Still can’t believe Hunter Renfrow is done. Another team he’d add value to, but looks like he’s toast.
I’d have to imagine there’s a good chance Hunter Renfrow hasn’t signed anywhere by choice… or he’s never recovered from injury. If he was at least half the player he used to be still, the saints would’ve signed him yesterday

Nix with a 23 yard pass to Krull who made a nice catch and then runs for 33 before handing it off for the rushing TD.

Nix with a long run setting up the TD on the next play. Saints look awful.

Saints took a step back after Taysom got hurt and are now completely anemic without Carr. Funny to think they had the top offense the first 2-3 weeks.

LOL great ending to the game. Rattler Pick 6 - Barton is the one who grabbed the ball out of the air and returned it. He has been everywhere tonight. Great game by Barton!

edit: Looks like they call it fumble.

Haener comes in and shocks the world by making decisive throws, hitting the his WRs in stride, and throwing for the TD.

Hopefully he gets the start next week.
It’s all draft capital with Rattler as they invested a 5th in him this year and want to see what they have. Unless it was purely because it was vs backups, Haener was better in his one drive than Rattler was in any of his drives.

Anyone seen the stats for moss? Curios how many catches/yards he gave up, if any.

Haener was picked in the 4th round in 2023. Haener was also better in college than Rattler. If anyone looks back at Rattler's career he is just an entitled, typical mulatto.

Rattler is still riding his high school recruiting rank (5 stars, 9th overall prospect). The eternal upside as many here say. If I remember correctly, he was decent as a freshman, got benched for Caleb Williams the next season, transferred, and has been mediocre since.

If he was a random 3 star, based on his career in South Carolina, he probably goes undrafted.

props where props are due, I thought Williams ran the ball extremely well for Denver, ran hard and hit the holes quickly. Nix when he calms down is going to be a game-changer. Haener should start over Rattler anytime anywhere....Barton was a machine in this game...

Barton's performance last night was right up there with Troy Anderson's earlier this year. He was all over the field making plays. Glad he is getting a chance in Denver.

The Denver Broncos are the best team to watch from the defensive side of the ball. Barton played like a man possessed! So explosive
and he was everywhere. That man alone gave the Saints OLine nightmares. Then add in the other white defenders and it makes you smile.

On the Offensive Side of the ball it's still the Niners when they get everyone back! Hopefully in the 2nd half of the season!

Cooper Kupp and TJ Hockenson are both officially listed as questionable for Week 7. Looks like even if Kupp misses one more game he should be good to go Week 8.

It's almost certain that Russell Wilson will start for the Steelers against the Jets Sunday night. That and Davante Adams debuting for the Jets has created a lot of interest in the game. Will be interesting to see if Wilson has anything left after Justin Fields left a lot to be desired in his six starts even though Pitt won four of them, mainly by their defense keeping scores low and close against a weak schedule that becomes much more difficult the second half of the season. Even the DWFs in Pittsburgh are realizing Fields is a poor passer whose legs are his one positive trait. Meanwhile I noticed several articles today naming Adam Thielen as a possible trade target for the Steelers.

For CFers the KC-SF and Detroit-Minnesota matchups are basically win-win with all four teams being very good and among the most relatively White friendly. I'm also looking forward to the Baltimore-Tampa game, hoping Baker Mayfield can continue his magic and pull off the win.

And yet by the same logic, white men who dominate in college should likewise be given a long leash and time to live up to their upside.

Think Max Borghi… prototypical third-down back style in college and yet barely a whiff in the NFL.

We could rattle off names for hours of whites who were dominant and yet not given a chance while a guy like Rattler never was dominant and riding on his inflated high school ranking.

This could be entertaining. I do hope the Jets offense puts pressure on the Steelers. As you mentioned the Steelers defense has done a great job at keeping opponents out of the end zone. Fields is essentially a "game manager" but we know how that label is never espoused on magical "upsiders". Wilson looked every bit of 35 last year as his legs are pretty much gone. It's interesting how his fellow 2012 draft class member Kirk Cousins is able to continue to play at such a high level where Wilson has been declining since his last 2 years in Seattle. Anyways I hope Rodgers lights up the Steelers.

Drake Maye was 6-7 for 62 yards and threw a TD pass to open the game. Hunter Henry had 2 catches for 23 yards.

I wonder if any so-called "reporter" has ever asked Mayo (or The Genius before him) why Brendan Schooler, one of the fastest players in the league, is restricted solely to special teams and never gets any snaps at safety (or cornerback as he could obviously be one). 6'2" 210 pounds with great speed = White Special Teams Demon only in the NFL when the athlete is White. I know the answer of course, just putting it out there on the record for lurkers and anyone else who wants to understand how the Caste System operates.

When the Jaguar player returned a punt for a touchdown in the first half, guess who got the perp shot even though he was the first Patriot down the field and had nothing to do with the openings that led to the TD? Par for the course.
