OT: American footy thread

[hindy111]

Honestly?

No.

Detroit has the worst pass defence in the NFL, and we only just beat them by 7.

I don't know...I just don't rate Carr, and I just don't think our receivers are much chop.

Josh Jacobs is a gun.

Clelin Ferrell is a special talent.

Our D, overall, is decent - but our offence is pretty terrible.

It's a team that is building. I see them as a possible wild card. Big game against chargers coming up.

Tbh, the Carr apologists have been making excuses for him for ages:

- it's a rebuild team
- Carr is recovering from injury
- Carr has had to contend with 5 Offensive Co-ordinators, and 4 Head Coaches, in his time as a first string QB
- Carr is tough

Derek Carr is mediocre, tbh.

 

[hindy111]

Not elite
Not top 10

But sits around 11-20

If he was in a good side he would be looking better.

Wilson is the best QB at moment.

Derek Carr has some good qualities:

- he can read, and react to, defences, at the line of scrimmage, better than most modern QB's

- he is tough

- he is passionate about his team

- he is a decent scrambler

But that's it.

His long, and medium, throw accuracy is dog shit these days.

His throw power has regressed.

His vision, and overall game awareness, is below par; time and time again, when the Raiders are chasing points, he opts for a check-down, and we are 3rd and 8 on our own 40, chasing points, late in the 4th quarter.

I am one of only a small handful of Raiders fanatics who think he is terrible.

As for the best QB, it's Mahomes for me.

I couldn't have him in my top 3.

Wilson
Breed
Rodgers

Watson/Mhomes


Where do you rate Carson Wentz?

For me, Wentz is in the top 8, but he's one-dimensional.

Watson is too inconsistent, for me.

Rogers is the king of Hail Marys

I am unsure of Wentz. He is big and rarely fails the QB sneak. He is quite mobile and strong. Has a great arm and accurate.
But yet to see him do a game winning drive.
Dak Presscot doesnt seem as talented but he is capable of game winning drives.

I dont rate Goff much at all.

Rogers is the king of Hail Marys

Just been in a average side. Otherwise has 3 or 4 rings.

 

[hindy111]

The missed extra point will cost Oakland.
Going for the 53yd field goal at 4th and 1 was also the wrong play.....Shpuld of punted or went for it.

 

[hindy111]

Oakland win. Carr with a gane winning last drive.
At 4th and 1 when on Chargers 35 and up 20-14 they had to go for it. A 53yd field goal was a risky play. Gaining the extra yard was more in their favour.

Then missing an extra point. In end defense stood up and Oakland are 5-4.Ends the Chargers season also.
4 more wins and may getting wild card.

 

[hindy111]

Bengals, Titans and Jaguars all at home. Need to win all those.

And pick up 1 or 2 wins on road

Kansas
Chargers
Jets
Broncos

Jets game most winnable.

Wow. Lamar Jackson is something special.

I haven’t seen any Baltimore games so far this year, watched their game against the Bengals today. He is going to be really hard to defend against.

He is.Some huge upsets this weekend. Kansas seem to be slipping. Rams arent a superbowl team. Next 3 weeks should show a lot.

Packers won ugly, very fortunate to win. Definitely punching well above their weight.

Atlanta getting over the Saints was a big surprise.

 

[hindy111]

Seemed like a wild game if anyone can fill me in. Lots of turnovers.
49rs should of won in O/T but missed the field goal. Could cost them the division. Seattle have a very tough run over the next month.

 

[T.S Quint]

I knew we were going to lose some time, but why did it have to be against those merkins?

I f**king hate Russell Wilson.

Lots of momentum swings, defence was the big winner of the day, which is surprising considering Seattle’s been pretty poor defensively this season.

Niners should have won but for the rookie kicker we had to play after Robbie Gould got injured last week. He was perfect in regular time but cracked under the pressure of a game winning field goal in overtime. Didn’t even come close to hitting it.
We gave Wilson one last chance to win the game and he took it. Letting him connect with his receiver on 3rd and 16 was disgraceful.
