for some reason my brain just had vivid memories of the Rollerball remake

Jahmyr Gibbs going for 28 yards on a Lions trap run. These types of runs can get muddy at the second-level, but this was a clean hitter.

Roy Lopez (#51) knocks back the center and gets the domino TFL

As the nearest coverage defender this season, Quinyon Mitchell has allowed a completion percentage of 45.5% and a success rate of 36.4%. Both rank 1st in the NFL among the 59 outside CBs with 200+ coverage snaps, per NextGenStats.

The cursed stat that @natetice.bsky.social just dug up that the Patriots defense is allowing a touchdown on 73.9% of red zone trips and that is the 6th-highest red zone conversion rate since 2002 (!!) gives me the bubble guts

New Football 301! @mattharmon.bsky.social joins me to discuss fatal flaws for current playoff teams. We hit 6 teams on this show, including whether the Lions have a tendency problem on offense right now (🎥). Plus, Eagles-Packers MNF recap and reactions to the Daboll firing.

can really see Caleb Williams getting more and more comfortable with operating under center and working over the middle. progresses here from post to dig and his feet stay calm. With the intermediate defender not causing any hesitation on the throw.

these windback runs have led to some big plays for the Bears this season

Sam Darnold nailing this throw to JSN moving left on a boot. Makes it look easy but that's a pretty tough throw to make!

Drake Thomas says cheers

Rams 13 personnel in 3 play sequence. PA wheel route to Ferguson w/ great protection (including a double team by the TEs). A true naked w/ motion at the snap and routes working back (look at the 49ers LBs). Zone run against two-high (that formation vs. that front) for a TD.

Byron Young (#0) knocks back the TE and gets the stuff on 4th & 1

what a snag by George Kittle

Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams on Dig routes forever and forever a hundred years. Gonna run around and do all kinds of wonderful things.

UDFA rookie Elijah Ponder with the win vs. Tristan Wirfs and gets the sack on his second chance

great rep in the slot by Christian Gonzalez on Emeka Egbuka. Helps lead to a coverage sack on 3rd down to end the drive.

a defense that once thrived by having swarms of smart players around the ball just feels so scattered now. NGS has a stat called "group tackle opportunities" for defenses, which is exactly what it sounds like. Bills group tackle opportunities/game: 2025: 35.1 '24: 49.9 '23: 41 '22: 48.1 '21: 45.3

talked about this play last night on the recap show, but I was so impressed by Drake Maye being able to create a play here on 3rd down (with two hands on the ball!) after pulling it down.

just an excellent throw from Drake Maye on that Kyle Williams catch & run TD. across the field while getting hit, puts it right on the money and Williams doesn't even have to break stride. Top-tier stuff.

“I thought Dodgers season was over”

5-3 is so fitting for these two bizarre ass teams

We'll be going LIVE in less than 5 minutes to recap week 10! See you all in there! www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3Gx...

A reminder that Football 301 will be LIVE after the late afternoon games wrap up! Come hang out with me & @fourverts.bsky.social as we recap week 10! www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3Gx...

Nico Collins had a ridiculous one handed snag on the 2 point conversion

Maye has moved Bucs defenders multiple times today with his eyes on their quick-hitting concepts like Stick.

London's favorite NFL player!

Mike Vrabel having Drake Maye effectively take a knee on 1st & goal

D'Andre Swift vs. two Giants defenders in space

a top speed of 21.78 MPH for Kyle Williams on that catch & run TD, per NextGenStats. fastest top speed hit by a Patriots player this season.

KYLE WILLIAMS HAS ARRIVED

Caleb Williams makes (another) free runner miss and hits Swift for a successful gain

Falcons and Colts are now 0 for 12 on third down today

one of those close games that might get a PS5 beep

such a sad trombone series for the Broncos after getting a turnover

Drake Maye steps up and hits the Sail route to Diggs to convert on another 3rd down.

Justin Jefferson with a kip up after the QB kneel

New Football 301! A very special guest joined me to hand out midseason awards: @robertmays.bsky.social! We make our picks for MVP, DPOY, Protector, Assistant Coach (Kubiak! Shula! 🎥), and more! Plus, we react to and grade an eventful NFL trade deadline.

“they’re a sad, sad group, aren’t they?”

Drake Maye finds a crease in the pocket and nails the throw to Hunter Henry to convert on 3rd down.

a lot to criticize the falcons about, but the selection of jalon walker looks like a major hit so far. been getting better each game he plays and i thought he had his best game of the season yesterday which is good because i had gasoline and a bandana ready when they gave him #11

the ol' picket fence

this is where the ball gets completed

where do you think the Rams ran the ball on this play?

a throw worthy of all 3 all-22 angles. Look where Davante Adams is at when Stafford is letting this go.

oh my Byron Young

the Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua TD was an absolute beauty. 6 points of gold at the end of a rainbow.
