Man, I’m in heaven-the more football nights the better. For those Hot Takers in the media [whispers out of side of mouth] and a few folks on this site, this doesn’t signal the inevitable early end of the season. There was always going to be an in-season Monday Night doubleheader and there will be more to come. Just as there was always going to be a tilt on Tuesday. The only question I had was, ‘how nimble will the league be when things go sideways?” So they’ve gone sideways now and an adjustment has been made. [shrugs]
More Fallout:
-The Chief Medical Officer for the league has stated that ‘a bubble isn’t a good idea right now’ because a guy has to carry water for The Shield. I’ve no doubt that ‘bubbling’ right now is logistically impossible so dude has to say that there are ‘potential behavioral outcomes’ that might manifest themselves if the players had to change their routine. File under: gobbledegook.
-I’ve read fan sites devoted to all the 0-5 teams and it’s funny that the ‘Oh well, we’ll just get Trevor Lawrence now’ crowd has manifested itself. As though it were that easy. The team that gets super-serious about it is going to gut the roster for draft picks as we’ve seen done before. Most likely candidate? I’ll go with Atlanta because they’re already 37 mil. over next year’s projected cap and there’s long term moneys tied up.
-Pump the frickin’ brakes on Dalton-sure he performed well vs. a pathetic Giant D but he’s operating behind a line that has 3 starters gone.
TO THE GAME!
Bills/Titans:
-According to PFF Buffalo has the 4th ranked O in the league and Tennessee is not far behind in 8th. Trouble is, Titans have very little at wr right now aside from A.J. Brown coming back (I’m betting) a little too early from a bone bruise on his knee. Maybe keep an eye out for Kalif Raymond-he’s the go-to wr when the Titans go to 3 tight end sets, he’s hauled in a couple of 40+ yarders when they line up that way.
-Buffalo is sitting Tre’Davious White, their shutdown cb tonight which I think is a lovely bit of strategery-the Titans wr corps being what it is, the back-to-back short weeks and the Chiefs being on offer in week 6, well that’s common sense.
-How much does Tannyhill benefit from playaction/play-faking? When he drops back and passes on those plays he leads the league in yards gained at 11.9 yards. When he doesn’t he’s dead last at 5.4.
Have a good one down below.
Oh look! We’re about to hit our highest number of coronavirus cases on a Tuesday since August 11!
But enough about Nissan Stadium
Let me guess Singletary getting no touches…again.
He’s getting touches. But he’s getting them in spots where he’s not able to succeed. Really obvious to me that McDermott is a 80’s-influenced dude that wants a power running game with suffocating D. He has no options because Moss is out so he’s throwing Devin between the tackles on early downs, which is not his strength. It’s so fucking obvious that a rigid-thinking coach is trying to fit a circle player into a square hole.
Chris Hanson wants to know more about these inappropriate touches.
Q3 Meetings all day. Am about to cut my throat with a letter opener when word comes in we managed to bonus for the quarter. That really helped make the last 2 hours of the day manageable.
They call him AJ Brown because he’s a shit version of AJ Green

My conspiracy theory is that time travel IS real and someone keeps trying to fix 2020 by changing something but every time they do, they unwittingly make it worse.
They should re-boot Quantum Leap like this
Kinda like that Stephen King novel where the dude went back and prevented JFK’s assassination and thereby fucked up everything even worse.
Yeah, I mean – LBJ was a fantastic DOMESTIC policy President, and hard to see how JFK would have avoided the Vietnam mess (given it was him that started most of the chain reaction events).
LBJ is a bully who tried to overpower (for lack of a better word) people to see his way. JFK is a charmer who tried to seduce (for lack of a better word) people to see his way. I don’t know much about the Vietnam conflict, but it wouldn’t surprise me if its not a complete cluster if JFK lived.
Read the Caro books! LBJ was indeed an asshole, but it’s a fascinatIng story of a complex man.
I hope the 5th one comes out before The End. Really more a history of the 20th century in the US than just a biography. I’ve read the first two twice….
Yes. Every few months, I remember to Google, see if we have release date. Then, I swear profusely.
Thing is, protagonist returned to the present day and King’s description of that hellscape pretty much matches what we are dealing with today.

I know that it happened while they were in Houston, but this team blew a 35-3 to the Bills in a playoff game. Even the Atlanta Falcons thought they choked.

It feels like the Titans last played a month ago.
Allen’s arm talent is right up there with mine when my wife goes away for the weekend.
The Titans have literally called a safety blitz on every play this drive, and the Bills are somehow still not picking it up.
Like untrimmed bushes, you don’t see a lot of “outie” belly buttons these days. Probably not for the same reason.

Great rundown and Kalif Raymond love. RumoUrs were that T’D White was “opting out” for this game.
If he can get a score tonight, that would make me extremely happy
