I've officially decided to stop watching football as though it is a competitive sport. It's officially sports entertainment. The NFL and it's league offices have scripted how this season, along with the last few, will go. They clearly decide the outcome of games regularly... It's no longer a competition it is a "sport" concerned with scripted outcomes. I won't watch it with true hope anymore and simply enjoy whatever weekly soap opera storyline they are feeding me. What a sad day all around. Win or lose tonight, at this point I don't care about anything from the NFL anymore.

Two consecutive games with these "human errors" conveniently going the way of the same team...  that's not an error.

How about that call? The refs aren't out to get us. Sometimes teams are more unlucky than others.

Hey, if you want to believe that Hulk Hogan's leg** drop is truly the most devastating move ever... I won't burst your bubble. This whole damn thing is a sham to make money at this point. Nothing real about these outcomes.

I've seen Cam take three different shots to the head tonight without one being called. Denver has gotten every call they needed for 2 straight games. The NFL wants eyeballs on the screen and don't care what else happens.

 

0proof.. NFL just got more eyeballs by extending this drive for us instead of ending it with 2 minutes and a bunch of knees left.

 

** thanks Lomez

That's actually my exact point. At least twice tonight he has been hit high and low at the same time (chop block) while taking contact to the head. That's technically 2 penalties at the same time.. The almighty NFL has called 1. They called the one personal foul just to get it negated by a lesser penalty. So the game would continue and keep more eyeballs on the screen. It's all bullshit.

At what point does football begin to be scripted? Not high school...Not college...at what point does it start?

      The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman.

      And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!

      If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
