***Game 272 - Detroit at Green Bay -4.5, o/u 49.0*** (1 Viewer)

[BobbyLayne]

Jack Fox (punter/holder) is a good passer

 

[travdogg]

Its funny, I was just thinking, why isn't Detroit using their best RB (Jamaal) more?

 

[BobbyLayne]

which round you guys figure Jake Moody will go in?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Huh. DC kicking. No good.

This guy's just not a great kicker.

IIRC he was good until he trademarked his own nickname.

 

[rockaction]

Never mind. He just stinks.

He's been a subject of debate in the Lions thread because his penchant to not follow his blocks and bounce everything outside has become serious business

 

[sho nuff]

Bad challenge too. Lafleur needs to wake up.

How was that ruled incomplete? I left the room out of annoyance, because it seemed like such a dumb challenge based on the first replay angle.

It sure looked like a catch to me.

Seriously, was there a 2nd angle where it looked like a drop?

No, and the guys in the booth said it hit the ground with his hands off of it - but he caught it in stride and took 3 more steps. Wtf.

I mean. i thought was a catch. but there was no in stride and two steps. He caught it going to the ground

I mean……I’m clearly a GB homer. But I don’t see any way that’s an incompletion. This league is just so dumb sometimes.

I agree…just disagree that there was some in stride with two steps.

 

[travdogg]

So, I know this is a playoff game of sorts, but my points league fantasy team needs 17.3 points from ARSB to win the league. Not feeling great at the moment.

 

[rockaction]

I think he was passable, but he really hasn't been since the TM. Misses a lot from 40+, I think, though I only pay limited attention to it. He's bounced around quite a bit, it seems.

Looked like he took steps to me. Maybe I was hallucinating. Certainly possible.

I may have also had a few pregame whiskeys

Kickers don’t typically go in the 1st, so that’s probably off the table.

That said, I have no idea. He’s good though.

Graduate Jake Moody: No. 3 kicker​

A three-time All-Big Ten honoree, Jake Moody was a 2021 consensus All-American and Michigan’s first ever Lou Groza Award winner, which is handed out to the nation’s top kicker. He led the team with 125 points, the second-highest single-season total in program history and most-ever by a kicker, nailing 23 of his 25 field goal attempts with a program-record 56 extra points. He also sailed 98 kickoffs with a 62.8-yard average and 65 touchbacks.

Hang in there little camper buddy.

 

[sho nuff]

Watson a big big part of the game plan.

 

[BobbyLayne]

We're hosting a watch party with about 15 friends. Wife has a pretty good spread lined up.

good news is nobody wants to watch the 2nd half lol

Hang tight - I’ll catch up. I have a bottle of Widow Jane calling my name.

Anything before the fourth is GM suicide. See: Aguayo, Roberto. That almost sunk the Tampa GM. Good thing he inherited a little bit of Brady.

 

[SoBeDad]

Watson went to school at ND State. Maybe he needs cold weather to warm up.

 

[rockaction]

I don't see how you take a Watson as OROTY when there's Olave there.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I have him in tnat 16-team dynasty orphan I took over.

I would really like him to be as good as he’s been in the past.

I don’t love his usage. I also don’t love that he’ll have a huge game, and then be used in an entirely different way the next game (often to less success)

He does make some poor decisions, but that OL isn’t doing him a ton of favors & some of the play selection seems Ill suited to his game.

Lions should be throwing to him 8x a game, minimum.

 

[rockaction]

Think ND State plays indoors. I watched a ton of highlights for Watson, and it seemed that way. That's really ****ing cold up there.

You got this. We’re all pulling for ya.

 

[BobbyLayne]

weird call

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

weird call

It’s going around this game.

 

[rockaction]

Why did Rodgers essentially give up on the play and throw a real life trial balloon after the offsides, though?

 

[BobbyLayne]

we just said watch Houston jump here

 

[IHEARTFF]

I don't see how you take a Watson as OROTY when there's Olave there.

Walker?
Outside late push by Purdy maybe

 

[travdogg]

I don't see how you take a Watson as OROTY when there's Olave there.

I'm not sure Watson is even top-5.

Im on to beer brought back from Wisconsin last week. Some New Glarus Road Slush stouts with few spotted cows mixed in.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Walker >>>>Everyone rlse

I know fantasy numbers aren’t everything but I’m my two leagues he’s number 2 in scoring in both just behind Pickett for rookies

 

[sho nuff]

Recency bias. Don’t think of Watson as ROTY either though.

 

[rockaction]

Walker?

Yes, also. I forgot for a moment.

Purdy won't win it because he wasn't there long enough.

 

[efactor]

we just said watch Houston jump here

I think there was steam coming out of Campbell's ears. Sooooooooooooooo stupid when you know they aren't snapping the ball

 

[rockaction]

I'm just reporting on what Collinsworth said about considering Watson for offensive ROTY, by the way.

 

[rockaction]

That looks like a clean recovery to me.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Whoopsie!

 

[sho nuff]

Ugh. Such a good looking clock killing drive and a rare Jones fumble in a great play.

Also highlighted how slow Tonyan is.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

That was clean. Watched the replay 4x this time.

 

[travdogg]

Don't think that stands.

ROY in my opinion:

1. Wilson
2. Olave
3. Walker
4. Allgeier

He says a lot of dumb things

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

and a rare Jones fumble in a great play.

5 this year. That would have tied for the NFL lead with Gibson last year IIRC

 

[belljr]

Lol at collingsworth thinking a the big lineman was trying to touch the ball with a foot out of bounds and the big Detroit defense recognizing they so prevented it

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

and a rare Jones fumble in a great play.

Just checked - it’s tied for the lead this year.

 

[efactor]

Lol at collingsworth thinking a the big lineman was trying to touch the ball with a foot out of bounds and the big Detroit defense recognizing they so prevented it

Actually looked like exactly that.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Raymond takes some horrific hits. That last one looked like it hurt. A lot.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Don't think that stands.

1. Wilson
2. Olave
3. Walker
4. Allgeier

Ah yea, they’re another thing, only one of those guys lead his team to a playoff appearance this season. Thanks

 

[sho nuff]

Rare career wise. I think this year doubles his overall fumbles

 

[travdogg]

No idea why you don't spike it there.

 

[rockaction]

Gotta question the lack of the timeout there. Tirico is right for once.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Hey look - throw it to swift and good things happen.

 

[rockaction]

Ah yea, they’re another thing, only one of those guys lead his team to a playoff appearance this season. Thanks

Who?

 

[rockaction]

Money Badger out to miss another?
