Playoff discussion

[Krypto_King]

Has there ever been a team that started as hot as Pittsburgh and fade away so fast.

my Russ, DK, Zeke stack

oof... my condolences. Did you make the playoffs at least?

lol barely. Russ turning into 2016-2018 Larry Fitz with these collapses

[Krypto_King]

Great game though, Wildcard weekend saved the best for last.

And I love that there were 6 games this weekend rather than 4

I do like 6, just not sure I could call that NO v CHI a game. It's probably going to happen every year with 14 teams in the playoffs though but hey I'll take the extra 2 games still

let's make it like dynasty and 7th seed goes to most points scored

Fine with me! More running up the score

Both of these Tomlin punts were awful. 4th and 9 in Cleveland territory down 28 and 4th and 1 from your own 46 down 12 in the 4th. Indefensible. The Vrabel punt might have been even worse. All three punts felt like fireable offenses.

At least neither of them accepted the medal of freedom from a seditionist traitor to the republic.

Neither did the GOAT, apparently. Damn.

Listened to the TB-WAS telecast. Announcer said that Taylor Heineke had said he is very familiar with Cam Sims and Steven Sims, and then the announcer said that explains why they had out targeted McLaurin.

I mean, it kind of does eh? Chemistry between a WR and their QB is very often overlooked. DK had a breakout season because him and Russ spent half a year together in Mexico constantly practicing and building chemistry. It is also why Edelman with Brady is a top 10 WR on any given year, despite a very sub par measurables profile (not extremely athletic, nor grand in stature) they had that bond and it elevated both IMO. It is also why when a WR moves to a new team it is nearly a certainty that they will produce less in their first season on the new team.

One of McLaurin's selling points was his connection to Haskins. It suggested he could hit the ground running. I could imagine someone seeing that Cam Sims showed that McLaurin's WR1 position is not unassailable and that a player brought in to to compete for a WR2 spot could push McLaurin into a robin role instead.

Edelmans leaping and agility are quite good actually, the only thing mediocre is the 40 time. But I get your point

Davante Adams getting schemed open, not sure he can play

Adams is a very good WR. I think most of the current top 15 WRs would be the fantasy WR1 and media top WR if they were in Adams situation though. Rodgers is that good.

[Blueboy]

Van Jefferson's numbers aren't popping off necessarily, but he's looking solid with Kupp out.

Roman needs to go. This crap doesn't work in the playoffs

BUFs D has been very good since the Cardinals game

Until Lamar and the passing game can consistently win from the pocket this is probably the ceiling for the Ravens. Im not sure an OC change cures those ailments.
