I can’t speak on tendencies as I watch too many games to remember each teams! But yes if you’re always going for screens and draws on third and long then it’s obviously a problem. Sometimes just being good at something is more important though. I can call with pretty darn good accuracy when I think we will run or pass. If I can, opposing Ds can. And sometimes it’s not about misdirection, it’s just about being good enough to get it done regardless.

It's been a trend. AR resets the play at the line when he feels like it, but overall he depends on player to beat opponent. No innovative plays to keep opposition guessing.
Just seen the highlights. James White is so integral to our offense.
Rodgers deserves a better coach. I get McCarthy won a SB but he’s been poor the past few seasons when Rodgers should be at his peak (injuries aside). Packers are unlikely to make the playoffs, I think they should change coach before next season.

He is isn’t he. I thought Gordon stepped up big too. And Patterson’s versatility is so important right now with Michel out.
Agree on Rodgers and the Packers.
He’s getting to know the offense & Brady’s now trusting him. You can see him improving each game. Hopefully his attitude stays right. Between Gordon, Gronk, Jules, White & Hogan, Brady has plenty of targets. Just need to keep them all healthy.
Hope Michel returns soon too. He really impressed me before his injury & having a power running game makes a big difference imo.
A lot was made of Rodgers vs Brady.
But yesterday showed a huge gulf in class in coaching too. Would love to see BB coaching Rodgers at Packers for at least a season or two...

Neither quarterback looked great last night
Watching Brady beating Chiefs and Packers makes it just more incredible that we beat the Pats in the SB with Nick Foles . Still don't understand how that happened
Your D made that 1 play that ended up being the difference. Our D was a shambles & Philly kept converting 3rd downs for fun (I'm still unsure wtf happened with Butler & Belichick).
Also Foles catching the ball>>>>Brady.
Suddenly Eagles and Cowboys feeling much better about their own chances
Sure, Brady beat Rodgers, but bear with me here, there's a famous QB who beat Brady in the playoffs. That QB is Mark Sanchez. For the transitive property, Mark Sanchez is the best QB of all time and the butt fumble was a genius play, we heathens were just too dumb to understand it
Quarterbacks don't play against each other guys.
Surprised this wasn't posted at 4:20
Agreed, he's having a fantastic season so far, All-Pro level really.The argument is getting tougher.
Bruce Arians said he'd only come out of retirement for the Browns job, would love to see that happen! Think they'd have a winning record next season if he goes there.
Amari Cooper gets his first touchdown as a cowboy . Hopefully first of many
Cowboys D is complete gash
Dez will work out for the Saints today.
Only watched the first half, but losing this game is embarrassing for the Cowboys. I know I’m repeating myself, but their coaching is awful. Dak doesn’t look too good either. A shame, really. That team has a lot of potential.
They got two gifts very early on and still screwed up.

Some interesting comments from Demaryius Thomas in the aftermath of his trade and first game as a non-Bronco.
On the ridiculously stupid play calling on the final drive, stopping rather than trying to make the FG attempt shorter:

Seems like some shit happening in Denver.
I understand why you might want to trade certain players, but why lie about it, tell him its not true etc?
The sooner Joseph is booted the feck out the better.
I'm also starting to question Elway.
hes a trump supporter so yeah you should
Might have to go to NYC for work ... if it all goes to plan I’ll see the Pats @ Jets and the next weekend drive up to Boston to see Pats vs Vikings.
It sounds too good to be true so chances are something will feck it up

Aren’t a lot of the owners?
He's a rich white guy, of course he's a frigging republican.
Yeah I personally don’t see what Joseph has done to justify being there.
And reality is it could be a lot worse than Keenum. But Elway is to blame for not dealing with that situation. Also Lynch seems to be a mega bust. The only good thing he done was to not resign Brocky O.
Joseph has done absolutely nothing to justify keeping his job, and many many many things to justify losing it. He was never the right choice in the first place.
Lynch was cut already and in a huge surprise to absolutely nobody he wasn't picked up by another team.
I don't know what the QB answer is, but it's not Keenum and the draft options next year are apparently no good so we're probably fecked for a few years.
Whiffing on Lynch and Shanahan 2.0 set us back a good 5 years.
I was fully on board the Kyle hype train. Was properly gutted when we brought in VJ instead.
I still don't understand the snubbing of Shanahan particularly when you have Wade Philips who is perfectly able to take care of every single aspects of the defense.
Because Elway thinks he's smarter than everyone else so has to go a different way.
What would your top 10 power rankings look like right now?
Mine would be
Saints
Rams
Patriots
Chiefs
Chargers
Panthers
Steelers
Vikings
Texans
Skins
Didn't realise it would be so hard after 6-7. A lot of teams beyond 8 are pretty close

I would steal your ranking even though I think the Vikings should probably be higher, if I'm not mistaken it's the team that has been the most handicapped by high profile injuries in that top 10.
Was an absolutely awful performance by Dallas. I'll be very surprised if both Garrett and Linehan are in their positions by the end of the season.
Was awful last night but they've actually been good this season so far.
Sean Lee injured again though. Time is probably up for him tbh.
That‘s a shame. Sean Lee is such an incredible player. When fully fit, he’s up there with Kuechly and Wagner.
Dez to the Saints! 1-year deal. They still play the Cowboys this season
