Dan Orlovski has to be the worst football anal.yst on TV. Harrison's head was smashed on that penalty call and yet he saw nothing wrong there? That's the type of hit NFL fines you for. It was a pure helmet on helmet hit. No shoulder pads involved.

Lol @LAC. That's what happens when you don't have a credible offense. Shitty teams can beat you even if you are strangling them with your defense.

I didn't either and I fully oppose that rule with all of my being. What kind of bullshit rule is that? If you need 3 onside kicks to make a miraculous comeback, why the hell shouldn't you be allowed to attempt the 3rd one? Holy cow the rules committee on the NFL makes some mind-boggling retarded choices.

Hey all here is the rule book regarding Onside Kicks. There is no limit if you’re trailing in the 4th quarter.

That's Google with their botched AI search results. Hard to believe what a disaster their search engine has become.

Thank goodness. That was really irritating believing that rule existed.

Two great outcomes tonight. San Diego lost. The Suckaneers will be facing the Chiefs in two weeks without Godwin and Evans.

According to some stats nerd, they had less than a 1% chance of winning the game at that point, and Evans had already popped his hammy. And we've seen teams basically wave the white flag in far less difficult situations, right?


Also says something when Troy/Buck are both wondering out loud just what Bowles thought he was doing. Or the fact that Harbaugh and even Lamar and Derrick were looking at the TB sideline with obvious "wtf are they doing" looks on their faces.


When I was a kid I learned a phrase: "don't go chasing rainbows." Bowles needed to assess the situation, the fact that his defense was gassed, the fact that recovering yet a third onsides kick was mathematically pretty close to zero, that he had no TOs and less than 1:30 left and was down two scores.

And just a couple years ago, McVay did exactly the same thing and got Kupp injured for the season, and even he said afterwards that he made a critical mistake keeping Kupp/Stafford and the other skill players in what was a lost game. According to McVay that decision cost him the rest of the 2021 season.

It was a dumb decision by Bowles, especially so because it was a non-Conference game, with a Divisional game vs. ATL coming up next week that is a must-win for TB.

If the Chiefs clinch the one seed before Week 18 do they rest starters two weeks?

With the way injuries have gone this year how can you not?
[Reply]

not really, I can't think of any teams that are pulling their starters in that situtation

Screw google. Use Duck Duck Go.
