Jay Gruden cooked at Skins HC
VERY predictable.

Pete Carroll giving the rams 10 yard cushions all the way down the field
Did he know a FG would sink them? Good grief

Carroll does done strange ****. The defence is awful. At least Carson seems to be over his fumbles, for now.

Anyone else watching this clinic happening today?!?

I was watching... what an amazing **** cable the Browns and Baker laid down today.
Nick Bosa absolutely dominated that game

[Matt]

Mahomes doing, well, mahomes things. WOW

[summitone77]

Bosa was an animal.
I loved the flag planting celebration!

And that side arm pass from Mahomes...wow!!!

[Northern Raider]

Niners roll the Rams. Starting to look like the real deal now. Them and the Pats only unbeaten teams.

....and Dolphins 'won' the Tuabowl

[Matt]

Talk about kicking a bloke when he is down... Stupid Cowboys! How do you lose to the Jets?!?!?

Another great day for my fantasy team.

Getting behind the Chargers to roll the Steelers now.

Not a great start!!!

Ugly game for the Eagles too, just got waffle stomped on the road to Mini.
Those Eagles corners are the sorriest bunch of ***** ive ever seen

Unless the eagles find a pass rush and get some help at corner, they're absolutely toast

Bit late seeing it, but Thomas' hit on Rudolph was pretty nasty.

[Matt]

HOLY KARP!
Rams have taken Ramsey for 2 1st Rd picks and a 4th, 2020 1st and 2021 1st and 4th.

[Northern Raider]

Huge deal. I guess it could be regarded as a good result for both teams. Jags pick up some great draft collateral for a player that wanted out. Rams get the too shelf corner they desperately needed.

[Botman]

I dont think this solves the problems for the Rams
They've actually been ok on defence... Ramsey is going to fix the issues with the OL, it's not going to magically make Gurley's knee OK, and it's not going to stop NFL Defensive coordinators from taking away the outside zone running game, and the play action off that and forcing Goff into being a drop back passer, which he is not good enough to do

I think this is a good result for the Jags. I think these picks could be closer to middle of round 1 than back end of round 1

[Matt]

Rams sign Ramsey then send Peter's to Baltimore for LB Kenny Young ... WHY?!?

[reptar]

Anyone watch the Redskins @ Dolphins game? Man, it's BAD

[Matt]

nope, i was expecting it to be bad

[reptar]

Ended with an exciting finish, Dolphins heading to a 0 win season

[Matt]

HOW 'BOUT DEM COWBOYS!!!

Hey @Pigman?

Looks like we ambushed you... even if it was our building. Who was the coach that guaranteed victory???

[Matt]

My step brother is a Ravens fan...
He was going nutz when Peters got the pick 6.
Jackson did some freaky things with his legs, Im not going to say he isnt Michael Vick, but certainly has some flashes of that.

[Botman]

This eagles team lacks play makers on the outside, a consistent pass rush, has no talent at LB, and the worst bunch of corners I’ve ever laid eyes on

When a team shows you who they are, believe it. This a a stinky 7-9 eagles teams

Lot of work to be done here.
Re: the Pederson stuff, it’s fascinating the reaction to that. He didn’t guarantee victory. He just said they’d win, which isn’t exactly some bold statement

I dunno, if the coach isn’t confident of getting wins you should fire his **** haha

And btw, that coach has a super bowl ring. So you stick with your staff and I’ll hang with mine, @Matt

Fair call.
TBH, last wks Cowboys were banged up, and played like it.
The wk before... who the F knows?!?!?
This wk they looked like the team from the first 3 wks.

PS. Since when were you botman?

[Botman]

I think the Cowboys just beat up on bad teams, and are going to struggle against good ones because of the QB-HC combo.
Unfortunately for reasons outlined above, this philly team appears very much to be a "bad" team

If you cant cover, you cant rush the passer and you dont have play makers on the outside and your running game is ordinary... well, that's a bad football team, regardless of what else is around it.

NFC East is back to being a dumpster.

I think Dallas have a team capable of causing some havok, it's a very well rounded squad and well set up to support it's QB and HC deficiency... The eagles have a QB capable of dragging a team kicking and screaming to a title but he's got to play better and those around him have to help him... but these are perfect situation scenarios

What the play offs require is for a team to be able to win in multiple ways... and i dont see either of these NFCE teams capable of that. It probably helps that the NFC in general is a little stinky right now, GB, SF and Saints look the pick of the litter, but none of those teams are unbeatable.

Hard to imagine those teams beating either the Pats or Chiefs, injuries being equal... Though the Packers are terrifying if they've clicked on offence.

[gerg]

Just watched the highlights from the Giants game. Looked like the D phoned it in until the last quarter.

That first Packers TD from Rodgers was sublime.

RE: Pederson - it’s bold to claim a win in a public forum ahead of a rivalry game. Think that and say it in private all you want, but don’t provide the opposition with additional motivation and leave yourself open to having egg on your face. It was a dumb thing to say and I don’t think the reaction to it was all that surprising.

My point of view exactly.

Normally the line is 'we are trying to win a football game' (BTW, this is a Garrett staple), OR, ' it will be tough, but we are going out there to win it', OR 'this is a tough league, but these are the game you wanna win'. Don't guarantee anything.

[Matt]

9ers are making a run for a SB. Trading for Emmanuel Sanders + 5th, for a 3rd and 4th (Im guessing 2020 draft)

[Matt]

Cowboys trade a 2021 7th for Michael Bennett DE of Patriots. The 7th can become a 6th - im guessing performance based.
