Game Thread: The Bye Week Watch Everyone Else GDT

[ChrisPozz]

1st rushing TD by Chris Johnson in his last 146 attempts.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Pozz' guy (I think) Kyle Rudolph with a great catch & broken tackle for a TD.

Nope. Wasn't a fan. Maybe Bingo?

 

[ChrisPozz]

Geno almost sacked, which would've taken them outside FG position, but he somehow escaped two guys and then picked up a few yards to make it a 48-yard FG try - Folk makes it. I'm shocked because Folk has YET to miss a FG this year (22/22).

Probably. But Bingo likes everyone. He's really Jon Gruden in reality.



Only kidding Bingo.


...Oh! I think it was Clyde who really liked Kyle Rudolph; but he has a soft spot for people named Kyle.

At $53.58M, the Kansas City #Chiefs have the most expensive defense on the field this week.

Ha. I'm usually the one who gets accused of having a wide base of favorites on here.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Something to watch out for this upcoming week is the health of the Panthers guards - they are really, really hurting there.

 

[ChrisPozz]

There was more Chris Owusu talk/rage last year on here. Update on him: He's inactive again and Skye Dawson, Eric Page and Russell Shepard all have moved ahead of him.

RGIII stupidly did a flip & landed on his back / head (a little) to pick up a first down. That guy is not long for this league.

I'm still rooting for him though; the Redskins help the Niners in strength of schedule VS the Seahawks.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Come on, Jets! This would be a really nice loss for them if they don't get their act together. Go Geno!

People used to love that type of grit, toughness and complete disregard for their own safety. It isn't in that kid's nature to lay down, I respect that a great deal.

On a side note, Sean Smith is putting on a clinic today.

 

[Dodub]

Roughing the passer????? Chiefs just got called by roughing the passer, the QB had his leg in the air, the defender tried to miss him and accidentally bumped the QB's leg and he fell down. It looked like a flop on a punt.

 

[ChrisPozz]

About 4 minutes left in the DAL/MIN game and Dallas has only run the ball 7 times (4 for Murray, 1 for Randle, 2 for Dunbar). Murray has for 4 for 31 with a long of 27. Dez Bryant only has 4 rec for 26 yards, too. This is one of the better, more efficient games I've seen Ponder play.

 

[Dodub]

Cooper has been excellent after giving up that TD.

Robert Woods hurt

 

[ChrisPozz]

Nate Chandler is playing RG for the Panthers. He moved from DT to RG in May. He's all they have left at RG without shuffling any other starter around.

 

[Dodub]

CJ Spiller's speed continues to give the Chiefs trouble. The guy is exploding every time he gets the ball.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Romo picked up a 3rd and 6 (8-9 yards) with his legs inside the MIN 30.

Oh don't get me wrong; I respect RGIII a ton. He seems like a great guy & a man I'd want to follow into NFL-"battle" if I were a player; but it was still a really dumb, short-sided move to do a flip for a first down in a regular-season game when he's 3-5. He can be gutsy and have a short, injury-riddled career, or he can be a lot less gutsy & have a longer & better one.

The way the Chiefs defense are playing today, I don't think they have a chance next game. Honestly they need their defense to play lights out in order to have a shot and these guys having been horrible the past two weeks.
