2025 NFL Week 2

RB Dylan Laube 15 yard catch!! And another catch!

See #81 WR Alex Bachman on Special Teams; he's not even listed on Raiders.com Depth Chart. Had to look em up on YAhoo
Hoping Rookie #18 WR Jack Bech gets an opportunity?
Is TE Brock Bowers 100% healthy tonight?

Justin Hebert 60 yard TD pass is an Elite QB....Really elevating his game early in the season

Ladd McConkey 3 - 30...time for a long play to him

I just noticed that Chompin' Pete isn't chompin' tonight. First time I've seen him not furiously chompin' about ten pieces of gum.

Hahaha, maybe he has dentures now?

Was a bit busy last night so only caught the last 5 mins of the Bucs game. Baker has the clutch gene or the “It Factor” that’s hard to quantify in sports. He’s a greater quarterback than his physical attribute sum of parts.
 
I typed in “Riley Moss PFF”.
He’s now ranked 52nd among 140 corners.

Cooper Dejean is 23rd

Last year Riley was higher until that Bengal game ate him up a bit.
Cooper was in the top ten or twenty, I believe
 
Hard to believe DeJean is that low. The eye test says he is elite already.

I don't trust PFF at all. Owned by the notorious Caste acolyte Cris Collinsworth and its rankings are subjective by definition. There's no objective way to "rank" players other than by statistics and that can sometimes be misleading. PFF's monopoly status also makes it suspicious as it's easier that way to slyly push an agenda, or to put out "rankings" that align with a given narrative.

Speaking of idiotic plays, this one by Steelers rookie RB Kaleb Johnson ranks up there. Lets a kickoff hit him and then instead of chasing the ball he stands there for a moment and then starts heading for the sideline while the Seahawks pounce on it in the endzone for a TD.

Johnson is a third round draft choice out of Iowa, taken to replace Najeh Harris, who was a reliable and durable workhorse for four seasons but also a plodding one with no special traits. Johnson looked bad in training camp and instead of replacing Harris he began the new season as third string behind even Kenneth Gainwell. He may still work out, but plays like this also show the general lack of preparedness and discipline that all Mike Tomlin teams do, but in this case the stupidity level was beyond coachable. Johnson also fumbled a kickoff last week against the Jets. Maybe find a new kick returner Mikey?

Something like this happened in a Patriots-Chargers game (a playoff game I think) several years ago. The Patriots were fourth and long late in the game and a pass went right to a Chargers DB. All he had to do was knock the pass down and the ball would be turned over. Instead, he intercepted it and fumbled when tackled giving the Patriots a new set of downs.

Stupid.

This was low intelligence on a play that required more than just instinct.

I’m with you. They all server an agenda and even when the White athletes test well within the agenda they are just ignored. It’s the same with RAS which is actually a better metric but again it’s ignored or goes uncited when a White athlete rises to the top.
 
Here's one of the most remarkable stats I've ever seen concerning the NFL -- the Colts have yet to punt through two games!

That's a tribute to Daniel Jones, written off and reviled for most of his career. Many White QBs have "failed" because they've been on bad organizations that had no idea how to develop them or surround them with sufficient talent. The Colts have a snow plow o-line, some really good receivers including the still way underused Alec Pierce, and a very good running back.

Very happy for Daniel Jones joining the growing list of White QBs who have realized their "upside" by going to a competent organization. The only black one I can think of is Geno Smith, and he's average (and was terrible last night).
