BTW I was just thinking about the Broncos/Bills game, and realized that if Payton had called the 3rd down more conventionally (kicking on 3rd after the Bills timeout, instead of running out after kneeling), the Bills probably wouldn't have had 12 men on defense.
That being said, maybe if they don't have to run, he makes the kick the first time.. They had a lot of time though
Crazy game, love this stupid sport

Buffalo fired their OC ... and names Brady their Interim OC. Joe Brady, that is, not the 'other' Brady.

I don't know if that fixes things, considering they had 4 turnovers.. Kind of hard to win a game with 4 turnovers. Seems like a fall guy fake fix to me... We shall see!

-from the bleacherreport.com:
The beginning of the end of the Mac Jones era in New England appeared to begin Sunday in Frankfurt, Germany when he was benched for Bailey Zappe late in the Patriots' 10-6 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.
Now it looks like Jones may be dropped down to third-string behind both Zappe and Will Grier, per Tom E. Curran of NBC Sports Boston during an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show.
As a diehard Pats fan, I agree with Coach Belichick’s decision to put Zappe and Grier ahead of Mac on the QB depth chart.
Jones has not played well this season.
It is time for a change in the QB position.

Mac hasn't played well, but the Patriots' problems go well beyond the QB.
But we shall see
And back to the Bills, I think them firing Ken Dorsey was an indication that the entire team is in shambles, and he's just a scapegoat and things will only get worse from here.
Mid season OC change doesn't always mean this, but often it does. Would they have fired him if they had 11 players on the field on that missed Lutz FG?
Watching the Bills offense all 22 now, on that Patreon I told you guys about. Will edit if he says anything interesting

Deshaun Watson is out for the rest of the season, to treat TWO injuries sustained in the Ravens game - one in the shoulder, one ankle - announced in this very carefully worded statement by the team
Clearly he could still play. In fact the second half was probably his best game since he was on the Texans. But when you are guaranteed a quarter billion dollars, you can afford to take some time off.
Looking forward to the 7-3 Steelers?  | |

-great article about the problems and possible solutions for the Pats. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ts-lost-season
Their draft picks for the past ten years have not really panned out well.
Belichick keeps hiring guys who he had working relationships with in the past too.
Where is the new blood, new offensive coordinators with new offensive schemes? Stale offence.
Latest news is that Belichick is leaving the Pats at the end of the season. He wants to coach elsewhere? https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...ing-new-hc-job

Belichick just signed a multi-year extension in the summer ... quietly, without a whole lot of fanfare. Doesn't mean they can't mutually terminate. But Kraft and Belichick are pretty tight. They can mutually part ways, hell, if TB12 can, so can he. But the guy should just retire already.

Never want to see a competitor go down ... you'd like to get the W playing against the best version of your opponent. Sux to see Burrow go down in the 2nd quarter. This essentially sealed the game for Baltimore ... not as exciting of a game as hoped for. | |

Yeah sucks that it made the game less exciting, but more importantly I always hate to see a player go down. But I think he was hurt beforehand, wearing the brace before the game on that hand? If so they can get in trouble for not disclosing it
For some reason white linebackers are always psychopaths, and Logan Wilson is no different  .. Took out Andrews' ankle on a drop hip tackle (legal this year, but maybe not for long) tried the same on Lamar but he got out of it, but he still landed on his ankle. Then he crushed Odell, who was looking great this game. OBJ always tries way too hard to get so much after the catch, not a good idea in his age and condition.
All legal hits, but dudes like that are scary, and kind of rare in today's game
Hope Burrows and Andrews get healthy soon.

He tried it on Lamar too, but couldn't get a hold of his hip. Still landed on the ankle though | |

To be fair, they need to bring in Colin Kaepernick for workout as well, he's actually younger than Flacco. The Browns already demonstrated that they are not afraid to bring in a controversial figure in the QB position.

Man that sucks for Andrews, he's such a huge piece of the Raven's offence.
This sport is such a crapshoot.

AFC North goes from being the most powerful division in the league, only one with all winning teams, to this. Browns lose their QB, Bengals lose their QB, Ravens lose their most important player on offense.
And then there's the Steelers, somehow at 6-3  | |

What a hella boring week 11 ... good thing we had the Grey Cup for good football. Hard to find anything interesting of note this week in the NFL.
I watched the ending of the Minny vs. Denver game, Denver pulls out the ugly win. 4 W's in a row for the Broncos, have they figured things out? But they are just so awful to watch ...
Let's hope Monday Night Football is a barn burner as we predict it to be.

Yeah not a great week 11.. That's what happens when the best games are in primetime - the Sunday suffers. I mostly watched Steelers vs Browns for the defense and drama. DTR had a decent game this time, so the Browns shouldn't be too bad without Watson. I kind of regret not watching the Lions/Bears game, but I did see the ending, and that was pretty crazy. Bears came so close! This gives hope that the Vikings should win one of their games vs the Lions.
Vikings/Broncos was a great game! Both these teams either barely win or barely lose, so of course the end result is a 1 score game lol.
Superbowl rematch in one hour! Let's go Eagles!
Somewhat good news this morning for my team as well: | |
