NFL

I have not watched many ball games this year, but my buddy (from Niagara) and I watched this one at the bar today.

I actually love snow football, just great stuff.

He was allowed to come back into the game, then spit up blood and was taken out. NFL is fringe sport in 20 years. Savage will be dead by then.

 

[torontoduke]

That is fucked.

Sports fans are the worst

So Panther fans, Dave Gettleman has emerged as the favorite for the Giants GM position- what should I be expecting? and how is the Panthers DC because that's who he would probably suggest for the Giant owners to hire as HC.

I posted a tweet about Gettleman somewhere above. You can see Steve Smith’s thoughts up there.

Wentz done for sure now.

Wentz done for sure now.

All coming together for Aaron.

Btw Browns had a 98.2 win probability with 3 minutes left.

extremely frustrating how hard the panthers make it on themselves.

cam missing 2-3 easy check downs on 3rd down that would have iced the game about killed me. expecting this to get resolved as Olsen gets healthier.

our safeties are a nightmare. at least in previous seasons you could count on Coleman and Davis to be a guaranteed tackles.

overall health, defensive line, and running game are biggest sources of optimism entering the stretch.

Vegas line out, it's Carolina -2.5

We're fucked, they know he's coming back. Would be closer to CAR -9 or -10 if he wasn't gonna play. Goddamn you, Bucs and Browns.

Wentz done for sure now.

Another easy Super Bowl for the Patriots. Yay.

 

[DurhamSon]

This seems unsustainable. Without actually knowing any objective stats on this, i'm going to guess the odds of at least one instance of "sexual liberties" taken by adulated big-ego mega athletes is probably much much higher than the general population. If every jock now on TV with at least one controversy from his past is exposed, there won't be any shows left.

We're fucked, they know he's coming back. Would be closer to CAR -9 or -10 if he wasn't gonna play. Goddamn you, Bucs and Browns.

...and suddenly today, after his alledged bone re-scan, the line has jumped to CAR -6 or CAR -7. Maybe he got bad news.

Very interesting

Rodgers playing. YAY

 

[Devilsforlife]

We now staring a 10-6 season with no playoff berth straight in the face. This would be an absolute worse case scenario. Good enough record to retain Ron/Shula, without even a loss in the wildcard round to show for it.

Only hope is if TD breaks Rodgers like he did Romo in 2015.

 

[DurhamSon]

If he's playing we better fucking be trying to "Romo" him in the first quarter. After watching teams the last three years tee off on Cam's head with no flags I couldn't give a rat fuck about playing rough against opposing QBs

If we're not sending the Blitz like we did at the end of the Minny game and instead play that sackless soft zone pussyboat shit, i'm gonna hurl my remote at the television.
