That's what happens when you're down to your last two CBs and last two OTs...

So, let's say somebody takes a hand-off, goes 20 yards, and then punts the ball. What's the penalty, who gets the ball, and can the defense decline? (If they decline, what's the next LOS?)

IIRC, you can punt anytime, any place. (But I might be wrong. Maybe wrong. I can't imagine punting on a kick return being legal...)

My $.02 from CLE... This is unnaturally bad for Baker. He doesn't miss open throws. In previous seasons, there's always been a reason for a bad game. This time there is none. My guess is that he was taped up or wearing some sort of device that restricted his range of motion due to the previous week's dislocation (of his non-throwing shoulder). I am also willing to speculate that next week we'll be back to the old Baker -- one way or another.

I enjoyed the insight the Mannings provided. Favre was good, once he got it out. That might have been him fighting tech issues, though. I'd like to see a defensive mind paired with Peyton on the broadcast.

My $.02 Don't disregard the effect Landry had on all phases of the offense. Third downs, gadget plays, and especially downfield blocking. The man balls out every play!! He'll be back in 3-4 weeks. In the meantime, DPJ got a lot of usage in week 2, albeit without many fantasy points. I'm guessing that continues, at least from a usage standpoint. I think he's ahead of Higgins right now. Schwartz is OBJ's back-up, it seems. He'll see reps as OBJ is phased back in. My guess is, it's OBJ & DPJ with the rest sprinkled in. Also, don't forget the TEs. They are used extensively! Felton, BTW, is a KR and COP guy. He isn't a WR.

My $.02 from CLE... The only limiting factor is the number of weapons on the Browns offense. It's not his "flakey" nature or his injury in 2020. He is 100% and focused. It's not Baker Mayfield. Baker's 2020 was superb given the circumstances, and the Browns averaged over 30 ppg when the two of them played together. If he doesn't put up 10 TDs, it'll be because the ball gets spread around. Everyone, the backs, the TEs, the many WRs, will eat!

Once bitten, twice shy. When he first appeared, I gambled on his potential. He, needless to say, came up short. I won't be drafting him on potential again. His value going forward lacks that aspect in this house, making him a wr4 at best.

Would you trade Rodgers for Watson?

Still curious how people would evaluate a Watson for Rodgers trade.

Especially days 2 & 3, I'd like to see every pick announced within one minute of receiving it (the pick is in...). I spent WAY too much of my life waiting on BS.

Watson for Rodgers

Yeah. It's nice to see them target specific guys for our team. I like it!! I want to see the drafting part playout, though.

Wasn't fond of the QBs, especially JM, but I thought acquiring the top CB in the draft was a slam dunk. A kid at Christmas!

True dat. I suppose getting a good CB added to the team should be enough. Everyone else looks to (potentially) have flaws, depending what you read. MAYBE JOK is the next big thing, an evolutionary step at LB. I hope so. MAYBE Schwartz shows he's not just wheels. MAYBE the 4th round linemen are able to produce at this level despite some shortcomings. MAYBE I'm just jaded because all the Indians' "maybes" turn out to be zeroes. I've said I trust AB and I do.
