Hmmmmm.  No way.  1:29 now.

...... edit add,  goodnight Mr  Brady, your  8-9 Tampa Bay career is over.   Your useful NFL career should   also  be over.   Give it up, you've done enough time to retire for good.    

Both sides still with 2:55 left.   A tough,  brutal at times game.  I wouldn't be surprised if they just took a few knees soon.

Dallas's D was ridiculous tonight. I'll be rooting for them for the NFC and Bills for the AFC. 

Oh yes,  they made Mr Brady look like an old, quite hassled old man tonight.   And TB's season is over in about 4 minutes. 

~  AND  ~  Our 2022 NFL football season is winding down.

.FLs, pickems, all that stuff pretty much finished.    How quickly it comes and goes ..... again.

This didn't age well. 

Yeah,  DAL  31  TB  6,  TB12's night and maybe career nearing a close.  I expect Tom in a booth next year for a good salary  ..... like he needs it at all.

 ExtraPoints  EP  at  a premium tonight.   And we move on to next week.

Meanwhile TB sacked, 4 & out.   About 6 minutes left in this one.  And the Dallas QB redeems himself tonight.

Agree. T Bay would need a miracle. 

Strange how both the Bucs & Rams just fizzled out so fast after SB wins.

Not a great 3 and out start ..... Dallas can just put them away now   BUT   look what's happened recently. 

@mjp28 said:

Sideline note :   TBrady shutout in first half first time since first NE playoff game  ...... which they won

Any chance tonight  ?   (I say NO ! )

BUT are you kidding me. DALLAS  18  TB  0  and now three consecutive missed EPs.   ?????

Could this be Brady's last game?

@mjp28 said:

CIN  24   BAL (+7.0)  17  for a big  "kiss your sister tie, a big push" ...... how about that.   

Good evening everyone,   on to Monday Night Football.        

~  AND  ~  In our little TBB Pickem here this     ~? ? ~    Monday Night Football contest  it's  :

DAL  11   TB  8   and no picks 4.   So there you have it  .....   

@mjp28 said:

Well  DAL 12   TB  0.   What ?   Yes.

TB12 throws a RZ INT.   And Dallas misses TWO EPs, not one two.   Never good in a playoff game. 

..... edit how much would you bet DAL goes for -2- next ?

McCarthy's face after the 2nd miss was pretty funny! Maher is solid though and I bet he redeems himself somehow.  

@d-bone said:

Nasty D so far. 

Well  DAL 12   TB  0.   What ?   Yes.

TB12 throws a RZ INT.   And Dallas misses TWO EPs, not one two.   Never good in a playoff game.

I don't understand what Tampa Bay is doing with their staff.. the DL coach is the offense run game coordinator; the ILB coach is the offense pass game coordinator.

They also have as a full-time offense consultant Tom Moore, who's apparently 84 years young.

Anti-analytics??

I loved Infante's coaching kids to become pro's.. It's missed here Hugely

We have a 2 fold problem..

1) Watson can extend plays.. All 22 showed looks of our WR's were not aware of this.. ?

2) Joe Thomas would have fits telling Watson.. "I can block, but I don't know where your going to be back there"  

edit-- That G-men Statue of Liberty call was a perfectly timed play call. I could view perfect timing & execution in any quarter.. Danny Dimes nailed selling it.. 

#1 is heavily dependent upon the coaching.  And #2 sounds like it would be a problem if we had a LT that actually moved.  Right now I've renamed the Left Tackle position in Cleveland. Today, I call it Park Place.  All kidding aside Gumbs, those are great points.

Daboll seems to know why QBs like Daniel Jones and Josh Allen are first round draft picks.  When in charge of both those guys, he lets/let them use their strengths (which includes the running ability working in tandem with good vision and passing).  If the Browns brought DeShaun Watson here thinking they can rewire him to be a cement shoe'd Bernie Kosar beating teams/blitzes with quick reads, ideal decisions and precision only - they're in deep shit.  Kosar also had my favorite OC Lindy Infante who had the perfect offensive design for the personnel we had.  He knew they were gonna be blitzing Bernie frequently; and look how equipped Kosar always was for it.  Infante's spread offense at the time used to constantly get RBs/receivers to the hook zones and flats vacated by blitzing LBers.  

It'll be interesting to see what they can come up with for Watson.  I think Stefanski did a nice job with Brissett even if his play-calling left a lot to be desired at times.  If we have the right people in charge - the playbook will match the personnel and the play-calling will make sense most of the time.  

Who knows what the Browns were thinking these last 6 DW games. Maybe analyzing DW's strengths/weaknesses with this offensive system? They did seem to want him in the pocket a lot.

I want to be optimistic but it's hard. These 5 games this weekend, there were some great offensive play designs. Watching it, it's obvious the Browns lack the speedy WR other teams have....but our priority in drafting should be DT & O line, right?
