    Again with only 3 games in the sunday evening slot, wtf nfl


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,644 ✭✭✭D9Male


    Peculiar choice of game by Sky Sports 2 on the Sunday 6pm slot. That would have been my 6th or 7th choice.

    Absolutely massive game for Chip in New York. A loss and the knives are out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,857 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08


    Gonna be an interesting week for the cowboys, if the defence can play like they did Sunday we might have a shot Sunday between randle Williams and escobar, but I genuinely think Dan Baileys leg will be the only hope we have.

    Has it always been this way ?

    Prior to RedZone days I only ever watched one game at a time obviously so I was not as aware of what other games were on during that slot.

    9pm is the perfect time for me to sit down and watch RedZone properly and its a pain that there are so few games compared to the 6pm slot.

    I think I'll give Godell a shout about it.

    McCowan back in, Manziel out for Cleveland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,644 ✭✭✭D9Male


    I am surprised about that. It is what I would do, but I am surprised.

    So what you're saying is Cleveland are going to lose

    Our season starts this weekend!!

    McCowan back in, Manziel out for Cleveland.

    In fairness, he's a pretty world class gym teacher.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,893 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    he was poor against the Titans, he had 2 long bombs which he got because of terrible coverage with our 3rd CB.

    Taking out those 2 throws

    he was 6 from 13 for 80 yards

    He wasnt that good


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭jack presley


    Kam Chancellor going back to work today too (probably with his tail between his legs)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭TheDoctor


    He'll get his fines waived, they'll discuss about a pay rise next year and he'll come back playing.
    No cap space left for the Seahawks this year.

    Am I mad going for the Titans to beat the Colts? Part of me think their slide this year (and the Titans revival) are being overblown, which is how people tend to react to the first game or two of the season. Maybe the Colts aren't as bad and the Titans aren't as good as it's all looked up to now...but I'm still going for Tennessee...

    thinking the same thing. The Colts looked really bad Monday night and Luck was under constant pressure forcing him to make plenty of bad decisions. The Titans front seven are no slouches, I expect him to be under a lot of pressure again Sunday. It'll be interesting to see how he deals with it. Vonte Davis left with a suspected concussion, so if he misses Sunday the Colts will have a very depleted secondary

    Titans D will no doubt put him under pressure, Casey, Morgan an Orakpo will cause problems, Al Woods had a very good game at NT and destroyed Alex Mack a few times.

    The Titans problems will come if McCourty isnt available, the Colts will likely stick TY on Sensabaugh and that isn't going to end well.

    On a titans offense pov, the O-line is a bit of a mess similar to the colts however we are probably a bit better in the run blocking game.

    I expect to see Hunter and DGB on the outside catching balls, the CBs are small..

    Kam Chancellor going back to work today too (probably with his tail between his legs)

    The chance of a Bears win just went from 0% to 0%.

    The chance of a shut out just went from 50% to 75- 80%.

    (Bears fan:mad:)

    It'll be grand. When they put all their resources into stopping the run, it'll be Pickles' time to shine, throwing endless majestic TD passes to our spectacular wide receivers against that crappy Seahawks secondary.

    Clausen says R-E-L-A-X.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭TheDoctor


    Bears fans, pre QB injury, you couldn't have picked a better time to play us.

    3rd straight losses (incl SB 49), Kam missing, offence not clicking.

    Yeah but Kam is back, we have a D made up almost entirely of guys playing out of position or who are just bad players, so if your O needs some confidence, this should do the trick. We are, in fact, exactly the game the hawks need this week to take out some frustration over their poor start. It'll be a massacre, plain and simple.

    Now, I think people are completely underestimating the Bears this year, I think we'll be a better team than people expect, but this week will not be a good example of it. If we keep the gap below 20 points I'd be, frankly, amazed.

    Stafford is supposed to be badly banged up and could miss the Broncos game (not that it will make any real difference)

    Indeed it might be a good idea for the Lions to sit Stafford - he is a tough sob but the Broncos defence will hammer him around the pitch if he is playing.

    He participated in full practice today, so its a positive indication that he'll play.
    Although that doesn't inspire me with any hope of a win this weekend. The O-line is a mess, which has left Stafford taking a battering for the last two weeks & the defence has looked lost without Levy. (he didn't practice today).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,644 ✭✭✭D9Male


    I have said it before, and I will say it again. Bengals are going to go deep this season. Dalton has grown up, has some good weapons and is going to absolutely school the Ravens secondary on Sunday.

    Cinicnatti have the defence to snuffle out the Ravens. Ravens have a good offence, I just think Bengals can do it.

    The Dalton era is beginning.

    Dalton, though a solid QB, is not about to, nor will he ever have an era tbh
