As unready for the moment I felt the announcers on the NFL network were for the Colts-Vikings game given it's historical context, Jonathan Vilma perfectly captured the zeitgeist of the moment Chandler Jones owned Mac Jones and the New England Patriots

But the special teams play this year has been loving abysmal. Chiefs need a new OC and DC next year. Toub better get his poo poo together.

He was pretty clearly off the line. Officiating sucked but that one was totally avoidable.

Kinda crazy the amount of respect Sauce is getting as a rookie. DROY is a given but he should probably be 1st team All-Pro as well. https://twitter.com/SethWalder/status/1604589190209048579

Apples McGrind posted:The official gave him the green light though, and then threw the flag instantly. From the body language on the video, it looks like the ref is pointing where the WR needs to be the entire time; the WR takes a step up, the ref thinks it’s not enough, but the WR is not paying attention anymore. He does look back briefly and give a wave, but he doesn’t move again. Obviously we can’t know if anything was said.

The uncalled DPI where he’s wearing a defender like a jacket when the ball arrives in the end zone seems a lot more egregious. On the other hand gently caress Dan Snyder’s team I am glad they lost  Separately, has anyone seen Jakobi Meyers this morning? I am a little worried he is going to be disappeared into the same CIA black site where we lost Jonas Gray.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:Was it 4th down? Why would they not just kneel that out if it weren't? You run it because hey maybe he breaks it off and takes it for a TD. Yes he might fumble, but that’s low chance and they aren’t that close to their own endzone. You don’t exactly plan for spontaneous lateral play.

Haven't been following this thread so I don't know if it's been mentioned, but I find it very funny that Chandler Jones whiffed the initial tackle on Stevenson. Which is why he was right there for Jakobi Meyers' throw

Rhamondre Stevenson must be a big fan of Drew Magary, since he just wrote an article this week talking about how there should be more laterals.

Simplex posted:My guess as to what happened is that they called the lateral party, because why not? The coaches' expectation is that the players will recognize the game situation and just eat the ball instead of doing anything silly. The players interpreted the call as, we need to win the game right here, no overtime.

Matthew Slater has since said laterals were not supposed to be part of the play - which makes sense, it was just a give up run that would have gone nowhere had the Raiders tackling not been so awful. So Stevenson and Meyers were just feeling it.

The paperclip can be used to pick the lock into the Giants' castle in New York. Or so I've been told.

Sorry, those are just the facts and nothing that happens now can change them. I don't know what the answer is for the Bears offense. Sure, Fields has some pretty runs and is racking up rushing yards but that isn't going to consistently win them games. Especially after the defense gets more tape on his latest run-heavy style. He has failed to break 170 passing yards in 4 of his last 5 games.

Look at the bears receiving corps this year and you will be on your way to finding the answer. Their line also sucks bigly. Maybe the worst talent on offense in the league, certainly bottom 3.

The Bears performing like a top-5 scoring offense since they started using designed runs for Fields. Pretty comfortable with him as an offensive engine at this point

Doesn’t matter how many yards he has passing, it matters if they score points and win games. They’ve been scoring a lot for a bears team but are awful at winning, I hope they can build a team around Fields.
