The Giants very well may be joining you. I said on a Giants fan site that the folks wanting a new quarterback don't have to worry because the team will need to move on from Jones at the end of the season because he'll be dead. He was on pace to be sacked 96 times this season. So they'll just eat the dead money for the dead player next year and pick somebody else. With the 6th sack today, which by the way INCREASES the amount of sacks he's on pace to absorb, their second year offensive lineman Josh Ezudu filling in for 2nd team All-Pro Andrew Thomas at left tackle just let a Dolphin player run right by him and actually almost kill Jones. I was only joking, but that was a little too close to being real. Jones left with a neck injury, which by the way, he has already had a season ending neck injury once in his career. This is scary for him if it's any kind of serious. He says he's in pain, but he also says he's okay. They'll have an MRI tomorrow. Seriously, what the hell kind of blocking is this?

I probably will not lose sleep over the outcome at Acrisure, and even though the same goes for the outcome at Camden, I'm not pleased either. Nothing against Texas, but the Orioles winning it all this year would've been nice to see. As for Steelers & Ravens, it's all about matchups. Lamar has had success against the teams the Steelers have struggled against, especially teams featuring Belichick and Brady. However, it's a different story against the Steelers. Yet, to stick with tradition, Ravens/Steelers are a true 60 minute game. It wasn't so much 2 defenses killing each other, but it was more inept offenses. Especially Pittsburgh, and TPTB have chosen to forgo it. A big reason why it's easier to do something else for the most part. Too much on the to do list to waste time with average & mediocrity. I am happy for the win. I do not have time for people in Western PA "wanting the Steelers to lose" so that they could fire Matt Canada. That's a DQ as a fan, more than doing something else in lieu of being all-in on Pittsburgh. The big reason is that I hardly think they were making in-season changes anyway regardless of the outcome.

This Cleveland team beat the crap out of the Bengals, who have treated the Chiefs like they're just another football team. The Chiefs, speaking of Kansas City, are the only AFC team that has no issue with the Niners. Cleveland on most days would crumble to San Francisco, but the 49ers will be emotional before travelling for a 10 AM game West to East. Finally, the Eagles turned the 49ers into a bunch of people playing a football game at Lincoln Financial, where Brock lasted as long as A-Rod as a Jet. In fact, they put SF in a position where they ran out of quarterbacks. So there are 2-3 teams that can beat the NFC West champs, but will they?

Well, one of them will lose before Christmas. At least one of those teams, probably both. Philadelphia, who has a date at Arrowhead, hosts San Francisco this season. I don't think it's a big deal in terms of their fans. You're not wrong, but New England & Pittsburgh both have those very same brand of fans. It's been the norm forever. As far as the GOAT coach thing...pretty much what was said about Tom vs Peyton might be the case with Bill vs Andy. Of course, Tom sorta distanced himself. Andy may not have won a chip as a head coach until Patrick showed up, but unlike Bill, he's been competitive. He was in Philadelphia, and when he got to Kansas City, he turned that team around immediately. The success was there; no 5-11 or 0-2 starts needed. Colin and Jason from the Herd brought this up over the past year: if the rules now had been in place 20 years prior, we might not be talking about the current GOAT coach being just that.

Carey October 9, 2023 Share October 9, 2023 Yeah that's too bad. Though to be fair, it is still fairly early. FWIW, Dallas might have success against Philadelphia. Brock still needs to prove it. More on that later. I guess they don't do this for obvious reasons, or because they aren't allowed to, but I would've loved to see Dallas host an NFC Title game and lose at home. From there, whoever beats them gets the trophy celebration at midfield instead of the locker room. That I would love to see. I think I'm sick of hearing how Brock Purdy is undefeated (who every time) in "games he starts & finishes" as the last pick. Nothing against, Purdy, but to the media & whomever: Just say Brock Purdy is 12-1 and/or say he hasn't lost a regular season game. He's done well even in the postseason. IMO, saying the only game the Niners lost was the one he didn't play in for the most part is worse. Yeah it would've been a full loss had he completed the game at Lincoln Financial Field, but the fact that he got hit to the point where he couldn't continue adds insult to injury. Although his backup got hurt to prompt the following, hats off for trying to do what he could. Eventually he'll lose a game that he's involved in throughout its entirety, it feels like the media is overrating the guy.

NUguy514 October 11, 2023 Share October 11, 2023 I think that Aaron Rodgers is a deeply closeted gay man who is generally an asshole and who is also really, really angry about being closeted and that that rage has eaten away at him over the years, has started shooting out of him in other ways (the drugs, the anti-science/anti-vax bullshit, his general air of entitlement, etc.), and has created the hellbeast we now see before us. I might have had some compassion for the closeted part in the past (one of my uncles was basically forced back into the closet by my grandparents and was a very angry and greedy man the rest of his life), but, at a certain point, you make the choices you make and have to own them. I do think the closet kills, even if it's a slow death by a thousand cuts, because there's no way to experience that certain type of joy that comes with being able to live your life as you truly are. Rodgers can't or won't do that, so here we are. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/507/#findComment-8171768
Carey October 11, 2023 Share October 11, 2023 I'll admit I laughed at this statistic but then I sort of felt bad for New York. The reason is that a decision to move in the opposite direction instead of the correct one that has brought success is sad. Nothing against Bill Belichick, and maybe it's BS, but the 8 time champion leaving the Patriots to go the NFC isn't as great as it once was. BTW, that story, which isn't that new, was something I saw from SI on my phone (just a headline) Brian Daboll getting fired in favor of Belichick just in time to coach Caleb Williams makes no second at all, period. If someone else was the HC, then I could see that move simultaneous of bring in Daboll as an OC. But that's a definite no way in hell for me Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/507/#findComment-8172100

He can believe whatever he wants to believe but when he actively tries to dissuade people from getting vaccines because he knows things and has done his own research then he needs to STFU. And he calls Pfizer a corrupt company? Does he know anything about Johnson & Johnson? He says he is employed by the Jets. Who are owned by the owners of Johnson & Johnson. He just thinks he is so clever with his little word plays. Just like when he led everyone to believe he was vaccinated by saying he was immunized. 7 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/507/#findComment-8172317
