Trying to decide between him and Mike Evans. Might sound crazy, but Winston/Evans connection has been weak. And Pitt could be without it's top 2 ILBs. And their run D was bad before they went down.
This isn't because SF is a stalwart run D. Difference here is that Long got dinged and the rest of the front line played horridly. And I call two more things into question: 1) Fox's game plan -- it wasn't as if Chicago was trailing by a lot, having led the first half, so not sure why they weren't leaning on Howard more, or why the only calls that were being made were predictable right-up-the-middle calls; 2) Howard almost looked like he didn't want to be playing -- not much pop or fire.So was Howard. That worked out swell.
Howard also can't catch, and the Bears have NO other weapons on offense. I don't see SF selling out to stop Miller with Hopkins running wild.This isn't because SF is a stalwart run D.

BAL should keep this game close, and I can see a heavy dose of ball control.
You were saying?37 yd reception where he was hit hard 2 yds in. Blasted through the tackle tiptoed down the sidelines.
Kid is really good.
Wow. Kid just keeps working.
Seems like a no brainer Collins and KamaraHe is going to make things tough on me when its time to declare 2 keepers next season.
Collins will cost me an 11th round pick, Kamara a 10th round, Gurley a 1st or D. Cook a 3rd.
Couple years ago I sat next to the Barbarian at the United Club Lounge at LGA. He had on a full length mink coat. He was a little strange but that might have been the bourbon. Or CTE.It took me a while, but I finally realized who he reminds me of, he runs a lot like Marion Barber III for the Cowboys a few years ago, hard to tackle, runs bigger than he really is.
Good Lord, I just Googled it and the quote wasn't about MJD. It was uttered by Chuck Pagano describing ...What was that famous line about MJD? A rolling ball of butchers knives?
Oh no the quote of death...Good Lord, I just Googled it and the quote wasn't about MJD. It was uttered by Chuck Pagano describing ...

That one hurt the worst. I thought for sure they would give it to Collins again to give him the opportunity to finish off that drive. Instead the do that dumb FB dive.I really could have used those 2 TDs that Allen vultured. Pretty sure he scored on the one where he rolled over the guy but I get why you don't challenge it.
It's starting to look more and more unlikely now> They have to be impressed with him and willing to let him be the man next year now, one would think.I am a believer, I think the Ravens would be morons to take a running back back in the first 3 or 4 rounds unless someone dropped to them.
My team really could have used one of those 2 TDs.Collins would be an even bigger stud if BAL didn't use Woodhead and Allen so much in the passing game.....or allow Allen to vulture 2 TDs!
Luckily I didn't need it. But I don't understand how you allow your stud to make a really nice run and get stopped at the 1 yard line.....and not let him finish it off. At least give him the next try.My team really could have used one of those 2 TDs.
It was the same thing when Collins had 2 TDs. They threw on first and goal from the 1 twice and got it. Its like they purposefully try to make sure he doesnt get too many TDs or something.My team really could have used one of those 2 TDs.
To be fair that play worked and got them a TD. Real football teams don’t care who gets it. They actually used Collins very nicely as a decoy (he faked running out wide) and did a quick handoff to the FB. Great play design.Luckily I didn't need it.
