They can’t use the injury excuse much longer for Jayden and Washington imo. Even when hes played this year it hasn’t been great.
 
Seattle is so under rated!

Jaxson Smith Nbgja is great player.
Pats might have been better off taking him than Gonzales
Do you trust that the staff we had in place would’ve been able to develop JSN the way Seattle has?
 
The trade off is, they wouldn't have a CB. He was the right pick in 2023.
True. However JSN is probably the best WR in league this year.
Gonzales is very good when healthy.
JSN would be perfect with Maye

There's my binky.
 
I see Chicago put up 47 points today. Has Ben Johnson actually been able to turn Caleb Williams into something useful? Or is the Bengals defense just that bad?

I'll post it again, but yes, the Bengals defense is atrocious.

Flacco in his 4 games:

144 points
1250+ yards.

And they've only won 1 game.

They got beat by the Jets even though they scored 38 pts.

I mean truly, I'm sure we have some football stat savants here, has there ever been as bad a defense as both the 24/25 Bengals?

Smith-Njigba looks like a really good WR and I want an elite WR as much as anyone. Although WR has always been a need with the Pats since 2018, CB was also a major need as well after the 2022 season. WR's were Mossing them all year and Gonzalez was the best available player.

Taking a WR that high would've been too risky given the poor track record. We would've been pissed if Bill took a WR that busted while Gonzalez has already made All Pro in his first full year starting. Really good CB's are very difficult to find these days.

90 Patriots have to be on that list. 08 Lions were pretty ****ing terrible.
 
That massive early start by the Commanders LT was so bad it got Jawaan Taylor jealous.

Took a quick glance and found this:

Patriots in 70 & 72, 25 & 31 respectively, were worst in PPG this years.

Second worst of all time? 2020 Lions at 32.4.

Bengals currently at 31.6 ppg. Last 4 games, they're at 36.5.

Number one spot are '81 Colts at 33.3 ppg.

Bengals could legit post the worst defense of all time this season.
 
Darnold might break records tonight if the Seahawks don’t bring the backups in the 3rd quarter
 
Wow the skins suck badly, i think its the retread head coach
 
4 TD passes by Darnold in the half. What a turnaroumd for this kid.
 
Darnold is 13/13 with 18 YPA. Lmao! Get some.
 
These guys are wide open
 
Jayden Daniels is almost 2 years older and played 29 more games in college than Drake so it should be no surprise he was better as a rookie, it's possible he came in already at his ceiling though and Drake was nowhere near it.
