one of my favorite things about the NFL is how frequently bizarre shit like that happens. its the natural outgrowth of a high-variance sport with dozens of nebulously defined rules. every week these guys come out and risk career-ending injury and it's all for naught because a guy jumped a tenth of a second early. i love it

The amount of hype the last 9 months about the Giants, especially Daniel Jones and Joe Judge, has been nauseating.

Okay, so*Texans pick up 13 yards on 3rd and 15*Browns called for offsides*Texans can choose between 4th and 2 or 3rd and 10*They choose 4th and 2*They then punt the ball awayThe Kevin Stefanski reaction is amazing pic.twitter.com/HMpY4ErhX4— Benjamin Solak (@BenjaminSolak) September 20, 2021

that last lamar drive was so fun. his runs seem so casual, like the other team somehow forgot he existed.

he would seriously run for 300+ yards against Green Bay

Ok, Chicago you got your start for Fields and he got sacked 9 times. I'm sure you are ready to run him out of town now.
Garrett was in the backfield so fast on some plays you was thinking the Bears were running a power sweep with him.
― earlnash, Monday, 27 September 2021 05:39 (two years ago) link
I don't see why the Bears are starting with Dalton. I think this is pretty much all you're gonna get with him. They liked Fields enough to trade up for him and this defense doesn't look like it's gonna stop anybody right now
― frogbs, Sunday, September 12, 2021 10:11 PM (two weeks ago) bookmarkflaglink
hmmm so this take didn't hold up well
really cool to see Rodgers win it with 37 seconds and no timeouts but the game never should've come to that, some of the most lopsided reffing I've ever seen in a SNF game (sorry)
― frogbs, Monday, 27 September 2021 13:46 (two years ago) link
that noncall on the illegal hit to the helmet on Adams was a travesty
― Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 27 September 2021 14:02 (two years ago) link
they also missed a really blatant intentional grounding before the end of the half, gave them a late hit on 3rd-and-10 even though Jimmy G released the ball like a tenth of a second before getting hit and the defender tried to let up anyway, and I thought LaFleur's challenge should've been successful given the ground clearly aided the catch. all 3 of those calls led to 49ers TDs. then the Adams non-call right after which was a big "why do I still watch this dumb sport" moment
― frogbs, Monday, 27 September 2021 14:14 (two years ago) link
Chicago will never learn that you can be a contender in the NFL with a good offensive line. My whole history as a Bears fan has been watching quarterbacks running for their lives, grappling with injuries, and ending up with Jay Cutler face. Fans whine about being unlucky with QBs, but plenty of decent QBs have rolled through and gone through this same pattern. They ruin quarterbacks there.
The refereeing in the game last night was awful, almost game ruining for me. There were also some plays in that Bears Browns game that went in the favor of the Bears that had me going "Whaaatt?" That game probably should have been a shutout.
― beard papa, Monday, 27 September 2021 16:32 (two years ago) link
lmao the ref ltierally went over to McCarthy to ask him if he seriously wasn't going to use a timeout there
― frogbs, Tuesday, 28 September 2021 01:50 (two years ago) link
Finally saw the clip of Justin Tucker's 66 yarder...what a bomb. That record might stick for a bit, Tom Dempsey's 63 yard kick hung around till 2013.
Bears got a problem in that the McCaskey's run the club like a family owned car wash.
― earlnash, Tuesday, 28 September 2021 23:25 (two years ago) link
Watched most of the second half of the Bengals and Jags. Pretty entertaining game and you never know in about ten years, it might be known as the first time Burrell and Lawrence met in the pros. Both of them looked really good, Lawrence can really run quite well for his size.
Watching the post-game interviews they both came off as good corporate CEOs of 'the product' well groomed in mike speak.
Local news stations around here do a pretty good job covering local high school football and it always cracks me up when they put the mike in front of these players often times you get these kids doing their version of the ESPN mike speak. And really, they are better groomed than yo would think.
Burrell and Lawrence both in their interviews are the next step beyond of that corpspeak...sounding near like tech CEOs in how their new software launched. All Lawrence needed was a turtleneck...defending how their work had been good but it had not yet come together.
― earlnash, Friday, 1 October 2021 14:09 (two years ago) link
I like Lawrence because he's got a good quarterback face...he's got some odd features and kind of looks like a caricature but is also fairly handsome. almost reminds me of Joe Namath. that's how QBs should look. and why I've always liked Manning more than Brady

Jacoby Brissett of the Miami Dolphins has the unique skill set of running for his life to evade a sack when he's in no danger of being sacked

i don’t wager but the packers only giving six points at home against the steelers is absurd

Miami finally showing signs of life on defense, Colts drive extended by most abysmally bad facemask call in history (hands nowhere near the mask). and then of course they score and basically put it almost out of reach.

wonder if a team has ever lost more yards in penalties than it gained from scrimmage
texans came awfully close today (100, 109)

Thought the Bears would’ve accomplished that last week but 47 yards total offense and 44 total penalties.

lol I was thinking about that on the final Steelers drive, could totally see the Pack playing prevent defense and giving them an easy TD with :23 left. I mean that's what McCarthy always did
its weird seeing the Steelers in last place. I was surprised Ben was still playing...for some reason I thought he retired like 2 years ago. He didn't look great!
