Teddy certainly hasn't played as well as well as we all thought he would this year, but this certainly isn't the week to knock him. I would expect people that only saw the stats to say that, but if you actually watched the game, which I'm assuming all of you did, you would have seen that he played well. He made so many plays with his feet. He evaded a lot of sacks. He ran for one huge first down. The improvised pitch to Asiata that nearly led to a first down was a great play. He didn't have a great game with his arm today, but he had a great game with his feet, even if it doesn't show up in the box score. He just turned 23. Hopefully he'll get better at reading a defense, which in turn means the ball gets out sooner.

Underrated games from Kalil and Rhodes today. They barely threw at Rhodes, and I don't remember hearing Kalil's name called. Obviously TJ Clemmings played poorly, hopefully he'll get it together. Sendajo was terrible, I wonder if Newman can do what Woodson did and move to safety next year?

I remain a Teddy fan, but am getting concerned. If Teddy (which would be my preference, because he seems like a big character guy) could only connect with the receivers more, along with AD's running and this defense, the Vikings would be scary.

But a racist comment? No. Not even.

How would you like to be Carr on the sack Joseph had on him? He could have killed him but didnt go for the driving into the field. But Carr is going to have nightmares of Joseph. He is one of the few players we couldnt afford to lose (Diggs being another). Isnt he someone Norv liked? At least thats something Norv got right :)
Norv pushed for Pruitt too. And yeah Joseph has been a beast. Just shows that some shouldn't jump to conclusion so quickly with people we sign. It's clear that it takes a while to get use to this system. Look how much better Joseph and Cap are this year. This is why I think Waynes will be a stud next year

I believe Dan was directing his comment to Baller and not you.

Kramer #### rules. That show could still be #1 if they were making new episodes today.
