So how about that football

[Exterous]

Whaaaaaat? Holy crap

 

[MrSquished]

HOLY SHIT WHAT A TD THERE BY ARIZONA! Hopkins was surrounded and still comes down with it clearly!

 

[Captante]

Wow what a finish!

 

[zinfamous]

damn. kinda needed AZ to lose, too, because Seattle been slipping.

but damn that was awesome.

 

[skyking]

Seattle done slipped

 

[JujuFish]

Man, that's a heartbreaking way to lose. Hopkins is so damn good.

Yeah that was a hell of a catch. Strong hands

 

[Captante]

Heavy weather blowing into Foxboro ... I'm in New Haven and my house was shaking from the wind! Not likely to be any 61 yard FG's tonight!

 

[Svnla]

How about them Fins? Another win (5 in a row, 2nd longest in the NFL) and with the loss for the Bills (thanks Murray), the Fins have the same number of losses as the Bills (3).

Could be the last game of the season (Fins vs. Bills) to determine the Division Champ? Fins lost the last game vs. Bills by 3 points. Stay tuned. Hopefully it will be down to the wire.

Seattle was way overrated because of the halo of their past defenses. Kirk Cousins was good coaching away from winning his first night game. An adjusting Cam Newton scored 30 on the them. That's how bad they are on D.

Yeah, I'm pulling for Smith but that's about it this year for the WFT. McLaurin and Gibson and Young are the future of that team, so much to build on. Haskins...still in heavy doubt. I'm hoping for a top 2 pick and honestly, I don't like any top QBs in the draft this year as obvious NFL prospects. (yeah, longhair in Clemson? I just don't buy it). Speaking of Tiger alums....I'd like to see the WFT grab pick #2 or something, and try to trade it to Houston for Watson and maybe a rd 3 pick or something. That would be...awesome. Houston looks to be in fire sale mode (which started last year), and I'd love to see Watson on what could be a much, much, much better team with a solid and legit QB.

Haskins is psychological baggage. Constant victim complex and self-serving ego. Dude wants to join the Hall of the Jeff George real quick.

He's the loser who whines everyone is against him when he never does his own damn homework, and pro football is a never-ending stream of homework(film study, playbook digestion, practicing with receivers).

I'm banking on the Fins. Allen looks to be a choker under pressure, even if Diggs is a true #1 he trusts. Allen still has moments of weakness and that Miami D can unleash the worst in QBs. He's like a white McNabb, but it's bird killers instead of worm killers.

Granted I've rarely seen Allen play due to geographical broadcast decisions but he basically pulled off a 4th quarter comeback under pressure. The D choked/Hopkins made an insane catch

Could be, I don't really know much about it. His inability to adjust and learn over the ~6 or so games over the last two seasons that he started are pretty telling, for sure.

He had what, 10 total games in college to set as example of his qualifications? Yeah, that's not a good look. When you're a guy with good tools, it's pretty easy to dominate over a field of mostly scrubs, without anyone really questioning you. If you don't spend enough time, over multiple seasons, to learn to work with your teammates, you're going to have a rude awakening when going up against an entire field of pros that suddenly have the same tools you have.

 

[KMFJD]

Don't worry Lions, you will still win this game! I know you have issues with losing games at the end, but one thing you do this year is you come to the NFC East to make yourself better.

Don't worry, and I would like to congratulate you on your win already!

...and wha, is that Cam Newton on the mic for this game? Did the Pats drop him or something, or does he get off time during a bye week to do stuff like this?

ah NVM, that's Aqib Talib. Could have sworn they said it was Cam at the start of the game...

Lion's are terrible and should have lost that game. Listining to Aqib was interesting, he started of a little rough but had a few good points to make latter on.

Oh please. Allen has 6 4th quarter comebacks since the start of last season.

He was another "Snyder overruled football people" pick.

So Gruden never wanted him. Rivera gave him a shot. He even apparently looked committed in the offseason, at least on the workout side.

But whatever his conduct was, he had the coaches go nuclear on him. Study/attitude is most likely the case, possibly teammates complaining as well.

Smith is showing what someone with commitment and willingness can do, even with a two-year hiatus due to a broken leg. Guys hit in stride, passes on point. A sense of competency. Haskins really hasn't gotten better.

Still prone to tossing ill-advised picks.

Well, man, he was pretty insightful, but man, sometimes he seemed a little nervous, man.

(Start a drinking game every time the poor rookie color guy said "man")

Interesting how nearly everything I've read about yesterday's game so far has seemed to focus on Allen "losing" the game and missed Kyler Murray and the Cardinals having "won" it. (which is my take)

My opinion of Allen and the Bills winning potential has not changed at all however it seems the Cards are better than I thought.

 

[Captante]

Eli Manning also had this issue .... frankly a far worse case.

Not sure Allen and the Bills will end up even winning one Superbowl but if I was forced to make the call now I'd say they have a decent shot.

Miami is also a talented young team but my opinion is that they are a way's behind the Bills. Let's see how things go once the league adjusts to Tua and he's not sneaking up on anyone before anointing him the next Elway/Montana.

Head to head right now at least I would pick Buffalo.

 

[JujuFish]

Personally, I would welcome a renewed Dolphins/Bills rivalry. Squish the Fish!

seriously. That was a 1 in 10,000 shot that Arizona pulled off to win that game. Allen did everything in "normal football world" to win that game at the end.

Your nick is named as a fish and you bashed the Fins? I can't wait to see the last game between them two. Probably couldn't see it live because all we have around here are either the Cowboys or Texans or Saints.

May the best team win.

 

[Torn Mind]

This year's draft class is off to a very powerful impact.

Perhaps in 3 years, this class might prove itself the best since that magic year of 1983.
