For the NFL fans here. Just because we've had no football to talk about for 10 months. The only thing we have is the NFL. I want to at least talk about football. The Chiefs look like the real deal again while the Texans look like also rans so the football world is unfolding the way it should. They had 15,000 fans at Arrowhead Stadium this evening & the social distancing & masking didn't look good. I think they should have played the games this season without fans in the stands. If anything derails this season it'll be Covid. If a lot of fans get sick the season will be over. 

Vikings have a few holes to fill, average Qb with 1 quality receiver and a poor secondary wont win you to many games

Brees for me as well. But Arians is a helluva qb coach. Look what he did with Carson Palmer. He brougfht him back from the scrap heap. Brady has that guy on his side. 

Another year & the Vikings haven't changed. LOL.

Secondary is going to be a development year. They are super young but Mike Zimmer might be the best developers of defensive backs in the league.

Plenty of high scoring games today.

Drew Brees and the Saints, SB contenders, Tom Brady and the Bucs.........nope

Mike Zimmer is overrated. He's been a head coach for  seven or eight  years. three playoff wins? something like that. Vikings keep screwing up the same things, year after year. 

defensive genius whose defence falls apart in big games.

 

what was that about the niners beating the cardinals? 

go Streveller!

I think the Bucs offense will only get better but SB contenders? Too early yet to tell. 

Cleveland Browns are... The Browns. A Factory Of Sadness...

Ah yes, the Week 1 super bowl champs!

Think the NFL told the refs to ease upon the constant penalties. Like holding, that ruin the games.

 

browns bengals almost no penalties so far. Good game.

Change the name from Keim to Walters and this is exactly what we heard two years ago. 

And Lapolice scouted him.

Onside kicks don't work very often now since the rule change until today, suck it Falcons

NFL has finally figured out that a QB who can run is a good thing. They were still looking down on it when kaepernick was doing it. Or Russell Wilson.

 

CFL has had them for years.

Edited September 20, 20205 yr by Mark F

Russell Wilson has put the Seattle Seahawks on his back in an early MVP like season. Despite throwing a pick 6 vs New England, he shrugged that off & threw five more all to his teammates in an exciting 35-30 win at home to go to 2-0. The Seahawks who really don't do enough on their OL to protect Wilson as their most valuable player better hope he stays healthy. 

So now, after the Chiefs comeback today & Wilson's play this evening both teams are 2-0 with their qbs leading the way in spectacular fashion. Question: If you were a brand new GM of a brand new expansion NFL team & you had to pick between drafting Russell Wilson or Patrick Mahomes to your team as your qb then who would you pick? The only choices you have are those 2... No one else. Who would it be?

Mahomes strictly based on age.

At 31, if Wilson stays away from injuries he could play at the level he is now for a few years. He is still in his prime. I'd take Wilson.

I'm surprised how little football talk there is around here. I kinda hoped we'd all pick an NFL team or two to follow and discuss their games considering there's no CFL this year. Maybe the Streveler's.

BTW: Mahomes is the QB, I'd choose.

I just can't bring myself to care about the NFL. If Streveler was playing more, I might care to watch the Cards games, but otherwise there's just not a lot for me to care about. Sports, for me, is a regional thing. I care about my province/city playing against another province/state/city..... watching the so-called "best players in the world" just for the sake of that, doesn't really do it for me, at least in football.

The Niners are all hurt. Burn 2020 down to the ground and let's start 2021 right now.

Mahomes is the one that I'd take.
