    Eagles turn the ball over on downs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Well at least we're not Indy.

    Edit: Ooh Bears coming back!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,206 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    How does the ball not go to McCaffrey there?

    Jimmy Graham with another TD?

    Nah, on the 1 and the a thud...

    Bears not out of it yet

    Eagles down by 10, may as well be down by 30 with how they've been this second half though. Any chance they can turn it around?

    4D chess from Patricia. Let Mitch polish this turd of a performance near the end so Nagy doesn't bench him.

    Or maybe the lions are just sh*tting the bed again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,206 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Jesus Christ

    Wentz really does need to learn when to throw the ball away, strip sacked there. Washington on the ball again

    Bears back in the ball at the 2 minute, down by 3 after Stafford throws a pick.

    I'd actually hate to be a lion's fan you know

    Nice win for Raiders. Josh Jacobs off to a flier with 3 TDs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,206 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Lions ****ting the bed here

    Penalty out of the 2 minute and then give up a 27 yard thud on the next play

    How bout them Bears

    Turn around this game ? Not a hope but some journalist that cover the team need to ask Doug Pederson what the **** is happening with the medical team and how badly conditioned the team seem to be.

    He really really does even though the O line is bad that doesn’t excuse his issues he himself has to address.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,206 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Another bottle job from the lions, Patricia is on borrowed time there.

    Apparently bears win probability was 2% earlier in the 4th, before the 3 TDs presumably :D

    Lads Danny Amendola is some man

    Holy **** he just dropped the game, wide open game winner, right into his hands, that's unforgivable.

    That drop in the end zone is sickening


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,366 ✭✭✭✭Oat23


    We didn't win that. The Lions lost it.

    Incredible. The rookie had the ball in his hands in the endzone and dropped it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,166 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    What was Swift at there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Oh my lord. How on earth did we get away with that?

    The Lions must have Mayo jerseys on underneath. Incredible bottle job.

    How do you go into the locker room and face your team and coaches after that?

    Must've seen his name in the stars to drop that one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 981 ✭✭✭Lionbacker


    Same old Lions.
    Unforgivable that blown 4th quarter leads is still continuing a season later.

    Brady in a Bucs jersey just looks wrong!

    And now..... The Old Man bowl

    :pac:

    It's disgusting, alien. Battle of the oaps here in New Orleans :)

    I'll say one thing though, I like the bucs roster and this should be an interesting season for them.

    Why is neither team wearing an alt jersey in Ari-SF!?


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


    I know the Eagles were hit by a lot of injuries but still a great performance from Washington, especially the defence. New coach (with a cancer diagnosis too) with a limited off season and all the off-field ****, so to come out with the win was a major surprise. I think everybody had the Eagles in their picks so it just goes to show you never know with this game.

    About as typical a Brady drive as you could ask for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,206 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    First Brady TD not in a pats uniform. QB sneak.

    Doesn't sit well with me, but I expected nothing less from the GOAT.

    TD bucs. Brady with the TD.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,129 ✭✭✭cosatron


    Brady with a sneak. His throwing the ball well. F**k me he looks good considering his age


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,546 ✭✭✭Masked Man


    He's not human!

    It's week 1, I'm pinning my hopes this season on him falling asunder as the season goes on :)

    TD 9ers, Jimmy gets credit for about a 75 yard TD but it was about 65 yards after the catch :D

    Too easy!

    Welcome to the NFL Joe Burrow

    Some speed!

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,702 ✭✭✭MileHighGuy


    Lovely patient TD run from Burrows there, but a bit of heart in mouth with the no.1 pick rambling around the middle of the field though.

    Brady couldn't have looked any better on that initial drive, but I wonder is Brees suffering from Manning-final-season syndrome with absolutely no arm strength?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,362 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Is it me or is the piped in crowd noise in Levi stadium for the niners and cardinals game overly loud and drowning out the commentators ?

    Can't say I've noticed that, I think they all only allowed have it at 75 decibels? Maybe it's the broadcaster amplifying it more if so?

    Payton was giving out about it during the week saying it's not loud enough

    Looks like Washington have got themselves a leader in their young QB.


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


    You'd wonder how long Ron Rivera will last coaching this season. He really should take a break and come back next season when he's (hopefully) recovered. It can't be good for him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,206 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    I'd actually forgotten gronk played for the bucs till I saw him make that catch :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,362 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    I’m sure it’ll grow on me but seeing Tom Brady in a uniform other than the patriots is weird.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,362 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    It interesting the amount of penalties today for false starts of one type or another given there are no fans in the stands and so no natural noise.

    Poor INT by Brady there.

    Have heard this one many a time before, who knows, maybe now as a 43 year old it may be true. Would probably wait another while to write him off though.

    Hopefully it's just on the fake noise and not at the stadium, but there are bells to get the crowd going when Arizona is on third down.

    Gotta love Cam Newton's post-game press conference canary yellow suit.
