2018-2019 NFL Season Thread

Tuned into the game around the end of 3rd quarter. Exciting game till the end. Not a fan of the new catch rule though. Seems too easy for recievers. Like that "catch" at the end of the 3rd quarter.

So been wondering about the pre season power rankings. Do people really expect the seahawks to fall to 5-11(on average) with russel wilson at the helm? My guess is a 10-6 or 9-7 season. That of course does depend on how well the 49ers auctally improve. The seahawks have been getting 2 free wins for the last 3 years from them.

Bell really needs to be looking for another team.

That Conner dude is making him look expendable even if they are playing Cleveland.

By and large RBs and WRs are expendable. There's always another one in college about to blow the lid off the game.

Not to mention RBs have such a terrible shelf life you're looking to replace them within a very short window.
 
I really enjoyed seeing Patricia looking lost and confused tonight without Belichick around to bail him out.

That was a good ole fashioned butt whooping. Lordy.

The Rams are either really good, or the Raiders overpaid their coach. Boy did the Rams look good though!

I think the Rams are going to be really good. loading up on stars usually doesn't work out well in the NFL but I think they have a very good forward thinking and young coach so it might work.

I think the funniest part was John Grudens quote after the game where he was wondering why their pass rush wasn't getting to Goff..... Could it be because you just traded away one of the best pass rushers in the league there skippy?

Wow. After literally years of second chances, the Browns have finally cut Josh Gordon.

I’ve been supportive of Gordon myself...partly because the Browns are my team, partly because I think everybody should have a chance to redeem themselves, especially when they finally admit to having a problem.

But it looks like this is the second time Gordon has backslid since admitting he has a problem. That’s on top of all the chances he had before.

Yeah, it’s time for even Gordon’s most ardent supporters to cut bait. And it’s too bad.

Gordon took too long to say those four little words: I have an addiction. And the Browns had their own problem. They were so high on the (admittedly great) potential this guy has, that they couldn’t say those four other words: Josh, we’re cutting you.

I wish him the best, and he may become some other team’s problem from here on in, but personally I think he doesn’t know how to escape this trap he’s in. It’s sad.

Wow, what a crazy season so far.

Vikings/Packers tie. Two ties in two weeks, unbelievable. The roughing the passer call on Matthews in the 4th was total bs.

CB Vontae Davis retires during halftime!

Cleveland ineptitude rises to new levels. Kicker misses 2 FG and 2 PATs.

Patrick Mahomes has thrown 10 TDs in two weeks.

Wow, what kinda of starting player retires halfway through a game. No respect. He let down everyone other than the team he was playing against.

Patriots need help at wide reciever. No good wide recievers allowed the jaguars to double team gronk the whole game and shut down the Patriots whole offense.

Yeah, how weird is that? I've never heard of that happening before.

Oh, Gonzalez is so gone. We would've beaten the Steelers and Saints but for him. Eight points left on the field yesterday. That's just ridiculous.

He looks like he's going to be scary good.

The Browns are absolutely ridiculous at this point. I feel so bad for their fans. Talk about finding new ways to lose every week....or Tie I guess. Of course with that being said I'm sure they come out and crush the hapless Jets this week.

Meh I dont really think he let anyone down, the Bills weren't a CB away from winning that game on Sunday... They would have lost anyway. It was however a very bizarre thing to do... I mean he couldn't have played one more half of football? lol
 
"I need to see the film"

If Hue screws this up, he should be booed for the rest of the season if not fired right away.

I'm feeling pretty good right now otherwise, as a huge Cleveland fan. With Baker we looked like a real NFL offense that could actually move the ball. The defense with Garrett and Ward is great, and I legitimately think the Browns aren't a bad bet to win the AFC North with the way the Steelers are stuggling. We just need to sweep the Bengals.

Bills fans: how tf was Tyrod Taylor a pro bowler last year??? Our offense showed flashes of Ohio State vs Rutgers (from the Rutgers point of view of course). He repeatedly underthrew or overthrew wide open relievers and didn't know when to throw the ball away. Jeez, I can't count the times, especially on a running down (first and 10 or second and 5/or less) that he went back to pass, ran backwards a bit, and got sacked. He blew an easy touchdown when he overthrew Callaway (he's so fast, just chuck it to the endzone, damn it) and repeatedly missed wide open receivers for 10-15 yard gains.

Opposite of Baker.
