Week 2 NFL game discussions

[Uncle Rico]

I wish the Bears had lost. Desperation would have given them a real edge against the Jets this week.

I don't know. The Jets have been desperate for decades, and look where it's gotten them.

so, a couple of thoughts on yesterdays games.

1. The broncos while they have 2 wins dont really impress me as much as they did last year. they came away with both those wins by the skin of their teeth and Talib looks like he took that money and is back to being the player he was in tampa rather than NE.

2. Richard Sherman can stop that "greatest CB in the nfl!" stuff now. first week he spent time covering the packers #3 wideout! and this week he was exposed when thrown to 5-5 for 60yards. Rivers went right at him. meanwhile Revis can follow the teams best player around all game

3. The flags in these games are getting to be unbearable. its coming to a point when I am expecting a flag after every play.

Agreed. This may be sensitivity bias, but it seems like the offensive players are looking for the flags more now than they were as well. If a penalty is blatant it`s one thing, but I hate when a guy gets up from a competitive fight for the ball that they lost and instantly starts gesturing for a flag to be thrown (and that goes for the Patriots too).

They beat us once or twice. That's pretty much a SuperBowl win for them.

Haven't listened to or watched any sports talk today has Manning got any flak over yelling at Thomas for missing a pick?

I'm stuck (technical problem) with Felger and Mazz. Felger's too busy bashing Brady for allegely whining in his press conference.

Anything for ratings with that asshat.

Doesn't surprise me one bit.

He's not their only problem, but Thompson didn't get enough depth on the line to offset the loss of the NT.

Look how badly we did losing BOTH Vince & Kelly lst season.

BB really sucks as a GM and Coach, as I recall your aberational last weeks comment, so untypical of your usual rational analysis..

You brought this up in another thread. I don't know specifically what you are referring to, so I can't really address your claim.

Just called Brady a whiner on Early Edition on CSN. Nothing about Manning so far.
