    Comments on yesterday:
    • Jay Gruden got taken to the woodshed by the Colts DC. He couldn't adjust all game to simple things that the Colts were running like stunts and soft zone. The Colts took advantage in the first half when Scherff went down and were abusing our backup and Lauvao.
    • I'd like to think I've been patient with Doctson. Yeah, the catch was somewhat difficult for him to make in the endzone, but it's something that I would have liked to seen him come down with. He just isn't consistent and can go missing during stretches of games. Get Dez on speed dial. Yeah, Josh Gordon is tempting but there's too much baggage.
    • Here we are in Year 4 with Dustin Hopkins and we bring in no competition for him. He had one solid year in 2015 and has been garbage ever since. Something must still be wrong with Dan Bailey for him to be out there. I would bring him in for a workout ASAP.
    • Manusky thinks because we retooled the defensive line that we can get away with bringing 4 man rushes every passing down. Our defensive ends are getting exposed for what they are. Ryan Kerrigan once again went missing after not showing up once on film vs Arizona. The excuse was that we were dropping everyone in coverage since we were up by a lot. I've been saying it for years now -- if you play fundamentally sound against him, you'll pitch a shutout. He has no variety of pass rush moves. Andre Smith and Joe Haeg aren't giving up any pressure. We have to rely on our interior rush to get the QB off his spot. Preston Smith hasn't been much better. I really wish we stopped neglecting the position. Arden Key hasn't had a s ack yet, but he has been pressuring the QB with 3 QB hits. Ryan Kerrigan didn't even show up in the stat sheet vs Arizona and has 1 tackle yesterday with 0 pressures.

    I'll be in Brazil for most of October. We were playing with house money yesterday and read into too much of our own hype. Yeah, Arizona is bad, but it's a tough place to play and I bet most had Arizona winning. Now we blew our money with a game we should have won. I can only hope this team can take advantage of a hobbled Aaron Rodgers at home and come away with a win. 2-1 after 3 games is what I saw if I were being optimistic. Realistically, I saw 1-2.

    He got some pressure, but didn't have much of a chance in passing situations in the second half after the Rams took over.

    This is just insulting my intelligence. Not only is he not good, but the only thing he was known for coming out of college is going deep. We threw it deep like 3 times yesterday and once in Arizona. What we are missing right now is a reliable option outside of the hashes.

    I haven't seen the game, but not surprised Kirk has 2 fumbles. He's a habitual fumbler in the pocket. Always had poor ball security. @Emperor Adriano

    Pretty concerning for the Pats how weak they were against the run tonight. And they need Edelman and Gordon in the worst way. Patricia focused on taking Gronk away and dared Hogan and company to win individual matchups and they couldn't do it.

    What a Kirk Cousins fan would do when he was playing for the Redskins with yesterday's Bills-Vikings games:
    • It was the o-line's fault.
    • He was 40/55, so that's 72% percent. He passed from almost 300 yards!
    And the sad thing is those trash time numbers will get absorbed in the season total and make it look better than it should.

    @Emperor Adriano I wanted your thoughts on the Lions game. Unfortunate you couldn't see it. Was wondering if you could pour some cold water on my hype because I wanna believe that was the real Detroit Lions team out there.

    He couldn't throw the ball over ten yards . Was scary. Just compltely taken out. Giff hinted towards the line being the cause which has some merit but Kirk was absolutely god awful. Wasn't even accurate on the check downs.
