We've seen bad officiating cost teams in close games a few times already this year, but this takes the cake.
He's standing up with the ball and they signal for the other team. Wow. That might be the most bone headed call of all time.
Eli must be distracted thinking about all the fun he's going to have with Peyton on Tuesday.

Cupcakes!!!
Is Eli going to ask why Lionel Richie's constantly following Peyton around?

Nah, Lionel is only there on Sunday mornings. Although I do wonder if Peyton and the E-Man got to watch some football and each nachos yesterday.
Ravens release Justin Forsett for realz this time.
Turns out he's a diva. I'm so glad cause I've missed the diva WRs of yesteryear.
I don't want to defend Flacco cause I've never been much of a fan but the left side of the OL did give up perpetual pressure. It was tough to watch him throw all sorts of weird passes while trying to avoid the immediate pressure. That's how you end up with:
Throwing to his left, Flacco went 4-of-14 for 16 yards and no first downs. Seriously.
Gabbert has "one of the top OL" and all he's managing to do is not be Hoyer.
Bortles? Simple, a broken clock...
For Milkman, from FO's Week 4 Quick Reads:
On the QB list, Gabbert and Bortles 13 and 14. Flacco 25th, and a full 3 QBs ranked below FitzTragic.
Oh, Sims was terrible, and was used terribly. Good in space, one of those guys with great vision who's really fluid, and great once he gets out there. Has zero patience and can't break tackles, so, what did the Bucs do on Sunday repeatedly? Run him into the middle of the line. He doesn't wait for blocks, he just charges forward. He's a really good third-down back.

First of all, the quote was "potentially one of the league's better units", which you should know, since you said you were saving it.
Secondly, I notice you haven't been able to tee off on me on that quote yet, seeing as that line has allowed only its second sack of the season this past week, and only the first one attributed to one of the starting 5. FO's new premium stat database ranks them 6th in "pressure rate". I'd say my characterization that this unit's potential has been accurate so far. :)
Nope, I haven't, and I've been reading no about what a good unit they are and not posting it for all to see. I'll take my small pyrrhic victories even if only I know about them.
Beckham's fall has been nothing short of spectacular. He still flashes greatness on a play here or there. But sheesh it's nothing short of bizarre how fast he has fallen.

I'm honestly not disappointed after his antics in last year's Panthers-Giants game. I don't really wish another player ill, but I'll make an exception in Beckham's case.
Oh, and Drew Brees. I hope his little shrimpy arm falls off and he gets too fat to fit in those damn jeans he's always trying to sell.

That's HOF Drew Brees to you, sir!
Between Sammy Watkins being made of distressed tinfoil and OBJ being potentially insane, it's looking like Mike Evans and Allen Robinson are so far the winners of the great 2014 WR class. KB13, Jordan Matthews, and Brandin Cooks have had some success, but Evans and Robinson have hit it pretty consistently.
Every team is going to just bait OBJ constantly at this point. He's going to get ejected what, half the games he plays?
Continuing Chicago's ongoing factory of sadness performance, Kevin White is out:

Mike Evans was good enough in college to create hype for two players (Mike Evans and JFF).
He's a damn beast.
A counterpoint to OBJ is a douche: Odell Beckham Jr shakes every soldier's hand at Vikings-Giants game
DVOA finally has opponent adjustments in and ... Philly is still on top. Wow. Seattle has closed the gap, but being ranked 4th on offense and 2nd on defense is pretty impressive, especially since the Browns aren't quite as bad as we all want to assume. Don't get me wrong, they're still bad, but 22nd on offense and 25th on defense.
The Texans stand out as the worst team with a 3-1 record. They gave Oz a bazillion dollars, drafted speedy WR Will Fuller and are blessed with the 32nd overall offense. Nice!
Jacksonville's offense is ranked 28th, which I will tell you is exactly one spot below Baltimore. As their defense is up to 11th place, I'm going to stick to my guns and declare that Bortlesmania looks more like an albatross for Gus Bradley's career each and every week.
It's time, Legion.
