It's the NFL Week 1 Game Thread

[dcmissle]

I'm being forced to watch ESPN right now. When did Sal Pal start trying to be Dick Vitale?

Four- letter poisoning. I greatly prefer the Sal Pal who coolly did the play- by- play for TO's sit-ups.

Thumbs down for the new Jags helmets.

 

[ifmanis5]

And for the 3,834th time CBS is airing another Bill Cowher sit down with Ben The Rapist.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Whoops, wrong place.

Henne with his 2nd TD pass of the 1st quarter.  14-0 Jags in Philly.

Derek Carr must be thrilled Rod Streater just threw the ball for his first NFL touchdown into the cheap seats.

 

[johnmd20]

Eiftert just dislocated his elbow. It looked horrific. There was a hole where his elbow should be. I hope they get that back into place. He is going to miss some time.

LOL GENO

 

[glennhoffmania]

What the fuck is going on in Philly?

 

[Cellar-Door]

What the fuck is going on in Philly?

Their defense sucks?
Also Nick Foles was due for a massive regression.

 

[jmm57]

Foles looks as bad as I have ever seen a qb look in an NFL game

 

[Jnai]

What the fuck is going on in Philly?

 

[simplyeric]

Steelers return guy basically just 'asked the Cleveland kicker out on a date', Roethlisberger style.

 

[jmm57]

Foles throws an awful pick on first down from the JAX 5.

 

[Greg29fan]

OH MAH GAWD, THAT'S THE SANCHIZE'S MUSIC

 

[Jnai]

Wrong thread.

 

[ScubaSteveAvery]

Redskins being the Redskins.  Their XP was blocked.  They then give up a 76 yard TD.  On the next drive the punt was blocked and returned for a TD. 

 

[Greg29fan]

 

[Silverdude2167]

That is amazing but also feel like it should be a penalty....

Pressure generated by Clowney and Watt?

 

[simplyeric]

It was. Unnecessary roughness.

 

[johnmd20]

It was. Unnecessary roughness.

 
He should be suspended for that kick. It was full on front kick from elevation right into the head.

 

[ScubaSteveAvery]

Pressure generated by Clowney and Watt?

 
Watt has been active.  Reed and Swearinger have been blowing up a lot plays so far.  RGIII looks decent when he has time to throw.  He is still flashing arm strength when scrambling but he's getting no time to let plays develop. 

 

[PedroSpecialK]

LOL FLACCO

 

[teddykgb]

Holy shit flacco

 

[Silverdude2167]

Can we just call plays like that a Flacco? I know there are worse QB's but none paid like him.

 

[ScubaSteveAvery]

Hey, RGIII scrambled and slid.  Progress!

 

[ScubaSteveAvery]

Clowney out for the rest of the game with a "knee injury."  5 minutes before it was reported that he had a cramp, so who knows what is going on. 

 

[mauf]

Score one for karma on that RG3 fumble.

 

[mauf]

At the risk of being a broken record, the Pats erred by trading down last year instead of drafting Cordarelle Patterson.

 

[Greg29fan]

27-27 in Pittsburgh after it was 27-3 at half

 

[Dollar]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME AJ GREEN?
 
Edit:
 
AND ARE YOU KIDDING ME JEREMY MACLIN?

 

[Greg29fan]

Saints-Falcons is like an Arena League game

 

[johnmd20]

Looks like a 42 yarder for Pitt to win the game.

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

Saints-Falcons is like an Arena League game

 
No.  They play some defense in the Arena League.

 

[johnmd20]

Matt Bryant kicks a 51 yarder to send the game into OT and a 52 yarder to win it. Impressive.

 

[ScubaSteveAvery]

Bryant hits a 51 harder to tie it as time expires.  Colston fumbles in OT, and then Bryant hits a 52 yarder in OT to win it.

Too good to be true. Jacksonville looks deserving of survivor fodder every week from now till they prove otherwise.

 

[Greg29fan]

The Cowboys are who we thought they were

 

[ifmanis5]

Romo still Romo.

 

[Greg29fan]

Romo still Romo.

 
Fumble by osmosis?

 

[Spacemans Bong]

Let the curbstomping begin.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Romo takes a 12 yard sack on 2nd and 1 from the 2.

 

[Greg29fan]

Cowboys can't help themselves.  moving the ball with some quick stuff and running and they get to 2nd and 1 at the 2 and take a timeout and then a sack.  Dumb team gonna dumb.

 

[Dogman]

Poor tacking, poor coverage.  Cowboys look awful.

 

[Greg29fan]

allas

 

[johnmd20]

He is SO down in Dallas.
