    And to be fair, I am admittedly pretty conservative when it comes to stuff like that.

    Apparently, they are colorblind. Burgundy would just make gold/yellow stand out more :lolol:, but thanks for the lift Washington.

    It will still help to not have your punt block at some point....

    And every team will have to prepare for it which gives you other advantages maybe

    It as something they saw in the Redskins coverage that maybe doesn’t show up regularly maybe

    Oh, me too. But when he dropped that ball, I could've have cried because it was there. Luckily, it didn't cost them the game.

    This was a huge win for sure. Next week is going to be FIRE. Home game, gotta have it. We could walk away from that game 8-2 with 2 of the next 3 games against the Browns...

    The last bit is a gauntlet, but I see no reason why this team shouldn't win 11+ games. None at all. This was a game we needed if we wanted a shot at unseating the Ravens for the North title. Now we just have to beat the Ravens lol

    It all evened out when Zacchaeus muffed the ball on the other end right after. Both teams got a cheeky ST-assisted score, so it came down to everything else. Luckily we held them twice to FG's and the Commies never did. Dub.

    Risk too high for a pass that should be caught 9 times out of 10? LOL.

    IMO, where we stand in the NFL is this: Chiefs #1, Lions #2 (maybe, don`t know them well), and several teams including us after that bunched together. We could be better than or equal to Bills, Ratbirds, Texans, Wash, Eagles, but more proof is needed. Best case scenario is we get to AFC Championship game before getting knocked out. Yeah that`s very optimistic, but we have enough players to make it possible if things go our way.

    If Mahomes gets season ending injury, then anything is possible. We have just enough key players to seriously compete.

    Disagree strongly. When you take a risk you need to consider the reward. In this case the reward was that we would have retained possession still 30 yards from field goal range. Maybe a bit better if it were a really good pass.

    The risk is not worth the reward. You are gaining a 1st down vs giving up 3 at the very least. It was stupid, and almost cost us the game

    Right, and it’s a backup safety throwing to a backup corner in a high pressure situation. It’s not like a QB throwing it to a receiver.

    Exactly. It's like you said during the game. It's risk vs reward. On that play You risk a automatic 3 points for a reward of only a 1st down. It's dumb, and nobody will convince me differently. I'm a die hard Tomlin fan, but that was stupid.

    That was puzzling to say the least. Tomlin has some brass balls though.

    I don't like it. I'm old fashioned, and I see way too many games lost this way, and I'm a huge Tomlin fan, but not when He does that.
    People say I never blame Him for anything. LoL

    I liked the call. The player just bungled a play both you or I even should have made.

    Very possible a TD if completed. There was no one there.
