Kyler is fun. Even the bad plays are fun. You never know whether the next throw will be a sixty yard bomb or tipped for a pick.

Conner on a one year deal at $1.7M was a pretty great signing.

Perplexing why Pitt didn't just resign him in that ballpark and then use their 1st round pick on a position of actual need instead of letting him go then drafting Najee Harris.

I mean, had he had enough passes to qualify (it looks like the data goes back to the early 80's), he's in the top 25 (best) for INT %... 2.3%. It's not an indicator of success, but I don't see him as interception prone.

Tremendous individual play by Kyler there.

That defender should have taken the sideline away and time would have run out. But I guess in real time it's hard to realize that.

Such a terrible, rookie play by Moore. Guessing he was confused getting a target somewhere beyond the line of scrimmage.

TV is muted, did Big Brother catch that call because I’ve never seen a red flag pulled faster than McVay did there.

Sorry if covered but does SOSH have a position one way or the other about the seemliness of an ad campaign featuring Gronk trying to scam military insurance.

It's been mentioned. Opinions vary. As my profile pic might give away, I'm a vet and don't give a single shit, apart from the fact the ads suck.

I think it’s weird. Not just the Gronk scam but USAA advertising in general. It’s only open to military members and family… yet if you’re in the military you already are well aware of their services. So who exactly are they advertising to? Not me. Not 95 percent of the people watching the game. I don’t get it.

Good enough for me, then. Seems like customer service is on to him so I won’t worry about it any more.

I used to live in San Antonio, where they are located, and often asked that question. Like, why do they even need to advertise?

We are coming off of 2 consecutive decades of war, and an entire cohort of soldiers are reaching the age where decisions like these are made. Insurance tends to have a long customer lifecycle, so getting them now is worth a lot.

Also, people like me, who thus far have been too lazy to investigate further.

How the hell do you miss that facemask on Stafford, with the calls QB's have been getting around the league all year? I saw that from 3,000 miles away, on my couch, gummied up and probably about time that I need some glasses.
