Yes, it does, given the high risk involved. Pierre simply doesn't have many in-game reps catching a pass like that, which made the possibility of...
I'm drawing on years of covering football at the high school, college, and pro levels as a reporter. I've seen one Pop Warner game in my life....
Good point. Patterson has returned one punt in his NFL career. Given how productive he has been as a kickoff returner in his career, that makes me...
Agreed. I was disappointed they didn't re-sign him in the offseason.
It did not work. It relied on two players to do things they don’t normally do and one of them failed.
Wilson has only one game with one touchdown pass in three starts, the victory against the Giants. He threw two against the Jets and three against...
Pointing out that he isn’t playing as well as expected isn’t the same thing as wanting him gone. He isn’t getting any interceptions. He has been...
Agreed. I think I mentioned on the game day thread that he looked like he was running in mud on one return against the Commanders.
Fields wasn’t that bad. Jefferson just hasn’t been good. Jefferson is in his fifth year in the NFL. He is what he is, so it is silly that you...
That is why I wrote “some.” Their pass defense is bad, but perhaps not quite as bad as the numbers.
Tomlin said he thought Highsmith was the only player hurt against Washington who would miss the Baltimore game, but said they would have to...
That does sound like a punt return option if Austin can't go. Patterson was a dynamic kickoff returner for much of his career, but he has only...
True. Some of it is Burrow and Chase having two great games against them. They have faced some tough passing offenses.
That is a good analysis of it, but I have to agree with Glenn. I didn't like it in that situation. It isn't just that they wee deep in their own...
You are asking a strong safety to throw to a cornerback. Those are two variables that were likely to lead to failure, which is exactly what happened.
That was smart, but otherwise, he was useless. A receiver in the current NFL has to be a special kind of bad to only catch 14 passes for 139 yards...
They have an excellent run defense. It's not just teams not bothering with the run because the pass is open. They are giving up only 3.4 yards per...
I believe he was on the other side and they didn't leave him uncovered. I imagine that Pierre was uncovered because he isn't a receiver. It's a...
The Steelers will probably need a huge passing game. The Ravens have an excellent run defense, giving up a league-best 3.4 yards per carry. Harris...
I assume we will see plenty of both Smith and Herbig, but that is a good reason to play Smith most of the time. The Ravens can do a lot of damage...
