Only the Jets, Patriots, Giants & Panthers have fewer points scored.
Kenny Pickett and the offense are doing their damndest to convince everyone there’s no hope, but TJ Watt and the defense are always there to say HOLD OUR BEER.
Kenny Pickett played well on Sunday. He also got robbed of a TD pass by either Diontae Johnson or the referees, depending on who you ask.
I was fuming about that call until the game was over. If there’s any doubt at all the refs should call it a TD, then it gets automatically reviewed.
Which is funny, because the exact next play when we fumbled, they officiated it that way (correctly). I was mad we fumbled, but at least they officiated it correctly, which is all anyone wants.
The broadcast officials and analysts have consistently talked about letting it play out and then reviewing, but the back judge (who had no view of the ball at all) decided “nah fuck that” and called it incomplete.
I know we scrape the bottom of the barrel in opposition the next two weeks, and I believe this offense can consistently get yardage like Sunday - but we need more than 20 points to show if we’re facing the Cards and Patriots. If we can’t showcase some capable results, despite any ref fuckery, we’re fucked.
