People overreact in general. The real season starts after Thanksgiving when there is far less room for teams to hide their strenghts and weaknesses.

Browns-GAF is with you there.
This.. If you think the Jets are a contender under Fitzpatrick. You are nuts.
Dam I missed the 2nd half of yesterdays game!! Cashman's boy Dez is hurtBUT man that comeback, I wish my QB could do that!!
Shoulda drawn up a slant at the end....? *commits sudoku
Lol
Seppuku Rando.. Ask Weinke about the animes to teach you about it.
J.J. Watt had nine tackles, six for loss, two sacks and three hits on the quarterback. Jared Crick had three tackles. Vince Wilfork didn’t show up on the stat sheet.
They played the run well enough most of the time. Brian Cushing had a game-high 10 tackles. Jadeveon Clowney showed his explosiveness when he made two important plays.
You motherfuckers better not get him suspended until AFTER he plays the Patriots.
Leave Suh alone! Good, Christian young man is just misunderstood!
Goodall you spineless SOB. The Pats are actively fucking your wife while taking a dump in your mouth. Are you going to keep taking it or finally be a man and stand up for yourself?
He looked old last year too.
Peyton is getting by on his mind (one of the best ever when things are clicking). He has not been winning with his arm strength or physical ability for some time now.
those stats aren't accurate, Clowney had two TFLs, Mercilus and crick both had deflected passes. But the chiefs did a lot of screens and quick throws, they got the ball out quick so watt or anyone else couldn't get there. One of watts TFLs he was unblocked, one of his sacks was a lucky got smith by the shoe strings as he was exiting the pocket.
The defense shut the chiefs out in the second half and the 14 of the points came from the chiefs starting in the redzone.
Wonder how Reid handles that. Probably looks at Fisher and wonders why Mariota wasn't in that draft
e:
Thanks. Kind of forgot how good the Chiefs had it with field position.

Yeah but people like squicken and other pretend the ATL guys are somehow better than your standard garbage ESPN talking head when they really aren't.
Tell me more about QBR Wessling. Tell me more about how Vic Fangio has Aaron Rodgers figured out.
Morons. The only guy who is consistently intelligent on that show is the guy who is a Lions fan who covers random games for them. Always insightful.
Work is crawling by, I'm so excited for tonight. NFC East is looking WIIIIIIDE open.
Good morning. Eff Brian Hoyer.
The good thing about the loss was it wasn't a close game. The lost would have been worse if Hoyer looked ok and not awful because then we would have to endure him for longer. Hopefully Mallet will get the nod and he either plays well or bombs spectacularly so Texans fans will know what we have.

If the Eagles don't score 80 on a secondary that Dez Southward made, they are fucked this year.

What I liked about ATL was that their conversations felt organic. It was like listening to 4 guys who liked each other bullshit about football for 50 minutes while I worked out. Everything on TV is forced. Fake smiles and laughs and no chemistry. Just hot takes and fake overreations
I'm aware of the guys' blind spots. Wess is in the bag for Steve Smith, Rosenthal thinks BB invented football, etc. Of course the best way to know what will happen is to wait for it to happen. I'm just looking for a little sports conversation that isn't First Take over the top
A few thoughts/overreactions from my 10 hour football binge yesterday:
-Broncos - Wow, maybe I am overreacting here but I honestly have some sympathy for Peyton right now. He looks pathetic, and the line is a disaster. They'll probably get this remedied a bit, but I don't think they're a contender any longer. I have a very bad feeling this is going to end with Peyton fading out and hopefully he doesn't get badly hurt in the process.
-Not much better for the Ravens. New offense did not get it done - Forsett is not Forte and the Suggs injury is big.
-Still think the Seahawks are probably the best team in the NFC. That Rams D-Line is no freaking joke though - how fast they got in on Wilson several times was stunning.
-Sunday Night NFC East games are a recipe for madness
-Injuries suck - Dez, Kuechly, etc.
-Lions collapse was perfect. I don't get why Abdullah didn't get more touches, he is electric. I expect that will change as the year goes on but I'm always surprised when I watch the Lions now that they don't seem as explosive as they were a few years ago.
-Is this the year of the TE? Some huge performances

There is a thread in the OT for drunks to brag about how much alcohol they have consumed in a single day.
Can someone approach the mods and see if they can lessen Jakncoke's ban so he can post in that thread? I mean this is the thread he was born to post in. It would be incredibly cruel to both the board and Jak to miss out on this.
It would be like any thread about astrophysics, the law, aerodynamics, air pressure, complex radio equipment, or basic ethics and our boy KHarvey not being able to post in the same.

this morning I learned in CFL you can challenge pass interference, whether you thought there was PI and it wasn't called or PI was called you thought it wasn't.
We need this in the NFL, clearly the refs cannot see PI in real time unless its objectively blatant.

