2016 NFL Week #7: Bye Week Thread

[Bob Sacamano]

I'm not sure it means anything anyway. You have to look at the circumstances of all those games.

Garrett is the equalizer.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

The Jags and Raiders are perfect examples of why you don't spend big in free agency. Their huge defensive additions have amounted to jack.

Washington plays Cincy in London? God damn I'm tired of London games. It's bad football. Who gives a fuck about the British.

Plenty of bad football being played in the US also. But even as a Brit I agree with you, London regular season games shouldn't be held at all. Teams only have 8 home games and they shouldn't lose any. It's not fair on that team or it's fans.

Garrett. The only circumstance.

Poor Brits are subjected to the Jags every year.

Well, they are highly qualified for that given their history

The Giants too. They spent Fort Knox on the people they acquired and if not for playing Case Keenum and an inept Baltimore team, they've have a losing record.

And as for a London franchise, it just won't work. Brit football fans have already chosen their teams to support. I'm not going to stop supporting the Cowboys after 30 years to follow a London team. And that's before we get to the logistical issues.

Maybe the NFL could resurrect the London Monarchs! Either that or move the Jags there and rename them the Monarchs.

London Broils makes sense

Joey Bosa playing better than I thought he would

 

[dbair1967]

Joey Bosa playing better than I thought he would

4 sacks in 3 games now. Looks like he need to get stronger vs the run but his pass rush skill is pretty impressive so far

Went to watch that Monarchs at Wembley once against the Sacramento Surge. Was a pretty good game.

 

[Midswat]

NFC Beast

Hardly. It'll taper off.

Cousins sucks.
Wentz is starting to look like a rookie.
Giants are mediocre.

We're legit playing the best football. But there isn't a powerhouse amongst any of us.

Of course, in a parity driven league, there aren't many powerhouses anywhere.

 

[Midswat]

I forgot we had a british cowboys fan posting where when I made my offensive post.

My bad dawg.

No offense taken. And thanks for saving our asses in WWI and WWII.

Dion Caputi on Twitter: "Matt Stafford notched his 17th fourth quarter comeback & the 20th game winning drive of his career. Are we still pretending he's not elite?"

 

[Midswat]

Probably, because he's not really elite.

 

[Scot]

And yet they are getting blown out at home

That's because they also have Crabtree

All the local raidaz fans were pissed that they picked him up with his injury history and never expected him to do much. They pretty much expected him to be an old washout of a player

But he has had a resurgence in his career and seems to be flourishing with the Raidaz!

Another quality QB performance by Krapernick today.
