Not sure if i agree. Rico is more explosive and runs just as well early in the game as he does late. Hubbard seems to be more of a gets better as the game goes along type, but i think he needs our interior line healthy. He also seems to be hesitant right now, and waits to long. He might get better as the season rolls along.

In fairness, the Jets have played virtually everyone tough. Two point losses to the Steelers, Bucs, and Broncos. Only the Bills blew them out. They have a defense that has played well at times. Regarding the Dolphins, early turnovers put us in a hole, but we played very well after the first qtr.

I suppose it depends on the definition of elite. I wouldn't consider Baker elite, but he is probably top 10 or 15 in the NFL.

I forgot about Burrow, he is elite when healthy.

He had to wait on the ball as it was a slow/softball type of pass. He also would have to hesitate for just a split second to decide which way to go. The WR might have gotten him, or the linemen might have slowed him down just enough for someone else to catch him. That being said, he should have caught it, but I don't think its that big of a deal, especially since we won.

So many NFL coaches do that, leave a valuable starter in when the game is no longer in doubt. If I am the Washington or Seattle Coach right now, I would have as many starters as I could on the bench. Serious injuries are far more likely than some crazy comeback.

I thought we might be close for a while. You guys were coming off a big win in Pitt, and we were blown out by Buffalo, so we had some motivation while you guys were due for a letdown. But I didn't think we would win.

I think Canales answered this question (temporarily) today. I do wonder if Rico will be able to go next week though as he was pretty beat up today.

NFL and indeed sports in general can just seem so crazy and inconsistent at times. We destroyed Atlanta. We got buried by Buffalo and New England. Atlanta beat Buffalo and nearly beat New England. Atlanta lost to Miami and we beat up on them after a bad first quarter. Green Bay beat the two best teams it has played, yet tied Dallas and lost to Cleveland. Guess all the craziness is part of the reason we love it.

Washington looks terrible. Darnold might have 300 yards by halftime. Seahawks have a good team, but I think its just going to be one of those nights for Washington.

I don't think there was a chance that he would have gotten a pick 6. He had to wait to long on the ball.

With that INT, Ty Okada might want to try out for WR.

He is great in run defense, and not bad in pass defense.

Losing a SB, or a WS is far worse. Most of us still haven't gotten over the 2016 SB.

If you look at the list of elite Qb's playing today, not a one of them was drafted number one. In fact, only one (stafford) has been to a SB.

Lots of youth is the only thing i can figure out. Young players tend to be less consistent.

Apparently the special teams coach made the call that allowed us to have the wind in the second half.

Absolutely. Love made several very bad throws in the second half. The moon shot int, and the one that MJ dropped. In a close low scoring game in bad weather, the team with the fewest mistakes usually wins

They didn't come out well. They sucked before tanking, during tanking, and after tanking.

They are also a prime example of why teams should NOT Tank.

I didn't give any amounts, so not really over estimating. He would be an additional investment. Not saying we should or shouldn't do it.

Except that we have already invested in Chuba. Rico would be additional investment. Its not an either or situation. If we trade Hubbard, we would likely have a lot of dead money/cap space used up. At least for next year anyway.

We aren't trading Dowdle, unless someone makes a ridiculous offer for him.

In fairness, most buyers are teams that feel they have a shot at going deep in the playoffs, and Morgan hasn't been in that spot with the Panthers. If we were 6-2 and Morgan felt we needed to patch one or two holes, I could see him making a trade.

SMU wins. Beck threw a bad int in OT.
