Official week 2 other games thread

They fired their OC today. Somehow Marvin Lewis has survived 15 years.

Dear Lord ! I cannot believe the Bengals haven't 'FIRED ME " !

[woodbuck27]

Sam Bradford out. Case Keenum starts at QB for Vikings.

Following that Bad News for Viking Fans, any confidence and a 'W' in Pittsburg?:

[woodbuck27]

Case Keenum isn't getting it done. If only there were a vet QB former starter who would put the Vikings in a better position than they are in with dreck at backup QB. Vikes defense is not impenetrable, but Steelers have some weapons.

At 37, @tonyromo is younger than both starting quarterbacks (Tom Brady, 40 and Drew Brees, 38) of his game today.

I would recommend viewing any game with Romo/Nantz on CBS. They haven't drilled the former football player out of him and its all routes/patterns, time in pocket and offensive personnel setups. He is claiming without Edelman and versus the Sants, the Patriots have pulled out the old Charlie Weis/Ron Erhardt offense from the first Super Bowl wins (lots of fullback/Burkhead).

Lotta fun to listen to. he doesn't have a big announcer voice so you have to listen closely.

RE: Tony Romo: "... he doesn't have a big announcer voice so you have to listen closely " See above

Comment woodbuck27:

"Wow. C'mon ESPN, pairing Beth Mowins with Rex Ryan is setting her up for failure--or should I say, setting her up WITH failure?" @DavesData posted.

Thank goodness that Romo doesn't have a voice like the woman they teamed up with Rex Ryan or Beth Mowins and a 'finger nails on a chalkboard' comparison of her voice, would be a compliment.

Does Beth hang around 'Sexy' Rex too much?



IMO it's Tony Romo and a 'cake walk' over Rex Ryan and their NFL broadcasting debuts.

"You can tell Rex Ryan has not done this before," @walkerRcarey wrote.

"Even Jeb Bush thinks Rex Ryan is surprisingly low energy as a color commentator," @erichustedt wrote.

Sorry to be a contrarian, but Romo is the anti-Ray Scott. Guy is irritating to me. Talks too much and a low-talker, mumbler to boot. The contrast with Jim Nantz is striking. I really don't think he'll last.

The only thing more lacking than competent NFL Game Officials is decent Broadcasting Teams.

So kids ! There ... 'possible direction and a career choice'.

[woodbuck27]

Colts and Cardinals tied 13 - 13. Cardinals line up for game winning FG. Colts call TO at last second. Guy makes kick. Then misses it on the second try. I really hate that TO. Bush League. They ought to do away with it.

The same Bush League call cost the LA Chargers and their newly drafted Place Kicker Korean-born 'Younghoe Koo' in Week 1; and in exactly the same way. Are the Chargers cursed !?

That Poor Young Man' missed a FG again yesterday (with 10 seconds left on the clock, Younghoe Koo just misses, wide right ) in their Game Vs Miami (Week 2) and at Home.

Here is that miss on video, Gheeessh, I had the Chargers in my Pro Pickem':

I checked the Media and reaction to this:

Lacy inactive for Seahawks. Not injured.

Once Upon A Time: The newest NFL Innovation:

The Eddie Lacy Body Shaper:



I thought If it can do it for her:



It could do it for me !



Then my life changed when I lost that sucker !

[woodbuck27]

So..... imagine your a Cincinnati fan.... I know your head is exploding !

I have watched this team fall apart in way too many games and as a Pro Pickem Guy they scare the 'H' out of my confidence and any of their games.

What is with their HC Marvin Lewis and his IMO too long tenure with 'the Bengals?

What is with their Starting QB Andy Dalton !?

Now I find this:

Some Bengals Players Reportedly Want Team to Consider Signing Colin Kaepernick

By: SCOTT POLACEK .... SEPTEMBER 17, 2017

[mmmdk]

It's a trap!

[woodbuck27]

It's a trap!

I just sent you a Private Message mmmdk.



I don't pass out a lot of hints and Pro Pickem but here is one:

Do NOT ever give the Cincinnati Bengals a lot of confidence.

I don't think there is any other NFL Team that has let me and confidence in them down ...more !

Packer fans like to say: Da Bears suck !

Personally I say: The Bengals SUCK !!

Andy Dalton's days as Bengals' starter could be numbered

Bengals QB Andy Dalton could be benched soon if his play doesn't improve as Cincinnati searches for an offensive identity.

[woodbuck27]

Which Team wins Week 2 MNF Game?

Detroit Lions @ New York Giants

[QBME]

Anybody else notice the number of empty seats? Maybe it's a New York (actually New Jersey) thing?

[woodbuck27]

I want to see Matthew Stafford earn that huge paycheck again tonight.

Will O'Dell Beckham Jr. at 85% Full Strength be effective enough to make a noticeable difference for the Giants?

[woodbuck27]

Leave it to the Officials to disagree with 'the Man in the Booth' who felt the ball was coming out (fumbled) before Eli Mannings knee was on the field.

The Lions recovery of the ball and TD was therefore erased.

[woodbuck27]

There's redemption and a lovely pass and TD for the Lions...7-0 Detroit.
