Great game!! Was a little nervous when we got that massive lead and Bengals kept chipping away with 22 unanswered, but that scoop and score by Campbell totally turned the game back in our favor. Huge win!!

BOLT UP!!

So true. Our “star” players on O really really need to be closer to 100% Star, Eke nearly gave the game away single handed.

I’m giving Eke a ton of room to breathe here and I am sending zero fucks his way. Chargers would be nowhere without Eke.

I watched Denver’s RB Williams from the 2nd round. We need bruiser like that to compliment Ek.

… Today’s game was two mentally challenged kids fighting each other and trying to lose. ….

What did you say? You want to fix this mess here? I can see where you get the name Ugly … we all can see.

How bout that tackle by Herbert? He left no doubt

Herbert delivered a hit that a Pro Bowl linebacker would be proud of.

Aside from Awuzie moving Palmer's left arm away from his right arm, before the ball arrived, there was really no contact at all. :wtf:

There isn't a receiver on the planet who would have made that catch with Awuzie's minor contact.


On a scale of difficulty, Palmer's would have been a 10, while Guyton's body catch was a 3 or 4.

Like I said, hell is going to freeze over before chaincrusher admits that he was wrong.

Thank you, Canadians !
The play of the game is when C. Covington made the ball lose and T. Campbell brought it back for the TD.
Covi is from Vancouver and the other is from Toronto.

You can watch a hundred games by the top 10 RB’s every season and rarely see a performance like Williams breaking tackles on every play and literally dragging tacklers behind him.

Sure it would be great to get a RB like him, but he is a very, very rare individual.

Im reminded of our 1st round wastes of BIP Mathews and Gordon.

I would spend the top draft picks on OL who can dominate the LOS and make holes for ALL your RB’s before I invest another 1 or 2 on a RB.

With his left, Awuzie hooked the left hand of Palmer and moved it leftward, before the ball arrived.
It was more than contact.

The board awaits an effusive apology from Chaincrusher

Yep...hadn't seen this angle, Powder...yes, Awuzie's arm clearly hooks Palmer's left arm to disrupt the catch:

I was a little concerned that our QB had to play safety. He's definitely not brittle.

[RobH]

BTW, on the Palmer drop/interception, the db interfered with Palmer's left arm just before the ball arrived.

Pretty clear on the game highlights.

Yes. Absolutely. Once his left arm was pushed back like that, he was essentially trying to catch with one hand. It’s easy to see in slo mo. If a challenge had been possible, they would have won it easily.
