Ron Rivera declines to say where Greg Hardy was. Indicated he would address it at his press conference in an hour.

Get ya popcorn ready

Oh man...this doesn't sound good. Luckily we have great pass rushing depth, but Hardy's a freak talent (mentally and physically)

Drafting Ealy seems like a masterstroke now...Gettlemagic.

 

[jmdajr]

so now that have one of the losses for our 11-5 season out of the way. I cannot state how ecstatic I am about the rest of the season

You guys gonna humiliate the Rams right? I hope so. I need them D points!

 

[yankeehater]

I have no idea whats going on there

An Eagles QB missed an open WR. I guess Foles had reached some level were people expect him to never do that or something. It doesnt surprise me at all.

Traded him to the Colts for their #1 pick in 2015

- My condolences to the poster who lost his mother.

- And I'm glad the Cardinals LB is stepping away, I hope he can recover.

I'm assuming it'll be something along the lines of. "Greg Hardy did not miss practice today, he was no longer in existence. However, The Kraken did go on a rampage in downtown Spartansburg. As he's stated before, Greg Hardy has no knowledge of what occurs once he unleashes The Kraken"

 

[Suite Pee]

I hope this thing works out for Welker because I just proposed a trade to the dumbest guy in the league in hopes that he wouldn't find out about this until after the trade.

That'd be great, considering all signs pointed to Gettleman and the Panthers planned on letting him walk after the season.

You know on sports radio this morning they brought up a great point. They were saying that the NFL is now the only major sport to have an actual domestic violence policy. That all other leagues have incidents of domestic abuse and do absolutely nothing about it. The Ray Rice suspension was actually notable because it's one of the first suspensions they could think of because of domestic abuse in any major sport. Then they proceeded to talk trash on Brett Myers a whole lot, which was great.

I must have missed that.

Very sorry to hear.

If it wasn't against Dallas, hype would be through the roof as it's probably the best I've seen him play. Bears D isn't much better, so week 3 against Arizona will tell the tale.

Don't tell anyone:

Spoiler

I've been on the SF hype train since the Sherman tip. They are the better team on paper(when everyone isn't suspended), but Seattle's defense just stopped them when it mattered. I even bet them to win the Super Bowl when the odds first came out.

Bears.

Whoa Stark might miss this sunday? When the fuck did this happen!??

There's been a ton of DV problems in the NFL just a lack of suspensions.
Ray Rice being on video made Goodell have to do something for once.

 

[Bowser]

From Bill Voth who was the first to break the DA starting news:

Black & Blue Review ‏@BlackBlueReview 47s
Here’s the sense I’m getting: Greg Hardy’s absence today is not as big of a deal as it may appear because of the timing.

I realize. They were just pointing out that it's not unique to the NFL, just that the NFL is the only league to actually do anything about it, and it's time to get on other leagues now too.

Kap has swag for days.

Kap has shown the ability to actually progress through reads in the past, the issue is consistency under pressure.

Giants' punter Steve Weatherford tore a ligament in his ankle from a result of the Lions' roughing the kicker on him Monday night. Thankfully it doesn't require surgery and he was actually able to continue punting pretty well after the injury. But ankles are certainly one of those things that can blow up after the game is finally over and become an issue.

Looks like he got injured in practice this week.

Point me to the MLB or NBA cracking down hard on domestic violence? Maybe the NBA has, I have no idea. MLB has most certainly not.

1-1 isn't that bad right?

Not crazy at all. This is the nature of the game.

Lol at all the people acting like he was faking it or saying that the Lions just get a bad wrap.

I guess we won't be seeing much of that 5-2 this week. Still, the d-line is really deep and Wake, Odrick, Mitchell, Vernon is a pretty nice starting group!

I'm more worried about the o-line. Huge test for them this weekend.

No one said he was faking it that I remember. It was more that the Lions player was pushed into him.

RT @davebirkett: Panthers Ron Rivera said Greg Hardy had an excused absence today but expects him to be available Sunday

welp, much ado about nothing

"But there’s several things to point out. You know, we’re so used to seeing that blue color when we travel away. We see it all the time and there’s a lot of it. Some places we go -- in Arizona -- it feels like a home game, so we know that the kind of interest that let’s say a team maybe like a San Francisco -- not maybe, like San Francisco has. Several dynamics go in here. They have affluence. They can travel."

"Our stadium is very attractive. It’s attractive as far as people picking a game that they might want to come to Dallas to be with their team if they can afford the trip. We think that happens. It happened with Pittsburgh last time we played Pittsburgh. We won that game, but still, it happens like that. You do get a good following.

Those pesky affluent road fans stealing all those seats!

"So all of that came into play and resulted in a great turnout. The other thing is that you have a factor. San Francisco has a lot of fans here, a lot of people from California have moved to Texas and moved to north Texas because of economic opportunity.

"And then you have what we’ve always known in the NFL. You’ll see a father and a son and you’ll see a son be a fan of the team that’s a rival to team of the father. That’s throughout the NFL. Happens all the time. We see it in New York. That’s why we see Cowboys fans up there against the Giants. So you’d have a lot of with San Francisco because of our great rivalries of the '90s, you’d have a lot of families that normally might have a Cowboys jersey on, but that boy or girl put a San Francisco jersey on."

Sounds like those parents must be terrible at being fans if it causes their kids to want to root against them!

 

[BigAT]

I wasn't in the thread during the game, but were people actually saying that? That's absurd. Anyone that has done anything to their ankle knows that was AT BEST a bad sprain. You can't fake an ankle twisting like that.

 

[jmdajr]

Wonder how many Texan fans are going to fill Jerey's world. There were a ton of them for that pre-season game last year.

Funny you post this. yesterday over at a couple different Texans boards I freguent there were two different Cowboy fans posting asking for Texans fans to show up in droves when we play them in Dallas this year and to wear battle red jerseys. they feel it is the only way to convince Jerry to step back and hire a GM.

Was kind of surreal to read their posts.

He's not wrong. I'm planning on going to Dallas in 2016 for the Ravens/Cowboys game and it's because of the stadium.

Oh shit, next year Niners/Ravens!!!! Guess who's getting stabbed?

 

[jakncoke]

Not crazy at all. This is the nature of the game.

You dont find memory loss at the age of 35, maybe even younger and being forced into retirement after 1 more concussion crazy? Sure this happens a lot, doesnt make it any less shocking when you read about an active player suffering from it.

There are a shitton of affluent people in NJ and NY that are only an hour or two away from Philly and you never see them outnumbering Eagles fans Jerry.

You can do both. I did Hunter because the Bladedancer subclass is awesome.

To be fair, they likely don't have to worry about getting hit by broken bottles or frozen batteries in Dallas!

I could see that at the Vet, but at the Linc it's basically pretty tame other than a few incidents here or there.

And yet some people wonder why there is animosity between the two cities when their teams are in different conferences. I have met very few classy Cowboy fans.
