2017-2018 NFL thread

Saw that Rodgers is going to IR, no idea if it is official yet or not.

Bradford's knee is supposedly pretty bad, and who knows if Bridgewater can fully come back. Good thing Case Keenum has been playing well enough for them to win games (that feels weird to type).

Keenum had some good games last year but then he turned into a 4th quarter disaster. Hopefully they aren't still counting on him when they have three straight road games in Nov/Dec.

Kaepernick would've been a good choice in my mind to replace Rodgers, or at least back up Hundley, considering how many good games he has had at Lambeau, too bad he is too busy taking the NFL to court.

Bowman signs with the Raiders, 1 year $3m.

Hope he rots.

Then again, maybe my annoyance about his refusal to accept a trade to the Saints is misguided, perhaps the trade involved re-negotiating his deal, or perhaps he just didn't want to pack up and move (for another couple years).

Billy Turner broke his hand and needs surgery and Watson has a calf injury. So umm, Bosa and/or Ingram might break a sack record this week if Drama Don plays RT.

Denver is also down to only 3 WRs for this week with Sanders, McKenzie and Latimer all out. That is with a hobbled Thomas, so really only 2 healthy ones. Hopefully the Chargers remember to Charger.

The Chiefs signed CJ Spiller. My phone guessed what I was gonna type correctly, so take that however you will.

I'm sure it will predictive text when he gets released also.

That was a GREAT burn, well done.


In other news, I'm not expecting much from this game tonight, which probably means that it will be unexpectedly good.

[draynay]

With Mariota starting it will be watchable.

[xskarma]

That was a dropped TD. That might come to haunt the Colts later.

[Crackleslap]

I can safely say, Titans are probably the team I've watched least so far.

Across the years, it's probably the Buccaneers for me. Tampa Bay never really good enough or bad enough to be interesting. NFC team to boot, so no conference interest. I can recall games I watched fro most teams, but the Bucs I can only remember watching the game they played against the Patriots some weeks ago and the weather delayed game they had last season against the Broncos. That's it.

Jimmy Garoppolo must be eating his heart out seeing Brissett playing for the Colts and being successful. He's like "I'm better than him and I'm stuck on this damn bench in NE!"

[Crackleslap]

But he's Brady's replacement!

"If a QB knowing the system is so important how does Jacoby Brissett just walk into Indianapolis and immediately run the offense like this?" Twitter

Errrr, good question.

Maybe Brissett is really smart? :P

[draynay]

How complicated can things be on a Chuck Pagano coached team?

[Vetali]

Mariota has such a good touch on deep passes even while hurt.

Ugh, that injury to Turbo. Hope hes alright.

Dislocated elbow it seems 3-4 weeks.


This turned out to be just as expected, entertaining game. Cause of course.


On to Falcons week.

[Grube]

I have not watched Brissett play, but his numbers are kind of mediocre. Then again it is the Colts roster he is playing with so might just be on them.

Also it must be nice to have have a kicker that doesn't miss half their FGs.

I guess we become enemies once again. Though I just know Falcons gonna score 37 points first half and then bleed 35 points in a row and it'll be a 2 point game and Shitriots score a FG in the last 1 second of play.

[KOMO1211]

on to Raider week on the short turn around. I feel good for the Chiefs going into this game. in other news they have resigned CJ Spiller for like the 10th time this season to back up Hunt and Mike Mitchell claims he is not a dirt player while all Steeler fans eye roll in unison.
