The one yesterday as a picture perfect definition of pass interference, the defender was holding his other arm by the wrist, it seems to happen at least once ever week where a clear cut PI isn't called against him.

wait, what now?!?! Two games to decide division winners, and the league's brilliant idea is to make them play on one less day of rest on short notice? That seems completely crazy to me, I realize TV is where the money comes from, but this is ridiculous for two of the games that mean the most this week.

I think his shin went down before his toe came down out of bounds

The DB was literally grabbing his other arm by the wrist, yet another missed PI call against him

I was curious so just went and looked, I'm not so sure Jeanty should be dismissed, particularly if he can put together a good final two weeks. You note here his 55 yards per game, but he also has 50 rec for 326 yards and 5 TDs in the passing game, that can't just be dismissed and only look at his rushing stats. Jeanty has 1,154 scrimmage yards and 10 TDs this year with 2 games to go and very well could hit 1k rushing as well. I'm not saying he should win it over T-Mac, but the more I look at his numbers, I'm surprised he isn't considered to be more in the running at the moment (granted, 188 yards and 2 TDs were just this week to help boost those numbers, but they're still impressive for any rookie, even if people expected more out of him before the season)

I’m surprised Harvey has that long of odds, he has quietly put up a real nice rookie season that I didn’t even realize until last night. He has 787 yards from scrimmage and 11 TDs so far this year, if he ends up with 1k total yards and 12 or 13 TDs, he might be a real contender for the award.

This team is nowhere near good enough to rest players for a week and have them lose their edge even the slightest.

Why did he not get any credit on that gang sack? I'll be honest, on the replays of it, I was only watching Horn to try and see what happened to him (which btw, have we heard?). But I could have sworn when watching live, he was the main guy to be wrapping Baker up on the play, no?

If Henderson just got a concussion and will possibly/probably now miss next week as well, gotta think missing 2 games of stats at this point of the year might knock him out as he was only just entering the discussion the last few weeks anyways. Same goes for Judkins going down today too, and Dart's god awful game likely removes him from the conversation as well. It will be interesting to see how the voters compare T-Mac and Egbuka if they end up with stats that are nearly identical. Egbuka burst onto the scene and put up the bulk of his stats early in the year when Baker was playing like the MVP front runner. While T-Mac was just more consistent throughout the course of the full season (ex. Egbuka has 8 games of 42 yards or less, T-Mac has 4 of them, while T-Mac still scored 3 TDs in those 4 games, where Egbuka only scored 1 TD in his 8). It would be a shame if they put too much weight on the final game of the season if that ends up being the division decider, as I think T-Mac has had the better SEASON while Egbuka had a better peak output during that first month or so but way cooled off since. Maybe Warren goes off in the last 3 games (they still play tomorrow), but it does seem to be down to T-Mac and Egbuka right now.

After he fell down and got back up to run, that next time going down was him clearly giving himself up, which draws an immediate whistle, no different than a QB sliding in that situation.

What he's done for the locker room culture is incalculable and will have an impact on the franchise for years to come, and I thank him so much and give him full credit for that. But I still think he's beyond terrible as a game planning and play calling coach, and if you suck at both of those, you really shouldn't be an NFL HC. He's not a Dan Campbell, there are very few HC's who can be successful as rah rah guys, I don't think Canales can be one.

crap, did Horn just break his hand/arm getting trapped in there on that gang tackle?

That's the same throw Bryce made last week to T-Mac in the same exact spot, threw it behind him when a little ahead of the WR is an easy TD

But I was told he isn't able to make contested catches today

I've been saying all year that I think Canales explicitly tells Bryce when to be throwing to T-Mac and when he explicitly shouldn't be, it's like Canales has specific times he only wants to use him as a decoy and others where the ball MUST be thrown to him. Far too often he's either the only read or he was never in the progression before Bryce threw to someone else, it's really strange.
