Week 4 other games

[Rastak]

Rams look super tough...Vikings defense not so much.....interesting game.

[mraynrand]

Put that Donald sack on a tape and show it to Matthews. That's how you sack a QB in today's NFL.

Yea I saw that, sad it’s come to that.

well, at least we know what's legal!

[mraynrand]

Rhodes just has a cramp.

Was Brandon Cooks really that expensive? A little speed would be nice in the receiving corps.

[Rastak]

well, at least we know what's legal!

That’s exactly what they want....lay them in a bed of roses. I liked it when Carl Eller destroyed the guy on the blindside....oh well.

[mraynrand]

That Venom movie looks terrifying (says the guy who always carves a venom pumpkin to frighten little kids at halloween)

[pbmax]

That sack might render my complaint moot, but with 3 TO they should have gone for it on 4th down.

Too far back, too dangerous.

Pass rush makes a lot of coaching decisions look smart.

I hear ya, but the risk reward to me didn’t make sense...

[pbmax]

Too far back, too dangerous.

Two passes and 20 seconds to the immortal Treadwell, and the Vikings were at midfield first and ten. For the cost of 20 seconds the Rams netted 15 yards of field position by punting.

[mraynrand]

Good game, two very good teams.

I thought it was a good game....bummed none the less.

Vikings have tough schedule to start. They can beat Philly on the road - and have ten days to get ready. I don't know what affect the whole Griffen thing will have but could be rough. Hate to see something like that, even for a rival.

[Tony Oday]

The Vikings are spiraling. No run game, their pass defense is a joke and the pass rush took a hit losing Griffen, though I hope he gets his head right that ducks on a human level f football.

Plus sides for the Vikings is they can throw the ball and they have a kicker that doesn't kick, fall over, miss, then throw up on himself.

Yea, I wouldn't wish that on anybody.

I wouldn't bury them just yet. Very tough road stretch for them right now.

Yea, they gotta play better upfront and get that defense squared away. They are not dead yet by any means.

Will be interesting to see how the Packers play against Buffalo. I should be able to watch that game since the Vikings already played.

Not burying them but man if they can't get their lines better they have no real chance.

[mraynrand]

This was probably the best 'tackle' of Gurley the whole game:

[yetisnowman]

Trubisky with 5 Tds in the first half.

[mraynrand]

Trubisky > Rodgers

[Rastak]

Trubisky > Rodgers



Wouldn't go that far....lol


They do however, lead the division.

[smuggler]

Colts with a nice comeback against the Texans. Bengals knocking on the door in Atlanta.

E: Falcons defense is pretty damn bad this year.

[Fritz]

Lions with yet another close-but-no-cigar loss on the road to the Cowboys.

This means they will beat the Packers next week.

[smuggler]

Colts would rather lose than tie, go for it on 4th and 4 from their 44 with less than a minute remaining, lose game.

[mraynrand]

Cleveland may actually have a QB

[mraynrand]

Randall blows coverage on a bomb and Raider receiver drops easy TD

They gave up a half game for no good reason.

Randall blows coverage on a bomb and Raider receiver drops easy TD

This somehow makes me feel good.

[gbgary]

damarius randall with an int in oak.

damarius randall with an int in oak.

Dix seemed to play better, but man oh man do they need Brice to play better. Packers probably need an upgrade, but I am not yet sure Randall would have been it.

[mraynrand]

Fun watching Packers: Tretter snaps ball into his own ass for turnover, then Nelson catches TD as Randall arrives late.

[mraynrand]

Randall is feast/famine. Makes some good plays, followed by head-scratchers.

i don't think brice was bad today. got to give him time. it's only his 9th start i think. randall is still a cle backup i believe.

Was he using a shotgun?

cle goes up on oak.

[mraynrand]

Refs call early whistle on clear forced fumble of Carr; earlier blew early whistle on Lynch who was spinning out of a tackle. Officiating has to be better.

[mraynrand]

Chubbers with another TD!!!

[mraynrand]

0-4??!!

They stink - and what dopes trading Mack....

[MadScientist]

0-4??!!

Good thing they locked him down with a shit-ton of money for the next several years.

[mraynrand]

Refs screwed up again

[Rastak]

Piss poor throw by Mayfield.

[pbmax]

Raiders deciding to kick that first OT FG are very lucky it did not turn against them. That kicker was new, it was on the dirt and he missed each kick over 45 yards.

Should have either gone for it or punted. Carr had a monstrous poor play on the sack that basically took them out of FG range. They had an overload blitz on his right and sent everyone out in the pattern. Clean shot to QB after he held the ball too long. no routes in middle of field. Looked oddly familiar.

[ThunderDan]

Boy, Pitt D is getting gashed.

[esoxx]

0-4??!!

http://deadhitsports.com/files/2014/09/Jon-Gruden-Raiders-coach-chucky-face-640x415.jpg

Fake news.

[ThunderDan]

Balt fumbles at the 1 and instead of being up 21-6, Pitt marches for a TD and 14-14 tie.

[mraynrand]

Fake news??!!

FIFY

That Carr fumble /whistle was one of the most egregious blown calls I've seen in some time. He literally fumbled as he was hit, which was about to be recovered for a Browns TD..and they ruled him down "in the grasp."

[ThunderDan]

PITT D gave up 451 to Baltimore.

Their system has been broken longer than the Packers D. Its very strange.

As colon-wraith said last night, they have no secondary, so they can't dial up the pass rushes they like. Also, the loss of Shazier has not been properly addressed. His speed was essential to their interior D - Baltimore just ruined them with TEs running away from very slow LBs (including Watt).

The inability to replace Shazier is an organizational failure. Their whole defense was reliant on ONE player? That's just stupid.

Like I said, I think it's one factor. Their secondary seems to be suspect, but that could just be Burnett. :)

Their secondary is awful. I just hate the whole narrative some give (not you) whining about Shazier still.

Oh, I see. Yeah, I've heard some of that from friends who are Steeler Fans. They are still angry at the NE TD going-to-the-ground game. They have bigger problems. But the Shazier thing is just another example of how a loss of a key first round player/pick can really hurt a team. You think you have that spot all taken care of for 5-10 years and then boom it's gone. Like Neck Collins...or Randall (lol).

[pbmax]

Kansas City seems upset by the results of the baseball tiebreakers or something. Refusing to play, well into the 4th Quarter.

I’m confused about what race Mahomes belongs to. Watching on the Tube, Mahomes looks like he’s a member of the Great Aryan Race in full uniform. Then he takes off his helmet and i’m like, what the fuck?

It needs to be red!
