The oline played outstanding today.

Yeah they did. And here's the thing, in a weather game like today that is huge because scoring is never high in a gam like that. Both teams put up 39 and 59 points respectively, so 9-3 isn't because of Offensive ineptitude. just one of those types of games.

Is this thing STILL on?

fucks sake... I am no Wentz apologist, but playing with a wet football in rainy, sloppy conditions, I am guessing no QB was going to look very sharp in that situation. Let temper our expectations a bit, there were a couple more instances yesterday that looked like a disconnect with the receiver, hard to say who fucked up on those, or if it was simply a matter of disrupted timing due to the bad footing in parts of the field. I noticed as the game went along, RBs and Receivers were making more straight runs and rounding off their routes quite often instead of the sharp breaks.

we won a game we have lost so many times in the past.

Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

He doesn't look like he has a foot problem to me? I can't wait to see him and "Big Orange" in a couple of years playing. They're in the same category as Turner. Eventually their talent will explode all of the field.

Again the bears put up 50+ last week. And also couldn't do anything in this game. Maybe weather had something to do with it?

Bills got an absolute steal in Walker. Played his last season with a cracked vertebrae which really limited him. Should have been a mid to high day 2 pick.

Talking dirty!

My boy was astounded how big he was. He got washed on occasion, but when he won, it was something to behold. Just manhandling those big o-linemen.

Walker's story is very similar to Banks. Both about 6-6, 330, long arms, both struggle with pad level, and both had poor final seasons in college due to an injury. But at the end of the day there just aren't many humans on the planet who are built like that. Banks is going to be good.

Kudos to LDR. We draft a couple guys who are his ostensible replacements and he won't give up the job. He's played two very good games now. And beauty of it is that Orange and Banks are looking good too.

Javon who? Jonathan who?
