Easily one of the best games I've seen a QB play this year, no matter what the stats may or may not show. He was making big play after big play, and it was infuriating to watch.
That 4th and 2 run had me like :damn: and like :wow:

Even that 4th down td pass to Diggs was some impressive shyt.

Dude is legit good. One of the biggest pro ball snubs.

Some QB's are mobile, some are strong as hell, and some have cannon arms. Very few have all three of those traits, but he does. They definitely should have had him on that 4th down play, but even on some other plays, he's buy time and just make a ridiculous throw. If he wasn't making a crazy throw, he was finding an opening and running for that first down.

I still have Mahomes as the best QB in the AFC, but Allen is getting better and better. And. there is NO WAY in hell that Justin Herbert is a better QB than Allen.:mjlol:.

Its ok to say Giants made a huge mistake in drafting Saquon Barkley.

The Jets won and I think thats ok. They need to build something going into next season. But Robert Saleh needs to field at least top 10 defense next year or close to it.

I actually think Saquon is still good. He got a bottom 5 line...bottom 5 qb...bottom 5 receiving corps...bottom 5 coaching staff...a staff that fired jason garrett and somehow the offense got worse:mjlol:

I hope the cowboys can get him for the cheap in a year or two. Put him on just an avearge offense and he will do work.

Jimmy G and Stafford need to pray to the heavens that Baker exists otherwise they'd both be getting roasted this week too......and I know Stafford won, but he's looking as bad as Goff did.

I’m convinced Baker is a backup. I could see Houston taking a chance on him if Watson is for sure gone. No team that has a real shot is looking at this dude.

That might be one of the dumbest sports quotes in a minute. :mjlol:


No idea what Cleveland's going to do with Mayfield. I could see them giving in and giving him the megadeal, or cutting ties and trying to get one of the disgruntled QBs. Wouldn't really be surprised by either.

I think they look around to see what the trade/free agent market is looking like, and if not, they ride out the option year and look for something else then. Ironically enough, there's a nonzero chance that Kirk Cousins ends up being the answer here.


It might be time to have a talk about how Justin Herbert hasn't exactly regressed this season, but he definitely isn't progressing, either. There was absolutely no reason for them to lose like they did today, and that pick six was a perfect example of how their season has been going.

Tomlin is one of those coaches that sticks by his guys, but he's gotta put the serious coach hat on, and tell Ben he's done, and try Haskins out for a game or something. Pittsburgh's defense has been trash just about all season, but from what I saw of the game today, this was when the offense finally laid down and died. Roethlisberger doesn't just look like the arm and decision making isn't there, he looks like he's afraid to get hit now, too. That fumble when he got bumrushed was depressing for me to see, and I don't even like him.

I know the Rams are, objectively speaking, a better team, but there's no fukking way you should get three picks off of Stafford, and have a shot at a fumble, and STILL lose. If there's not a front office and coaching bloodbath at season's end, it's pretty clear to me that ownership is completely fine with being mediocre, and I'm done with the team until further notice. On that same note....

That really wasn't the game you wanted to see out of the Giants after word got out that they're probably keeping Judge and Jones. The gap between Glennon/Fromm and Jones isn't really all that large, and Judge can't hide behind Gettleman giving him shyt to work with, or Saquon being washed. McVay was able to make decent use of Gurley with one knee while hiding Goff on offense and making all his pre-snap reads for him.

Patriots ate off of an ideal stretch of their schedule during that winning streak nothing more, nothing less. They're not as good as they looked then, and probably not as bad as they've looked over the last two weeks.
