    Very worrying from Chiefs POV yet again today. Another top team absolutely pissed through them. Titans could've scored a lot more if they wanted to you felt. Chiefs fall to 3-4. They will most likely make the playoffs but it's hard to see any realistic aspirations for them past that. Only positive is that there is still 10+ games to get things right, however I wouldn't be hopeful for them. Raw materials just not there.

    Also, it's very enjoyable to watch Tyreek Hill struggle. Don't want to get a ban for personal abuse but I thoroughly enjoyed some of his plays tonight. He shouldn't be in the league for the things he's done. Was only showing the missus his wiki page and you'd forget how horrific some of the stuff that he's been "accused" of is.

    They added another game to the season just to prolong my misery.

    Down 3 TDs after 1Q. Shoot me.

    Surely that is oroty settled already for Chase. Insane game.

    Why are they keeping Fields in here? To learn? He has learned all he needs to learn about what being sacked over and over again is like, this is just going to destroy him. I predicted an annihilation but this is getting into Trestman territory and hopefully it puts firings back on the table. Embarrassing and disheartening to watch, and the players have visibly quit. What a **** organisation the bears are.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,111 ✭✭✭Christy42


    I think I have been on the record as saying rookies should learn at game speed but that should be if you can give a half a second and scheme open receivers. The Bears are not capable of it. Haven't watched it all but Fields had a pretty nice pass into the end zone at least.

    I despise this team. This is depressing to watch.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,266 ✭✭✭✭Realt Dearg Sec


    I wanted him to play but I was very wary of the o line. But they're actually catastrophically bad. Every play on offense you're kind of waiting for things to go wrong. Keeping Fields in right now is negligent. Thinking I won't actually watch them play again until they've fired Nagy.

    Buti always say **** like that!

    Sorry to see, but in a way I'm glad we're not the only ones being embarrassed right now. Solidarity!

    Don't have a problem with Fields playing and I think it helps the case to replace the coaching staff after the season if anything. He shows flashes of what he's capable of but he's got a terrible line and embarrassingly bad play calling weighing him down like an anchor. Nagy & Lazor make a show of themselves every week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,266 ✭✭✭✭Realt Dearg Sec


    I just want him out because he's going to be injured



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,749 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    **** it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,246 ✭✭✭The_Honeybadger


    Both games played fine for me today, just tried bears @bucaneers again now and it’s playing fine without any overseas adventure

    Has it gone back to no blackout?

    Ertz on the scoresheet in his first game for the Cards.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,266 ✭✭✭✭Realt Dearg Sec


    Another interception. This is the most embarrassing performance I've seen from Chicago in many years. Easily as bad as under Trestman.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,266 ✭✭✭✭Realt Dearg Sec


    Oh cool an ejection, are there any other humiliations we can pile on here?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,749 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    The eagles had ten **** days to come up with a game plan for the raiders and this is the best we came up with ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,798 ✭✭✭Big Pussy Bonpensiero


    Both geo blocked for me. Tried a premium flight service today and still no joy. Gamepass page wouldn't even load with it. Tried on both Firefox and chrome.

    That was **** embarrassing as an eagles fan. I was planning on watching SNF due it being a bank holiday but I might just go to bed.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,246 ✭✭✭The_Honeybadger


    strange. No issue at all for me on iPhone casting to tv



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,749 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    I’ve been an eagles fans for twenty years and I can count on one hand the times I’ve been embarrassed as an eagles fan and tonight is one of them. I’m enough of a realist to understand that the eagles will lose games, but even by that logic this is embarrassing.

    Will give that a go the next day and report back. Very disappointed with today with no other real draw for the 9/9.30 games even if the Rams/Lions turned out to be the best of them.

    Rough night for football in Santa Clara, next to impossible to complete a pass play for a lot if the first half.

    Colts lead it by one point at halftime 13-12. Wentz has done nothing but had a rushing TD right at the end of the half.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,349 ✭✭✭✭Foxtrol


    Never seen a team so poor on pass interference. Teams have realised they can just lob up balls and get DPI so throw it deep on 3rd down - has happened in every game the 49ers have lost this season. Sometimes it is harsh but most times it is just stupidity.

    49ers have made a complete mess of this game. They had turnovers earlier when the weather was better but did nothing with it (should have been more from Wentz) while the Colts have made the most of their turnovers. Kyle/Jimmy have no faith in even trying get a DPI call on their 3rd downs - why I want Lance in when he's healthy. Given his running ability I think they'd be winning if he was fit and starting



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 41,990 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Penalties decided the game, 49rrs defensive backs were stupid.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,111 ✭✭✭Christy42


    Seeing reports Fields was told through the headset Bucs had 12 men on the field. Quick snapped it and threw it up for grabs in the hopes of a big play. Intercepted and Bucs only had 11 on the field.


    Whoever is on the other side of that headset has to go if that is true.

    Looking very like a ground game tonight with heavy rain forecast and two QB's you wouldn't put huge faith in. Expect Kamara to go over 100 yards tonight with no Taysum Hill to take work from him.
