Way off topic. If you looked at the Uber video linked in a comment a couple days ago, Cam Hayward had a really cool t shirt on. Any ideas where to get one?

Outstanding play by our O-line and in particular #74. I expected that BB would feel the heat from the right side most of the day. “Mother” Hubbard was locked-in and did his job! BB had (for the most part) all day to look for the open receiver and when he found him – delivered.

On the defensive side, we got good pressure on Fitz and the DB’s challenged the receivers on passing plays. After the first half, their running game was locked down.

A good game all around and on to Miami!

Never mind, now I see it in the “No Frequent Flyer Awards” article. Anyway, I have no problem with Coates, I think he is coming along fine and will continue to improve.

Hubbard was the real surprise, though. I think I saw the tight ends waiting to ‘chip’ the rusher on that side and they didn’t need to do it, Hubbard was on him.

When I watched the game, sometime in (I think) the 2nd quarter I thought I heard the play by play guy said that Coates had a laceration on his hand between the thumb and palm, then I think he came out with different gloves. This was right before all of the drops, and obviously would contribute to them. I haven’t seen this mentioned anywhere else, and now I saw he is listed day to day by Tomlin with a hand injury. Did anyone else hear this? I will try to watch the game again (I have it taped) and find it.

So I assume that means the Browns would go to Los Angeles…

The Ravens have really regressed since they won that Super Bowl, and now they’ve fired their OC after just 5 games. Next thing you know, to complete their devolution, they’ll be moving back to Cleveland.

I actually counted 5 passes Coates dropped. Basically all of his missed connections with Ben. Really happy he rebounded and Ben did not give up on him.

I didn’t particularly like the call for the fake field goal, but I will not be one to criticize it. The coaches saw something and decided to take a chance. Along with most goofy play calls, if it works, it’s genius. If it fails, it’s boneheaded. The Jets made a great play to stop it.

Being in DC, I have been thanking the fans of “the team that shall remain nameless” for beating the ravens, or at least, ending with game with the most points. Sounds like they beat themselves and there was bad officiating. I was too busy watching our Steelers play to victory. Top of the division is a wonderful feeling.
