CeeDee Lamb was fined $20k for having his jersey untucked last week. Aaron Rodgers was fined $14k for ignoring COVID protocols all season. I get the enforcement rules are different, but it just looks bad and doesn't add up.

So how do we reconcile this: he wouldn’t be granted a catch until he survives the ground. So why is he ruled down once his knee hits (ball short of the goaline) before the he completes that act? Loophole @ProFootballTalk

This is why the run game is so important. When you have a big lead, you can lean on it. After going up 27-0, the Chargers called 25 pass plays and just 8 run plays.

At this point, the precedent is that MVP goes to the QB with the best stats on the best team. And I get that, Tom Brady has a better MVP case than Josh Allen. But watching that Bills-Bucs game yesterday, you could tell Allen was the best QB on the field.

The laziest take going is to pile on Josh Allen for turnovers. Or to plaster the 0-6 OT record and attribute it to him. He was the best player on the field in the entire league yesterday. Also I checked the rule book: someone else on the Bills is allowed to make a play

Coaches I've worked with...Josh McDaniels, Jon Gruden, Bill Belichick...17 or 18 seconds was the line of demarcation for being able to get a play down the middle and still spike the ball. Cowboys doing it with 14 seconds shows they don't know the mechanics of that play.

The @Commanders got the best pure free safety in the nfl draft in Percy Butler. Dude has tremendous range in center field. He is very good in all areas of coverage. Let alone he has 3 rockets up his butt and can fly. He is not all coverage he is a very good tackler too.

Chris Ballard got two first rounders in the 2nd Round. Ballard is as good as it gets.
