I just feel like everyone is going to spend all week talking about Mahomes' ankle or Burrow being a Demigod or Chase against this young secondary or Lou Anarumo being a psychopath...and then in the end it's just going to Samaje Perine bludgeoning Bolton and Gay to death.

The goal is to add as many points as possible. Walking away with none doesn't do that. At some point you have to weigh the odds of success and take something over nothing. [Reply]

and it's situational with the team you have at that particular time... Great offense, pourous defense, you probably want to risk getting 7's over 3's. Great defense, average offense, you play like Reid did on Sunday. [Reply]

Yup. For a team struggling to score you take any points you can get and lean on the defense. [Reply]
