Maybe losing to Miami week one was a blessing in disguise. Helps to prevent them from getting the #1 pick

Lol. They deserved to lose that game. Flores with an awful call on fourth and 1.

I heard once Tua gets back that Miami is going to be wicked good again.

Great call on playing for the FG rather than heaving it downfield. It’s the Jags, you don’t play for overtime because you will lose in overtime.

If the Dolphins defender doesn't touch the Jax receiver on the fourth-down reception, does the clock run out there?

No, they’d rule that he gave himself up a la a kneel so the play would be over. It might’ve taken a review to confirm that the clock didn’t run out, though.

Are you guys just rubbing it in or do you actually not know that Miami traded their pick to the Eagles and kept SF’s in that deal last draft?

I didn’t know that. Thought the Seattle draft situation was the worst one going (potentially).

First play of the game, Nate Solder gives up the sack and Joe Judge benches him. Has anyone fallen off more than Solder?

It's more of a commentary on the amount of shovel passes-pitter patter passes to the WR in motion they run near the goal line.
The shovel passes work.

People joke about Rodgers and Mahomes, I don't know, padding their stats? But it works. How is that padding?

Brady had like 15 1 yard TD passes to Mike Evans last year. Is that stat padding or good execution, using your best players?

Brady's teams also have by far and away the most 5 yard or less TD runs in the league for the past 15 years. In the case of Rodgers it's stat padding, they have Aaron Jones. In the case of Mahomes it's not stat padding, but he ends the season with 42 TDs or something and everyone freaks out when a good portion of them are shovel passes from the 1 on first down. It's part of the reason why his PFF grades have been substantially lower than the stats would indicate for 2 seasons now.

Scoring touchdowns using your best players isn't stat padding if it works.
