NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION 2024 Week 15 NFL Games

[jmt57]

A nice thing about week 15 is that there are games on in both the early and the late time slot, on both CBS and Fox.
Once upon a time that was standard procedure - but those days are long gone.
All the byes have been completed, so there is a full slate of games as well. There are also two games on Monday night.

The best game of the week is 10-3 Buffalo at 12-1 Detroit.
Unfortunately it is on at the same time as the Pats game, so fans in New England won't have access unless they have the Sunday Ticket, go to a sports bar, or access an illegal stream.
Other good late games include Steelers at Eagles and Bucs at Chargers.

Miami at Houston (early) could be interesting as well, though that too will not be broadcast in New England.
Rams at 49ers (Thursday night) and Packers at Seahawks (Sunday night) should also be entertaining.

A thriller on Thursday night football. 3-3 at the half. It's a rain game. But still, the Rams looked unstoppable the last few weeks, but tonight ...

It's riveting I tell you.

I think the coaches who were pointing out the lack of practice with the new rules makes for a pretty boring watch.

But instead we have to listen to the dweebs and the metrics people and all the front office know-it-alls, not to mention the egotistical owners with heads bigger than Stewie!

Deebo with a nice drop. Might have been a TD. My fantasy team loves lot...not.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Trade Polk for Deebo. Both have fallen out of favor with their respective teams.

Trade Polk for a bag of rocks.

He has really dropped off this year. Maybe he's hurt or something?

Think he got a contract and then peaced out is what I think. Bad trend.

Edit to add no Aiyuk and Cmac hurts him. Coverage is almost all on him now.

Glad I missed this one. Cleaned the house instead...

AB shout out to De’Vondre Campbell after he quit last night. AB did it better tho. Lol

Some speculate that the team is imploding. Injuries matter sure, but like people are saying Deebo *****ing then dropping every pass and Purdy is completely utterly average on a bad team.

Maye is much, much better as a QB in his rookie season with as of this moment roughly the same amount of talent around him on offense.

Thatd be crazy if their window closes without a sb. Since 2019 one of the better teams ive seen not able to come away with even one ring!

Thanks for posting. The early games suck, esp. for those of us here in NE. I was hoping the Lions and Bills got flexed to a night game.

 

[TheRainMaker]

49ers are done and Shanahan will never get the monkey off his back in SF. The team is deteriorating. In an alternate universe, he'd be at least a 2 time Super Bowl winning HC had he put his ego aside and signed Tom Brady. That has got to be the most under the radar worst decision we've ever seen.

Regarding Campbell, he was clearly mad because he got benched with Greenlaw's return. In fact, he did the 49ers a solid by not wanting to play because he's a terrible LB and had no business being an All Pro player in 2021. Anytime he has to run towards the sidelines, he looks like he's running with ice skates on.

Gag : Burleson praising tyreek for his leadership and tyreek stating that his main concern for Tua was his health (since HE is a family man)…. Tyreek & Nate : you guys DO realize Hill is a major abuser, no ?

Let’s see more tears for Brady on TV.

 

[Foxypats]

The morning games are a bit blah....nothing that really catches my eye.

 

[Brick27]

Thuney at LT today for KC

Thuney at LT today for KC

Always liked Thuney. Reliable, solid, great pick.

 

[Foxypats]

What a mistake by the Browns . Got a 3 and out and then muff's the punt and KC recovers at Browns 20 yard !!!!
