    Not sure how they are going to pay him with Gurley, Donald, and Goff.

    With Gurley's durability issues I'm guessing they let him walk.

    Yeah, but they gave him a 4 year 57.7m contract with 21m guaranteed that just kicked in. Cut him next off season and it's a 25.6m cap hit. Year after it's still an 8.5m dead money hit.

    Ah I forgot about that. Thought he was still on his rookie deal for some reason.

    So... there appears to be a reason why the Rams are mediocre despite having some serious talent at key positions.


    "#Rams starting offensive line pass-blocking ratings per @PFF

    LT Andrew Whitworth 32nd/75 OTs
    LG Jamil Demby 76th/77 OGs
    C Brian Allen 31st/33 Cs
    RG Austin Blythe 72nd/77 OGs
    RT Rob Havenstein 74th/75 OTs"
    - Evan Silva is a blogger, but he's a fairly high-profile blogger, for the NFL.

    That's everyone but the Left Tackle in the bottom 7% of those positions. And the Left Tackle is barely above average.

    This is a league that has a lot of terribad O-Lines. But being that bad, across the board, on everyone to the right of Whitworth, takes talent.

    Granted, they've faced some decent defenses. But still, that's fucking abysmal.

    Plus, a QB that apparently can't read defenses.

    But that's been a consistent factor, it just doesn't matter in McVay's system (until they went up against Belichek's system.)

    Well, there is no legitimate reason that a Jed York team is in first place and undefeated. Other than the division is trash.

    If you elect to kick the PAT and the defense commits a penalty, you shouldn't ne able to just change your mind and go for the 2 points from the one.

    In other words 'denverdenverlol'.

    Looks like he's fine, but it looked pretty fucked when they were doing the knee check. I swear it looked like it popped back into place.

    Commentators say Mahomes is out for the game after the x-ray. Reported that he looked dejected walking out afterwards.

    Well, the Chiefs have ruled him out for the rest of this game.

    AFC might as well not play the rest of the season. Just let the Pats play whoever the NFC put up.

    Was Flacco blocking? Did the defender grab and twist the mask? Because otherwise its not a penalty

    Patrick Mahomes with patella (knee cap) dislocation. Can be treated without surgery and brace. Could miss just a few weeks. Could also have season ending surgery. MRI will determine which course.
    Could have been a lot worse. My wife had this happen and landed on her leg wrong and broke her tibia. She's still, a year later, relearning how to walk.

    Idk, the Chiefs haven’t looked amazing all season. Mahomes was carrying the team till his ankle.

    Also the Pat’s offense hasn’t looked great. Could be a few AFC teams that could have a chance (Texans, Colts, Bills, Ravens).

    While they could all make the playoffs, I've got 'faith'* that Belicheck won't have a problem, at home (where they'll likely play).

    Texans have the QB, but not the coach, to challenge the Pats.
    Ravens arguably have the coach, but not the QB (I like Jackson, but I think Belicheck will diagnose him proper).
    Colts and Bills, I think Belicheck, at home, in January, will eat their lunch.

    Chiefs are the only ones that have both, and you just have to hope Reid doesn't have a mental block happen in game.

    * Is faith even the right word? Do you have 'faith' that things will go bad? Mebee 'existential dread/boredom'?

    Why the fuck is Miami starting Fitzpatrick? The season is over. Keep Rosen in there and see if you see anything. Maybe it'll just click, or you will see improvement. But winning a few games.means nothing, evaluating players means more at this point.

    Also, Ex Patriots Assistant Coaches, suck sour frog ass, as Head coaches elsewhere.

    Just ask Lions, Texans, Browns, any team that tries Shitgibbon, Josh McDaniels, fans.

    Yeah, the one slight that Belicheck will have in his career, is just how ineffectual he has been at bringing up the people beneath him.

    Unless #PinkPony is found to be legitimate (a jokey conspiracy theory that all ex-Pats assistant coaches are still working for the Pats by intentionally sabotaging the teams that recruited them), in which case he'll be branded a genius supervillain but a genius all the same.
