OT: American footy thread

[T.S Quint]

I think I am in love with Nick Bisa.

4 and 0 baby! Not the greatest of opponents so far but it’s good to be winning these games we would have lost a year or two ago.

Rams up next. Huge game. If we can win this one we can be recognised as a legitimately good team.
Been a long time since we’ve been one of those.

I think Rams will burn the 49rs.
Eagles to me are the sleepers and should come on strong. Wentz is the class QB along with Wilson in this side.

 

[jk13]

Yeah...well....we have our best two linemen out for a month and no fullback and the rams r desperate at home, you’re no Nostradamus there

 

[hindy111]

I'd rank them like this

New Orleans
Eagles
Green bay
Seattle
Dallas
Rams
Minnesota
Carolina
49rs
Bears


But I give all these 10 some chance of winning the NFC. The rest none. I guess it is hard to rate the 49rs after 4 games but they do have a soft draw and are a wild card chance for sure.

I’m not really expecting great things, but I am enjoying the ride so far.
Injuries have hit, no surprise there. Hoping to make the playoffs still though.

I haven’t seen much of Philly this year. Will have to catch up on what they are doing over the coming weeks.

It's only a week but I think time to now take 49rs seriously. I'd move them up the list now

New Orleans
Green Bay
Seattle

The 3 standouts but San Fran as good as any of the others or better.

 

[hindy111]

Maybe people have worked out Pedersons play book.
I also think Texans can do something special.

 

[jk13]

Another elite defensive performance, saleh looked ready to explode from excitement several times. New Orleans and packers will tell whether this team is set for deep into the finals. So happy

 

[Twizzle]

well that was close

 

[T.S Quint]

5 and 0!
Yeah baby!

 

[jk13]

Haha mcvey will hav his pensioners card the next time the rams get a 1st round pick

Did they just deal away two more 1st rounders?

 

[T.S Quint]

well that was close

As a Packers fan, do you think the Lions got screwed?

 

[hindy111]

Yes they did.
Official did everything to give Dallas a chance as well. 3 huge calls in that game especially when 2nd and 26 on last drive.
You can almost call holding on every play if wanted in the NFL. That is the issue.

 

[Twizzle]

As a Packers fan, do you think the Lions got screwed?

I think there some calls that affected both teams but one thing noticeable for me was the amount of incompletions from both teams. They both had chances to score which they both blew, got scrappy in the end but yeah, I thought that last decision was touch and go.

 

[jk13]

Oh shit, another piece. Shake and bake baby

Ffs, Oakland - it's Carlos Hyde, not Marshawn Lynch...

The Raiders blow.

 

[T.S Quint]

Nick.

f**king.

BOSA!!!!

I didn’t see it. What happened?

Hyde is no Lynch (but then who is) but he’s a good RB.

When he’s healthy.

Never mind. Just watched it.
Ouch.

That defensive line needs an injection of talent.
Someone like Khalil Mack, for instance.
