Fire sale implies they are getting rid of good players. Jared Allen isn't a fit for that team with the coaching changes.
I just signed up this past weekend and I agree, it's shitty.
Still haven't tried Fanduel yet.

He's such a joy to watch, though.
I find it so hilarious some Niner fans actually think he has anything to do with anything right now.
It starts and ends with Kap, and fans of other teams that have telling us he's been garbage for over a year now were right and all you can do is man up and admit it.
If you still don't believe it, please make a list of just how many other quarterbacks in the league (backup or otherwise) could possibly muster a game as bad as his on Sunday.
It wasn't just that bad. It was worse.

And Nicks? I bet that was an interesting meeting.

He should have never let him go. He was on the money in bringing him from the Cowboys where he was overshadowed by Witten. Mike Pope helped to develop him for two seasons into a solid pass catcher and blocker and he should have been signed to an extension and not allowed to hit free agency.
Though to be fair, Bennett is being paid top tight end money (6-6.5 million/yr) for production that doesn't quite line up, IMO.

One of these games, Rodgers will be able to comfortably sit on the bench during the 4th quarter and I can rest easy. I hated having to attentively watch the game last night and say things to myself like "I hope Alex Fucking Smith doesn't pull off a comeback on us".
Three amazing quarters of play from the defense followed by confusion and whatever the fuck that was.

I think the Vikings can win in Denver.
Exclusively because we have taken the 2009 saints approach to defense.

Apparently Wes Welker is there too.
Remember when they brought in Brandon Myers to replace him? Holy fuck was he useless.
they did stop them on 4th though!

I don't disagree.
I'd just argue that we got 623 yards and 6 TD's out of Donnell last season for a pittance. That's what Reese is seeing and why he makes the decisions he does on the tight end front. Not saying its right as I've already said I think we should have made more of an effort to sign Bennett but realistically we've been able to get relatively close production from the off-the-street guys for better or worse.
The explanation is worse than the grade, to be honest. Hot takes and click bait is replacing their subscription model.

Yeah we could have challenged the spot, had we a timeout, on one of those and it would have been Green Bay ball without a doubt.
The best part is he audibled into those two touchdowns. So he made quick accurate throws to a player who he himself put into a position to score...and gets downgraded for it!
Becoming more and more obvious that as PFF gets bigger the general understanding of football among their graders is decreasing rapidly.

Wes Welker is also working out with the Giants today.
Hakeem Nicks, Wes Welker and Chris Cooley all coming in today.
That's a lot of worn down tires right there.

Reese has handled the TE position as poorly as he's done with the LB's. Take a look at it. He's paid one guy from FA decent money (Boley) and they've drafted one guy in the early rounds, and he turned out to be a colossal bust (Sintim). All that in nearly ten years as GM.
TE's since Shockey:
Kevin Boss
Jake Ballard
Marty Bennett
Brandon Myers
Larry Donnell
... all have had the same production, but none were early draft choices or looked at as long term solutions. He's gotta change that.
EDIT. ^^ They'll probably make a move or two, particularly at DL because they have 11 guys there. Kuhn to IR?

Where is your new tag? I was lied to.

After watching Tannehill throw 4 abysmal incomplete passes with goal to go at the 2 I was very impressed by those short Rodgers TD's. I want the Packers playbook.

So Rodgers actually was playing shitty and is a total fraud?
GAF > PFF > GAF
GAF > PFF > GAF
The Patriots face Denver on the road as well. And between the Jets, Dolphins and Bills defenses, they have a much harder schedule than most give them credit for.
I don't really think GB has much of a challenge, although if the Bears game is representative of their away performance, then maybe you're right.
The secondary is still in flux for me to say it sucks. But it's not good. Malcolm Butler is doing excellent, but the drop between him and the no.2 corner is monstrous. I think Tarell Brown is the next best one on the roster. He is easily the most consistent at the position (and I'm pissed he dressed and didn't play, unless he was indeed recovering). Logan Ryan is mediocre and Bradley Fletcher is a liability. Justin Coleman looked decent. I'm surprised he hasn't made a trade for someone yet.
Defensive front looks good, and is going to get even better once Chris Jones returns.
Blount and Lewis is beautiful. We get LaFell back in Week 7 I believe. Really love what I'm seeing from the offense, and hope we can get Cadet, Chandler and 'dola more involved.

Cadet seeing the field more means Lewis had regressed.
If Rodgers is so godly, why did he get shutdown by Seattle last year?
Yeah I mean I'll keep him as the starter until the bye, give him the chance to fix his shit. If he doesn't we should bench him so we can get that conditional fourth from STL for next year. No sense in taking him out till then
do you even watch football?

i thought we established yesterday that fans of boston teams do not watch anything other than their own team?
Congratulations, PFF says Ryan Mallett is better than Aaron Rodgers.
Do PFF's grades incorporate Rodger's ability to generate penalties with the hard count? Because that is arguably the best thing he is doing so far this year, it's how he has been able to generate gigantic plays (including against us last week)
I would't say we shut him down (no one can), but we're able to do decently well against him compared to other teams. For the most part to the league has needed to accept Rodger's offensive capabilities as a sunk cost.
EDIT: Not to mention his calf was hurt in the NFCCG. Though Rodgers inability to stay healthy the past couple years has been something to note, doesn't seem like a pattern though
