And he gets a long bullshit PI call on his second attempt! Go Tyler! ---

Browns actually have a third quarter lead over the 49ers with a practice squad QB, this is quite unexpected. ---

Ah, it’s Tyson, not Tyler, Bagent. Remember the name! ---

Noooooooooo!!! (TYSON Bagent threw a bad interception). ---

Im confounded by Kyle Shanahanhahanhanahan’s playcalling towards the end of the Browns game. You have the best RB in the NFL, and, while trying to run out the clock, you call 3 passing plays. Too clever by half. ---

The refs are Browns fans today, though. ---

I am shocked the Browns won today, I figured they had almost no chance, especially with an XFL player starting at QB. They did benefit from some crucial bad calls, but to be fair, the refs were pretty bad all game long - the 49ers took the lead on an interception after an uncalled PI where the defender threw the receiver to the ground before the interception. Browns D is undoubtedly legit at this point, shutting down one of the best offenses in the league. Maybe a little short on big plays like turnovers for TDs but they’re dominating the LOS and covering receivers super tightly. They improved the D-line this year but it’s clear that the old D coordinator, Joe Woods, was holding the unit back, as all Browns fans were screaming for 4 years. ---

I agree his play calling was bad, but they lost McCaffrey to an injury earlier. ---

My Eagles are pulling it off but in a sloppy way. We have a bunch of D-starters out and communication looks dopey. ---

NFL network just ran a stat that the Browns have allowed the third fewest yards through 5 games of any defense since 1970. ---

With the Niners and Eagles losing, the remaining 1972 Dolphins members can pop the Champagne corks. No undefeated teams remain in the NFL. ---

And as much as I blame Johnson’s OC play calling, he didn’t throw three awful passes too easy to miss for an INT! What was dumb from Johnson was passing on 3-9. Run the ball! No first down? Fine. Punt and make Wilson bring the ball back to score with around 1:10 remaining, with no time outs. I thought this was a basic thought process in calling plays. Plus plenty of injuries for both Eagles and Jets. Grrrr… ---

Bills got lucky. That very last play at the end should have been yet _another_ defensive hold or PI, which would have given the Giants another untimed down with half a yard to go.
