Looks like another overhaul due in Miami:-
Flores is lucky they don't have a bye week coming up although even that might not save him
Dual offensive coordinators - yeah, maybe not such a good idea
Tua might not be the best QB on the team still

How many times this season has Mahomes thrown a desperation ball while being tackled which has floated straight to a defender? Feels like one every game

The other trend is nonsensical attempts on 4th down.  Chargers second one today.

See this nearly every match.

that was crazy, throwing it 4th down on their 19 yd line

I've absolutely no problem with that call. Down by 18 pts - punting it away in that situation is just waving the white flag imo. Far too many old school coaches happy to punt until it's mathematically impossible to win

I have. It was only early in 3rd quarter.

To win the game they had to stop the Ravens at some point - give the defense a chance to get that stop. Not going to win otherwise. Besides lots of things negative happen on punts / punt returns.

Instead virtually guaranteeing to be 3 Tds down - and they were, and lucky not to be 25 points down.

Also see it all the time, not taking FGs and then not getting 4th down converted. Then later regretting not having those 3 points.

Analytics to blame - you cant factor in every variable. Definitely use analytics as an information source as an input to make a decision, not the actual decision itself.

If I'd bet heavily on the Ravens I'd have been delighted to see them punt. What I see more often is 4th and short punt, then next possession they're going for it on 4th and 10

More delighted to see them going for it.

By the way though, if in Ravens half then maybe - depend on yardage left, confidence in my o-line (chargers couldn't have been), FG range, play I liked  etc etc etc. 

Unashamedly  old-schoolHappy - most of the time.

But agree  - some head-scratchers at time.

Season is starting to settle down now.

Burrow has to be one of the most improved QB in the league, dont get me wrong he was always going to improve, because he was a talent, but the lad is on fire.

Packers was a blip on GW 1, They have been methodical since if not spectacular..

Someone has finally Told the Chargers that they aren't anywhere near a super bowl team and also someone has told Lemar Jackson this season that his arm is meant for throwing rather then carrying the football.

The Chiefs aren't the football team of the last two season, Mahomes is going to have to carry them into the playoff's, I feel they wont make it and if they end up against the Buccs I just cant see them beating that defence!!   

The Giants, Jets and Lions are awful teams and I'm sure the vikings fans hope they might get some defenders in the next draft, because once again they entertain us all, but you would never go under in their games, because their defence is as hard to break as wet tissue paper.

Only Arizona scored 30 on them, and they look like scoring 30 on everyone

5-0 Cardinals underdogs at 3-2 Browns. If anything I'd have the Cards as favourite but not much in it

I expect this is Darnold's last season as a starter in the NFL.

Could have a decent career as a back up I suppose.

Vikings Defence is weak compared to their offence - It cost them last season on so many occasions. I don't trust them, Allowed the Lions to have a chance last week. If their Defence could match their offence, they would make the playoffs.

The Cardinals have only beaten the Rams this season, their fixtures have been kind Imo.... I am a big fan of Kyler Murray, I think he is a genius

Cowboys still see them turning it around on the patriots. The Cowboys are hitting their mark, unfortunately got that interception at the wrong time
