There are many examples of top athletes failing to do the most basic thing for the win, leading to a loss. Didn't the Chargers have an interception in some game, all the player needed to do was fall to the turf....game won. But nope, he tried to run it....and the rest is history. A factoid about that game: The dude who missed the open net has gotten over it and is willing to talk about that painful memory. The the young head coach for Providence who you may cross paths with in your job still wouldn’t talk about the game in an interview from a few years ago … Lou Lamoriello

Just started going through Popper’s Twitter feed. Did anybody notice this (no way to tell at the game)?

This one was noticeable at the game live. Easy peasy, right?

The problem with poor depth and average role players is the starters burn themselves out or get injured... Lets hope we can keep this momentum going throughout the season.

Welcome to my Freak World. Do you need evidence ? You doubt ?
Our STAR RB DOES NOT WANT TO SCORE A TD. Stops in his tracks at the 2 yard line. Want more evidence ? The defense picks him up in the air, carries him into the endzone, AND FORCES US TO GET 6 POINTS !!!
HOO. Its' a Freak's World and you get to live in it. Loving every minute of it.
Chasing fourth down records is just another Sunday for us.

The browns showed us what it means to have good depth, we don’t have that right now, it’s getting better but right now our 2nd and 3rd string players don’t belong on the field with the same type of players on teams like buffalo, cleveland, and baltimore.

IMO these were not "good" tackles, these were last line of defense tackles many yards down field. Team problem NOT a James problem. He is so athletic, he made the plays.

IDK, when I see KJ Hill lined up at WR and we still win the game...............................................dunno.

He is a great guy, smart hockey person, but no nonsense type.

When I see Guyton or Rountree get plays and fail on pivotal downs or goal line situations I cringe. But yes we are STILL winning. Cook and Parham are my favorite players not named Herbert, Ekeler, Allen, or Williams.
