Or reinstitute a full back and really go with a power running game to make the most of Chuba and whoever his stablemate will be. Along with more effort on using the TEs.

No, he's still in the learning curve. And these kinds of games are going to happen. But if we don't want to ever have the guy that those prior games hinted at, then we bench him. I think you keep rolling the dice on the very young man and keep building a good team around him. That offensive line needs some help. We may need another swing at a receiver. WE DEFINITELY NEED HELP ON DEFENSE, PARTICULARLY PEOPLE WHO CAN FRIKKIN' TACKLE THAT AREN'T DBs. Right now, crazy as it might sound, Young isn't high on the list of problems we have.

One of the biggest factors was Dallas' decision NOT to blitz us. So far, in the games leading up to this, teams have used our matchup as a chance for unrestricted blitz practices. They've sent extra rushers time and time again and strangely, Bryce thrived under that. It got him to moving around and also put at least one less person out their in pass defense. Even with a depleted defense, Dallas stuck with their traditional four man rush and we just collapsed under it. Bryce seems much more decisive when he sees blitz in the pre-snap. Still, even with the turnovers, this doesn't fall all on the QB's shoulders. On defense, we royally suck. We can't tackle for sh!t. They played like a bunch of guys who were trying to make sure they weren't injured before the holidays. And honestly, with our record, I can see that being the case. They've given their all over the last few weeks, and the ranks are getting thinner, so maybe we're either down to the timid or the tired or the taints.

No drops, has an incredible bounce back game, Dolla Bill takes a lap.

We're with you in spirit like you are with the team. We're cheering for you man, hopefully better days ahead.

Sadly, me and my guys and gal didn't. I started out in 1979, but as a 10 year old with divorcing parents, there just wasn't the money to get them. And my gaming group met up in 1988 and started playing but somehow it was never in the modules, just roll and goes. So, almost 35 years later and we're still gaming, and we just had a little nostalgic idea that we ran with. It has been a hoot.

My buddies from college, my wife and I about a year ago decided to go back to our youth and start an AD&D campaign. Old school rules and we realized we had never played the great modules that were available back in the day. So we started with T1-4 (The Village of Hommlet and The Temple of Elemental Evil), moving on through the G series (Against the Giants) and will maybe do the D series (Descent into the Depths of the Earth, et al) and finish out with Q1 Queen of the Demonweb Pits. Had to buy original copies online, but it has been a blast. We've been playing weekly for about a year and a half and have made it to G2 the Glacial Rift of the Frost Giant Jarl. Old school has been sooo much fun, but the game was much more deadly back then. No idea how any of our characters survived. Sorry, I've dated myself and outed myself as a lifelong geek. Deal with it, folks like that run the world nowadays.

Better supporting cast and I really felt like we spent a lot of time scheming to get Brian Burns to take off. Good luck to the young fellow, though.

If your coach is on the hotseat, you don't want to be facing the Panthers. Will Bryce claim another scalp?

We finally have grit.

Young player, he's going to make some mistakes, blow some routes, drop some easy passes. There are older guys on the team with more experience that have dropped some passes this year, as well. We're playing for next year, folks.

I wanted us to move on. I was wrong. The kid has earned his spot.

Like I tried to say there, I was for Ladd back in the day. But, on to Legette... let's give him some time. It was a bad day for him, and for a few other players. I see something more in him than I saw in TMJ and Mingo. Let's give him time to pan out.

They sure loved him just a little while ago. But hey, things change fast on the Huddle.

Were you one of the guys telling me at draft time that my choice of Ladd McConkey was just stupid? Ladd also has a much more experienced QB throwing to him. Throwing behind a better line. And with more options. And... and... and... Ad nauseum.

Oh boy, yet another hot take. How about this? We stuck with one of the best teams in the league and had a shot to win it in the end. We didn't but there's a crapload of bettors that just lost a ton of money vs. the spread. We're playing for next year right now and rookie WRs have games like this. Y'all loved the heck out of him when he was riding Dolla Dolla Bill in the end zone. He'll do that more in the future.

First year WRs. They always have issues. He'll be fine next year. And that's what we are playing for now.

First year wide receivers always have issues. He's going to be fine.

And we reached 1 million subscribers this week!!!!! It has been a long climb but we made it. Now, how fast will the second million go because the last four years have been quite the learning curve. For those watching, thanks so very much! And for those subscribing, thank you! Here's the latest:

Sheesh, you guys sound like we were in contention or something. We will slog into another one that we have no reasonable chance to be competitive in. And hopefully, somehow we will be. We will discover another Jalen Coker. We will see another DJ Wonnum just come soaring out of the gates. Bryce will take yet another step. And we'll fight until the end and become a better team from it. We might, might even pull off a miracle. And if we get stomped, then it won't be different from the other times this year. But for once, in the last few years in December, you've been believing in your football team just a bit. So, do.

Hadn't thought about it before. Could happen. Then it'll be in the rearview mirror as we head on to play a depleted, demoralized Cowboys team. That's a get right game if there ever was one.

I hope he's going to be great, but the sample size is very small so far. Let's cool the jets and let things develop. He's still finding his game legs again and no other team has real, NFL, tape on him yet. Let's not make King Henry give up his crown quite yet.

Sooner or later, we're going to knock off one of these teams in the Murderer's Row section of our schedule. Wouldn't bother me at all if it was the Eagles.

Also, to be honest, I think he must have been a locker room problem and that hurts buy in with Canale's method coaching/inspiring. Makes you wonder if Mingo was another malcontent, too?
