2017 Week One NFL Thread

Doing women's hair is a sport now?

Only in the hood!

On the surface it would seem that way, but the actual way it works isn't limited to just "inclusion" there's other much more important items above that. They don't really care if it's inclusive, they care only if the typical white (mostly southern) male doesn't like it.

No doubt there is a cultural war against football from some quarters. Always has been, really, but with social media and a new crop of indoctrinated youth it's more successful now.

Speaking of, I heard a good little interview with Daryl Johnston on the Ticket last week. I guess he's become sort of an advocate for football. He was saying he doesn't know why there's a campaign against football (I think I do) but that if you look at the data, hockey is by far the worst sport for concussions, then girls' soccer, then I think wrestling. But you don't have the hatred for those sports that we see with football.

So I'm watching the Raider game with Romo as the color commentator and to my surprise he doesn't suck

He will obviously get better. But he's doing better than I expected him to do in his first game

Why would you think he would suck at being a yuk-yuk good ole boy commenter/cheerleader/buttslapper/gladhander. Weren't you paying attention to his football career at all? He finally has a job doing what he does best.

I expected him to struggle with being too technical for the average joe and getting into the nuts and bolts of the game deeper than he should for broadcast tv

10 sacks today by Jags, who dominate lowly Texans and one of the most overrated headcoaches in the history of football, Bill OBrien

Ravens played some serious D today too, forcing Andy Dalton into 5 turnovers and getting the shutout on the road

If I didn't know better, I'd think you're not a fan of the Romes

So today you saw why the 4skins dont want to tie themselves to Cousins any length of time or big money. Not only was he a turn over machine but they seemed to happen at the worst possible times.

his so-so arm strength is very noticeable. the ball takes a while to get to its target at times.

Not sure that last one was a turnover though. Looked like the arm was going forward and the play should have probably been overturned.

Then officials kick Seattle DB out of a game for "throwing a punch" and replays shows he didn't throw one.

Typical start to a season for horrendous NFL officials.

Did they really give the Gatorade bath to the Eagles coach?

that was terrible. all he did was lay on top of the guy with his arm over his throat. no "forearm shot" or anything. and they ejected him! and that block in the back thing on Rodgers was weak.

yep, very strange. you'd think it was his first NFL win.

The sportsbook at the South Point Casino in Las Vegas took a "six-figure" bet on the New York Giants +4 on Saturday, according to sportsbook director Chris Andrew. The Giants are currently 3.5-point road underdogs to the Dallas Cowboys.

Yep, pretty sad

Par for the course for NFL officials, probably a preview of what we'll see tonight in Dallas

Cards RB David Johnson had an awful game, lost a costly fumble and then suffered what some are saying is a significant wrist injury.

Cards looked awful today by the way. Bad games for the Stealers and Falcons too, both teams barely winning on the road vs bad teams.

And maybe Seattle should have spent time trying to trade for OL help instead of that dog Sheldon Richardson (who's been invisible in this game so far)

Another classic CZ ****** overreaction thread going. TJ watt had a good game today vs a horrible Browns team starting a rookie QB, and those slimeballs crawl out of the woodwork with the "we should have drafted WATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" garbage.

Just like they did in week one of preseason, then disappeared the remainder of traning camp and preseason when Watt didn't do anything but Charlton did.

We should make a rule here. No CZ retards allowed at DCU.
