CD Newsletter Week 4

KC didn't look good in the 1st half, lets see if their luck runs out in this one.

Who's better, Jayden Daniels or Lamar Jackson?

Serious question 

WFT had scores points on 16 consecutive drives ... the longest streak in at least 30 years.

Bears should have drafted Jayden Daniels instead of Caleb, as someone mentioned a few times before the draft (takes a bow) Although, I still believe Caleb will be ok.

Bo Nix had 60yds passing .... and they won. Fewest in over 20 years.

Vikes at 4-0, with their last 3 wins coming against the 9ers, Texans, and Packers, who all made it to the Divisional Round last year.

Jags have lost 9 of their last 10.

If they keep losing maybe they can draft a QB.

Please don't get the angry Grimace going.

He's already on tilt, now buying multiple points across key numbers

7 completions for -7 yards in the 1H

Harbaugh goes to the Chargers, and they suddenly start playing close, low scoring games.

Coaching matters

@Hugh_Jorgan

About that, I think this minor detail may prevent it: Trevor Lawrence signed a 5-year, $275 million contract extension that will keep him in Jacksonville through 2030. The contract includes a full no-trade clause.

But Harbaugh is still a headcase, like his brother, goes for it on 4th & 1 on the 3 yard line of KC and fails to convert, instead of kicking the FG.

What was the line between the Chargers n Chiefs when Herbert was named starter?

Is Harbaugh cheating again? It was my understanding that he wouldn't play all week. And the line was around -7/-8 Chiefs, all week long.

Did Harbaugh follow proper injury report protocols? I mean I get why he kept it a secret, to gain a competitive advantage and such.

@yaongingy

I'm aware Lawrence will be there for a few years, my post was me being sarcastic. 

Speaking of 'coaching matters' ... Belicheck will be the HC of the Cowboys next year

@Hugh_Jorgan

I know, but the timing is still funny, although I don't he is to blame for this season.

And here come the Chiefs...

I'll take this opportunity to pat myself on the back and paste a prediction from the summer newsletter. It emphasizes how we as humans are idiots, and never take our own advice...

Which team will kick ass this year that no one expects? That's the best value to get, if anyone is privy to such a team, alla the 2023 Texans. For predicting on which team/teams will suck when everyone expects them to be awesome, I'll start with the Eagles and 49ers.

Thinking I found the team for 2024. And they go by the name of the Commanders. 

Jayden Daniels is ripping up camp. If his college talent transfers to the nfl, watch out. Looking at the roster, it looks solid imo. Additions like Austin Eckler, Zack Ertz, and Bobby Wagner offer veteran leadership. They may be on the tail end of their careers physically.

The offense could be dangerous. 

And the nfc east won't be difficult. You know how I feel about the Eagles. The Cowboys are Jeckyl N Hyde. The Giants are going to suck I think.

What do you guys think?

@undermysac

 I think that in the future you should screenshot it, print it and put it on your fridge door.

And KC go up 17-10. 

I can do it with the best of them 

Terrible decisions the closer I get to Sunday. Also, fuck props, teasers and parlays. I would of been 3-1 on straight plays this week minus that shitty bank roll killing prob bet.

4-0 if the Falcons don't score one of their fluke td's. But that's just bad luck, it happens. Not mad about that one.

I'm mad that browns kicker missed the Xtra point that would give me a push , but instead gave me a loss

I think you're predictions are much better than "RR out ... EB in"

A friendly reminder that it is a long season. At 2-0 everyone was saying the Saints were one of the best teams. They are now 2-2.

The NFL is the ORL (Over Reaction League).

Lotta football to be played

The Mets gonna lose the first game vs Schwellenbach.

Then Braves will rest some starters and not pitch Sale.

As a Mets fan, I am accustomed to heart ache, so they probably get swept

Mahomes is 13-12 in games his team has trailed by 10+ points.

The only QB ever to have a winning record in those situations.

By comparison, Brady was 36-61 when trailing by 10+

Jayden Daniels has a 82.1 comp % 4 games into his career.

In the history of the NFL that is the highest comp % (min 100 attempts) for any QB EVER, over ANY 4 GAME SPAN OF THEIR CAREER.

Holy smokes

I think this Commanders run of offense in the past 3 games is one of the best in the history of the NFL.  I have no way to explain it.  Just incredible.

@vanzack

You know KK had to be smiling after hanging a 40 burger on the team that fired him
