NFL Week 3 -- Winding your way down on Baker Street

Flag for incorrect use of "quarter pole."

The quarter pole is not one-fourth of the way through a race. It means there's a quarter-mile to the finish line, regardless of how long the race is.

LOL I remember when you school me on that!

In the words of Marv Levy "Ah…..that's a chicken ship call!"

I was engrossed in the Pac-2/7/? expansion and didn't even tune in until it was 27-3. Josh Allen is the man. I shudder to think what would have happened if the Bills would have listened to the critics who harped on Allen's 55% college completion record, instead of concentrating on his freakish athletic ability and arm strength, and selected Josh Rosen instead.
