    Well that’ll remind me not to stay up to watch the eagles in the early hours. That was garbage from the eagles.

    AJ brown only for the huge cap hit, id cut him. He’s acting like **** child. Hurts is not playing to the level he can, and the oline is either old or playing hurt.

    Landon Dickerson is not fit, and cam jurgens back is at him. Lane Johnson is injured more and more and Matt Pryor was an embarrassment when he replaced him a few weeks ago so O line depth isn’t there.


    The team as a whole is indisciplined and gives the refs the reason to throw flags. we also found the worst kick returner in the league.

    Skattebo was incredible. His college performances illustrated how good he was. Dart was good too.

    Glenn must be looking to get fired going by the play calling to end the half



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 355 ✭✭reaction238


    Running down the clock and prevent a turnover at all cost.

    The fake punt was good. Woke me up a little.

    Tonight's game is going to be a cracker. 10-6 to the Lions early in the second quarter, Chiefs missed a PAT.

    Lions messed up.in a goal to go earlier.

    Apparently if a QB takes his place under center he has to take a step back and pause before he becomes a receiver. Montgomery took the snap and passed to Goff who got in but it was called back.

    First half in Washington has been entertaining stuff. Bears have had their best running game of the year by far, and two turnovers, also have been good stopping the run until this last drive. Washington starting to find their rhythm a bit more but at the moment it could go either way

    DAAAAAAA BEEEEEAAAAAARSSSSSS

    Both teams made a pile of mistakes all day, but Daniels made a bad handoff in the rain to give up their third turnover and we had a very good final drive to drain the clock while moving the ball and seeing up our backup kicker to sneak the win. Ugly stuff but that's a win against a really good team. NFC North is absolutely stacked.

    Eagle Eye you had been praising the bears before the season started and I was a bit skeptical, with the first two games seeming to confirm my worst fears. But while we still make loads of mistakes, especially giving up dumb penalties, we are improving and getting a lot tighter offensively. Most improved team in the NFL since week 2 with the exception of the Patriots.

     "NFC North is absolutely stacked"

    I'd almost change that to entire NFC.

    West has 3 very good teams, South has at least 2 (and the Panthers appear to be upward as well), East has Eagles obviously, Commanders possibly below last year, Dallas with a great offence and NYG who may have something in Jaxson Dart.

    Entire conference seems objectively better than AFC at the moment. Must try root out the head to head score at some stage.

    A few thoughts,

    I always thought that Daniel Jones was holding back the Giants buts it's now looking like they were holding him back.

    Right now he's a legit MVP candidate.

    I cannot believe that my Patriots are leading the AFC East. Drake Mate is looking like a really good QB, another potential MVP candidate. 5th in passing yards, 4th in QB rating.

    Javonte Williams was stuck at Denver never really getting an opportunity to get back to where he was in his rookie season. He goes to Dallas and is one of the best backs in the league. Rico Dowdle gets his chance due to injuries at Carolina and is tearing it up.

    You couldn't have predicted any of those things.

    My favourite player to watch in the NFL this season is Baker Mayfield. He just never gives up, he's all action all the time. He's just pure entertainment.

    Never seen a start to the season like it, with no team way ahead of anyone else yet.

    Like my Colts could genuinely be SB contenders in the current environment with the way they are playing.

    No.1 seeds in AFC baby

    Results from this week in particular were crazy. A lot of teams will be looking to see when their Bye week is I'd say, because there are definitely a lot of teams who will need to address some serious issues for the second half of the season.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,156 ✭✭✭Liamalone


    Costly extra point miss by the young Irish kicker McAtamney ended up costing the Giants. It left them only having a 2pt lead instead of 3 with about 38secs on the clock - Broncos charged up the field and got a field goal to win 33-32!

    Giants conceded all 33pts in the 4th and were 19-0 up so tough tiddy but feel sorry for the young lad from Swatragh which is about 20 miles from here.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 42,230 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    These Falcons and all the talent on offense. So many questionable play calls, it's just unreal. 2nd and 4, two pass attempts when you have one of the best running backs in the league.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 407 ✭✭rebelyell99


    great win for the broncos wasn’t looking good for 3 quarters .Dart throwing the pick was the turning point ,refs did their best to give it to the giants at the end no way you can throw that flag there .

    Next week against Dallas should be another cracker .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 355 ✭✭reaction238


    He shouldn't have missed the kicks. But they lost because they conceded 33 points in the final 5 minutes. I hope he's not used as a scape goat.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 299 ✭✭ipitydafool


    Unfortunately this is New York sports fans we are talking about and he also missed an extra point earlier in the game so don't think we will be seeing him again for the Giants as they have Younghoe Koo on their practise squad. Daboll will definitely throw him under the bus even though it was a complete collapse and cock up by the Giants.

    Reminder this is early kick-off weekend for us with the clocks going back. Sunday games at 17:00 and 20:15/25.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 42,230 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Vikings were awful last night. QB is by far the biggest issue for them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,740 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08


    The refusal to pull Carson wentz was stupidity at best, negligence at worst.

    Horrific injury to Cam Skattebo's ankle during the Eagles game. Far more than just a dislocation.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 42,230 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Awful owner hires crap coach for stacked squad and that's how you get beat by a 1-6 team. Blank and Raheem Morris are the owner and coach I'm referring to.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,769 ✭✭✭windy shepard henderson


    thats a terrible result , only 45 yards rushing against one of the worst defences in the league tells the story



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 485 ✭✭Tom1991


    Disgusting when it went up on redzone looked like the sock was the only thing holding it together



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,769 ✭✭✭windy shepard henderson


    as a jets fan it just goes to show how toxic the enverimont in new york was last year when you see who easy life is for rodgers is at the steelers this year

    the jets finally got the best out of breece hall today , after 3 years in trying ,

    I think the end has come for McDaniel in Miami. A crowd that rarely boos was at it for a lot of the night.

    I don't think the GM was responsible for the calamity happening on the field.

    Anyone else watching 49ers @ Giants game on sky sports? The audio is horrendous, you can barely hear the crowd and ref announcements.

    I've confirmed this is a sky sports issue by switching to an online stream and the sound is perfect.
