Column delayed due to the most critical example of terminal man flu in human history.
------------
1 – Finishing is a skill. It is not luck or coincidence. Sure, they have lost five with a combined of nothing-points, but they are still a bad team. Competitive, but bad.
2 - Micah Parsons was double-teamed on 20 out of 32 pass rush snaps. Can anyone explain to me why he was not double-teamed on 32 out of 32?
3 – I would understand the dynamic if Ossenfort wants to buy someone before the trade deadline in a bit of a desperate attempt to save his job. I would not like it, but I get it. I just hope that it would only include swapping draft picks and not giving up any.
4 – Big surprise to me that this was Tre McBride’s first two-touchdown game.
5 – Dalvin Tomlinson is so good.
6 – Hard to bench Brissett after these two games.
7 – It's a problem that none of the runningbacks can pass protect. It clearly limits the offensive options.
8 – Michael Wilson would be a very good #3 WR.
9 – I liked that Gannon got aggressive on the fourth down, late in the game, even though they didn’t get it. I was sure he would punt it away.
10 - Because of Brissett, I was looking at the Jets as a (very unlikely, but still) possibility to buy Murray now. Aaron Glenn knows him well personally. Darren Mougey (their GM) comes from the Broncos where he was the assistant general manager when they bought both Russell Wilsom and Sean Payton. And Woody Johnson is one of those risk-seeking owners that are willing to throw big money after players that can attract their fans.
Because of their current miserable state, I thought there was an actual chance that they would do something crazy like buying Murray in-season. But no, he will not play again until after the trade deadline, and no one is trading for a possibly injured player.
