Seabass sucks at the onside kick

 

[Fitts]

So Raiders could be tied if not for Seabass, right?

In all fairness, the first fg attempt was tipped.

 

[JABEE]

I'm on #TeamFMT tonight.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Our offense is so so bad. If we don't fix things soon, that schedule after the bye will destroy us

 

[Godslay]

If PM didn't throw int we would have 19, so no.

If & buts...

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Yeah I tired of these commentators give Peyton any credit. Dude has been horrible. Call it what it is.

 

[Plinko]

Now that Stafford is done, let's move on to Lombardi. Then we can fire Caldwell and Mayhew.

Exactly.

 

[ampere]

But obviously it's because I'm just such an asshole to everyone, right?

Apparently in Mech's head you are!

 

[squicken]

I'm on #TeamFMT tonight.

Everyone is

 

[WedgeX]

Now that Stafford is done, let's move on to Lombardi. Then we can fire Caldwell and Mayhew.

Haven't been able to watch the game since the first half, what happened?

And at least the current score and record makes it easier to take the franchise apart.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Broncos got the Browns then a bye. hahahaha Two weeks off.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Holy shit, that was Mech? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH What a baby

You're alright, Darkest.

Almost as bad as wasting Barry Sanders and doing nothing to stop him from quitting on the Lions.

Why would they stop him? Honestly. If they were in his position, they'd have retired too.

 

[LionPride]

If I'm GM, I'd call playoff contenders and see if anyone needs a WR. Get Calvin somewhere he has a chance to win and hopefully get a 2nd round pick for him.

I don't know why I don't just go start cheering for an organization that isn't a complete fucking joke.

I honestly want to see Calvin traded to a contender. Patriots, Packers, Bengals, I don't care. Just get him away from the most disappointing team in Michigan.

 

[Sviatoslav]

I'm on #TeamFMT tonight.

Yes. Let's keep the Cowboys first in the division.

 

[Godslay]

Just hike it to punter and run out clock by running around with ball.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

I'm not one for controversy. I'll give it a rest, Mech. Let's just call a truce.

 

[Plinko]

If this was a good organization I'd be 100% confident that this would happen. But this is not a good organization. This is the organization that gave Matt Miller a contract extension.

Mayhew had arguably the hardest job in the NFL: rebuilding an 0-16 team. He succeeded to an extent. I can honestly say we have NFL talent on this team, which genuinely was not the case a few years ago. Levy, Ansah, Warford...we have drafted some good pieces. But Mayhew has missed on so many picks, ESPECIALLY second round picks (btw Van Noy is inactive today).

However the biggest Mayhew fuck up was the Suh situation. It was quite clear that Suh didn't want to be here, and even more clear that keeping him would require giving him QB money. Yet the Lions never prepared for the likely result of him leaving. We could have drafted Aaron Donald, and thus have had the best young DT in the league. Instead we took a vanity pick: a TE who doesn't block, another weapon for Matthew. Ebron isn't a bust but regardless it was a bad pick.

Mayhew has to go. Lombardi should be fired tomorrow. I don't care what happens to Caldwell tbh; inf we bring in a new FO I could see him getting one more year before getting bounced.

There is absolutely zero chance a new front office would keep Caldwell for another year.

Mech blocked me on XBL because I talked shit about Watt. He doesn't forgive.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

We suck.

 

[squicken]

Football Perspective @fbgchase
It's week 5, and it feels like the AFC East, AFC North, AFC South, AFC West, NFC North, and NFC West are already wrapped up

Still think Seattle can win NFCW but otherwise, pretty grim

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

Just hike it to punter and run out clock by running around with ball.

Nah, eight seconds is too much unless he can run all the way to the endzone for a safety.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Change your avvy to Watt's butt and he may forgive you.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Lol at those attempts.

 

[Fitts]

GG Broncos fans. After some more refinement/maturity we'll finally be giving you some competition in the West.

 

[XenogearsX]

Dallas should give Cassel a chance

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Why are the cowboys still throwing?

 

[Zeke]

So done with this fucking offense I hope cassel starts after the bye

 

[Milchjon]

Weeden :-(

Feel bad for him and his shittiness

 

[JABEE]

Chip is going to sign Kaep

Super top heavy this season. It's been a really forgettable year so far.

 

[Herbs]

Why are the cowboys still throwing?

Yeah, they need to quit. It's like they want the Pats to run the score up on them. Douchbags.

 

[Godslay]

Probably would have clocked it.

Even so, mistakes could have been made. Punt was right choice, but should have kicked out of bound.

 

[IAmRandom31]

There is absolutely zero reason to keep playing Weeden. He can't even throw simple fade routes in the end zone to wide open receivers.

There isn't a Quarterback in this league who couldn't throw 2 yard passes to running backs all day. Anytime Weeden throws down field it goes god knows where.

If they play him next week it is just plain bad coaching.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

 

[Farooq]

I thought Byron Jones did a really well against Gronk.

 

[Starphoenix]

I don't see Seattle coming anywhere close to the division. They just don't look right, and Arizona is firing on all cylinders.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Punish Mech by making him a Titans fan. Hehehe

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Who do the Patriots play next week in an NFL football game?

 

[Milchjon]

That Cutler TD was pretty

 

[Sviatoslav]

What's the downside to cutting Weeden right now? I wish we had Jimmy instead of Garrett.

 

[IAmRandom31]

I thought Byron Jones did a really well against Gronk.

or D actually played really well. It would have been even better if our offense could have sustained some drives and kept them off the field more and we had all our players.

Our whole team v NE would of been a classic game. Would of been fun to watch. This game was always about how many points will NE score. Us holding them to 30 is a huge win if you ask me considering all the circumstances.

Glad we are walking away without any more major injuries. That is the biggest win.

What's the downside to cutting Weeden right now? I wish we had Jimmy instead of Garrett.

There isn't one. He has shown he has no capacity to throw down the field. His passes are all over the place. His numbers look decent only because he throws 2-4 yards every single play and any QB in the league could do that behind this OL. It makes it impossible for our running game since the D can play 9 in the box to defend those short passes happening the whole game. When Weeden does throw down field, its more likely to end up in the corners arms then our receivers.

 

[Duxxy3]

That Pats games was just sad to watch.

 

[Narras]

Kind of depressing watching Weeden. You can tell that he knows he's not a good QB.

 

[Arc]

How many garbage time TD attempts did the Cowboys just blow?

 

[whytemyke]

There is absolutely zero chance a new front office would keep Caldwell for another year.

I honestly want to see Calvin traded to a contender. Patriots, Packers, Bengals, I don't care. Just get him away from the most disappointing team in Michagan.

I would be giddy to see Calvin get traded to New England. He is to me what KG was to Timbervolves fans.

And yeah, I can't imagine a GM that wants to keep his job not getting rid of at least one coach tomorrow.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

You guys should trade for Osweiler before Denver is forced to play him!

Eww

Also Darkest, you're the number one VT fan in my book.

 

[Kurt Angle]

this harbaugh video is gonna make me cry

"who's got it better than us" :'(

 

[Troy]

It's funny that next week is considered a revenge game for the Pats...for a game they won.
