Game Day Thread 2025 OFFICIAL GAME GAME THREAD: PS Game 2 - NE tops Minn 20-12

THIS IS OUR LIVE GAME DAY THREAD:

This is where we gather to follow things on Game Day. Obviously, emotions tend to be high so if anyone gets a little crazy, the use of the “Mute” button is encouraged on anyone who may be annoying to you to control your experience and to allow the moderators to also enjoy the game.

At the same time, please take a deep breath before over-reacting for the sake of making this a pleasant experience for everyone.

Lastly, we have never allowed promoting the use of any illegal streaming. This is illegal and will be enforced by copyright holders, which puts this site at risk. DO NOT POST ANY LINKS to those platforms.

This also means, there absolutely cannot be any mention these platforms, spaces, special characters, etc. - so do not get creative in trying to work around this request.

If you do you will have your account suspended.

I do not have the means to deal with legal issues and have already been contacted previously, so this absolutely needs to be adhered to. If you see any illegal links, please report them so a mod can remove them.

Chism will find a spot in a Roster

Baker is a goner
No, Polk is the goner. Baker plays special teams. No DRT-IR for Polk, either -- they'd have to put him on the 53-man before they can do that, and besides, he's not valuable enough to waste a DRT-IR spot. They only get 8 for the whole season. Chism and Baker make the team.
 
For those who actually watched…

Was Drake truly inaccurate?

Not paying $ to watch preseason games from Atlanta snd trying to discern if now QB is sneaking into “this could be a problem” territory, or just a rough week.
He had a couple slightly high passes in the first three throws. One was still caught by Hooper, the other was just out of Pop Douglas’ reach. After that he was fine. No big deal

They don’t have to put him on the 53 anymore. Teams can select 2 guys to go straight to IR-DTR on cutdown day without having to make the roster

A few throws were a tad high and he had a delay of game. Everything else looked good - pocket movement, presence, decision making, taking what was there, etc.
 
WOW. Lidstrom was trash there.

no need to pay, it's on NFLN

Thanks!

I’m hoping the game is replayed on NFLN later.

Fair to say Pop’s height was part of the issue?

That’s just a reps thing to me.

Threw a couple of balls high. Wasn't disastrous but there was nothing deep.
 
What’d he do wrong…?
Kicked off about 20 yards down the field. Supposed to get to the landing zone. Ball at the 40 yard line.
 
The rookie kicker rebounds with a 50+ yarder. Hopefully he put that earlier shank behind him.
 
Keep giving Borg chances at the Job that miss earlier was ugly.
I’d go with Romo.
 
Thanks!

It would’ve been an easier catch for a normal height WR but Maye needs to adjust for his WR’s height in that situation
