Disagree 1 million percent.. that’s a ball he needs to go up and get
As we all know announcers aren't perfect, but for what it's worth, this was the exchange on TV after the play:

Arch, maybe try to high point that if you're Harrison there? Couldn't seem to get his arms up.

Well, the ball wasn't......he couldn't high point it because it wasn't high enough.

I think I'd agree there. That wasn't really a ball you could go up and get. Want to blame MHJ for a bad route, OK. Otherwise, seems like the throw was not where it needed to be to keep the defender from getting his arm in position to break it up.

And the play later where the ball was there and it went right through his hands. That's all on Marv.

It's like they just can't quite synch up and either there is a little mistake by one or the other, and sometimes both. Hopefully they figure it out.

I just am going to have to disagree. Nabers makes that catch along w every top 10 WR. This is what Marv struggled w last year too. He simply isn’t aggressive

I guarantee these dumb@$$es are saying to themselves.. “patriot way” boring is winning. So clueless to my faith in JG is going away after not having the balls to step on the throat the last 2 games. After seeing Petzing bring out the same lame duck offense

I miss the days of exciting losses.
I’m sure we will have a few.

Yeah I disagree, Marv saw the ball when the DB didn't and he should have caught it over him. That should be a routine TD with the WR showing any aggression for the ball.

I heard that petzing is avoiding eye contact with rallis in team meetings after the offense was asked to step up this week

The starting five on the o-line will play their third consecutive game together game this Sunday.

I hope now that these guys have played together a few weeks, we'll see a little improvement in their performance. H(c)oping!

only thing that's changed is our o-line coach

if we get bullied by frisco he needs to go

I'm not sure the Eagles are actually good.

They beat the Cowboys in a close game, and the Boys needed OT to beat the Giants. And the Chiefs looks pretty bad TBH.

Rams are a whole different story.
Division games so it doesnt matter. Division games will always be close because the teams are so familar with each other.

Cards tend to up their game against the Niners, especially on the road. We've done pretty well against them in recent seasons, better than against the rest of the division anyway.

We beat them twice last year, and we have a better team and they have a worse team. So of course, we probably get beat by Mac Jones.

Their defense is better equipped than last year.

How? Their internal iDL is meh, they lost Greenlaw, Ward and Hufanga and they have 3rd and 5th round rookies starting in the backfield.
Saleh as their DC >>>>>> their DC last year.

Cant speak on Ward, but it doesn’t seem like they’re missing Greenlaw & Hufanga. Their rookie ILB(Winters) has been doing solid & Hufanga was always overrated.

Just because their Day 2 rookies doesn’t mean they’re playing bad.
