NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Minus receiver. You guys taking hits there

Mecole Hardman isn't that big a loss imo. Juju is. But it does give Toney a chance to see what he can do. He looked pretty good last week in his first game in Chiefs colors...

I don’t know. Commanders didn’t let Heinecke do much and he still had two turnovers. Ryan is a vet and the Game Plan vs the Eagles fits what he can do well. Short controlled passing game and a heavy dose of feeding Taylor 30-35 times.

The Colts O line is terrible.

Unless Saturday has made drastic improvements there in short time, Philly will be fine today.

They had a bad game against Washington. Colts will absolutely try to use the same game plan, but I don’t think they will be able to pull it off.

 

[tlance]

I don't think he is but whatever.

Ryan has been dogshit most of the season.

Ryan is better than Heinicke in a vacuum.

Colts can’t pass protect, so Heinicke has looked better than Ryan.

It is interesting.

I saw a break down of Toney’s skills on a fantasy site somewhere trying to determine if he is the next breakout WR.

Conclusion was that he can’t get open on his own.

He is very fast and shifty with the ball, so if the Cheifs can scheme him the ball in space he can run with it after the catch.

But he is more of a gadget weapon than a reliable receiving threat.

Expect Watson and MVS to get more snaps than Toney today. Toney might get more touches because they will design a few screens for him when he is in.

Not happening

Not sure why they would need to. #5 Tennessee just got blown out, Michigan and tOSU still play each other and LSU and Georgia will be playing each other in the SECCG.

 

[trojanfan12]

Yea I don't see how you can sell that.

Not like it matters. It's pretty clear cut that Georgia, OSU/UM, TCU, and USC are in the playoffs If they win out.

It just gets interesting if LSU beats Georgia or TCU or USC loses. Then the debating begins.

If USC loses either of their next 2 games, they're out.

tOSU/UM will open a spot for someone.

If LSU beats Georgia, they'll fill that spot and it will come down to how far the committee drops Georgia.

My guess is, they won't drop a 1 loss, defending National Champion out of the top 4.

If TCU loses 1 and USC wins out...then it will get really interesting.

Speculation the loser of OSU vs Michigan could still get in.

Fair. I think the Commanders OL is just as bad though.

 

[bksballer89]

Huh. Looking like Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are gonna play tonight for the Chargers...

I know you are scared

 

[fightinfunbags]

I’m actually rooting for the Cowboys vs the Vikings today and it makes me feel dirty.

Don't think the loser of Michigan/ ohio state is out

Could be all you said, coach. Though I have faith in Andy Reid's ability to utilize players. We'll see what he cooks up...

Terrified...

You should see me shaking over here...

Wouldn't take much really.

As much as you (and most of America) despises everything Cowboys this comes as a bit of a shock...

 

[Stakesarehigh]

I mean If they were still very clearly considering the Vols despite them getting dominated by Georgia the only thing I could see totally eliminating osu or Mich is them getting crushed

Vikings schedule really lightens up late because their division is garbage. If they don’t lose today, I don’t see where they can take another loss. Eagles need home field to accomplish their goals. They’re technically tied now but Eagles won head to head in week 2

Maybe so, but they weren’t bad Monday night

Trust me. I get playoff implications as much as the next cat...

It's why I rooted for the Dolphins to beat the Bills a few weeks back...