That was a nice and tidy Jets win yesterday, especially in the second half. Looked pretty disciplined out there, no excessive flags. Offense looks like it can make some noise and Ivory against the Colts run D should be a mismatch. I'm cautiously optimistic for now.
Two games tonight, on my birthday no less. Good stuff.

Did you enjoy the Patriots owning the Steelers once again?
This is not overreaction.This is the start of Titan's road to the superbowl!

Um excuse me sir, because slavery has been over for decades you cannot legally own anyone
No nor was I surprised by it.
Steelers team won't be a finished product until at least November.
Hoping that we learn how not to be retard in the RZ by that time. The team is going to look much better once Bell comes back and even better once Bryant gets out of rehab. We just have to tread water for the first month and then its on our stupid coaches to see how far they can take this defense, which has speed and talent, they just need to be coached up in the Xs and Os.
Speaking of retarded, how the fuck did the Lions lose that game yesterday? I stopped paying attention once they went up 21-6 or whatever the fuck it was.
Totally agree with you there in terms of them being fun to listen to, but also you're full of shit. You bring up their opinions as fact or to bolster your arguments all the time!

No I'm pretty sure the Patriots own the Steelers.
I look forward to seeing this game on Rewind, but I'm not sure this stat is totally expository. Wilson will hold the ball and take sacks rather than throw it away or force a throw
e:
I do like QBR!
Inexcusable.

Chargers:
Tough one for them. He played pretty well from what I saw of him.

The Jennings comment is hilarious. He had two other runs where he could have scored at the goal line unless he decided to have selective amnesia. Did someone tell him not to score on those, too? Please.
Lol can't believe Giants fucked that up. Romo was nice in the fourth, but goddamn that game made me feel a whole lot better about the East. Now the Eagles just need to get shit done tonight.
I thought Dan Quinn was supposed to have fixed the Falcons D?

You know who didn't play well? Fatthew Fatford.
Romeo is bad.
The Steelers kryptonite has also been smart coaches and fucking cheating cunts.
The Patriots have a smart head coach and have never read the NFL rule book.
We never had a chance.
Hope they go easy on us. ); At least we'll still beat the colts!
The one big takeaway I had from the few glances I took at that game is that my beloved Bevell has not figured out how to use Jimmy Graham, who once played basketball and was repeatedly abused by his mother.
Bevell seems to use the multi-sport athlete and domestic abuse survivor as a plug-n-play TE, simply inserting him into their existing offense as though he's just an improved version of Luke Wlson. Maybe I just caught it on some bad series or something, but that jumped out to me. Graham was in the flat a bunch. Bad scheming.

Just be glad that Hoyer isn't a Houston native.
Otherwise you'd have to deal with a bunch of nonsense from fans bending over backwards to defend him even though it's obvious he's crap.
Screw all of the dumbass Browns fans who thought Hoyer was any good just because he was from Cleveland. Dude is garbage and will always be garbage.
Texans still 2nd in the division! Beating the Colts now!

We will probably be dealing with Hoyer pt.2 in the form of Cardale Jones.. Oh god it never ends Bert.. It never ends..
So am I because that play summarizes the franchise in a nutshell.
It's a race between us to see who will fail for Cardale the fastest.. May the best team win.. And then cry.

I watched all of the Rams game in the second half since I paid less attention to the Bills. Hawks OL is trash, it's been trash for a while, and a good DL will work the shit out of them. They did a great job keeping Wilson in the pocket, the clock in his head was going off early. I thought Foles did an ok job, for the first time in a while, you saw some wide open receivers for the Rams, didn't see that when the moron was calling the plays.
This is the first time in two years that Bradford will play more than a quarter of football. I'll be happy with a W.

Don't worry, squicken.

I really hope someone else gets Cardale before the Browns get him.
He has a ton of potential in the NFL, but he's going to be a project. And the Browns are completely incapable of developing him into the elite NFL QB that he could possibly be.
