I'm setting the odds at 1000% that the first score of the season will be wiped off by a holding penalty, and will be a turnover right after.

27-0.

We're probably a few weeks from scoring and also probably a few weeks from holding the other team under 50.

I think we'll have at least 5-6 games where there are more penalty yards than offensive yards. Meanwhile, 24-0.

I see this comment frequently from a few people but I never see anyone who fits the description.

It would be kind of cool to go like 14 games without scoring. Not the good kind, but the fascinating kind.

Nice throw.

Poor defensive play doesn't deserve excuses. They have jobs to do.

Maybe 38-0 at halftime.

On the bright side, their backups should be in by the fourth.

You've got UFL guys starting on both sides of the ball. Effort's largely immaterial. They're just not good enough for the starting jobs they have.

It's gonna be 31-0 at halftime.

He'll be kept next year. Too much dead money. Let him compete for a backup job.

I have every expectation that whoever is drafted to replace him will be just as bad.

Nice tackle by Moton. Defensive end?

Might need to look up fewest points scored in a season and most points allowed. Both those records are on watch.

There's no way this team is avoiding 0-17. There's just not nearly enough talent.

OK, well, hold 'em under 60?

Is it gonna be 21-0 in the first quarter?

Well guys, try to hold them under 50.

Gonna be a historic year for all the wrong reasons.

I don't think that play should be called targeting if you're not going to call it when Raiola was hit in the pocket.

I wonder if people would still be freaking out about that if Andrew Raym went in the sixth or seventh round instead of being signed as a UDFA.

Generally the roster in August is the injury report in November.
