NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION Week 15 "Other Games" Thread

[50-yard-line]

Sorry, working on something and had a glitch.

Jack Jones obviously with the big play there. Unfortunate that he's a head case and didn't work out here.

It kills me that he got tossed out of here.
The talent is there. Work with the kid. Sheesh.

Wow, great catch by Meyers on that touchdown. Still don't get why they didn't retain him...kid's doing all the things there that made him so valuable here.

Maybe Bill didn't like him. I wish that was in jest but it wasn't.

Saw the Patriots injury report earlier ... can't believe Thornton popped up with a hamstring injury. I don't have words for him. Hopefully it's just the team being forthcoming with his status and it doesn't sideline him. Would just add more insult to an already frustrating second season.

I've come to expect the kid to get hurt. He looks like a stick man drawing and could change his position designation to TO (Tub Occupant).

Chargers look like a group that just doesn't want to be there.

It can't be easy to be a player or a fan of a team with a HC like that. Thankfully we have a guy like Bill, who makes less mistakes in a season than Staley does in a game.

 

[1960Pats]

I’ve rarely felt happy about former patriots players playing well, but this is an exception. Good for Meyers and BBolden.

I think the reason we can pull for the ex-Pats now is that we've been eliminated from contention and the other games don't affect the Pats playoff chances.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

The raiders were just shut out by the Vikings too. So bizarre.

Bb to LAC next year seems very possible, hopefully we can get some decent compensation

Me, reading twitter this morning, seeing Jacoby Meyers, Brandon Bolden and Jack Jones all figured in the scoring. Meanwhile, the Pats average 13 points per game.

You really think this kid is going to survive? In Vegas?

He had 4 run-ins in 1 1/2 seasons with the Patriots.

That's a lot. He's lucky he didn't get jacked up with the law.

 

[captain stone]

Hardegree...sort of wonder about OC's here beyond Bill O'Brien and who might be an interesting option. Should be interesting if we get to that point.

Bill never should've allowed him (or Carmen Bricillo) to leave. It was a mere lateral move - QBC here to QBC there - so he was under no obligation to do so; but he must've already had a replacement in mind...

I think he’s a kid and needs to grow up. But the talent is there.

26 years old this week.

Are we infantilizing adults by calling them kids these days?

Three games today:

Minnesota at Cincinnati - 1:00pm

Pittsburgh at Indianapolis - 4:30pm

Denver at Detroit - 8:15pm

The NFL wastes no time as soon as college football ends grabbing those Saturday time slots.

 

[Ian]

Browning hasn't been bad filling in since Burrow went down. He's another guy who has turned some heads late in the season.

 

[Ian]

Wow, unreal throw with the blitzer coming in hard on him. Perfect pass to Chase, ball was right on the money.

 

[sb1]

Haven’t been paying close attention to the Bengals but Browning seems like he’d be our QB1 already…. Zappe who?

 

[Ian]

Got cute there, and it killed the drive.

Kid's played well. 5/6 for 57yds on that opening drive. Bengals up 3-0 w/8:41 left to go in the opening quarter.

Super Bowl 56 teams look like they’re making some late wild card noise…Bengals 7-6 Rams 6-7

Kind of a funny year. Literally no idea who will be left standing given how things have gone for some of these clubs late in the season.

 

[Ian]

Wow, Mullens also off to a nice opening drive. He was 3/3 for 42yds and Chandler just finished it off with a TD run. 6-3 Minnesota with 2:23 left to go in the first quarter.

 

[raduray]

Based on records, three evenly matched games today. Good way to spend a rainy day.

 

[italian pat patriot]

Perfect drive from Minnesota
