In the past few weeks I've seen 5-6 TEXT BOOK PI penalties that wasn't called on the field, then when reviewed in NY, wasn't called there either. So why have this pass interference replay rule? Don't even wait for the off-season, ditch it now. No one knows what's going on, not the coaches, not the on-field officials, not NY, no one. It's making the game look stupid, and I hate to say it making it look like they have 'favorites'.

In the Jets-Cowboys game they called a penalty on 6 straight plays. A couple were absolutely NOT penalties.

The NFL has a big problem. The integrity of the game is taking a hit, the pace of the games suck, sometimes they're unwatchable.

Bad officiating costs the lions the game. Worked in my favor Sunday but it is getting a little ridiculous.

I read a few tweets on that earlier. Sounds like the calls were blatantly wrong, and they definitely swung the game toward GB.

I find it harder and harder to watch.

I turn on a game, but most of the time now I find myself flipping around the channels looking for something else to watch.

The NFL is beginning to remind me f basketball where the Refs have WAY too much power on the game's outcome.

In basketball 1 time it's traveling, the next time it's not.. 1 time a player's head is taken off while he's driving to the basket and it's no foul, the next time someone sneezes on a player and it's a foul. The NFL is becoming the NBA.

I'm 100% reading a book most of the time when I watch the NFL now. The delays, increased flags and ad breaks have just made it a long drawn out affair and then you add to that the lack of depth in the QB position. Patriots are 6 games in and It's been so boring and routine.
 
The odds of Chiefs ending higher than the Patriots just got really really really unlikely. During the game with the Broncos, about 5 minutes into the second quarter, the most impressive weapon of the Chiefs, quarterback Mahomes went down with what looks like a knee injury. He has been ruled out for the remainder of this match and who knows how many more. Moore has taken over at the helm of the Chiefs offense.

The Evil Sithlord Bill B. will be sitting in his office at the New England Death Star (aka Foxborough) and he will have a hint of a smile on his face.
 
swag ... or swagger?
redskins caucasian shirt.webp
 
I all my years of watching football I can't remember seeing a QB play like Flacco did tonight. He oozed not giving a ****, lazy, uninspired, just give me my paycheck attitude..No fire, he looked like he gave up...

What were the Broncos thinking?

Nah, funny but he got the wrong name below the white face, it should have been more like cracker or whitey. Caucasian is too nice as it is not a derogatory word and redskin has never been the appropriate term to identify Native Americans.

It may not be the most popular choice but get Kaepernick and dump that Flacco because he is all kinds of terrible.

Kaepernick is radioactive, plus he's been away from the game for too long.

Several Native American high schools use the Redskins name, and in the most recent poll 90% of Native Americans had no problem with it.

LOL!

At this point, they might not make the playoffs.

9-11 wins, assuming Mahomes misses only 4 games.

If he misses the rest of the reason: 8 wins max.

Patriots are in really good shape despite all their injuries.

Ravens - Only would fear them if they were playing @ home in the playoffs. Doubtful they have a better record than the Patriots.

Texans - One team I could see the Patriots beating on the road by double-digit points. They don't play well in playoff games.

Bills - One team I would fear the most because they don't rely on a great passing game. If they could land a WR and Josh Allen starts improving, I would be concerned.

Its literally a non issue raised every once in while by people to remind us how 'woke' they are. Meanwhile...in their wokeness, not a one of them have ever demonstrated the first sign of life where ****s are concerned regarding the plight of the American Indian on the reservations, so their wokeness, like their opinion about a sports team nickname...is worth precisely dick.

their offense without Mahomes against a decent team will be not that great. Their bye week is week 12. That is still 4 games away. And they got the Packers next week, the Vikings the week after that, the week after that the Titans and the last week before their bye week is at the Chargers.

Coming back from that will be a real problem because after that they have a date with the Raiders at home, the Patriots in Foxborough, the Broncos at home, away to the Chicago bears and home against the Chargers.

At the moment they are 5 and 2. The Packers could win, the Vikings can win, the Titans will be a victory and the Chargers will likely be a defeat. So with a little bit of bad luck they will be 6 and 5 when the bye week comes. After the bye week they will loose at least 2 of those games so I think at best they will be 11-5 or 10-6. Which will not get them the home advantage all through they play offs.

As a Broncos fan I would support bringing in Kaepernik at this point. Its a cant lose scenario. Worse case scenario he sucks (but then, so does Flacco) and the team gets props for bringing in CK and giving him a shot. Ive said the same about any team with a losing record. Worst case scenario you sell some extra tickets. BEST case scenario, he shocks the world and leads you to the playoffs.

KC will lose because of their defense, regardless if Mahome's is healthy or not.

23rd in the league overall.

Mahomes can mask the terrible performance of their defense from time to time, without him the defense is going to get exposed more and more.
 
Can't believe the Saints actually went into Chicago and won. I think this says more about the Bears lack of offense than anything though.
 
Lol can't believe the Seahawks couldn't stop Lamar Jackson. Try putting a spy on Jackson, he's a running qb for goodness sakes.

In fairness to Seattle Lamar is lighting up a lot of teams this year.
