NFL 2024

Delayed as I took a few days to really catch up, but damn NFL is back baby. I saw the matchups for week 2 and thought 'meh'. Holy shit how wrong was I. Incredible results - it's such an unpredictable league.
Apex sport watching for me. Loving it. And DAZN have upped their game - the streaming quality was top tier and the 'ad free' is the best way to watch a game start to finish. Strong recommend.
Mahomes is still a goddamn cheat code. What a player. Burrow is fucking good, but the Bengals just didn't quite have enough ... still some bone headed plays.

And Tua goes to IR. Minimum 4 weeks on the sideline. They have a pretty soft schedule over those 4 weeks, so I think 3-1 is possible, putting them at 4-2 for the season, which will put a but of pressure on Tua to come back. I'm not a dolphins fan, and I am a jets fan (for my sins) so I guess this is easy to say, but I genuinely think the best thing for Tua is a 0-4 run, leaving them 1-5 with the playoffs out of reach, totally removing the temptation for him to rush back.

One thing I'll say about the jets
I think they have the best uniform in the league

haha
he's nothing like Peyton or Eli!
no way either of them could run one in from 60 yards, and they know it
even grandad arch is telling them that his athletic genes skipped a generationwith the added running game, young arch has the potential to be even better than both peyton and eli
his dad (Cooper) was a wide-receiver in college, smashed up his knee real bad (i think) and never made it to the pros
looking like he would have gone ok if he had -

Anyone watching this TNF blockbuster?
The Patriots have 40 yards for the entire half? 8 pass attempts and 5 rushes total?? Brissett has been sacked 3 times already??
-
@mariner4life Sure am. It’s a tough watch but if it’s on you bet I’ll be watching it. Patriots are a hot mess on offense and their defense isn’t a lot better today. ARod picking and choosing. This could get ugly

Rodgers rolling back the years, throwing lasers on the move. I was expecting him to be good, but thought he'd be almost purely a packet posser given his age, and throw the first two weeks that's all he'd been, so dunno whether this is just about the opposition or whether he's getting more confident in his body over the season.
Patriots are putrid though - lacking talent to start and down both starting tackles from last week. Hence the 7 sacks. Some backbreaking penalties too. A few garbage time snaps from Maye - managed to get sacked twice, almost get picked off on his first attempt and a couple of wayward passes. About what you'd expect from a rookie who's developing, but definitely not ready to start yet.
Bengals are going to regret that loss at end of the season I suspect, will be important for seeding even if they still make the playoffs.

i never rated eli, but yes he did get real hot twice
with the parity in the NFL, it sort of all rides on your QB getting on a hot streak at play off time
joe flacco for the ravens, classic example
apart from those two times i think eli was only a 500 QB
debate at the moment about whether eli should be in the hall of fame
i say no, but his manning name will probably get him therepeyton was in a different class, still couldn't run the ball to save himself, but probably the greatest QB technician ever
if arch can add a running game to peyton's technical ability. . . . .WOW
interesting to see where he eventually ends up, with the Manning mana in the NFL, pretty sure they'll get him to where they want

A week is a long time in the NFL
The high flying saints are held to 12 points and lose to the Eagles.
The fucking Broncos got a win, away at Tampa. And score 26 points!
The Panthers are giving the Raiders a beat down.
The Ravens are back -
The bucs were 2-0 and looking like a surprise package there too.
0-2 rams tip up the 49ers with a slightly absurd come back as well.
Vikings now 3-0 looking like a handful.
-
lol the Ravens only just held on, and aren't doing anything this year based on that (nor are teh Cowboys though)

you've got some pretty significant outs.
