Watching him play, it feels so much like Justin Herbert just doesn't know what he's seeing. Standing there failing to make a decision, except sometimes he makes a bad one. Nice TD grab by Nico to make it 31-9, though.

Fail Mary moment in San Francisco, with one official signaling touchdown and the other touchback after Michael Mayer fumble at the goal line.

Great INT by Treydan Stukes. 49ers O lives off that kind of threw & he took away space Purdy thought he'd have to hit Kittle.

Browns letting 35 seconds run without trying to line up for a play feels like a good example of how NFL teams don't value seconds before 2MW

So Harold Fannin bounces off a couple tackles and goes into the end zone, which means the Browns didn't need the time at all.

One of the Corgis in the #Panthers Corgi Race decided to go rogue. Group effort to take him down 😂 #KeepPounding

9. Finished +2 in TO margin & got a stop on 4&2/+5, still lost in OT. D got whipped late, O didn't win game w/ late chance & wasn't nearly as consistently successful after overall great first 2 drives. On to the bye at 1-7. /fin, broader thoughts maybe later

10. Oh, with the 2 drives today that made it to Bengals territory but didn't result in points, the Titans now have 18 such drives on the season. I track this manually for TEN so don't have this for anybody else, but that feels like a lot. /fin for real
