The Bills held Henry to 57 yards on 19 carries, Tannehill didn’t get to 200 yards passing and they still gave up 42 points LOL.

Titans are really good.

Really well coached team it seems like, they can still win if their stars don’t always show up and Tanny has a rough night.

Hopefully Conklin isn’t out for too long

You mean Lewan. From the early reports, sounds like an ACL, which is pretty rough.

This was another major demonstration of why the NFL needs college OT rules. Houston failed on a 2-point attempt, then the Titans scored to force overtime, and won the coin toss, and were able to score a touchdown, denying Houston a chance to have the ball in OT.

In college OT, each is guaranteed at least one possession.

**** college OT rules.

Defense is half the game.

So is JuJu just not that good anymore? Last year's down year could pretty easily be chalked up to awful QB play + injuries, but Ben is back, offense is humming along, yet through 5 games JuJu only has 23 catches, 194 yards, and 3 TDs. He's actually on pace for less YPG than he had in 2019. In JuJu's defense he's competing for targets with stacked group that includes Claypool, Diontae and Washington, but after a 166 target, 1400 yard season in 2018, it looked like he might be a #1 WR in this league (albeit mostly from the slot, a Michael Thomas type) who even in a crowded WR room would demand good chunk of targets.

Agree, can t stop a team from going 75 yds to give up a TD after playing 4 qtrs, no need to continue the game.  

Yes and no.

Defenses get gassed towards end of the game much more than an offense.

Yes, it is part of the game.  But no, it is an advantage determined by a coin flip, which is dumb for a professional sport.

No, he's still very good. He was never a #1 Wide Receiver like some people thought he was, but the reality is we have 3 Wide Receivers who could play like a #1 on any given day (Johnson, Claypool, and JuJu) as well as Washington who can also have a good game like today. Nobody on the Steelers corps is gonna be a bonafied 1,000 yard guy this year because our O just isn't built like that. Hopefully this also helps us retain JuJu for cheap.
