I hear you on the numbers and memories. Although the best #82 in my memory is Antwon Randle El…. Stallworth was a shell of himself when I was old enough to watch him. So the few years that Randle El was productive, had at least more of an impact on my memory than Stallworth. I do remember him still being on the team when the police used to give out Steelers cards, but he was more of “you should have seen him 5-10 years ago”. During preseason, I don’t know 1/4 of the numbers to names, so most of them end up with a name from 20-30 years ago. I actually surprise myself how a name that I haven’t heard in forever will pop in my head from seeing a jersey number.

Super Bowl??? Maybe in 2-3 years, if extremely lucky. Fields looked pretty much like the guy from last year with pretty much identical stats. I’m not sure if he did enough to be the starter next week if Wilson is down. They kind of got themselves in a tricky situation with the QBs. Patrick Queen looked awfully like Devin Bush. I really hope that isn’t what he is going to bring. He had to lead them on missed tackles. Watt looked like Watt and huge reason of why they won. Hayward looked good, I can’t imagine he has more than a year of solid play though. I hope he got the guarantee money he wanted and put in the agreement that he will retire when they tell him he isn’t needed.

Yeah, it was fugly! Ya shouldn't have to rely on your placekicker to score (all) of the points.   Quite a few opportunities but they weren't capable of capitalizing.

I thought Fields was ok. He was off-target early in the game but once he settled down he was more accurate. The O-line didn't give him alot of time and he has happy feet. Patrick Queen was pretty good in pass coverage over the middle, but his tackling, and the run D in general, needs work. The Falcons RB Robinson was tearing off 5-7 yards every time he got the ball. Their best player was Boswell, that guy is money. Best news was the rest of the AFC North lost this week.
 
Falcons stomachs must be churning after Cousins performance. They paid that guy a kings ransom!

They will somehow get to 9-8 and be the 7th seed, and get lit up 35-10 in wildcard game to Josh Allen or CJ Stroud

And will have to mortgage the future for a top QB pick or settle for whatever QB is at pick 25 or so. I highly doubt their QB of the future is on their team now. I’d be thrilled if Fields were to turn into that guy suddenly, but I think he is just showing more of what Chicago decided wasn’t worth keeping around.

Jones benched after three penalties on the same drive, but fortunately Joey Porter only had 3 penalties for the whole game, though two of them came on the same drive. Porter is now in his 3rd year(?)  and appears he's never gonna learn to keep his hands off the receiver. He's touchin' or grabbin' from the 5 yard mark at the line off scrimage to deep down field. I'm surprised he's not called on every play.

My thought on JPJ, if you are going to be that handsy of a player, then maybe wear gloves that AREN’T BRIGHT YELLOW, when the other team has on white jerseys…. Not that the one that he almost pulled off the guy’s undershirt would make a difference. But his hands just stood out, so I’m guessing made it easier for the refs to see him grabbing and putting his hands too high.

JPJ is in his 2nd year...took over starter job mid way through last year. Big test will be this coming Sunday when Herbert comes to town...they finally play a top  QB in his physical prime. 

How about Holstienlesberger on Saturday!
