NFL 2023

Denver is paying off for me if they somehow win by more than3 Ohh yess
 
So the only team that looks above the rest is the Eagles
 
Tommy DeVito's stat line: 2/7 for -1 yds, 15.2 qbr, 39.6 rtg

But he ran for a touchdown!

The Giants had 7 gross passing yards today, adjusted to -9 when sacks are totaled. Probably have to go back to at least the 80s to find a negative passing total, possibly 70s.

Basically, just wait until the playoffs and see which team is hot and healthy then. Just too much parity in this league and injuries always change everything

Eagles have looked dodgy in their games too. Only the 49ers have looked a cut above and they're now on a 3 game losing streak.
 
In the Eagles game at a crucial point in the 3rd quarter Hurts threw a pass to Smith which clearly hit the ground. It was 4th down and just like the NFCG the Eagles rushed to snap it and Ron Rivera was too slow to challenge. Just stood there waiting for answers from his box. Pretty poor coaching job and really should have challenged there
 
The general policy should be, if it’s a key play (3rd down conversion, or a big yardage play, etc.), and you see the offence running up to snap it fast, you should just throw the challenge flag.

Exactly. It was 4th down and Eagles were down 7. Just throw the flag
 
I actually think the Bengals are right up there with the best teams in the NFL right now. 3-game winning streak without too much fuss about them, Joey Burrow has silently gone back to form once his injury problems were behind him.

Eagles as well of course but don't look as convincing as they did last season (or maybe we've just gotten used to it). Niners with a 3-game losing streak and 17 points scored in all 3 games, Miami got blown out last week against the Eagles, and the Chiefs have been carried by their D all season while their offense hasn't looked the part so far. I'd rate it like this right now:

Elite contenders: Eagles, Niners, Chiefs, Bengals
Contenders: Ravens, Dolphins, Bills

Right below that you have the wannabe contenders like the Lions, Cowboys, Seahawks who are good football teams and tough to beat but can't see them going all the way in the playoffs.
 
Brutal injury luck for the vikings. Their upcoming schedule is so nice and with kirk they would be a certain playoff team

Niners are definitely a tier below now that Purdy has turned human.

Ah well. We're still in our rebuild.

Do you think KC should make a move for a wide out before the deadline? Is it even possible (draft capital, cap roon etc.)?

If so, who do you think they should go for?

K.J Osborn would be a good target.

You have the Dolphins who are the epitome of a flat track bully as legitimate contenders by find faults with the others below them?

Maybe Miami can prove themselves against KC next weekend but until they are fraud contenders.

We should be we won't. We already nabbed Hardman and the WRs that could help us out will cost quite a bit of draft capital. Captain hindsight tells us that not signing D Hop in the summer was a big mistake considering where we are currently with this group. It's essentially the same WR group we had last year minus Juju and if we continue to give Rashee Rice more snaps (he'd been getting less than 40% until last week) then he can maybe replace the 900 yards that Juju gave us.

What needs to happen now is for the useless Skyy Moore (He's had 60% of snaps and averages 20 yards a game) to be dropped and his snaps shared out equally amongst the WRs who can actually occasionally affect a game. The play calling also needs to get better, we throw too many vertical and tricky jet sweep crap plays on third down which do not catch our opponents out anymore because we call them so often.

Thanks for your thoughts. KC is my pick for the SB as you know but the WRs have to improve if they're not bringing in anyone else. Agree that only Kelce and Rice have been impressive thus far.
