Honestly... if they score on anything less than a short field/turnover I'm going to be disappointed. This should and and likely will likely look like last years Detroit game.

I'll never wish injury on anyone but if Miller and Erving are banged up enough we finally get to see Moton - Daley? - Paradis - Brown - BC then I will thank them for their service and wish them a slow but full recovery. Likewise if Shaq going down id be interested to see if they'd move Chinn back to LB and let Kenny Robinson get an honest shot. I know he didn't practice well, but like Luvu, he flashed in every game he played in preseason. Id much rather Shaq come back fast though. Been awesome this year.

Amazing how the final score came out to a one TD game. Refs call that fumble and we get the ball back in plus territory we may be looking at a different outcome. Hell, Carter gets Dak on the ground for a sack 1st play, Shaq doesn't whiff on the scramble and maybe its a different story. Bright side the Saints lost in OT and doesn't look great for Atlanta. HATE losing but we fought back and didn't get blown out so I'll hang on to that for now. Fug the refs tho.

1) first glance, hes not in. 2) how come we didn't get an immediate whistle stopping forward progress there Jerome?

Gonna be a long day if we can't get one 4 obvious calls to go in our favor on a single drive.

And bo the OPI lol.

Shocking to absolutely nobody Jerome and his clown squad of officials have taken over this drive. Robbed of the fumble. Fox clearly held on that 4th down scramble. SMH. Love the energy and intensity. Keep it up.

DJ MOORE IS THAT DUDE!!!

Amazing the success on 2 plays running to the right. I swear I could count on 1 hand the amount of runs to the right weve had all year. Id run behind Miller and Moton all damn day compared to Erving and Daley.

2 bad holds missed but man, Shaq looking like he did, well for his entire career outside this season, on that drive. Cant belive he whiffed that bad on Dak. Need the offense to respond here.

The pro of these stupid TNF games is we have 10 days till Dallas, almost like a mini bye. Means he likely misses only 2 games against Dallas and Philly with plans to have him back for Minnesota. The team not placing him on IR seems to indicate they also think he'll be 100% by that 3rd game. We saw last year they aren't afraid to shut him down till he's 100%.

So examples of rare throws would be like the 25 yard dart to Marshall on our first drive that he dropped? Or the back shoulder fade to the opposite hash to DJ Moore for 27? Secondly I respectfully disagree. Darnold navigated the rush, stepped up in the pocket and while drifting left launched a ball to the right hash that traveled from our own 35 to the NY 12. Did Robby slow up? Yes. Did he have to come to a complete stop or come back to the ball? No. Id argue that was by definition a big time throw. I dont want to make excuses, he wasn't perfect but people throwing around words like "mediocre" either haven't been fans very long, have a vendetta or have somehow forgotten the poo show of QBs we've matched out the last 10 years. Those are throws we haven't seen made since 2018.

Sam was the least of my worries today. Not perfect by any means but was well above average and most importantly was not a liability or someone we won the game in spite of. Hot Take: I thought this was the best QB play we've seen since Cams (pre TJ Watt hit) 2018 season. I dont even know if that's that hot of a take with the competition being a one armed Cam, Kyle Allen, Will Grier, Taylor Heineke, Teddy Bridgewater and PJ Walker.

Agreed. Was irritating to still see them poo on Sam. You know who else had notorious happy feet? Peyton Manning. As long as he continues to read the field, plants his foot and and drives the throws right on target then I dont care.

Id argue its better. Corners are glued to their guys, the pass rush is swarming Wilson and impacting every throw. Wilson's had his arm sleeve shredded since the 1st quarter from guys grabbing at it. That doesn't show up in a box score that says: "Z. Wilson pass incomplete short left"

Again. Has looked SOLID. Theres 2 missed throws for TDs im sure he'd like back but he's shown me a hell of a lot in just one half. Looking forward to seeing how he builds and adjusts.

lol

I'm getting serious 2013 Giants game vibes where the headlines the next morning referred to the game as a "Feeding Frenzy" I bet these players missed having fans in the stands and as a fan I've missed having something to cheer for.

Want another takeaway before the half. Im getting greedy now.

Atta boy Sam. Hes had a couple misses, unfortunately in the red zone and both would have been TDs but he has been fuging solid outside of that. Robby had to let up a bit to get it but damn what a dime.

fug YEA edit: this is not the GameDay thread lol

Favorite pie?

Grier gets the nod from me for now. With the exception of the throw on the miscommunication he looked solid. Neither he or PJ are going to win us games with their play. If we only keep one and don't add a Veteran during final cuts then my preference comes down to which on helps Darnold get better behind the scenes. Is one of them better than the other in the film room, have a better grasp on the playbook etc. Backups should make the starters better. QB is no different.

There are well over a dozen sites that don't require a login, don't require you to pay a penny and broadcast the game in perfect 1080p with at most a 10ish second delay and maybe a pop up or 2 to close out of. They are also completely illegal and as such, not posting links because people posting links is a good way to bring unwanted trouble. Use Google, use reddit, its not hard guys.

Not saying its better but never forget this classic after the Matt Moore Vikings upset. Smitty: "Ya know, 22, little youngster, had something to say so I just had to establish the rules and regulations of the game." Reporter: "Which were?" Smitty: "89. Bottom Line. Thats why he's going home" 89BottomLine has been my Xbox and PS name ever since
