Houston has had 9 possessions since Noel’s TD

2 interceptions, halftime, a FG and 5 punts and they’re still up

So jealous of that defense 

The Texan’s performance tonight showcased their defensive ability, but also showed that their offense is not on the same level. So it will be interesting to see if their defense can continue to shut teams down and carry them in the play offs like they have in the regular season, because without that, I don’t think their offense is playing well enough to go score for score with the more prolific offenses in the league.

Their defense is elite

How about the colts giving up two firsts for a CB just to miss the playoffs 

All because they were sold on Daniel Jones’ first 8 starts or whatever it was 

He had that ugly game in Pittsburgh then London and KC weren’t great but by that time it was too late 

2 1st’s for a corner… just bad business no matter what. I would’ve taken 2 1st’s from a Daniel Jones led Colts team for Jaycee in a heartbeat

I’m not disputing that their defense is elite. What I’m saying is it will be interesting to see how far their elite defense can carry them in the play offs or whether their offense eventually hold them back if/when a team does take its chances to score. For example, the number two and three defenses just put up nearly 40 points against each other. If they come up against a team that starts to score, can they keep up or will their chances be dependent on their defense continuing to stifle their opposition? Like I said, it will be interesting to see how it unfolds.

Yeah I didn’t mean for that to come across like I was disputing anything you said because I agree with you 

That defense is good enough to win a championship but at some point that offense is gonna have to help them out

      Malik Willis anyone

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
