We are past the Thanksgiving games so I think its a large enough sample size to say Tom Brady is really bad at being a game caller. He's not Jason Witten levels of bad where he would just forget to speak but Brady is NPC level bad where it feels like he's not programmed to actually more to the game.

Listening to Greg Olsen who Brady bumped off only makes it clear how much better he is over Brady. Fox really fucked up bumping Olsen down.

Antonio Pierce is horrible, should have at least taken a second look at that third down before letting offense run that 4th down play. Looked like a clear first down. LV got stuffed on 4th. He is a big reason this team isn't good IMO.

AOC is much better than minshew, that was a really bad sack though. His pocket awareness needs work.

I put 35 bucks on a Giants Packers money line parlay +198

Lock is good for one performance per year, hope he chunks it up to Nabers for some good times

Green Bay is too much
This is mine.

For example, the dolphins had like first and goal last night. Tried to punch it in four times and turned the ball over on downs. They’re just not built to be a physically dominating team when they need to be.

is the league still letting the Dolphins getting away with players moving moving forward in motion before the snap? Because they cheated a lot of open receivers that way last year
Raheem Mostert led the league in TDs last year, and was incredibly successful at punching the ball into the end zone in situations exactly like that one.

I'm not sure what's different this year, perhaps his injury earlier in the year is still affecting him, or maybe the OL isn't playing as well, but don't forget McDaniel was the run coordinator at San Fransisco. It's not an area he neglects on offense.

I don't think the Dolphins "cheated" receivers open last year, the phrase "cheat motion" just refers to the receiver starting in motion to the side of the formation they are already on from the slot position, rather than crossing the formation behind the QB like usual. It was a way to stop defenses from having time to hand off the responsibility for that receiver from one defender to another pre-snap.

If you had a choice, would you prefer your team be the worst 10-1 team, or best 4-7 team?
Fair point.

But if both make the playoffs I like the Bengals to advance further than the Chiefs.

That’s an interesting take. The Bengals are always dangerous because the have an elite QB and receivers, but if you haven’t figured it out, these Chiefs are a team of destiny.
It’s in God’s hands, and there’s nothing any team in the league can do about it.

Definitely a false start... and originally called that way... until they decided they could switch to illegal shift and let KC win.
