Giving out two gameballs and none of them go to Jameson Williams who caught a deep bomb TD on his first NFL reception. I'm off the Dan Campbell hype train
I'd love to see Detroit in the playoffs in favor of the Seahawks, Giants or Commanders to be honest.
Also would like Jacksonville in - Lawrence has been red hot the last month or so. Their route is quite a bit harder though, easiest way might be to make up 2 games on the Titans for the divison crown but hard to see them do that.

I'd love to see Jagga in the playoffs.
The Jags would be cool too I guess.

feck the Jags. Any franchise idiotic enough to hire Meyer deserves eternal failure.
And those owned by the Glazers don't?
Niners had Brady sign the ball they intercepted Crazy how these guys are fawning over him postgame.

The word is pathetic.
Cowboys signed TY Hilton former Colts receiver.
Not sure if it means no more OBJ talk or they want someone who can play right now then look for Beckham to play later when he's fit?
They could have signed Hilton anytime if they really wanted too so who knows

That did not look good for Kyler Murray. Almost certainly his season done.
Wow, didn’t even realize the game was even on. Was he injured on their opening drive?
Yep, something like the second or third play and his leg just popped while running, no contact. Probably his ACL
Hope it's one of those "looks worse than it is" kind of situations.

Brutal game and there's still 10 minutes left in the second quarter.
Is it on real grass or field turf?
It's real grass.
Just realized that we play Arizona in a couple of weeks. That’s a shame we won’t probably play v. Kyler, I would have liked to have seen how we would fare against that type of QB.
But now, McCoy will probably have a 158.50 rating against us.
Seahawks have lost twice against Colt McCoy in the last 2 years - once with the Giants, once with the Cardinals. I know your upcoming pain
McCoy also destroyed the Niners last season
Cardinals having a tough go of it this week…
Hurts 10th right now which obviously isn’t going down well with Eagles fans
Looks like Lamar is following the RAWK player rating trend by getting better when injured.
Mahomes
Hurts
Allen, Burrow
Herbert
Is what I'd have it right now.

Hurts still below all 4 of those for me. 5th seems about right.
I think you can make an argument for hurts in top 8 anywhere but to have Geno Smith, Brady and Rodgers over him is crazy
I agree if you're talking arm talent or perhaps ability to thrive in this league for more than a decade. But this season, even though his steam is stacked, he's been playing lights out imo.
I agree with this but I guess with the team & schedule he can be considered 5-7 range
He’s been incredible 100%, you can’t not be and be considered the 5th best in the league in any given year. But I still think those others are a little ahead. Having said that, I would probably only say Mahomes is his main contender as it stands for MVP.
Yeah don't think we disagree too much on Hurts then in any case.
Think it's indeed between those two depending on how the last four games play out. Burrow would've also been right up there if they hadn't started the season 0-2 and then to 4-4 imo. Herbert has had to deal with a lot of injuries as well.
I hope Hurts win it just because I think everything is coming together for him this season, while it's way more likely that Mahomes will collect another MVP in the next few years. If you'd remove both of them from their team and would install someone like Geno Smith in their stead, I'm not sure who would be better, the Chiefs or the Eagles. It's a close call.
The Eagles offense would be much different with a Geno Smith type. They molded the schemes around Hurts to fit his abilities and limitations, probably similar to Baltimore for Jackson. The Chiefs could run the same offense with a lesser QB though they wouldn't get bailed out by super-QB performances that Mahomes often does.
I would be happy for Hurts to win it too. For the reason you set out here but also, for me, this league continues to write young QBs off so early. People were increasingly negative about Lawrence but he’s stepping up now. Hurts perhaps not so badly written off but so many Qs putting pressure on him early. Allen is another example of someone who people thought was a bust. Tua. Everyone said Lamar couldn’t throw. The list is long.
And yes the list is also long for those got time and remained shit. But I wonder how much of that is because of the expectation that they’re put under. Not everyone is like Mahomes who can ball out from day 1 (although don’t forget he did have a year sitting). A Hurts win is a reminder that teams should perhaps focus on a more development focussed journey for young QBs, with a view to be ready by Y3, rather than heap them as saviours from day 1.
Exactly. Desmond Ridder is already written off by a lot of people before even playing a full game in the league. Third round draft pick, out of Cincinnati, no arm talent, this and that, ...
I think Lamar has been the absolute perfect example that you just need to build around your QBs strengths and a lot is possible if you scheme well for exactly that. Hurts is the same.
It is of course true that the odds are stacked against you if you're not a first round QB with a good college degree. And the examples are plentiful. But to write off guys like Lawrence, Fields, (Pickett), ... is pretty crazy to me especially when it's clear that they have traits that can make a team win. Mac Jones, Zach Wilson, ... I get the doubts, but even guys like them might still be able to put it together.
Yup. And Mac, just look at him last year. He threw with so much confidence and anticipation that you don’t just lose that suddenly. Some will inevitably bust but those decisions are made too hastily. It’s so easy to forget just how much goes into a QBs success. O-line quality, skill position quality, scheme, confidence, relationships and synergy with coaches, even defence… sometimes a year might be enough because of what you see day in day out in training and meetings and game time, but more often then not it’s simply not enough time to make a judgement in my book. Not everyone is a superstar QB like Rodgers or Mahomes or Brady who can inspire and elevate everyone (although two of these are showing that even they can succumb to other factors and the other is blessed with a HOF offensive mind). But QBs simply don’t need to be. Find their strengths, give them a platform to learn, build the scheme and players around them, and you could very well get a SB winning recipe. What the Jets did with Wilson is a prime example of how not to handle a rookie QB.
How fecking stupid do you have to be, it's 4th and 7 with 10 seconds left in the quarter and you jump offsides.
These taunting penalties are so lame. I don't know any fan who wants shit talking between players to be penalised. How boring.
Idiotic. I’m a little annoyed we didn’t go for it on 4th and 2. Trust the defence ffs.
Yeah, that baffled me, especially given Purdy hadn't missed a pass at that point and our run D is atrocious. At least expected you to line up as if you were going for it, see if you can get Darrell Taylor to be an idiot again.
