Nice backside pursuit by Khalil Mack

I'm with you on this, @Smitty. I like Ferguson but you take a QB who can play over that any day.

I'm not sure that Howell can play. So far all I've seen is that he can throw for a bunch of meaningless yards.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

He’s leading the league in passing yards on a team that can’t keep him upright. Dude is better than Daniel Jones.

Yeah, he has his flaws. I’m not saying he’s better than Dak…. yet. He has many Romo qualities that you’d love to have though.

He has an 87 QB rating. That's very Daniel Jones level.

I agree, the Eagles are good. We need the 49ers to beat them. We need to beat them and then suddenly they can be put squarely in the third best team in the NFC spot where they belong. Maybe that would shake their confidence a bit.

If by some miracle we all end up 14-3 the tiebreaking rules would put SF on top with a 2-0 record vs Dal and Philly, and then head to head tiebreakers would take over between Dal/Phi where we tie in the first three tiebreakers but lose the 4th tiebreaker of conference record thanks to the Cardinals loss.

Bottom line we need Philly to lose three more games before they drop to third place. That Gabe Davis pass cost us any chance at tiebreakers.

They have all but sealed the division.

Justin Herbert's Y-shaped finger tape job looks like Borat's wrestling outfit.

The Eagles are good, but Hurts isn’t good enough that they should be Super Bowl runner up/10-1 good.

That shoe is just taking an awful long time to drop. What does he do well besides scramble and tush push?

Feels a lot like the 2008 Giants

I don't think it's the same at all.

The Giants were absolutely rolling and looked like a team that was set to get back to the Super Bowl and then Plaxico Burress shot himself.

If that doesn't happen, I think the Giants get to and likely win the SB that year.

2011 Packers?

They lost four of five including the playoff opener. Losing one player should not account for that much of a skid. Their OL started to wear down, I think we sacked Eli 5 times

That's a better comparison.

It wasn't just losing the player, it's how they lost him.

I'm glad it did that to them because I hate the Giants but there's no denying the mental effect that had on the team for them to lose their most dominant player and to do so in that fashion.

Plaxico was playing the best football of his career when he derailed that season.

Jason Garrett:

"Jerry Rice is the greatest slant runner of all time and OBJ might be the second"

 

[NoDak]

He’s leading the league in passing yards, this isn’t Cooper Rush. He’s far better than say, Daniel Jones. You cannot find that guy in the mid rounds “every year.” Maybe you can find a guy in the first round of that caliber every year, but I even doubt that frankly.

This is just anti Washington bias, kinda silly really. There are 32 starters and he’s far closer to the middle than he is the bottom of that list of 32.

First round, you say? And even then, maybe not that caliber?



Ok.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

I think it was like 8 times. Pretty sure we led the league in sacks that year.

 

[Genghis Khan]

I can’t believe the league hasn’t figured out Hurts yet. All he can do is scramble.

He's horrible.

 

[Texas Ace]

I mean, that's not even close to being an accurate statement.

I don't even think he's top 5, but it's blasphemous for Garrett to say that when he played with Michael Fucking Irvin.

I mean, are you serious???

 

[Texas Ace]

@Genghis Khan

I see what you're doing, you hating ass hoe!

I refuse to give them any credit.

Or Allen for that matter.

Leads the league in yardage... BFD. He plays from behind all the time. I'd say that's a pretty good opportunity to sling the ball around.

He threw for 300 yds against Dallas. With 0 TDs and a pick 6. Lost 45-10.

But he had those 300 yards, tho.

More Jameis Winston lead-the-league than Dan Fouts.
