Exactly- the only thing I need to know about TNF is that if there were numbers showing injury increase they would be ALL OVER every time a major players gets hurt on TNF. But instead it’s just radio silence with the actual numbers.

Jamarcus Russell was a rookie, this is such a weird comparison.
Cleveland for one half of this season has looked like they could contend with good QB play let’s not try and paste this year over last year.
There will be arguments for the Watson contract being an all time worst because it’s guaranteed and because he’s a sleeze but there is still next year to play, how can we fully judge it yet?
It gets complicated with injuries and special teams coaches are generally working with back ups of offense and defense so that availability change drastically over the season week to week.
It’s still insane that it happened it’s not as insane as a player who is never out there going out there just for the heck of it. More than 12 players on a team have been out on a FG block unit.
Pretty good game- I mean it wasn't like TNF or some of the other snoozers. This was a solid C. We had field goal for 3 quarters but we also had DaVante Adams and Garrett Wilson both making plays and dramatic red zone stops.
Then the end was pretty good. It's as good as we could have expected O'Connell vs Z.Wilson to be!
The fake spike into triple coverage by Zappe after a Mac Jones benching… for a often dull game that was a very memorable ending.
Kirk Herbstriet was almost defensive about Bryce Young thing whole broadcast.
Multiple times talking about how people “will blame” Young, about how he doesn’t need to score 50 (more than 6 though maybe?), about how Bryce Young is like… managing a great field position battle. And that “they could use DJ Moore”.
I feel like it is more than fair to criticize Bryce Young after these last two games, he’s been horrible- why can’t we blame him?
Some people have not done enough time in corporate world.
This leaves the door wide open for a trade. “No plans to” in place of “not”
Just rolling out “increased injury risk” and listing things doesn’t mean it’s true.
The 17th game certainly adds injury risk by volume but the real two things at play have always been at play 1) NFL football games are just insanely hard on bodies 2) recency bias, we forget the last injuries once their present impact is over.
