I have watched him in several games.

I think he is worlds better than Tua.

And might be better long run than Burrow.

Don't ask me how. He looks like he is 16 with his shitty haircut and acne.

He's making some nice throws so far taking what's open

I've gotten used to the Thursday night game. I guess it's better to have it than not.

But the NFL Draft on Thurs/Fri is still a constitutional violation.

I don't think I've ever rooted for the Chargers. 2020's been a helluva year.

What's the most heated rivalry right now?

Seahawks-49ers was several years ago but lost most its luster this year. Hopefully that'll bounce back next year. Ravens-Steelers isn't close to what it was when Terrell Suggs was there. Sure as hell aint anyone with us.

Carr was scrambling and looked to Kevin Smith his achilles. Got pushed in the back out of bounds might have triggered it.

Didn't play another down and in the locker room now.

They said groin and how he grabbed at it, it definitely is not an Achilles.

Herbert just cracks me up.

He just does not look like a stud NFL QB with the teenager-like acne.

But he's up there in terms of rookie passing production all-time.

The way announcers talk about analytics, it's like analytics say go for it on any and every 4th down unless it's a GW FG attempt.

You missed a real impressive play. Poised in the pocket and after a couple seconds when the pocket started to collapse, then scrambled to his right with Raider chasing him. A couple steps away from the sideline, he throws across his chest 15-yards downfield around the hashmarks for a completion to a TE running away from Herbert. Close coverage behind the TE, too.

Was thrown low and with velocity.

And that is not even remotely true.

To be honest, I hate the movement.

Somehow, someway the game of football existed for decades without mathematical analysis.

Most of the time, it is common fucking sense.
