I haven't seen a home team give away a game like that in quite some time.

 

The Texans could do nothing right. Special teams blunders, fumbles, third down penalties. Good lord it was hard to watch.

 

The Rams looked mediocre at best. If they had faced a defense that pretended they could tackle it would have stifled them.

 

Color me not impressed.

No, no, you're doing it wrong, final scores are 100% indicative of the quality of a team.

You are what your record says you are.

FIFY

I haven't forgotten the Jake vs Philly in 2009 or Matt Moore's 2010 meltdown vs the Giants.

 

Agree though. Rams did nothing special. If the Texans weren't commiting 100 yards of penalties in the first half, that score doesn't get out of reach and Foster gets to 200 yds rushing easily. Also the Texans Defense is the worse redzone D in the NFL.

While I agree the Texans lost that game more than the Rams won it, there is something to be said for being able to capitalize on another team's mistakes.

Buffalo gave us the ball inside their own 30 twice and we only got 6 points. If we had taken advantage that game could have been a blowout.

Hard to judge the Rams after beating a team that was imploding. You know, like it's hard to judge us after beating two teams that were imploding.

 

I think we're the stronger of the two teams, but much like the Rams, we've really not seen our offensive weapons perform well against decent opponents.

 

The edge will come down to defense, and I think we have them dead to rights there. Offense... can Cam pick the team up and carry it if things start to slide downhill?

I don't know. That Cardinals defense was kicking our butts left and right in the second half of the game. If they'd have had a decent QB, it might have gotten really embarassing.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
