I was thinking the resurgence of an 18th century plague for which he's the verified patient zero. Perforated colon would work though.

The addition of Pashcal is helping Hutch get loose and win 1x1 matchups.

Looked like a block in the back was missed at about the 10 or 15 yard line.

I'm okay with being conservative, but I would have liked to see at least one pass. Pick up some yards or a DPI and you might be able to steal another 3.

Dan getting conservative on us.

They were missing all three against Seattle and still put up 45. It feels like the offensive line has taken a step back from their initial dominating performances. We were running at will with any running back in those first four weeks. Maybe it's a testament to the Dallas defensive front. I hate Dallas, but they do have a good defensive line.

"Maybe next year" -1958 Lions

Are Swift and ASB that important to the team? I don't get the vanishing act this offense has made from the first four weeks. If the best offense and best defense this team has shown could meet and both show up simultaneously, we might have an actual team.

Dallas ran over our long snapper. I think that was the flag. Would have been 15 yards and an automatic first.

This could be roughing the snapper.

Should go inside, he goes outside. Should go outside, he cuts inside. 0 vision.

After the opening sequence of running running running, now they can't seem to get away from the pass pass pass.

Richie Incognito says what?

Love the narrative switch from "Dak came back to dominate Detroit" to "it's going to take him a week to get back into things!" Anticipating a switch back around the time Dallas scores its first TD.

Seems like the Cowboys realized what team they were playing on defense.

Swift has shown that over the course of multiple seasons. ASB was healthy all of last year and has had two injuries this year. Not willing to call them the same yet.

Anzalone completely lost.

No shut out today!!!! Forward down the field....

Play calling feels like they don't trust the offensive line in pass protection.

I wouldn't count on him returning at all. That's his surgically repaired ankle that's acting up.

Hopefully I don't regret these words, but I do not foresee a close game between Michigan and MSU. The talent discrepancy is so wide this year that I think a blow out like 2019 is far more likely than a game that goes down to the wire. There is something to be said for rivalry games bringing out the most in terms of motivation, but if you look at games across long periods of time, the better team almost always wins, and Michigan is certainly the far better team. Further, MSU will certainly be motivated, but I don't think there is a Michigan player on that team that doesn't remember the game last year, and how it kept them from a 13-0 season. That motivation will work both ways.

If the B1G was having a normal year I would agree. It’s just 1a, 1b, and the field though to this point. I don’t think Michigan will be tested by anyone except maybe Illinois (and that could be a blow out itself). Ohio State has Penn State in Happy Valley next week… mayyybe that one will ruin the 11-0 v 11-0 matchup? Penn State sure didn’t seem interested in challenging for the 2nd best team in the conference last week though.
