He said on air “nobody is watching”.

Near the end of the game but I still couldn’t believe he said it.

Honestly, that was one of the better/more interesting games that they've had on TNF this year.  Most of them, especially the early ones were absolutely miserable, and IIRC, had almost zero offense.

All that being said, I also found it interesting that they elected to have absolutely no one at the post-game desk like they usually do.  They showed like a 30 second interview with Foreman coming off the field after the game and then went into their usual "coming up this weekend" stuff.  I've never seen that before, so it was clear they just wanted to be done with this game and move on.

Also, I don't think this quote is real at all, even if that's how he felt...  the internet has gotten carried away with these memes trying to go viral.  I really don't find them funny anymore.

And finally, I really wish Wilks and McAdoo would stop hamstringing the offense by limiting PJ this much.  He can hit big throws, as he's demonstrated each game outside of the Bengals, you just have to scheme it up to make it about as surefire as you can.  They also could do a lot more with PJ in the read option game - a lot more.  They are really limiting the offense's potential.

Yeah gotta say this especially being a rain game was much more entertaining than that Broncos/Colts game where it went to OT off 4 field goals each or whatever horrendous stat that was. Mariota doesn't throw the ball when it's dry out and it was obvious why. The only thing missing was getting Ridder to start the 2nd half and looking even worse

PJ literally threw it into the hands of the defenders like 3 or 4 times last night on his already limited amount of throws, and you want him to throw it MORE?

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
