Only confirms what we all knew,: 3rd and long on either side of the ball was often a bad omen.

I'd like to know how well our pass pro held up in those situations. Our defense definitely made the opponent's pass pro look elite in comparison. Also doesn't help that if our guy caught the ball short of the sticks, they're not getting the last few yards themselves to convert because unlike our defense, they know how to tackle.

The one actual not putrid offensive piece Bryce had to work with in 2023. Thielen also was someone Coker looked up to and so we can probably thank Thielen for his development as well.

I'll really miss JTO complaining about good old 19. "Oh, and we have 19 putting up the mailbox on his career. C'mon, man. Put that arm down. Nobody cares."

I don’t see how this is controversial in the slightest. We're simply buying some more time to make a long term decision. That way, we can use valuable resources to improve other areas and there are plenty of those.

That and if you actually look at the alternate path, who would be the next QB? The FA market from what I see... no, thank you. And this upcoming QB class... yeesh. It's so easy to talk about replacing a QB, but Vikings gambled on McCarthy over Darnold and that completely blew up in their faces.

As for a long term contract, I still hold onto the philosophy that even for "franchise" QB's, it's not worth it once the cap hit forces you to lose other players on the team as a consequence.

Texans vs Patriots may be some really ugly offensive football. Stroud did... whatever he did tonight and Collins will almost certainly not play. Patriots only managed 16 points against a pretty good Chargers defense whose offense might've been even more inept than the Steelers.

7th straight playoff loss for Tomlin. If the Ravens could fire Harbaugh...

Aaron Rodgers...

Surprised the "Fire Tomlin" chants haven't broke out yet.

Stroud has just looked uncomfortable and it doesn't make sense on why. It's not like this is his first playoff game.

All day to throw and instead of throwing it away, you throw a pick? Oof.

Steelers best player so far may be CJ Stroud. 

Dammit, Canales!

Oh, sorry. Force of habit.

Didn't we give him a raise and an extension too? I seem to recall that bit of stupidity.

A three year extension only to cut him a year afterwards. 

But guess what? He got an extension with the Chargers earlier this year too.

Wow. I'm slow. That was our center from 2022-2023 playing for the Chargers. No wonder I was getting 23 Panthers O-line "protection" flashbacks.

With more respect comes with expectations... which kind of scares me. This franchise has never handled that well - SI picking us as the SB champs for 2006 still haunts me.

But I'll take this over being utterly dog water.

If Herbert wants to save his reputation and his body, he should demand a trade. 

Trick play? 2nd and 18 conversion? It's like watching Canales and Evero at work.

Harbaugh not going for it on 4th down may just pay off with that tipped interception.

Prevent from winning defense once again.

Juaun Jennnings is a free agent in 2026 and lines up in the slot a lot.  

I'd sign him just so that Moehrig can kick the crap out of him again.  

You never really know how hard it was except in retrospect. Got crushed by the Jags and the Patriots but both ended up being playoff contenders. But we also pulled off major upsets against the Cowboys, Packers, and Rams. Losing to the Saints twice sucked, but they ended up not being the bottom dwellers of the NFL after all.

It's becoming more clear that this team didn't really know what they were thinking in drafting XL because he's not a good fit with Bryce at all. We've seen it with guys like Thielen and Moore that you give him a receiver that knows the fundamentals of the position well enough, he can at least get production out of them. XL is the complete opposite, a guy that came in super raw and even now, struggles with basics like knowing where the boundary is and running the route correctly. That and he just seems to play slow, almost like he has to think about what to do rather than just playing naturally. Nothing against the man, but I find it hard to see how he's going to work out here.

INT way to end the [bleep]ing season

Trevor Lawrence legacy game.

Of course it ends on a Lawrence INT...

Washington was wide open

I mean wide open

Why are you even looking at a [bleep]ing pass over the middle with a minute to go and 0 timeouts?

Quote

AHhh I knew we weren't for real. But still why does it have to end on a drop turned into pick. Just the most jags way to end.


Bullcrap, just bullcrap.

Jags defense is getting trashed as well. Seems familiar...

I'm glad our game didn't end like that. Could you imagine the poo storm if Bryce threw a game losing INT to end the game yesterday vs Rams? 

I almost want to find a Jaguars forum and see what the reaction is.

That's an insane tush push. 

It's the playoffs, Josh. You don't slide there.
