Week 7 NFL General Discussion

[RollerColt]

High scoring game tonight for Thursday Night Football. Dalton being his usual self with great throws mixed with really bad decisions. Meanwhile Hot Rod was running hot until he just missed an extra point. 

LMAO was that back to back pick sixes for Dalton? 

[RollerColt]

Saints imploding for the final like 3 minutes of the first half.

I picked the Cards in our thread but the Saints look like dog doo.

So weird being a Bengals fan watching Dalton. At the start of games it's like a fond reminiscence, and then the picks start and you realize why he's no longer with the team.

Kinda like Blankenship's night.

Exactly! It's endearing at first in a "hey good for you buddy!" sort of way, and then they screw up and you go, "oh yeah there's the guy I remember..."

[RollerColt]

So… Dalton now has 3 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. The Saints benched Winston so they could play Winston.

Always forget about prime time or night games with Andy Dalton and Kirk Cousins. It is weird how the night games bring out the worst in them.

Right? It brought back a flood of memories watching him play in person at Paul Brown Stadium. He would have huge wow moments with that cannon of an arm, he'd be dealing the ball out to multiple receivers all over the place, making NFL All Pro throws to the sidelines, be driving down the field, and then out of nowhere he'd throw a horrible pick across the middle. It was always his weakness and apparently still is...

Only one game this week where both teams have a winning record. Parity or mediocrity? 

 

 (Colts 3-2-1 vs Titans 3-2)

Jets (4-2) vs Broncos (2-4)

Seahawks (3-3) vs Chargers )4-2)

Chiefs (4-2) vs 49ers (3-3)

With the exception of the Bills the AFC is wide open. Lots of football yet to be played so it's going to be a dog fight all season.

Good to see you again! Yes, I think every game will be important moving forward.

True. From an AFC South point of view, 5 division games will be done for the Colts. Based on whether they win it or not, they’d be fighting for the division or a wild card after the Titans game, after just 7 games.

[NFLfan]

OMG. The Giants won their 6th game.

 

Time runs out with the Jags receiver at the Giants 1 or 2 yard line. That was close. It reminds me of when the Titans lost to the Rams in the Super Bowl when Mike Jones?? stopped the Titans receiver at the one-yard line to win the SB. (I hope I am remembering it right. Lol.)

[NFLfan]

I'm watching Jets @ Broncos. Jets are up 7-0. 

 

Is Russell Wilson injured? I see Rypien as the starting QB.

Yes RW has hamstring injury and was asked to sit

[RollerColt]

49ers up 10-0 early. Means nothing against Mahomes and Reid of course, but still, Jimmy and the offense looking pretty good. 

[Gramz]

Panthers 21 Tampa 3

[teganslaw]

LOL at the Panthers winning 21-3. I know that the Colts also lost, but there is some satisfaction in seeing Brady not playing well.

Yep. And the starting QB was our very own PJ Walker lol.

[Gramz]

Great battle between QBs right now with KC and SF.

 

Fun to watch!

[NFLfan]

Denver fans will not be happy if the Broncos lose this to the Jets.  They have a chance with 53 seconds left. Jets up 16-9. Denver is at mid-field.

Mahomes is a treat to watch like Josh Allen. Jimmy G has a great floor but limited ceiling when it comes to a shootout

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Kind of fun to see Bucs fall off a cliff. 

[NFLfan]

Who will be the starting QB for the Dolphins tonight? Tua or Teddy? 

 

Edit:

Never mind... I see Tua practicing with teammates.

I think we should be rooting for Steelers because they are not good and don’t need dolphins getting hot.

Crazy.. did they really lose alot? I know the offensive line was busted. But the defense?

When Brady retired I was like he got out at the right time the bucs look to have a brutal schedule... Then he comes back lol ain't getting much better next week

They have a ton of oline injuries. But Brady should of stayed retired lol.

Colts need to take care of their AFC games coming up vs Patriots and Raiders both on the road before worrying about rooting interests.

Last time he was 3-4, he missed the playoffs in 2002. Brady is in the same boat as the Colts - winning the division is most important for getting into the playoffs.

 

Playing AFC North, NFC West, Chiefs and Packers was a schedule I didn’t think was favorable for Brady to come back to.
 

Outside the pandemic year without crowds, he hasn’t gone to a SB without a bye week in his life. Plus, with 7 teams in the playoffs, he has to get the #1 seed. So far it’s been brutal.

That's what I thought too when he retired I was like dang he got out in time.. but nah.. they still have

49ers

Cards (looked a little better with dhop)

Hawks (have looked better than expected)

Ravens

Bengals

Browns

They are just lucky they play in the worst division in football lol

And yet they couldn’t beat the worst team in the worst division in football. I’m not happy with the Colts situation, but Bucs fans have to be distraught with how their season is going.

Brady* has the most charmed life of any player I've ever seen. That's but one example. lol @ losing to the Panthers who beat them without McCaffrey and played with like their 10th string QB. But the Bucs be back, count on it.  Brady* is like a bad cold, you can't get rid of him

 

Generally it's been a weird year. KC and BUF are as expected and that's about the only thing that has made sense so far. Everyone thought the AFC West would be so great, but so far only KC has produced. The Seahawks are looking solid with Geno Smith who's playing well at QB? Seriously? This was supposed to be a rebuilding year to say the least. The Rams who people thought could challenge for a repeat title are a complete joke. The Colts...we know that story. etc etc 

 

[Two_pound]

Just finished watching the steelers-dolphins, anyone who thinks Reich is bad coach should have been watching Mcdaniels of the dolphins. He kept the steelers in that game from the middle of the second quarter to the end. On a side note I lost count of how many tackles the steeler offensive line had tonight, they got away with it all night so expect the same when we play them in November.

[jonjon]

Did not see the game but - Dolphins appear to be in trouble. I thought with Tua back they would be "back." Barely beating the Steelers? Wow.

The Phins looked like they were gonna walk away with that one.. then just stopped playing.. it was weird. 

[RollerColt]

The Bengals offense finally woke up this season. 

 

Burrow: 32/42 | 481 yds | 3 tds | 0 ints | 20 yds rush | 1 rush td

Boyd: 8 rec | 155 yds | 1 td

Chase: 8 rec | 130 yds | 2 tds

Higgins 5 rec| 93 yds | 0 tds

 

Burrow had over 40 fantasy points for me this week and Chase got me over 30!
