashad Jennings

That's what really happened

Rashad Jennings was great in Oakland for a little while, I just think the Giants suck at running the ball.

Absolutely. Rivers was changing the formations more than usual and it seemed like Miami knew every single adjustment

I've said it before but the Giants' run play design is absolute garbage.

It reminds me a lot of what the Chargers were trying to do when McCoy/Reich were the offensive coaches, in that they attempted all these zone handoffs or draw plays out of the shotgun. Very little creativity involved, IE no pulling guards or other lead blockers. The result: an atrocity of a running game that doesn't really take pressure off the QB. Doesn't help that the Giants' offensive line is below average in pure talent anyway.
