So that “punt returner touches the ball and it rolls into end zone for a touchback“ just happened again. Really crazy rule, return team really benefits.

Did they ever show a decent replay of the step out of bounds?

JimmyG rambles for the TD

Back to my Chase Edmonds bitching, Jordan Howard has more TDs than Edmonds year to date and he's been on an NFL team for 2 quarters this season.

Teams should do with their high draft QBs what the Jets are doing with White today. Assume the worst, get him out of the pocket, get the ball out of his hands quickly. None of this ten step drop fuck it I’m going deep stuff that derailed Baker Mayfield for a while, for example.

Meanwhile, the Browns punt from the 50 on 4th and 1.

Cut back to the game and it's first and goal for Pitt on the 2.

Smart job there Stef.

Maybe we will now get the PJ Walker MVP season that the pandemic stole from us.

The ones the play before that weren't (under current protect the QB NFL mantra)
Darnold gave himself up late on that play. Which is why it wasn't flagged. He was moving forward and the defensive guy committed and then Darnold switched around and tried to slide.

Not my view, but it was close. What about the hit to the head at the end, from the other defender?
