Also what does it say about our offensive line that our starting left tackle, who got dominated by Arizona last week, was injured and the rest of the line shut down Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram without him?

Can someone clarify something for me?

In the Falcons Eagles game, when Julio got his last TD, it looked like an Eagles DB was flattened before the ball was caught? Is that not technically a pick play?

Ball was thrown behind line of scrimmage and tackle blocked within 1 yard of Los, right? What's the issue?

I didnt know you could just lay out a DB like that, if its the other way its PI right?

The hit occurred like right when Jones caught the ball. Any earlier and yea that would be flagged.

They may be exactly that bad, actually. The game against the Ravens was record-setting in its badness and combined with this one against the Pats where they scored 0 points I'm sure even more records were broken. It's looking to be one of the worst teams of the past decade, easily, and possibly much worse than that

The Dolphins not only scored 0 points, they had 2 plays across midfield and 28 yards of total offense through 3 quarters. They were ugly bad on offense.

Even when they’d start off well - 1st Downs back to back - they’d have something ridiculous happen like several drops and a sack or a madden like bobble fumble

The players loving *suck*. The gameplans don’t seem that bad.

Just to clarify, can't you block before the ball is caught so long as it's behind the line of scrimmage or am I getting confused. Also I haven't checked the video to see where the block happened, just a general rules question

Miami is bad but I feel like any of the stats about them are realistic right now because the pats and the ravens weren't really superbowl contenders to start the season and the stats reflect that thinking. I know we all know the pats are going to be good but it's hard to qualify that with the stats unless you add in a belichick modifier. Small sample size etc, we've all heard it before.

miami thru 2 games: 384 total yards
cards thru 2 games, 2018: 350 total yards

Interesting thing to ponder though, the cards are the best team in the NFC and 3rd overall per pfr's SRS rating

Watching the Cards/Ravens game: These are some good rear end QBs. Jackson has a hell of an arm, every pass is 200 mph. Kyler hits everything too, but the playcalling seem to be way shittier. Might just be protecting him with easy passes since it's still early.

I have usually heard run blocking is easier and more fun for OL because they get to engage and lead rather than just react and mirror so that makes this even weirder

That game was fun as hell. Probably the best game of the week for me, and yeah both guys were balling out throwing AND running the ball. Jackson was better overall though and that won the game for the Ravens, but it was a way more enjoyable watch than I was expecting.

You get 3 timeouts, if a fourth is called (due to injury under 2 minutes) you get the 10 second runoff. If any further are called you get a 5 yard penalty and a 10 second runoff.

In this case, though, BOTH teams had injured players, which is why they did not do a ten second runoff and actually charged Philly for its "fourth" timeout. So the difference was both teams having injured players. I think that's how it went anyways, maybe there was a ten second runoff and I didn't notice

Seriously, the Cardinals aren't bad. Kirk and Fitz make for a great WR Corp, David Johnson is a top ten RB when healthy, Suggs, Jones, and Marsh looks like a good group of pass rushers and on and on. With Kyler steering the ship they are likely on their way to an 8-8 season. Assuming the coach can be a good deal less cowardly. Kicking it on 4th and goal with 2 yards to go is pretty pathetic.
