  1. This. Darnold missed the throw to Thomas and he missed the throw to Marshall on the out route in the endzone. He should've had three TD passes.
  2. The rumors of the Saints' demise were greatly exaggerated.
  3. Two shine above all others IMO. 1. CMC's workload. That's not sustainable. For one, we can't be that reliant on one guy. Two, we're gonna wear him out at this pace. 2. Redzone problems. The fumble. Some missed throws. Some less than inspiring play calls. We kinda seen about every way you can botch it in the redzone.
  4. He was okay. No terrible mistakes. Some missed throws. Some good throws. Lots of checkdowns, probably largely by design. I'll give him a C+. The fumble was on him. You can't stick the ball out there until the FB clears.
  5. Well, overall basically what I expected. Fairly comfortable but uninspiring win. Defense was dominant most of the day, but Zach Wilson is a talent. The offense was basically all #22. That's not sustainable. Hopefully it was just part of easing Darnold in and getting him comfortable because that type of workload is gonna put CMC back on IR again.
  6. DVR is all good. I'll be caught up by the end of the 3rd quarter. Meanwhile, there's only a few weekends of good boating weather left.
  7. Not like he'd have much unsold jersey inventory to buy out. They didn't make many to begin with.
  8. I'll have to bow out at the top of the hour. I'll probably get started on DVR around halftime. I'm gonna do some extended pregaming.
  9. They have a helluva talented young QB, but oh wee mayne at most if the rest of that roster.
  10. Get back to me on that after the third or 4th time Quinnen Williams forklifts one of our interior OL.
  11. The only potential lessons we learn today facing a terrible Jets teams riddled with injuries are bad ones. Not sure if success today means much.
  12. While we sucked no less. While he talked about his five year plan no less. Hey, we all know THAT guy isn't part of any five year plan so let's put in someone who could potentially be, even if only in a reserve role. Whitehead was about as bad of a starting LB that this team has ever fielded.
  13. I'm so accustomed to this team making awful OL depth chart decisions that it's just become fully expected.
  14. I think we'd be a contender for a playoff berth with Stafford. SB contender? Nah, I wouldn't go that far.
  15. Maybe. But those rumors (even though they made no sense to me) were way too strong at the time for their not to be some fire behind the smoke and they were definitely watching Jones at his pro day with keen interest and their faces read deep concern.
  16. Yep. I'm just thinking from the perspective of a good, aging QB. From that perspective, weapons are nice. They're awesome. But I'd rather be behind a good OL with lesser weapons than behind a porous OL with better weapons. I'm thinking that if the OL can keep me clean I'll find somebody but all the weapons in the world aren't gonna help me much if the defense is having a team meeting around me immediately after the snap every time I go to drop back and those hits are starting to hurt a lot more than they did a decade ago. Yeah, I'm going better OL over better weapons.
  17. Or gotten killed behind this OL. If we had Stafford though, we'd probably be a very popular dark horse playoff pick. I can't blame Stafford for picking the LA situation. They're the better situation for an aging QB. Yeah, we have damn good weapons but our OL looks like trash on paper.
  18. In other QB trade news, Adam Shefter is now reporting conclusively what was widely rumored back when the Niners traded for #3 - they made the move for Mac Jones. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32192632/sources-san-francisco-49ers-trade-no-3-draft-pick-spurred-concern-new-england-patriots-moving-mac-jones That look of deep concern Shanahan had on his face at Mac Jones' pro day makes a lot of sense assuming this is correct. Uh oh. This ain't that guy.
  19. Detroit finally got one right after terribly botching the Barry Sanders and Megatron situations. Stafford was a good QB for them who they failed to build a team around. He wanted out and they were willing to sign off on sending him where he wanted to go as long as the trade compensation was in the ballpark of other offers. Good in them. Finally.
  20. It's not just my opinion. There was a House investigation. They pretty much agreed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/10/06/amazon-apple-facebook-google-congress/
  21. Daniels looked like the only think holding UGA back from competing for a championship this year against Clemson.
