  1. the dodgers appear to be starting a 36 year old career minor leaguer in an elimination game
  2. this one was teleported to Allen, a regular type throw here ends up being a hospital ball
  3. jeanty is the best back I’ve seen on the college level maybe ever
  4. RIP at the time this felt like a 16 seed beating a 1 in the NCAA Tournament
  5. good dub positives: - holes weren't huge but they were where they were supposed to be in the run game, i think in the last two games we have not had many/any drive killing runs for like negative 4 yards. pass pro got better in the 2nd half. pryor did a good job filling in at LG when jenkins went down - tory taylor was exceptional - caleb didn't throw a pick or even really come close, definition of taking what the defense was giving us - splash plays on defense and really tight in the red zone negatives: - only 3 points total in first quarters through week 4 - still only 254 yards of total offense, 7 catches for 51 yards from wide receivers. some miscommunication and overthrows - defense got ran on quite a big, were we playing a light box? seems like with our secondary and cupp/nakua being out we could've played more base D if that was the case - penalties (wright in particular had a brutal stretch of presnap penalties and that 15 yard blindside block)
  6. that wasn't as egregious as sanchez and amin were making it out to be, i expected a flag though but he kinda hit him and his shoulder pad simultaneously and nowhere close to helmet to helmt
  7. taylor brought out the boomstick today
  8. moore would've had to speed up to be considered jogging i don't think he'd intentionally dog a route but there was some definitely some kind of miscommunication
  9. that probably outgained all other screens we have called combined
  10. the unparalleled football genius sean mcvay is somehow losing this game
  11. sweat blew up the protection and stripped stafford
  12. the bar for replacing a coordinator midseason is not performance based its based on involvement in some murky sex crime
  13. i don't think we'll keep this INT
  14. incredible memories of that time but between signing boozer in the 2010 FA class and rose's injury everything that transpired was basically like a bottom 3% percentile outcome
  15. can't wait for zach to play well enough to build back some kind of trade market and we hold on to him because we're like the 7th seed 12 games into the season
  16. more of a comment on that its ok to get a 1st down on 2nd down and we're in a flukeish number of 3rd down situations
  17. https://x.com/robertmays/status/1837945706402697274
  18. the texture of this game was really pretty flukey, we ran 84 offensive plays which is a huge number for a non-OT game. we were 9-21 on 3rd downs. the next closest team this week had in terms of 3rd down conversion opportunities was 14. when the opposing team is going 3 and out a lot/ giving you the ball back early in drives, or when they do score scoring on chunk plays or off your own turnovers you're going to get a lot of pass attempts
  19. if this is true then the fan base pissing and moaning about it is a feature not a bug because it puts some pressure on management to find a bucket A guy
  20. then we should call plays using monkeys throwing darts at the playbook and reinvest the money saved on coaches into scouting
