LMFAO @ this thread...

at this juncture no native Americans are worth starting as they can't even accumulate points in "garbage time"... Unfortunately, I stupidly started 3 of 'em this week, Cousins, Perine, and Crowder... what a dumpster fire...

the only thing apparent about last night's game is that one team actually showed up to play, and the other decided to play with themselves in the locker room... my local Pop Warner team could've beaten the native Americans last night... however, the thing that most pisses me off about last night is the fact I actually (and obviously stupidly) thought Crowder had turned the corner on his abysmal season after Week 12, but how quickly I forgot his 2017 "breakout" game was against the putrid G-men... if Dallas could play Washington every week, I guarantee the '72 Dolphins would be shaking in their shoes... Godspeed to all who actually give a flip... good day...

the chick (I believe her name is Kay Adams) is kinda cute...

people actually WATCHED TNF??? that's the biggest shock to me... LOL as for the "Madden" cam, all of the Millennials who host Good Morning Football on NFLN were raving about it this morning... just watching a few of the highlights made me feel nauseated, but I'm like REALLY old! LOL

Jones, Johnson, Smith and Williams would all be good adds... LMAO

Should also check for "NPLFL" (National Plus London Football League) or "NPAOCFL" (National Plus An Outside Country Football League"... LMAO

There are way too many things "wrong" with the NFL right now, to list here. But my biggest problem with Goodell is, as others have mentioned, the lack of consistent administration over disciplinary matters. But hey, if the owners want to pay him $50M to be their puppet, more power to him. I personally think they should be doing the opposite - i.e., showing him the door. However, no one has made me King for the day, so my opinion doesn't mean manure! P.S. - btw, if the London expansion ever does come to fruition, will they change the name and re-brand the shield to the "IFL?"

Ok, so ZERO targets in a 47 - 10 blowout is definitely NOT 1) a 12/175/2 stat line, nor 2) the least bit encouraging...

I'm not disagreeing with you - as I said, the owner's (a/k/a puppet masters) pushed for this so they would have the complete upper hand. The players (at the time of negotiation) likely just "wanted to play" and had no clue as to what type of a monster they were creating. Now there are reports that Goodell wants a $50M salary plus lifetime use of a private jet and healthcare for his family - who knows whether that is real or fake news...but if real, the owners are total morons if they do grant him that, when what he really needs is a good swift kick to the exit... Regardless of whether he gets an extension or not, it will be a very interesting negotiation when the current CBA expires.

Now that everyone is dropping him, he'll explode for 12 catches on 15 targets and 2 TDs...sprinkle in 175 receiving yards...that's just the way it is...just sayin'...

IMO, DeMaurice Smith is actually the one to blame here, for allowing the current CBA to grant the Commissioner full, unilateral reign and discretion over all NFL disciplinary matters...Jerrah (as one of the 32 puppet masters) is also partially to blame himself, for pushing (or at least not protesting the move) to give such unilateral power to Goodell when the CBA was negotiated...

Are there actually 40 players WORTH putting a claim in for this week (or any other week for that matter)? In all of the leagues I play in, there are rarely more than a handful of players worthy of a claim in any given week...just sayin'... Maybe you should just leave it alone and let this guy claim 10 bye week kickers, then lock his roster so he cant drop them from his roster this week! LMAO

Forums are getting soft - in the past when someone would come in to whine about a trade, the general consensus was to "suck it up buttercup" and move along...the only time any trade should ever be vetoed is when it's a clear case of collusion, let the owner's manage their teams as they see fit, yada, yada, yada... LMAO

you answered your own question, it was a defensive/kicking team (KC) player who recovered/advanced the fumble...

Wow - you guys are a LOT more bitter over that loss than I am...honestly, I was very impressed they went in to Arrowhead (one of the toughest, if not THE toughest places for opposing teams to play) in primetime on MNF where in recent history they have traditionally SUCKED, and walked away with just a 3-point loss (that last play only mattered to Vegas and fantasy). And, for the record it was the chemistry of Cousins, Reed, Garçon, and DJax that made the offense click last year (except in the Red Zone where they were 30th in the league in TD efficiency - and, I put that # squarely on the shoulders of offensive boy-genius, McVay). This season you've got a new guy in the system, who until 2 years ago was a QB, a second-year guy who didn't see the field his rookie season, and a third-year slot guy whom they may have slightly lost faith in because he's already muffed a couple of key punts this early in the season (I know fielding punts is way different than catching a nice spiral pass, but who knows what goes on inside the psyche between a QB and WR?). Oh yeah, and the TE who, when healthy, is a Top 2 talent in the league, BUT who can NEVER seem to stay healthy, including early this season... Anyway, this team may not make the playoffs, but from what I've seen thus far, I do think they'll at least contend. That home opener was a complete stinker, but I've been completely impressed the other 3 games by their young defensive talent, and commitment to a more balanced offensive attack. With 1/4 of the season in the books, we'll just have to see...

DMD, thanks for the clarification - I thought his suspension was 4, but didn't know (or couldn't remember) he had served 1 of them Wk. 17 last season....

Anyone heard any updates on his status? If I'm not mistaken, he has 2 more weeks left on his 4-game suspension due to the Bucs being forced to take their bye during NFL Week 1...however I'm not seeing any current chatter on him at all, though...I've been holding him in one league, but sure could use his roster spot elsewhere, although I don't want to just throw him away...I did read somewhere awhile ago, that he's not guaranteed to get the starting job once he returns...not sure whether to interpret that as "motivational coach-speak" or not...thoughts?

Just wait until I drive up in my Ferrari and lets see who's "over-compensating" then! LOL

Dammit, I thought that's exactly what this is...my bad! LOL

Well, you win! So, I say bring back Jim Brown! But for me, almost 30 years (since the Redskins were last "relevant") sure does FEEL like 50+... Have the Browns ever hired a QB coach (Jim Zorn), who didn't even have any experience as an OC, then before the season, promote him to HC because nobody else wanted to work for them??? LMAO

So Bub, are you trying to say you weren't so "Lucky" on the WW this week? LMAO

This thread greatly amuses me, but only b/c my team sucks worse than yours...trust me, since 1990 I've adopted the same "ownership sucks, coaching staff sucks, front office sucks" reverse psychology/mentality that is displayed here, so let me tell you it doesn't work - yeah, there's flashes here or there, to keep you coming back year after year, but at the end of the day.............they're STILL gonna SUCK!!! LMAO

I have Eifert to back-up Gronk! LOL talk about glutton for punishment! the trick will be to have one healthy while the other is out and vice-versa! sorry, didn't mean to hijack Abdullah's thread, but I have him on my team, too... should change my team name from The Outlaws to Fragile-aws... LOL
