Please go to College Football Forum. There are no ties in the College Football Forum or Madden Curses, which now apparently affect whole teams. :fp:

How about Miami taking 7 hours to finish a game lol!
Tyrod Taylor is a lightning rod for criticism at times. He has a weak arm and yet throws the deep ball well. Scrambles very well and makes a lot of plays with his legs but doesn't use the middle of the field. Yet look how awful Buffalo was without him. Can't believe the Bears blew the game last night. Rodgers is so freaking good. You can easily make a case that he's the greatest QB of all time. He just has to stay healthy.
Local sports radio in Detroit along with some of my co-workers are already calling for Matt Patricia's head. Seriously, people want him fired! A horrible preseason and a complete farce on Monday night has left fans super pissed. Patricia ran a tough training camp old school style and a lot of players didn't like it apparently. They looked like they quit on him already lol.
Jets players were laughing that they knew the plays of the offense (same OC Jim Bob Cooter from last year). How do you not whip up surprised on game 1? Stafford was horrible. Not sure how to blame that on the HC but it's a melt down in Detroit!
What in the hell?
Vontae Davis took himself out of today's Bills game against the Chargers and retired at halftime.
I can't even comprehend what the hell just happened.
Meanwhile, the Browns will certainly be holding tryouts for a new kicker tomorrow.
And the second week of the season and the second tie of the season as Green Bay and Minnesota fail to break their tie in OT. Two weeks of hated rivals tying each other, first Browns-Steelers and now Vikings-Packers.
And then the whole sudden announcement by the Browns on a Saturday afternoon to cut Josh Gordon come tomorrow, though it now sounds like they may trade him to San Francisco or elsewhere.
I don't even know what the hell is going on this season. We're only two weeks in and this season is already fucking nuts.

Vontae Davis was odd when he was in Miami. Being stuck on a horrible Buffalo team doesn’t help.
Dolphins in sole possession of first place!
Minny should be looking for a new kicker too as their guy went 0-3.
Lions sucking again. Life is normal.
Oakland did everything but win today. Have to wonder if they go downhill quickly from here.
I'm probably in the minority, but I don't mind ties. :dunno: If kickers could do their job, we wouldn't have them.
Well, as a Broncos fan, I'm sure not complaining when it comes to the Raiders doing everything but win. It was an ugly win, but I'll take it!Quote:

If the rest of this season is anything like these first two weeks, this season is going to be a doozy!

It does amaze me that a great Qb like Elway can’t spot QB talent.
Yeah, it's sort of frustrating the never ending headaches at QB, though how many star QBs have come out of college football only to crash and burn out of the league in three seasons or less? Or how many unknowns have come out nowhere to lead teams to division titles and super bowls? You can go with players you think will transition to the NFL well and think their skills will mesh well with the NFL and your team, but in the end, it's all a giant crap shoot for whether someone really will make the transition successfully.Quote:

But Elway has been especially bad. He should be thanking his lucky stars Brock didn't take his fat contract. And then he drafts (and cuts) Lynch. Now spends big on Keenum who had a career year and by stat tracking had the highest amount of dropped interceptions last year (luckiest NFL QB in 2017). That matters, especially for people that just look at the box scores.
Sooner blood runs deep. I actively rooted for Cleveland to win a football game the minute Baker hit the field. Baker is simply a gamer and just wins. It was like watching a completely different team when he took over. The atmosphere went from desperation to jubilation as he quickly ran them down to get a FG to end the half.
Well, got that out of the way. Will wish you the best of luck Baker, unless you are playing the Steelers, that Sooner blood only runs so deep.Hey bud-

Congrats @bakermayfield #OUDNA
I don’t see how they go back to Tyrod.
It would appear the Bills are bad at more than just football. :D

Dolphins shit the bed in New England. Team is so frustrating.
Browns blew that game. Gregg Williams is garbage. Playing soft zones at times and the non fumble of Carr on an early and stupid whistle hurt. But so did all the drops of Cleveland receivers. I thought Mayfield looked good. Poised in the pocket, moves his eyes and finds people.
I seem to recall saying something about Mahomes in the offseason thread.. What was it?

Sounds a lot like Texas Tech. Still I had to eat my crow, I never expected him to start so soon and do this well.Quote:

I saw that. Hilarious.
On a different note, not a single offensive TD in Miami Jets game. No ghosts of Marino. Just awful.
I’ll just throw a #WhoDat in here and walk away. [emoji38]

There’s a Big 12 game on MNF tonight.

Sarcasm? If not, these are NFL defenses and they get paid millions to stop NFL offenses.Quote:

What if the score was 70-0? Still no issues throwing it deep? Does sportsmanship only belong in amateur sports or are you ok if a team of 10 year olds ran up the score in a local game?
Most youth leagues up to HS have mercy rules. Not a very good comparison to a professional team that just won the Super Bowl, heavily on the backs of their defense.Quote:

So glad Miami fired Gase. Never higher than 24th in point differential in 3 years. Talent is an issue but the team under achieved and his offence was garbage. Way too conservative and his personal decisions were dumb. Didn’t even use Kenyan Drake properly. Had a massive ego and I was surprised to see so many former and current Dolphins happy with this. Jarvis Landry and Jordan Phillips weren’t surprises but Cam Wake, Frank Gore, Kenyan Drake didn’t want him back. Good riddance. Any team that hires him as an OC or HC is making a mistake. His reputation was solely based on piggybacking off Peyton success in Denver.

That one PI they missed was atrocious but even so, they had plenty of chances to win the game. Zuerlein just nailed those last two FG's.
Hoping the Chiefs hold on for some fresh blood in the Super Bowl.
Sucks Brady and the Pats are back in it. So sick of them.
Worst Super Bowl ever. Lousy half time show too.
