yeah any time you're the underdog and you're across the 50 you should be going for it on 4th. If your GM is gonna fire you for that he's a bad GM and you're not gonna win there anyway.

Malcolm Jenkins in man on Beasley isn’t what you are looking for

EDIT - Not many receivers can make Lattimore look like that, but Diggs is one of them.

What was the point of giving Hill all that money then not use him in situations like this.

Tom Brady and Stefon Diggs would have made swéet sweet music together.
I'd say that not landing Manny Sanders was a great what-if of the mid-teens years except they ended up winning three SBs before the decade was out anyway. But yeah, any plus route runner with Brady is a cheat code.

Actually Buffalo is likely to have Division tiebreaker in a tiebreak scenario, so they are probably slight favorites.

Is there a more low percentage play than trying to draw a team offside on 4th? Has to be lower than the new onside kicks.

Hill's new deal changes value the more plays he has as a quarterback, right?

He has a ton of annual rate/total incentives (QB rating, passing TD, passing yards, for ex) that have a 224 pass minimum. It’s likely to be a lot of funny money he doesn’t see when all is said and done, I think. If he becomes an average starting QB, he will get some of the incentive money, but - and this is my view - if he doesn’t then the deal isn’t anything special.

His knee buckled and he walked off in apparent emotional distress.

Who knows until the MRI comes, but it didn’t look good.
Yes, he walked off, but Brady did the same with his season-ending knee injury. Who knows at this point.
