The NFL Thread - Root for your favorite team (or laugh at the Steelers, whichever's easier)

[Absolutego]

Same here but with the Pats as a kid.

In other news, how the fuck you lose a game against a kicker that missed 3 FGs? I hope Todd Bowles is on the hot seat if not fired.

You run a shitty prevent defense the entire second half and have a hollowed out WR room, that's how.

If Todd Bowles pulls what he did last year and wins the division, I'm gonna ram my head into a wall.

After the last 2 games, I have the Vikings as frauds all because Sam Darnold fell back to Earth

 

[Clanner Scum]

I somehow feel like, despite how fucked Dallas' roster is with injuries rn, We still fuck this up and give them their first home win of the season.

If Hurts' ankle injury is more serious than they're letting on, and I have to watch Kenny Pickett for the rest of the season, I might kill myself.

I need you guys to fuck them up.
I need them to have the same number of wins as the Carolina Panthers.
It would be so fucking funny.

lmao. PANTHERS FOOTBALLL!!!!!!!! Fucking G-spots.

The Vikings are frauds because no other team with a point differential as great as they have remains ringless.
They're like the anti-Buccaneers.

Darnold back to seeing ghosts

At this point, we'll manage to bullshit our way into a Super Bowl.

So, here's my question:
Does being amongst the shittiest teams in the league, qualify teams to play in the European games? Why is it that there's always one shitty team, and usually a shitty team vs another shitty team? How is that supposed to win over/create new fans? About as dumb as the NFL supporting BLM.

 

[Leaf Wage Slave Jr]

Welp, my Redmannders fell to Steelers Bullshit and an offside call. Honestly if we end the season with a winning record I’ll be happy.

May Steelers Bullshit be the thing to derail the 3-peat, I guess…

 

[Ensok]

Cooper Rush starting over Trey Lance is just too funny.

Pretty sure none of the teams actually enjoy having to play exhibition matches besides the Jaguars, so it's just the dogshit owners who can't backtalk the league who get sent to Europe a lot of the time.

 

[Mister Ferro]

Cooper Rush starting over Trey Lance is just too funny.

Can't even tank correctly smh. Like why play Rico (10 carries for 50 yards) when Zeke is right there (4 carries 13 yards and 1 almost fumble out the endzone).

 

[Leaf Wage Slave Jr]

On one hand, lul Cowboys, currently getting rocked by the Eagles

On the other hand, goddamnit Eagles you’re never getting rid of Siriani.

 

[Absolutego]

The Aaron Rodgers Jets are getting fucking felted

To me, it has to do with money. Shitty teams aren't going to sell out in the States but in Europe, you'll be having tons of people just wanting to experience an NFL game without having to go to the US willing to pay regardless of who is playing

As a Bucs fan it's frustrating. Bowles is such a dipshit, the only reason why he got a second chance in Tampa was because he was buddies with Bruce Arians.

 

[Neighborhood Janny]

Something brings me joy to see the Cowboys lose at home.

Not to mention he somehow pulled a winning season out of his ass and nearly went to the NFC Championship last year. I don't think the bullshit is real enough for the repeat, especially with the Falcons getting their shit together for once. Least bye week is next week and Mike Evans should be back.

The Aaron Rodgers Jets are getting fucking felted

Shocking.

America is joyful.

What makes it so frustrating is how avoidable it's been too, the past 5 turnovers have been him trying to force feed JJ/force the 10 points instead of just taking what's underneath. You can't get a knockout hit every play. Especially more inexcusable considering he had very little pressure in the pocket today and had all day to throw the ball.

The statline for this game is nuts; teams with zero touchdowns and at least three turnovers were 0-147 since 2010. The Vikings are the first team to win such a game since the Packers in 2006. Thanks Brian Flores!

They've been so bad for so long the bloom has kind of come off that particular rose for me.

On another note, does it seem like more teams than usual just flat out suck this year? Or at best are mediocre with zero possibility of going beyond the first round? I don't have the time or candidly the patience or interest to go team by team for all 32, but this is what my gut is telling me. Kind of reminds me of the gap between the haves and have nots in MLB, which the NFL theoretically shouldn't have with a salary cap and revenue sharing.
