Is there anything more bland than a 13-13 tie in a preseason game?

[*Awful Llama*]

Candy asses. Should have went for the win and either won or lost.

[Joelist]

Tie. Can't even get a win...

My bad, I said 'sacks' because I thought it was more than one. How many rushinging yards though? Not much space for the backs.


...
Oof. 33 yards by our backs? Good thing Browning scrambled for 50 to make the stat line bearable.

83 rush yards 4.2 YPC.

Maybe the worst 2 calls Iv seen in a situation that we were in. Linebackers only got about 10 yards deep in both seam passes.



Idk if that’s on Lou or a LB with a case of wandering eyes but how do you let a guy get deep on your up 3?

Whoever those linebacker’s were in coverage may have just got cut there. Logan Wilson picks that shit off 9/10 times

I'll take bland over a bitter injury

No overtime in preseason?

Thankfully no.  May that be our only tie for 2023.

[Joelist]

Meh.

We picked Ridder off once (and no it wasn't PI) and should have picked him off again actually. Bailey dropped two INTs from Heinecke. We let these goobers roll up 390 yards of offense which speaks poorly of the players.

Good thing Browning scrambled for 50 on 4 carries. Backs had 33 yards on 16 carries..

The replay just started on NFLN, if you didn't get enough the first time around.

Nah. Enough blandness for one night.

I don't know, we just intercepted Des.  I like where this is going.

Did Murphy play?

I think they said he was sick.

It was a dumb post after I thought about it. Of course not. HAHA. I'm just drinking beer and didn't want to go back inside the house and be a responsible husband. Ya know, the street light comes on, time to go home thing.

[HarleyDog]

Didn't we cut Irwin? Burrow really likes that guy.
