2017 NFL Draft & Season Chat Thread

Help us out and break our tie with Tennessee! Haha.

Ben with 4 TD's and 3 to AB
When the steelers get their O going its hard to beat them. Deadly in so many positions. I really like how they came out and threw down the field so much and tested that Tenn Defense. They were not afraid to throw into coverage. Luckily he did not pull a Jags and throw 5 picks :)

I still can't believe the Jags did that to Big Ben. I honestly didn't believe the Jags' defense was legit until that game. Just limiting Big Ben, AB, and Bell is a hard enough task. The Jags of prior years would have lost by 3 TDs. That being said, Pittsburgh and New England have asserted their dominance on the AFC again. Both had some head scratching performances earlier in the year, but both are the clear best teams in the conference now. Bell had to get that rust shaken off and wow, Pittsburgh's defense has really come into their own. As a Buckeye fan, it's nice to see Heyward and Shazier being such big playmakers for you guys.

Some early ramblings
- Cutler throwing 3 picks vs the Bucs... Moore comes in
- Gabbert looks solid for AZ, Peterson struggling on the ground.
- KC & NY is an ugly offensive game
- MINN with a slight lead on the rams.. Was expecting more from the Rams offense
- JAX is putting up the yards, they are just slightly ahead of the browns. They also put the ball on the ground 5 times. (only losing 1)
- Detroit exploded 21 points in the 2nd quarter, and holding a slight lead on the Bears
- Baltimore keeping GB in check as Hudley threw 2 picks so far.
- Where is the Saints offense!?? Losing the washington 24-13 in the 4th

Dallas and Philly should be a good game tonight. Philly should take the W with how well they have been playing and dallas without Zeke
Bills bench Taylor, eager to see how they play.
 
Bad idea to bench Taylor. Tyrod Taylor replaces Nathan Peterman after rookie throws 5 INTs. Bills lost 54-24
Cincy holds on to Win @ Denver. 2 Turnovers for Broncos led to a strong game by Dalton who threw 3 TD's.
Brady and Pats too much for Oakland in New Mexico. Easy 33-8 Win
Brees and the Saints rallied 18 unaswered to win in OT vs the Redskins. They are rolling at 8-2
Baltimore shuts out GB. 23-0
Minn ran strong vs the LA Rams who were silenced to just 7 points.
Stafford too much in a close 27-24 win vs Chicago. Trubisky is playing well & Howard ran for 125 on the ground.
Jax woke up in the 4th quarter to close the browns 19-7
Giants get a nice win @ Home to pick up their 2nd win of the year 12-9 over a strong KC offense who had trouble getting going.
Foreman ran for 2 TD's win help Houston win vs KC. But Foreman was taken off the game and looks to have a serious injury (Achilles)
Cutler throws 3 picks. TB capitalized and won 30-20

Dallas.. Man they are not looking good at all. Dak threw 2 picks and they had trouble getting the run game going. Rivers threw for 400+ and 3 TD's

Prediction for tonight:
Washington - 24
NYG - 10
 
2017 NFL Draft & Season Chat Thread

Dak has had Zeke to open up the playbook and take the pressure off him. IMO, Dak is an average QB with a playbook that features Zeke. He's not a top 5 hall of fame Tom Brady jr QB like Dallas fans think he is lol.

Zeke on the other hand will be a HOF if he stays healthy and in the league

Dak is dealing with Eli's situation the last 6 years. No RB and no OL. Eli currently has no WR and his best years are definitely behind him, not to mention McAdoo is a bum, but it's still humorous to me.
 
Bengals & Dalton keep the Browns on the losing streak. Will they get a win this year?
Garoppolo makes an appearance at SF and throws a TD. Seattle is just too much for SF . Wilson threw for 2 and ran for 1 TD
Mariota struggled with 2 picks, but still gutted it out to edge the Colts. 20-16
Carolina punt return for a TD Sparks the Panthers to get the necessary momentum to get over the Jets. Cam had a lackluster game through the air, but still trotted for a TD 35-27
Brady throws for 4 TD's & Dion Lewis ran for 100 yards + 1 TD. Pats looking strong as the season goes on. Easy W over Miami
ATL Pulled up the trick play with Sanu and he throws a TD. Ryan and Coleman both looked strong as they took care of the Bucs at home 34-20
Bills on the road take care of KC in a very hostile environment. Both teams struggled on Offense 16-10 Bills
Wentz and the eagles are soaring. 10-1 and crushed Chicago 31-3
Eli Struggles and only throws for 100 yards through the air. Redskins take the W 20-10
Dak again struggles and Dallas is 5-6 after losing to the LA Chargers 28-6
Carr & Oakland look good and sneak by the struggling bronco's at home 21-14. Lynch is still looking for a breakthrough game.
Goff plays a hell of a game to take down the powerful Saints. Both teams are 8-3 and look great
Zona beats the Jags on a last second FG 27-24.

Prediction on PItt & GB

Pittsburgh - 28
GB - 7

Cant believe you didnt mention julio jones going for 250+ yards receiving and 2 TDs in your writeup! I have a feeling he'll keep dominating the rest of the year after his slow first half.
 
Damn....
Ugly Win for the Steelers, but that FG to end the game was $$$$$

Dude my Aaron Rodgerless packers almost got the Steelers!! Would have been a great game with Rodgers there! The steelers probably took the Pack a little lightly without Rodgers there.

Really surprised about Eli. More surprised that they are starting Geno.

