So, it looks like:
Kansas City
Pittsburgh
New England
Houston
Pretty much have that locked up?
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Harrison Smith is the most underrated player in the game ... he may also be the best safety in the game ... There is not one thing he does not excel at ...

Chicago is a legit team ... probably the team who I was most wrong about
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

A team to watch out for the 6th seed: Indy
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Taylor Gabriel. Man I miss him on the team.

Matt Nagy utilizes him perfectly too

Not that long, he would not last a season unless he puts on like 30lbs of muscle next off season...man does he remind me of Cunningham. At the end of it all he is not as good as Cunningham but he also does remind me of Tebow...he will win a lot of games via the run. Not as built as Tebow to take the hits, in college he was able to avoid them. But he will be a turnover machine against good defenses. Right now what I see is his accuracy is limited to passes withing the NUMBERS...His side line passes...well 50 50 to which team he will throw it to.
Running, if he learns how to slide. But he ran more than he passed the ball.
It was nice seeing the Bengals get beat up a bit as we heal.
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off!
Go Browns!
CHRIST HAS RISEN!
GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!

Ran out of bounds helping Bengals  its his first start. I hate this excuse when it comes to basics. College and high school have out of bounds and game clocks as well. The concept of staying in bounds to keep the clock moving is not something that doesn't appear until the NFL.

Yeah, everyone who disagrees with you is thick or stupid. We understand that. lmao
The guy has TWO YEARS HC EXPERIENCE! Just like Chip Kelly. Yet you claim it's not the same. I won't resort to calling you thick, stupid or any other names.
But let's just say that Chip Kelly was the hottest ticket in town with only two years HC experience and it's the exact same thing with Riley.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Chip Kelly had two years of HC experience at ANY LEVEL when the Iggles hired him ... U sure it was only two years? ... I find that hard to believe but then i think of what the thief did with sashi and realize NO IDEAS TO STUPID for some folks ...  ... Did chip really only have 2 years of HC experience when the iggles hired him? ...

Actually after a closer look he was the Coach at Oregon for 4 years with a recors of 49-15. Twice as long as Riley has been HC.

I re-watched the game this morning cause i was curious about Mr. Jackson ... After re-watching it he’s gonna have some problems ... - his release point is way to low ... to me it appears to be at the earhole or at best the crown of his helmet ... its REAL LOW ... and i’m Not talking about the throw he sidearmed and hit dude in the helmet ... i’m Talking about his normal throwing motion ... BONE - u ever seen one that low before? ... i can’t recall anyone? ... ANYONE? Dawgs ... can any of u think of anyone with such a low release point? - he has accuracy issues ... - he took way to many hits ... WAY TO MANY ... Watching Mitch last night he ran the ball say 8 times ... all to the middle of the filed .... he got hit once and that was on a late hit ... watching this morning Mr. Jackson ran the ball 27 times ... 7 or 8 ended with him running out of bounds ... he prolly got hit 30 - 35 times ... he is strong and tough and broke plenty of tackles but there still HITS ... hence why him saying on bounds roughly 20 times resulted in around 30 hits ... I think it was Bruce Arians that summed it up best on one or the broadcasts .. i think it was Bruce anyhow .. “If you put your QB in danger, danger will come” ... He ran it 27 times ... and took LEGITE HITS ... these weren’t of the late slide variety .. he INITATED the contact a lot ... he’s not Cam or Josh Allen’s size ... he can’t do that ... He ran a pure college offense yesterday ... good luck wth that ... Mr. Jackson has a LONG LONG LONG WAY to go ... He is fun to watch though ...

Last night when they panned over to Nagy with the plastic play sheet pressed against his mouthpiece on his head set when they went for two when it was the DUMBEST THING u could possibly do at that point ... i then had a flashback to them panning over to Iron Mike back in the day standing there in his leather coat and that hair with that intent scowl on his face while peering out at the action on the field .... even with all those around him it was like a silloutte ... It dawned on me that was a microcosm of just how much the game had changed with that before and after simple pic ... of course Iron Mikes would be in black and white for us old folk that love nostalgia ...

Just like "Field of Dreams" !! except, if they keep playing him like that, it's gonna be more like "Children of the Corn".

Did u happen to catch any of Bark yesterday? ... he was “very dissapointing” in that night game in that he didn’t really get to showcase a lot of what makes him special ... yesterday he did noting spectacular but he showcased his quicks, speed. 0 - 60 in a second type skills ...
It was fun to watch ... hope u got to catch some of it ... you’d of enjoyed it ...

I didn't, unfortunately.
On that Monday night game, I forgot that I don't get to watch MNF as I don't have cable and I ended up watching absolutely zero football yesterday (and it was nice!).

When you look how the Saints offense has been going I think it’s amazing what fits we caused them. It also proves we need depth at LB and DB.

Bernie threw 3/4 - but he was accurate and could read defenses and play from within the pocket.

I guess thats what makes Jackson’s delivery so unique ... he doesn’t throw it 3/4’s or sidearmed ... its an ‘overhand” delivery that just doesn’t go above his heat at any point .. *L* .. Thanks dawg ..

I would have been surprised had you not gotten defensive over my response. I didn't say he didn't get the W. I didn't say he sucked. And I didn't say rookie QBs don't make mistakes. You said it correctly. He made a bone headed decision. Wasn't the first one to do so, and won't be the last. All I am saying that not knowing to stay in bounds in that situation has nothing to do with being a rookie. Because that concept is introduced well before the NFL. He made the mistake because he is human and will make mistakes. It is not because he is a rookie and didn't know how it worked. Untie your undies, I am not dissing on Lamar. I will say that Cincy had to have known how Lamar was going to be primarily used, and didn't plan for it. That one play in the 4th quarter, with Balt deep in Cincy territory. Cincy lined up with no one in the middle, behind the DL.

I thought I’d read he was helping on the HC side, letting Lewis run with the defense.
