My FIL put it best a moment ago: "Murray has looked out of sorts all game long. Every time we've seen him on the sideline, he has looked as if he wanted to be somewhere else."

I hope it's just one bad day. He's a good athlete and (normally) a lot of fun to watch.

Absolutely hate the spike one play after a TO. Gotta know what you’re doing there so you don’t have to squander a precious down, especially since you’re inexplicably calling short plays in the middle of the field. Kingsbury is brutal, and KL didn’t exactly look confident/ in command.

Always liked Raiders. Always like Chucky. Always hated the Fish but don’t mind their current incarnation.

Just Win Baby!

Good job by Murray finding the open man, but it’s a TD if it’s not underthrown by 5 yards.
NFL looks silly in anointing him to the Pro Bowl with two games remaining on the schedule. Murray lays an egg on the same day a snubbed Tom Brady throws for 4 TDs and a perfect passer rating. Brady's effort clinches a playoff berth, while Murray's Cardinals are farting their way to a disappointing finish. Why not wait until, you know, that actual season is over before bestowing season-representing honors?

Even Engram made the pro bowl this year. The entire thing is just a popularity contest. It doesn't mean that much, except for the players who have incentives in their contract.

I'm always frustrated watching him that the Pats didn't draft Renfrow. He's pretty much exactly what everyone thought he'd be in the pros and fits what NE likes to do on offense like a glove.

So the uh, the Dolphins d is good because they played the Pats and Jets 4 times, right?

Don't tell me this shitty Raiders defensive front is going to stuff this Miami offense that ran all over the Pats last week!

Late to the party, but does anyone know what happened to Kyler Murray at the end of the game? How did he get hurt?

Waller had more receptions in that drive than Patriot tight ends have had the past two years.

What a tire fire that position has become for them.

And Wide Reciever.

And Defensive End.

And inside Linebacker.

And outside Linebacker.

And Defensive Tackle,.

But their solid everywhere else.

Thank God for the 2020 draft because they actually added guys who seem like they can play, TEs excluded.

Easy run into the end zone after the catch. Seemed like the Raiders only had 9 men on the field.