More surprised the maras are allowing that pedophile creepy ****ty guy to continue coaching. I hope Eli goes to Jacksonville and wins another ring. Or even Washington when Cousins leave. The disrespect is insane. McAdoo is gone. Reese is gone. Time to clean house
 
bbartsche made the prediction of Eli going to Denver.

He would have a great RB In Jax to help take some pressure off his shoulders. Could be big tossup where he goes.
Deion Sandwrs did too at the beginning of season but Jacksonville makes more sense imo due to ties to Coughlin. One of the most talented teams minus QB

I hate to say this, because I like the guy, but I hope Brown's toe injury is serious enough to affect his performance. A win in fantasy football this week guarantees me a $50 payout, so I need that guy to lay an egg.
 
He would have a great RB In Jax to help take some pressure off his shoulders. Could be big tossup where he goes.

I think Jacksonville will be the front runner. McAdoo's offense worked when TC was still head coach bc he would veto the dumb **** McAdoo would do and would keep Eli going deep. Obviously, TC isn't coaching Jacksonville, but Eli has a ton of respect and familiarity with TC which should sway him there.

In the mean time, I hope the Giants spend the next 5 years searching for a QB like the Browns. Maybe that will teach Mara and Tisch some respect and something like this won't happen again. Absolutely pathetic
 
The problem is the browns have been drafting QB's for years and still have not found an answer after starting what 25 different QB's in like 14-15 years? haha

Makes me wonder. Will they win this year?

vs Ravens

Not looking for them brownies.
 
Week 13 Recap:

Jimmy Garoppolo makes the start and SF Gets the win over Chicago 15-14
Miami 35-9 over Denver. What happened to that Denver Defense? Drake ran for 120 yards on the ground and Cutler threw for 2 TD's.
Packers get the W at home vs Tampa Bay. Both teams had 100 yr rushers, and had a Turnover, but it was a grit in OT for GB to get the TD and win.
Jets stun the Chiefs. Alex smith threw for 4 TD's and almost 400 yards (Tyreek hill with 185 receiving), but both teams put up a lot of firepower on offense.
Jax took care of business vs Indy 30-10. Bortles with 300 yards through the air sealed the deal and never game Indy a chance. Brisset's 2 picks did not help.
Baltimore 44-20. A pick 6 and a great performance by Flacco paved the way for a dominating win.
Tom brady and the Pats head to Buffalo and take care of business. New England crushed the ground game, and Tyrod got hurt and Peterman entered.
Mariota and Henry put it on the Texans 24-13. Almost 200 yards on the ground let Tennessee control the game.
Vikings continue to look strong. They went into ATL and came away with a W. Keenum threw for 2 TD's . A TD early in the 4th and Atlanta could not answer to come back and win.
Browns fall again to stay winless vs the Chargers. 19-10 . Rivers threw for almost 350 and a TD by torching that defense.
Rams move to 9-3 and take care of the Cardinals. Gabberts 2 picks really hurt the cardinals. (Especially the pick 6)
Brees , Ingram and Kamara the 3 headed dragon in New Orleans rolls past Carolina. Carolina had 3 fumbles (1 lost) . Can't have that and expect to beat the high powered Saints.

Predictions:

Philly vs Seattle
Philly - 31
Seattle - 14

Pitt vs Bengals
Pitt - 28
Bengals - 13

I said we would split on the West Coast with an L to the Hawks, but didn't expect this bad of a game. I hated their decision to fly out to SEA so late in the week, especially since they were already planning on staying in between games. ...Pederson continues to call some of the worst 1st half game plans I've ever seen. Why he avoided working the sideline early on is beyond me. The Wentz fumble sealed it IMO. People will bitch about Pedey not challenging that forward lateral, and rightfully so, but the kid can't lose that ball....just go down.

Not scared of the Vikings...at this point in the season, you need an Elite QB to beat the Birds...Brees and Wilson are in leagues of their own.
 
The Giants are cleaning house.
 
Eagles TE Ertz has a head injury
Rodgers is back to practicing with scout team
Titans put DE DaQuan Jones on IR with torn biceps
Tyrod Taylor day-to-day with bruised patellar tendon
Ravens CB Jimmy Smith suspended 4 games for PED violation
Eli Manning gets QB job back after Ben McAdoo, Jerry Reese fired
Gronk suspended 1 game for late hit.
 
Sadly, it's one game too late. If I'm Eli, I waive my trade clause and demand a trade. **** em, imo. Management showed they have no loyalty to you, why show loyalty back. "It's a business"
Yeah, it was all handled rather poorly. Maybe if there was some stud rookie that could spark the team, maybe... Maybe... But f**king Geno Smith? What a slap to the face.

FWIW, Geno was brought in as McAdoo's guy. McAdoo has been trying to bench Eli since preseason. Heavy criticism of Eli, but says Flowers "did some good things" or "he's young and improving" despite giving up 73947393 sacks/pressures a game. The only reason Flowers box score looks so good rn is bc Eli is getting rid of the ball in .2 seconds because he's terrified to hold onto it longer. Kid is garbage.

I hope our new GM trades back 2-3 times. Pick up some extra 2nd and 3rds. Get Baker Mayfield, a couple OL, RB, and ILB.
 
That was such an ugly win... wow....
What a comeback
I didn't like all of the helmet to helmet hits on both sides, but it was a heck of a comeback. Finding ways to win is a trademark of great teams. Pittsburgh has a shot at all of the marbles this year.
 
That is a trademark of the bengals and steelers game.

No kidding. Admittedly, it was kind of nice watching Burfict getting a big ol' slice of karma pie.
