Trubisky is holding the Bears back.
Rodgers is the best at protecting his passer rating. He would rather take the sack than throw the ball away.
-
Yeah I'm big on the Steelers this year too. Have a multi of the Steelers and Pats to win their divisions at $3, which I think is overs.
This Bears/Packers game is pretty stodgy, both offences are really battling. Rogers looks like he'll just get Green Bay over the line though, which will be big for them.
-
Well that was a good old fashion snooze fest. Packers win 10-3 over Da Bears.

@Sneakdefreak you've changed. I miss the annual "niners will make the Championship game at least"
Stoked it's back! Even though Denver look to be treadmilling this year.
Fucking Brady and the fucking Patriots will probably win, because they are the Melbourne Storm, BUT, it appears they may not have a cakewalk of a division this year, because, just maybe, whisper it, the Jets won't stink.
I would like the Chiefs to be as ridiculously offensive-sided as last year and win it that way.
Oh, the 49ers will be there.....just a bit of reverse psychology in play.
-
the rushing yards stats are ridiculous. 93 yards total for the game.

Jets are a chance of a wild card if Sam Darnold takes another step. The problem is that ourccorners are woeful and we're almost as bad at edge. No pressure on the passer and poor coverage is a recipe for disaster. But just quietly this offence might be good enough to out score the opposition.
Le'Veon Bell should dominate opposition defensive scheming giving Darnold a chance to beat teams in the air. Bell and Montgomery are two of the best pass catching backs in the league. Anderson is a top 5 deep threat and has shown development as a route runner. Herndon is a match up nightmare and could just end up being the best playmaker on offense, and Enunwa and Crowder are both among the top tier of WR 2s in the league. If Gase is as good an offensive mind as his reputation says them this offence will be a nightmare to cover.

AB is a clown. I knew he was an idiot, but I didn't think he'd go this far.
This is pretty funny though.:smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:
The Raiders are desperate for results, but I can see them giving up on him. It's just non-stop drama with him.
Didn't realise the Madden Curse had the power to make you go insane. Really shows the culture issue in Pittsburgh might have been a case of a bad egg (two if you want to count Bell).

Leveon Bell was purely about business as he didn't want to be franchised again for another year - mind you he left 14 million on the table anyway by staying out the entire season - and in the end he got his multi-year contract with guarantees although he'll never make up that 14 million
-
So apparently Antonio Brown will play in week 1 after "apologising" to teammates. He's now posted this on youtube:

And now he's on instagram demanding to be released by the Raiders. Dude needs help.
-
@Sneakdefreak The Raiders obliged, and AB has been released, free to sign with another team immediately. This screws the raiders, who lose their number 1 receiving target, and teams might be leery about signing AB. Someone will take a chance on him, but it's going to cost him money
-
Now Antonio Brown has signed with the Patriots. A 1 year deal worth up to $15 million.
Randy Moss went from the Raiders to the Patriots over a decade ago - that worked out pretty well.

Guess the bad news for the Pats is that they never won a a Superbowl with Moss
But this sure is wild.. I have more confidence in the Pats over the Chiefs -

If anyone can rein him in it's the Pat's. Maybe that was his intention all along. I don't believe he's that smart, but if I was WR I'd much prefer playing with Brady than Carr
-
Was AB free to sign with the Pats direct from Pittsburgh? If not I could totally believe he has used the Raiders as his patsy to engineer a move to the Pats. He never appeared serious about the Raiders, it was one drama after another
-
@KiwiMurph said in NFL 2019:
@canefan AB wasn"t able to sign where he wanted whilst in Pittsburgh. Steelers traded him to Oakland.
So maybe he wanted NE all along and the Raiders were a means to an end?
-
Looks that way. Either way it's a total dick move by Brown.

He's always been a dick. I remember watching in locker room footage of Tomlin giving a team talk. Everyone is paying attention except AB who is busy filming himself

Can't wait for Red Zone tomor.....oh, wait, yeah fuck that's right, grrr
-

What am I missing here?
Just checked - Sky don't look like they are doing RedZone any more; it's Panthers Rams and then Cowboys Giants, with Pats Steelers this afternoon (all NZT).
Mondays I could never have the time to watch anyway, so not too fussed personally
-
Dolphins are on their way to the 1st pick. They let Lamar Jackson throw 5 TDs on them.
The Browns have had a lot of hype, but the Titans are smoking them at the moment. Titans up 43 - 13 in the 4th. Baker Mayfield has thrown 3 picks in the 4th Q.
Jaguars just signed Foles to a big contract and now he's on the sideline with his arm in a sling.
-
Seeing a lot of blow out scores, probably since none of the first teams played in preseason.
Browns are on the right path but this talk about them being contenders was crazy. Pittsburgh or Baltimore is winning that division.
-
yea, i went to turn on Redzone only to find just the one game! fuckers!
I see the Browns are still the browns...
So good to see Witten catching touchdown passes again. If only so i don't have to hear him calling them
-
49ers get an opening win. Nice.
The defense looks much improved but they will face much better offenses moving forward (and a lot of offenses are clunky right now given no one plays preseason).
A fairly average display by Jimmy G but at least he got through unscathed.
-
jesus look at what the Pats are doing to a so-called contender in the Steelers. It's a bloodbath
I don't remember a weekend with so many lopsided scores. In a 16 game season, can you afford to limp in like this?

They will get Antonio Brown next week
-
Yeah that'll either fuck us around, or be deemed a master stroke.

@mariner4life In recent years slow starts are fairly common.
September has essentially become the defacto preseason as training camps have been stripped way back and coaches are scared to play starters in preseason for fear of injury.
Patriots lost 2 of their first 4 games last year.
Having said that - it's a bit different when its experienced coaches/cultures like the Patriots or the Saints starting slow.
When it's the Browns with a first time head coach it's a bit of a worry!
-
What a dream start for Jackson and the Ravens. Crazy numbers.
Hats off to the Cardinals for their comeback and what Murray did in the 4th.
Sets up a good clash for next week between these two teams.
-
Can't tell if Lamar Jackson is good as a QB or the Miami Dolphins are just that bad. One thing obvious is the Ravens are going to run the ball a lot which makes teams stack in the box and therefore open up the passing lanes for Jackson.

We know the Dolphins are bad.....

Yup/ Dolphins are tanking as per their trading away all their good O-line and D-Line players during the pre-season. But...Jackson has spent most of the off-season concentrating on improving his core mechanics and throwing base as well as seeming to understand that he cannot hold the ball for as long as he dd last season and rely on his scrambling game - Cam Newton being the psoter child for that beinga flawed approach. Hell I expected Jackson to throw much less than he did, but he was very comfortable with a quick release and made some smart decisions - even a good D-line is going to struggle against a QB who releases the ball off a 3 step drop and also has to guard against a beastly 1-2-3 running back platoon especially with someone as evil as Ingram

Cowboys looked good in the stuffing of the Giants

@MiketheSnow sadly for my Giants, the only player that looked threatening was Barkley - the guy is a machine.
Surprised by how poorly the Browns played, considering all the hype.
