Good lord. I mean, this is what it feels like watching... but seeing the number compared to everyone else... I wonder if he's officially labeled in the playbook as "decoy receiver" until AR settles in.

Kinda feel for the guy. When you’re told to run a post route every play. Like they don’t have a use for him yet.

This (Nelson) is so good to see. I am so happy to see him getting back to the 19million dollar guard we need out there. I had doubts it would ever happen, good to be wrong so much about this team.

I want to point out Nelson also has a turf toe, which if you’ve had before you know they hurt like hell and makes it difficult to make sharp cuts.

Just reading about makes my eyes water

Love all these stats, looks like all the talk of great roster building the last several years is finally translating on the field. Hope Brents can continue to build on those numbers, could be a steal even for a Round 2 pick.

Bernhard Raimann is also the 5th highest graded OT in pass blocking

5th rated OT in pass blocking, a 3rd round pick.

Great find by Ballard in Round 3. Fantastic value pick.

Colts Defense - Week 2:

6 sacks, 9 QB hits, 10 TFL


Jaguars Defense - Week 3:

0 sacks, 4 QB hits, 5 TFL

Laremy Tunsil is a big difference maker, (Out Week 2, Played Week 3) but that doesn't fully explain this difference.

Tunsil did NOT play in Week 3.

He returned to practice last week, but was INACTIVE on gameday.

The same make-shift OL started vs the Colts and Jags defenses.

For a second consecutive week, Laremy Tunsil will be inactive for the Texans. Tunsil returned to practice this week and was limited, but did not travel with the team and was ruled out Saturday.

Fair enough, I didn't watch the game, just saw he was likely to play. Puts even better context on the Colts numbers, then.

Some of that is the Jagoffs being the Jagoffs. They usually play well against us, but they shit the bed against bad teams a lot. I mean in the game Sunday they gave up a kickoff return for a TD by a fullback who muffed the catch
