Splathew Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I think the Chiefs finally have a franchise QB. They have had some solid to good QB's over the years but never had a QB they drafted become the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners continue with their red zone woes. Yeah, the TD was a thing of beauty. And that was probably the hardest test that could've been put in front of him to start the season. I think the 49ers can compete for the divisional win. 9 minutes ago, majob said: His replacement played well but you'll have people whispering that this probably wouldn't have happened if they had Bell. Not to downplay the Browns efforts, they played hard, almost desperately, so that helped but Tyrod got greedy with the last pass before OT, should have just gone for the short throw and made the try. Jimmy G's hype was bound to deflate eventually but Cousins looked sloppy there. Of course, I'm hoping you guys lose, nothing personal bruh, it's just the division. Barr can feel free to knock Rodgers out for the season again though Nah, we need Rodgers to stay upright so Packers fans can stop using that as an excuse for losing games.

Only SB champ Len Dawson has a playoff win outside of that group. KC is loaded with talent..........but have had, over the years, a reputation for fading in the stretch. Perhaps this year will be different? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsychicVibe Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Blaine Gabbert just threw an ugly interception as Mariotta is out with an elbow injury. Dolphins 24-17 with 5:00 left and with ball in field goal range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidmarkgn Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Penalties at the worst possible times - check Kicker misses a FG (IN DENVER!!) and they lose by 3 - check Ifedi on his ass every play and the O-line allows 6 sacks - check Ladies and gentleman...

Conker Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Well it might be just the first game but Adrian Peterson might be back after a solid performance for the Redskins in there win 26carries 96yrs 1td. And a nice Return for Andrew Luck even in defeat 39-53 319yrds 2tds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Browns probably just helped him get the contract he wanted. I have the contrarian point of view, that Le'Veon Bell is hurting his market value with his holdout. He's not going to get more money this year -- he can't get more money this year unless Pittsburgh rescinds the franchise tag at this point and there's no reason for the Steelers to do so. And there are probably teams and GMs out there that are looking at what the Pittsburgh locker room is going through and don't want the headache on their teams. He'll still get paid as an Unrestricted Free Agent this coming offseason. Probably. But I don't think he's inflating his market value by sitting out, especially considering how Running Backs don't get paid a whole heck of a lot anymore, relatively speaking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners continue with their red zone woes. This was the first time I've seen Jimmy G play a full game and he looks like a legit QB and I can see why the Niners went after him. I'd say this game he had channeled Clint Eastwood with Good, Bad, and Ugly. He threw some damn good balls and used his secondary options quite well. Bad was the drops by a few and a couple overthrows, esp to Kittle deep as well as in the end zone. Ugly was the Hughes pick six and Smith INT in the final drive. The Rhodes pick can be excused as a hell of a play by X. I think 49ers are legit though, they impressed me today. Bummer they lost McKinnon. - In the battle of ex-Seahawks, I'd say it was a push between Richardson and Sherman. Richardson would've won, until he got the dumb roughing QB penalty on third and long.

Even a one-legged Rodgers, when at home, is a tough guy to beat. Definitely one of the best season opening games I think I've seen. (I say I think because my memory is shitty and by tomorrow I'll likely have forgotten this game lmfao.) ------------------------------------- All in all though. I have to wonder how much damage Rodgers does to his body that other QBs don't seem to do. I have a very limited viewing of the games each week and know next to nothing compared to everyone here, but it seems like Rodgers plays with injuries more than others.

Beyondthegrave07 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I've been sick all weekend and didn't really get to enjoy a lot of football. The colts lost and had every opportunity to win it, but a few crucial mistakes led to the L. On the bright side, Luck played well, but is still taking too many hits. My fantasy football team also scored 172 points thanks to Michael Thomas and Philip Rivers leading the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply too hard to build an effective roster as a whole when you've given up that volume of high picks. Chicago may be able to balance it for a year or two if Mitchell Trubisky can live up to his draft status and quickly, but effective NFL rosters require a constant infusion and re-infusion of good, cheap, young talent, and Chicago is going to have a difficult time doing that without those draft picks. If Trubisky is good, Chicago will have issues when it's time to pay him the same way Seattle has watched their depth and talent erode once Russell Wilson had to get paid. If Trubisky isn't good, Chicago will have issues in that area without much of a chance to find a cheap replacement who is any good and could be right back on the Mike Glennon carousel.
