The Stout, the Defense, and the Offence

They are posers. They will be one and done when they get to the playoffs. Watch.

Depends on the matchup but they are legitimately a top 2 team in the AFC. Top 5 QB, elite run defense, well coached, and disciplined. This is basically how the Pats won every single bloody year.

They will lose the first game they play in the playoffs. You heard it here first

Lamar isn't quite as fast as he used to be, but you're kidding yourself if you can't see that he's playing through some pain right now.

He is clearly playing with a lot of discomfort in his leg. He hasn't slowed down much but the injury is making him tentative and the defenses are not respecting his runs as much. They see it too. On top of that he doesn't have ample time and space to throw to an open receiver. So, his on-field struggles can be explained thusly.

He didn’t looked pained at all when running, just slow and tentative. More like he.’s been in a funk the last couple of weeks.

I somewhat agree.. something is wrong but then whenever he ran, he looked fine so idk. Maybe its bothering but when its time to take off, he just like fuck it
 
Even with the 35 yard scamper being called back, Keaton Mitchell has 7 carries for 43 yards in-between the tackles. Very much relieved that we didn't move on from him whenever it was reported that he could be the odd man out.

To me, he is visibly missing the juice to cutback or make the initial burst. I would be surprised if his lower body is above 70% at this point due to the recent injuries. He's just trying to tough it out.

Exactly this. Everyone thinks what made him special was the speed, but it's always been the insane ability to change direction without losing momentum. The breakaway speed he had earlier in his career was just a bonus. But that ability to change direction has not been there in weeks. Looks labored and honestly looks like he avoids it when he can.
 
I’m so happy that there are 2 players with their names on the single season sack record leaderboard and they both play in our fucking division

It’s not just a lack of mobility, he seems to move fine but looks tentative and jittery.
 
We’re on to Cincinnati

In all seriousness, the offense is a huge concern atm. It’s everything and not just Lamar or the OL honestly. The only real good on offense is Zay Flowers.

I’m not sure how to fix this thing. It just looks dysfunctional.

He needs more touches.
