***Cleveland at Kansas City -9.5 (57)*** Progressive vs State Farm (5 Viewers)

[The Frankman]

I know a lot of Bell's style is patience and knowing how his line blocks/flows  into the play, but he's really struggled in his Chiefs' tenure.

 

[rockaction]

According to This, they were 9th

I was gonna look that up, too.

 

[DallasDMac]

Getting that OSU/ALA vibe all over again.

 

[IHEARTFF]

This is when Kelce catches tds. Wonder if they go for 2, probably not.

I think that Bell’s patience has evolved into sluggishness

 

[Steve Tasker]

I see what you're saying, but that is the halftime show that every woman in the world watches at Super Bowl parties while the men who are into football congregate in the other room watching the NFL Network. It's so stereotypical but it absolutely happens.  

Seems like good reach, actually. 

I mean I don't mind The Weeknd (though I do think his transformation from drug-addled depressingly-sexual R&B artist to clean-cut pop star has been hilarious)....I just don't get the promos for it for weeks on end leading up to the show.  Then again I'm not in marketing.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Looks as if Cleveland needs to spend all their draft picks and any extra money on defense.

Or it could be Bell was never that great and was largely the creation of the Steelers' dominant line at the time.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

So officially no Combine this year.

Sure it's a marketing ploy, but it's fun.

He got what he thought he wanted. Karma is a fickle b.......

It's especially tough when there is no monoculture anyone and it took me (who was late to the game on the Weeknd because I was just never that curious to find out about him) a few moments to know who they were talking about when they finally showed him (which I understand has always been part of his gig -- smartly. Not because he's ugly, but because it was just slick anti-marketing).

No Combine?

Well, that sucks. I really do want to know what they run when it's all standard. I think dynasty second and third round picks are really up in the air, then.

[The Frankman]

Bell was legit good, his process was solid. Not everyone is a creation of their lines.

ooo Air kelce for 6.

 

[HellToupee]

Andy Reid’s mask looks like a Chiefs branded feed bag . Just doesn’t look right

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Ward left his shoes and vaginal pad on the field.   Wow

 

[Moe Green]

This isn't fair.

 

[Osaurus]

I guess that hold was good for the Chiefs 

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Looks like? I'd bet even money there's oats in there.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Gave them more room for Kelce's route.

 

[rockaction]

Yeah, and he's done what since he left? Nothing. Nada. Squat. He was legitimately a good receiver out of the backfield.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Ward can't cover a TE?

 

[rockaction]

Chubb and Hunt in the backfield together.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Not because he's ugly, but because it was just slick anti-marketing).

The Trilogy was pretty good, albeit maybe a little too much filler for me, like most double/triple albums.  He's got a tremendous voice that really lends itself to a slick, club-friendly R&B sound.  His cover of "Dirty Diana" is probably my favorite of his - it's fantastic.  

But I've kinda lost track of him over the past few years.  I know the radio hits but just wasn't drawn enough to his music to really keep up with his stuff.  I don't even think I listened to that 2020 album.

 

[rzrback77]

Browns need a long drive and score to slow momentum 

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Ward can't cover a TE?

tOSU cornerbacks are super overrated.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Patrick has a big toe problem. Ironic since he is the symbolic big toe of his team.

 

[DallasDMac]

Ugh.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Looked like only 1 foot in on that catch

 

[The Frankman]

Yeah, and he's done what since he left? Nothing. Nada. Squat. He was legitimately a good receiver out of the backfield.

Body breaks down after all those years of pounding. That's why RBs want to get paid early and he was underpaid; now he's obviously not the runner he was but he can still be pretty good as long as his vision/decision-making hold up.

 

[Steve Tasker]

I'm not really sure why people bag on Mayfield.  I know the Browns had all that hype last year and kinda fell apart, but he's looked pretty good to me for much of the season.  Perfect touch on that throw to Peoples-Jones right there.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Surprised KC didn’t challenge

 

[DallasDMac]

Geezus Chubb.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

4 dropped passes so far

 

[IHEARTFF]

Surprised Hunt is not in for those screens

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Chubb making me look bad.

 

[rzrback77]

Holding call on the Browns much much worse as they can’t overcome

He looked real bad last year. Like he would constantly roll to his right and flail the ball out of bounds. I had him as a fantasy QB in Summerpalooza so I watched him. It wasn't pretty. I traded him in the end it was so bad. I mean, he did nothing statistically or play-wise. It was enough where publications were questioning whether he was the answer.

 

[DallasDMac]

Surprised KC didn’t challenge

No need. Just allowed Clev to give it back.

Tiptoeing to the line is generally not called "patience" like his was, and I still think it was the line moving mountains for him that made him so good. He wasn't built well, wasn't fast, and crept up to the line. He had very few explosive plays over twenty, so it was more volume than anything.

 

[rockaction]

Surprised KC didn’t challenge

That was out of bounds. He didn't get both in. I was surprised, too.

 

[DallasDMac]

Hopefully the Clev D can hold KC to another TD. Keep them in the game.

 

[Bobcat10]

Chubb and Hunt in the backfield together.

It’s rare, very rare, unfortunately 

 

[DocHolliday]

Hopefully the Clev D can hold KC to another TD. Keep them in the game.

I’m losing interest in this game.  

 

[Bobcat10]

Holding call on the Browns much much worse as they can’t overcome

Didn’t care for the call. Bailed out KC too.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I feel bad for the Brown offense. They literally have to score every time they touch the ball.

 

[DallasDMac]

Nice aggressive D by Ward. Backs up twice and just concedes the 1st down.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Cleveland has a shameful defense.   Just looks semipro 

 

[DallasDMac]

Clev can't stop the pass but at least KC is running well.

I picked a bad time to jump into this thread.
