OCTOBER 19: Around the NFL, Week 7

[zow2]

By the way, Jayden Daniels got injured, maybe a hamstring and didn’t come back. Did not look good.  So the lucky Kansas City Chiefs probably get Marcus Mariota next week in Arrowhead for MNF.

It seems in the NFL over the last couple of years that unless you kick a FG on the last play of the game that you run the risk of losing even with less than a minute on the clock. Maybe its something to do with the new kickoffs increasing field position or the fact that defenses play too much soft zone /prevent but it seems like no game is really over until it really is 00 on the clock.

And if you play man you'll get flagged for defensive pass interference unless your the Chiefs.

They get everybody injured.  Raiders were missing their playmakers on offense today.  It's sickening.

Have to say though that Darts almost game winning drive was probably the luckiest and least deserving I have ever seen.

I agree.  Why he was flinging the ball down the field when he needed to move the chains reeked of “Hero Ball”.  

[Process]

Anyone know where I can watch the 4Q of that Broncos game? Struggling to wrap my mind around a team being down 18 with less than 6 minutes left, taking the lead, losing the lead, and then taking the lead again, all in regulation. That has to be one of the wildest finishes to a game ever.

You ok man?   Bills didn’t even play today and you seem fired up.   Hang in bro.   I have been there.  
 

I try to remind myself that things like football, college or NFL, are a privilege and we are lucky to have it so readily available.   
 

Go Bills!

You mistake disgust for being fired up.  It was an observation of someone who shells out good money for the NFL ticket and loves football.  IMO the NFL has several quality control problems ranging from the play to the officiating to undermanned, injury riddled teams trying to field "professional" rosters.

Oh Coach Daboll...you sir have outdone yourself

I thought 2 of his long passes were there but he missed the throw

Bottom line - Giants scored too quick

 

Its 2025.  If the other team needs just a FG and has 30 plus seconds left - that’s plenty of time.  
 

 

I’m just a common sense coordinator looking for a job.  

 

i would not critique that.  You can’t play around when you need a TD.  If it was a FG, you can make a better argument or if they scored a TD when all they needed was a FG.

[Aussie Joe]

Very interested in seeing how the Atlanta D goes this week

Kicking was inexcusable on the Giants part. Cost them the game 2x over.

I hear you.  I’m right there with  Sunday Ticket since 2000.  
 

But I’ll say this and I hope you agree.  I’d rather watch the NFL and the questionable quality than have to sit through any of the reality TV stuff that clogs the channels when football isn’t on!

 

and I did find the Bronco/Giants back and forth entertaining to an extent.

You gotta feel for that back up fella.   He seemed morose when they showed him.   I bet he wanted to take an Uber and catch a commercial flight home away from the team.  

[Big Turk]

That should be a fireable offense to allow a team to score 33 points in a 4th quarter.

 

How the hell does that even happen? Broncos seem to be involved in a large number of horseshoe up your ass games recently.

[billsfan714]

Nice watching 49ers team tackle Im not use to seeing that and thats without Warner and Bosa.

Is it in Collinsworth’s contract that he has to strap on the knee pads and slobber over someone  each week? Tonight it’s Bijon Robinson ….Penix should feel slighted 

[Brand J]

That ATL DL does get in the backfield surprisingly fast. They’ve got a bunch of no names on that line.

I mean they have two first round picks at edge rusher and the backup is a former top 10 pick as well.   Id hardly call them no names.

I’ve been doing a bit of work to prep for the week so haven’t paid attention. Had he compared Mac Jones to Mahommes yet?
