Week 1 Game Thread
- Thread starter Ale Xander
- Start date
Yep, it’s been a criminally poor performance for that defense. Free release, no chance.
AB’s debut next week though! Oh my. Ohhhh my. A date indeed next Sunday.
Actually let's be fair, on the jets FG attempt: the snap was low, the holder couldn't get it set or the laces properly and with the timing thrown off the kicker shanked it...a true team effort of suck
At least Bill won’t use his fake punt up by 30. New England will play vanilla and not cover.
You’re saying they Fins won’t give the Pats a game next week in Miami? I’ll believe it when I see it.
Odell, instead of going OB, just fucking dances and Nantz has an orgasm, while Odell runs backwards and the half ends.
GJGE.
GJGE.
Why does red zone keep saying that the winner of Bills/Jets will be the team to challenge New England this year? No one not named KC has a shot.
Houston. Pittsburgh. There are other teams who could find a way to get it done. But NE and KC are division 1 by a good amount. No doubt.
I want to root for them but I’m also really curious to see what happens if this Browns team starts the year slowly. With all the built up expectations the pressure will be huge. Not sure if that collective group of personalities can handle adversity or not.
I’m not sure why people are bearish on the Ravens. They were easily the best team in that division statistically, the Steelers got a lot worse, and while the Browns got a lot better, the gap between them and the Ravens last year was huge.
Also, beating the snot out of bad teams is what good teams do. The Dolphins are bad, but they won’t lose by five touchdowns every week.
Years ago, FO found exactly that: taking care of business with weak teams was more highly correlated with quality teams than was beating other good teams, as those games are more likely to turn on something incidental because the teams are close in quality.
I agree. How down the NFL cameras not have an angle right in the line from both sides
Belichick is in staunch agreement. Like there’s not enough money for them-and they provide a great angle anyway.
The NFL is definitely not awash in money. Makes sense they wouldn't pay for a couple of cameras.
Obvious caveats apply but PFF figured Baltimore to have the best secondary this season. Solid, underrated front seven. Maybe some WR questions, sure, but a solid OL too. They would expect some kind of jump for Jackson too, given a full year now under his belt and no job competition.
Also, as the meme notes, it’s the basic NFL media. Andrews doesn’t appeal to the common fan as a breakout TE. But Cleveland with names like OBJ, Landry that are household because fantasy? That sells, even if the numbers and film support what you and Rev have pointed out.
Red Zone is a mess, how do people like watching this? They are trying to show to much when it happens instead of staying on one game and showing the rest maybe 2 minutes later.
There's a lot going on. And it's the first week, Hanson sat out the preseason. He needs real time reps.
When I see the triple screen, I switch to one of the “singular” games on another channel. Maybe even double screen.
Triple box, OK. I had Sunday Ticket last year and forgot what it was called (didn’t use RedZone all year).
