Re: 2017 NFL Season
I agree that the quality of play is down and I blame the QBs and some coaching. So much inconsistent play. Of course, more teams, more QBs. Making the conference finals every year is so dependent on having an all-pro QB.
Edit: Encouraging though to see Watson off to a good start as a rookie, though, for Houston. Had a good game vs. NE.

he reached out his hand to help Taylor up, and then pulled it away doing the "psych!" move. That's pretty harmless; its not like he teabagged him, but i expect any player to get called for taunting for something like thatMonkey_Driven wrote:Oh please.Mecca wrote:i mean, it certainly fits tauntingMonkey_Driven wrote:Horrendously bad.Electromatic wrote:Monkey_Driven wrote:Can we talk about how completely idiotic and ridiculous that personal foul call on Viller Miller was? Shit like that is why people get frustrated with the league.
sure, it was a bad call.

I go back and watch old games fairly often and I don't see a huge difference, and if anything a lot of times things look faster and more precise nowadays. I'm also fairly certain that the current pool of active players contains a possible GOAT candidate at most positions.
If you mean things like replays, replacement refs, games early in the season being rough, I can see that, but again, I think it's somewhat overstated. My main beef is the commercials and they've already had to scale them way back.

Re: 2017 NFL Season
PHILADELPHIA fans are the worst! ESPN or SI or someone did a survey years ago of all 4 major sports. Eagles, Phillies, 76ers, and Flyers were all in the top 10 for worst fans.doug rr wrote:eagles fans are the fucking worst and they roll into LA this weekend..I want to sell my tix if i can so i can watch the broncos/stupid ass raiders game
I don't think I'd be an Eagles fan at all if I was from out there.

Re: 2017 NFL Season
Philly fans are the worst. I've experienced Eagles fans at Gillette and Flyers fans at the Garden in Boston.
Yeah, I know Boston and NY fans are terrible, too, but at least we have a sense of humor about the hate and most of it is playful. Philly is just garbage. Filthy people. Smelly, too. I think they throw batteries on the field a lot.

Re: 2017 NFL Season
I've never seen a team get hosed the way the Falcons are getting hosed today.
There's shit refereeing and there's cheating.
It's cheating today. A free touchdown that wasn't and and interception return that wasn't.
