Week 3 NFL Game Thread

[Rudy's Curve]

The Bengals have done this the last 4 years in September. It usually ends in a hopeless first round playoff loss

Maybe this is the year they make the jump but I will believe it when I see it. They still have Lewis and Dalton running the show after all.

 
I must have missed all those Bills playoff wins the last four years. 
 
I'm generally a glass half-empty guy but the Bengals are 31-14-1 in their last 46 games. They are good.

 

[loshjott]

No, it's CBS, Nantz and Simms are calling it. It's part of the TV network agreements that FOX gets some AFC matchups (they had BUF@NE, Week 6 last year), and CBS in turn gets some NFC ones (like today).

I still can't get used to that.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Well over qualified to work for the Patriots.

 

[Warning Track Speed]

Which side of "Will the Bears score?" would you take right now?

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Dead solid perfect

Like, ever again?

 

[McBride11]

What in god's name is Goose wearing?? Bright lime green pants with some blue suede shoes? 

 

[E5 Yaz]

Perhaps it's about time to take Palmer out of this one, before he takes a cheap shot to the knee

 

[( . ) ( . ) and (_!_)]

How in the world did Minnesota lose to San Francisco?

Teddy Bridgewater was drunk for the first half. The QB play in that game was weird

 

[RoyHobbs]

 
Catawba (1989)
 

 
I feel like whatever "Catawba" is, they might possibly be better than some of the NFL teams being trotted out there in 2015.

 

[McBride11]

For Drew Stanton!!! Who knew he was still playing. Too bad Matt Leinart is announcing now.

 

[Van Everyman]

Stoneberner has a bit of a "local meth dealer" thing going on.

 

[ipol]

Stones don't burn...

 

[mauf]

Bowman hit Palmer in the nuts in that scrum to draw the flag, right? Not sure I've ever seen a penalty called in that situation before.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Dolphins needed two touchdowns on that drive

 

[Helmet Head]

I must have missed all those Bills playoff wins the last four years. 
 
I'm generally a glass half-empty guy but the Bengals are 31-14-1 in their last 46 games. They are good.

They are a very good regular season team. My point is we know what Lewis and Dalton look like when the playoffs arrive. I think the Bills have way more upside than Bengals this year. Just my option.

 

[ipol]

Hard to imagine Jimmy Clausen leading the Bears to a roaring comeback.

 

[johnmd20]

I know the AFC East is wide open, but is the whole league still laughing at the Patriots right now?

 
Wait, WHAT? Who is even close to the Pats at this point? This is quite literally the stupidest thing I have ever read anywhere.

 

[edmunddantes]

San Francisco offensive line is just getting steamrolled.

 

[Rudy's Curve]

Do we know what Jeremy Hill, Marvin Jones, Tyler Eifert and Geno Atkins all together look like when the playoffs arrive?

I think it was a Kid Rock video.
 
Point still stands

SoSH's own resident ortho says on Twitter that Ben's done for the season. If not an ACL, he suggests it's a high fibula fracture with syndesmosis injury.

And is getting ripped a new one by Steelers fans - so let's hope he's right!

 

[Ferm Sheller]

LOL Miami dipshits

 

[Ed Hillel]

GJGE Joe Philbin.

Will the Bears be favored at home vs Oakland? I kinda doubt it.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Why wasn't Bettis at the Steelers game?

 

[ipol]

San Fran's d-line is also getting steamrolled.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

LOL Miami dipshits

 

[E5 Yaz]

espn: Saints coach Sean Payton was asked if it still bothers him to have 12-men-on-the-field penalties in Week 3. "Yeah, absolutely it does. Absolutely it does. Yes." Payton and defensive coordinator Rob Ryan were shouting back and forth on the sideline after it happened during the game.

 

 

[Al Zarilla]

Run it up, Zona. To hell with Jed York. 

 

[Luis Taint]

Miami is garbage

 

[ifmanis5]

Lady at the Dolphins game giving the finger right there. Gonna make a great gif.

 

[Ed Hillel]

LOL, Miami's safety had nobody else to possibly cover and just let Hogan run free.

 

[RoyHobbs]

Lady at the Dolphins game giving the finger right there. Gonna make a great gif.

most exciting moment of that game

 

[ipol]

Great slate of games, NFL.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Joe Philbin:
 

 

[mauf]

Four of the early games started at noon local time. Why not move a couple of those to the late slot for a more balanced slate? (Three of those four games were far better than any of the three currently in progress.)

 

[Al Zarilla]

Great slate of games, NFL.

What is Broncos at Lions going to be like? Chiefs at Packers tomorrow night is probably a slaughter. 

 

[Freddy Linn]

How many times are the Bears going to punt on 4th with two or less to go?
 
Edit:  Simms is a goddamn moron.

 

[johnmd20]

Why is Tannehill still playing right now?

 

[ipol]

I'm actually looking forward to both of those games.

 

[Luis Taint]

Gif of Rex please

 

[bankshot1]

best part of Fins-Bills game is going to be Rex's pc.
 
this game blows

 

[mauf]

This is the part of the game where Tannehill shines.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Nice garbage time TD Miami

 

[Stitch01]

Mankins got tossed for that once his rookie year
