NFL Week 13 -- Suddenly There Came A Tapping

I always get confused on how the stats work on hook and lateral plays, and the box score isn't really helping. That counts as a touchdown pass from Josh Allen to Josh Allen?

yes he doesn't get credit for a catch though only the yards from the lateral

I wondered the same thing. All I know is that you can't trust what the ESPN app says.

Yeah. Allen is the pretty clear MVP.

McCaffrey…..for only being 28……has a lot of wear on those tires.

True. Seldom has a Hall of Famer had the sort of drop-off that Tucker has experienced this year, and that is ominous for them.

We have gotten so used to athletes cheating the aging process (and bouncing back from what were once career-ending injuries) that it feels astonishing to have one of the best at their position turn sour in their 30s. It used to be routine for even the best 29-year-olds to feel Father Time's breath heavy on the neck.

Collinsworth is gonna get an earful from spnited.

I remember hearing that if Carolina kept him and their punter they'd be winning superbowls

True, but it is different for kickers. Jan Stenerud did it for 19 seasons. Gary Anderson went 23 seasons and Morten Andersen still made nearly 90 percent of his field goals in his 25th season.

Nobody wrote that, but some did argue that they didn't get enough for him.
