Mike Quick- Eagles WR |
Tyreek Hill | 15 Targets / 13 Rec / 269 Yds / 3TD |
Not much else to say besides take a look at that stat line. That's what happens when you try to get after Mahomes and leave "Cheetah" in single coverage. Beyond dominant in the 1st half, the adjustment to play more coverage over the top slowed Hill down but then just contributed to the other guys on the team, namely Kelce, having a big day as well. Not sure if there is a game plan to stop the weapons on this team, go after Mahomes and he burns you for 70+ yard TDs, play zone and he'l pick you apart 8 yards at a time. Playoffs will tell but they look primed for another deep run.
DK Metcalf | 13 Targets / 10 Rec / 177 Yds |
Note to self: Don't try to get in the head of one of the most physically impressive WRs in the game (possibly ever) by talking trash about how he isn't on Megatron's level yet. Schwartz didn't figure that calling DK out in warmups would put a chip on his shoulder and it bit the Eagles Defense royally. While not as audacious a stat line as Tyreek Hill's, the physicality of some of the catches and run after made it clear that Metcalf came to play and wasn't having any of the talk about not being in Megatron territory yet.
Roger Goodell/NFL
This one is a reverse MVP due to the beyond embarrassing gaffes by the league this weekend. Between the still ongoing fiasco with the Steelers/Ravens game that looks more and more like the NFL trying to let Baltimore get healthy ahead of the big division game, and the lack of any competitive consideration for the Broncos being down all 4 QB's on the roster. Elway asked for an extra day to figure out some kind of game plan and was told to figure it out. Fully understanding that the NFL is doing everything it can to not only get this season in, but to avoid a Week 18 as well, I can be sympathetic to a very complex and nuanced problem. However in doing so, the ridiculous lack of consistency from team to team is impossible to ignore. Especially given the specific case of the Ravens whos strength coach intentionally was in the facility without a mask, and removed his contact tracing bracelet as well. NFL talks big about laying down punishment based on the factors involved in Covid outbreaks, but the Ravens intentionally violated protocol and are not being held to the same standard as the rest of the league.
Starting today through the end of the NFL season, each Monday we'll be breaking down a couple of the most MVP worthy plays, players, performances or anything else that went on worthy of MVP consideration.
Patrick Mahomes
Tough to argue with the level he plays on, week in and week out. The Raiders worked hard to come back and aided by the KC defense making some very dumb and timely penalties they climbed ahead late in the 4th quarter. But just as you don't ever give Brady, Peyton, Favre, Rodgers or Roethlisberger the ball with more than a minute and a timeout left, Ol Patty marched them right down the field. Calm, cool collected and dropped one to a wide open Travis Kelce for the go ahead TD. MVP worthy for sure.
CeeDee Lamb and Adam Thielen
Watching the CeeDee catch and thinking, "that might be the catch of the year" then only to see Thielen just be like hold my beer and put up one of the most ridiculous one handed, toe tap, corner of the end zone catches was insane. Granted both of these teams are heavily flawed and make no real threat to get into or make a push in the playoffs, it was still a really entertaining game and had 2 MVP worthy catches.
Justin Herbert
Minus the 12 year old looking haircut, it was yet another good week for AirBear. Looking more and more each week like the real deal and not just getting lucky, the Chargers may be competing for a while with the Bengals over who got the best QB in the 2020 draft. Now if they could just figure out the rest of the team around him, they might be able to turn these close games into wins and really shake up the AFC.
Honorable Mention - Pittsburgh Steelers
Nothing hidden behind the curtain here, We are big Steelers fans around the shop. However to ignore the 10-0 record, inching toward more complete performances, spreading the ball to whoever is hot, the defense getting better each week. It would be wrong not to acknowledge the undefeated and now improving Steelers. No clear cut best performance but all around looking like they mean business and are ready to make a real run in the playoffs.
We are proud to announce a private signing with the "Nigerian Nightmare" and KC Chiefs star Christian Okoye. Standing at 6ft 1in but going 250+ lbs and with blazing 4.45 speed, he stuck fear into defenses in the late 80s and early 90s.

EXCLUSIVE Aaron Donald, NFL Defensive Player of the Year Signing
For someone as accomplished and dominant at his craft as Aaron Donald is, he could afford to be a little cocky, but the fact that he isn't at all is what really makes him special.
We held an exclusive signing this past weekend with the NFL Defensive Player of the year and Pitt alumni and came away with even more respect for him than before.
Classy, humble and just an all around nice guy, he was beyond pleasant to be around, and made everyone in attendance feel welcome and part of the team. We are very lucky to have him signed to a 2 year deal for signatures and cannot wait to arrange the next signing event.
From the guys at MVP Authentics, a shout out to a real class act and great person as well as a world class player. We appreciate you and the way you handle your business, on and off the field.
Best of luck with the negotiations and here's to an even bigger and better year in 2018.
Oh and just because...H2P!!!
