Any time you're inside the 15 and have a chance to cut it from a 2 TD game to a 2 TD game you gotta take it

I dunno. At some point you need to win. I take the points there, especially against the Bears.

That’s the second time tonight that Fields has pulled him a snap over his head without letting the play get busted.

kicking the FG there makes no sense to me... you have 17 minutes now to score 2 TDs while holding CHI scoreless. Score a TD there and even if you miss the conversion you've reduced your needs (make the conversion you need to outscore them by 8, miss it you're down 10, so you either still need 2 TDs but can give up a FG, or a FG and TD with XP.

I was told there would be no math.

"ST-JUSTE" might be the coolest name I've ever seen on an NFL jersey.

Fields is a guy I'm gonna believe in so much longer than I should, the athletic talent is just so insane that I'll be talking myself into his learning how to play QB consistently for like 8 years

I swear...I have no idea how there are so few fumbles and so many drops in the NFL.

As someone said here recently (sorry, you deserve attribution but I forgot who it is).

The NFL is the best. Its also the worst. But its also the best.
