He looked fine. They shoukd have thrown less!

I don't know about less but I said in the game thread I think they should have focused more on the short and intermediate game. Jalen wasn't connecting on the deep throws or taking too long to let them develop and taking sacks. I'd be interested to see net passing yards broken down by depth of target but guess you can't do that for the sacks when no one was actually targeted.

I thought those times are determined by conference for years in advance

I’m sure you could if you break down the full game all-22

it is so hard to figure out. My thoughts are the final 4 teams can all beat, and lose to each other. They all have flaws. Optimistic opinion of this game is that they were up 28-15 with a little over 3:00 to go left in the game.
I really did have flashbacks to the Atlanta game this year.

The slant they threw to Goedert to convert on fourth was great. They seem to want to run Barkley (great) or take long shots (not great) and refuse to do the little 5-10 yard quick hitters. It’s kinda ridiculous. I’ll say it again for maybe the 50th time but that AJ slant up the middle ALWAYS converts and ALWAYS gets 15-25 yards.
I just don’t understand the calls when it comes to the passing game. They clearly trust Jalen to launch it 20-40 yards to AJ into double coverage- why not some WC offense slants, screens etc to get him warmed up. The offense is so good with Saquon but the rams were clearly selling out to stop the run which should be the key to opening the short and intermediate pass game for easy first downs. Yet we only do the slow developing **** which in tonight’s weather seemed….ill-advised.

it looks like it was right after the game. It looked to me originally like a clavicle fracture or broken. Avoiding that, could just be a stinger or something

this is a good story. I admit I was skeptical as of last year, super stoked he showed he is legit:
"Nolan Smith is up to 9.5 sacks over his last 14 games. Since Week 6, only 7 NFL players have more sacks:
Trey Hendrickson
Will Anderson Jr.
Myles Garrett
Nik Bonitto
Micah Parsons
Danielle Hunter
George Karlaftis

Honestly, I'm on the phone with the Browns to see what they'd take for Garrett. Him on one side, Smith on the other and Carter in the middle would be an unblockable defensive front.

I shaved about 3 years off my life and another 2 on the ride home!!!
We made that a lot tougher than we needed to for sure. Jalen had a very concerning game with missed receivers, mainly RB’s. Nearly every sack or bad decision (watch Barkley on the safety play) he had a simple check down for 5-10 yards and refused to take it.
He was in a good deal of pain and I can’t imagine he’s going to be in good shape for this weekend.
I expected better of AJ Brown today too. Dropped balls and some awful attempts at blocks
The OL also didn’t look great for a decent amount of time. That Verse kid is going to be special too. He was doing very well on almost every OL he went against.
Thank god Nolan Smith and Jalen Carter continued to get better. Such great games from those two when it mattered.
I missed the presser, did Nick address that odd decision to let the clock tick down in the second quarter?
I don’t know what the upside is to having Elliot on the roster either.
Crazy as it sounds it feels like we’re the underdogs next week in a revenge game. Hope the injuries aren’t too much!

Jalen Carter played the most dominant game of his career today. All day long: the FF, the 2 sacks. Just a complete gamewrecker

the one that stood out to me the most was AJ. I would like to think the game is somewhat a throwaway game because of the weather, but who knows.
As for next week, I have no idea what to think. Can go so many ways. I wouldn't mind seeing them go for 2 instead of XPs either if they can't see different from zelliot with XPs

I have watched the replay of him punching the ball out of Kyren's hands like 10 times. That is such an underrated great play. I have seen Baun do it a bit too, and I think Dean got one. So glad they worked on those during the bye, it is great to see

Footballguy
the crazy thing is, I am not so sure he would have been this successful on quite a few of those teams. There was so much talk about his personality and where he was at mentally. It is like he leaned in the perfect spot, and it worked for him as well. I think maybe 7-8 teams have a strong enough infrastructure to help a guy like Carter succeed.
This is all based on reports from his rookie and around the draft, so I don't know the validity of all the reports, but it seems to have worked out great for both parties.

He’ll never be that player again. That was his ceiling. He’s gonna be chasing that his whole career as he’s never going to be consistent

He’s looked disinterested and lazy the last several weeks after BG called him and Hurts out to fix their ****.

Carter needed a strong locker room and GM to keep his head up. Most of those teams who passed on him had zero to no leaders or people to coach him through stuff

And can we finally be concerned about Jordan Davis?

Don't worry about that too much. Washington is on something like their 5th kicker this year --- Gonzales, who has had some terrible misses and is still recovering from a hip injury. He's been trying to kick his dog for 4 days now and still hasn't connected. The only good thing to say about Gonzales is that that he fixes his hair more times on the way out to kick a FG than any kicker in history.
