I'm so glad there was no OT, would have been too much.

Not a pretty win but they are hard to come by, on the road, this late in the year. Take it and run.

Geno out in the first half but if KOC game managed late in the first half like he should have it would have been better.

We didn't dominate but you guys are tough to please. This was a playoff team, fighting for a division title, on the road and we won

KOC is getting better at trying to mix in short plays, runs and quick hitters, but still relies on the deep game too much. It usually boils down to a sack or a big play for the offense.

The KOC offense hasn't perfected the short game, so I see them winning one playoff game, then get bounced in the next round.

The key is they seem to play for each other. The oline loved Sam after that last TD.

I keep watching that TD bomb to Jefferson. Awesome throw. Amazing catch, but JJ makes it look trivial.

Darnold has to put it on the outside to keep it away from the safety, delivered beautifully, just outside.

JJ is looking inside, sees that it's going to his outside shoulder, has to do a 180, track the ball while he's spinning, catches it with his body perfectly positioned to keep the safety from having a swat at the ball, and then finishes the spin to dance into the end zone. And he's completely secure and fluid, like it's no effort at all. Grace.

Rewatched it over and over. Great play by both. What a great throw. Location was extremely good! Jefferson did make it look easy. Amazing play especially considering the circumstances.

It's even sicker than I thought.

KOC let slip that JJ didn't run the diagrammed route. What happened is that JJ got a clean inside release, "sensed grass," and went deep towards it. Darnold had to find JJ *after* he turned around from the play action. Now I'm half-guessing: it looked like Darnold had reads to the right, or JJ crossing/post, didn't see anything and in particular JJ wasn't where he expected. So that's maybe when he starts climbing the pocket and looking deep left for JJ. Spots him, and drives the ball into that thin window.

Now why is JJ so open? I think that's easier to explain, but I'm guessing a bit. The CB was playing outside leverage, which allows the safety to play a few yards closer to the center (he takes about 3 steps to the middle as JJ takes the inside release). The safety sees JJ's inside release and stays in position to stop a post and probably glances away to check for another post coming his way (makes sense if JJ is crossing, and Nailor looks to be going post, Addison deep sideline, with 2 safeties to cover 3 routes). But JJ rapidly diagonals away from the safety, who probably doesn't notice for just a fraction of a second.

If the CB gets a better jam on JJ, maybe the safety has enough time to glance at the rest of the field and get back to JJ. But the whiff on the jam means the safety is too late.

When does the PTSD stop and enjoyment begin?

Being relieved after being stressed for 3 hours can’t be enough.

Sometimes we will have to punt, sometimes we’re going to get scored on.

13-2 baby! Tracking down that #1 seed!
