In NFL history, the score 25-22 has only happened 11 times. Two of those times were today.

Mike Williams limps off, looks pretty hurt. Two plays later he catches a 40 yard TD. Completely alone in the secondary.

Just like Zeke limping off after writhing on the ground. Two plays later he's taunting into the end zone.

Injuries are really difficult to judge.

Man Cleveland just got FUUUUUUUCKED on a Flacco.

Wow. That is an epically bad call. It was literally offensive PI. And it was on 4th and 4 on the LAC 41.

Brutal. Unacceptable. That cannot happen. It just cannot happen.

Lol. Another penalty called on the Browns on 4th down. It was not a penalty.

But at least this one was caught legally and legitimately.

The refs are in the tank hard for LAC this game. I count a total of 4 bailout calls on 3rd or 4th down this game by the refs. That 5th one didn't matter.

Incredibly dumb by the chargers. I’m now rooting hard for the browns to pull out the W.

The Browns just used 50 seconds to run three check downs with no time outs.

Just insanely bad play calling and decision making.

Another check down for the Browns in the middle of the field. Another 14 seconds wasted for yards that aren't going to get it done.

Browns playcalling when they can't run is just so bad.
4 checkdowns, then 4 bombs into triple coverage

As Mike Lombardi said lance is a year away from being a year away. Wonder what Shanahan is thinking watching Mac Jones. Fields and Wilson were both attracious. Patriots got a gift at 15.

I think Shanahan is perfectly happy with his choice. He chose for long-term upside not who he thought would be better week 5 of this year. Mac had been pretty decent for a rookie, he hasn't done much that is going to make Shanahan re-think the decision on long-term upside.

Edit- particularly since he has Jimmy G this year, who when healthy was better than Mac. He got exactly what he wanted, the high upside guy, with a solid vet to play in front of him this year.

Chiefs are fun, don't even want them to win but it is undeniable that they are fun

Diggs started to showboat until he realized there was a defender right behind him. He blew an easy TD.

Edit: and BUF had to settle for a FG.

Maybe, I just rewound and watched a few times, he had to almost stop to make the catch so Sorenson probably gets him either way

lol COllinsworth, he can't break into a route, he tries to turn his shoulder and White is holding him.
I'm fine with OPI for the first contact, but the White just grabbed and wrestled with him to make sure he couldn't then run a route.
