State of the NFL

NFL really started losing me during SB 50. Carolina lost, someone has to. But I have never seen such a ridiculous amount of bias in refereeing. Opening game 2016, Cam is headhunted, nothing. He gets told you're not old enough to get that call. Brady or Rodgers gets a finger touch on the helmet and it's roughing the passer. It's not just Carolina that deals with this. The NFL has its darling players and franchises and more and more, games feel scripted like WWE. Goodell has been a terrible commissioner for the NFL. It's hard to demand integrity from players when the league office has none.

Old soul reporting.

I thought it was a great game, what do expect Dallas to do against TB and their #1 rush defensive? TB has vampire Brady, goodwin, evans, gonk, and Browns crazy ass.... Matchups favor passing. Yea I love old school ball, but this didnt fit the old guy mad at current times.

 

I will say like many, I was dying for real NFL, that for sure made me over look all the passing. I still think the game was one of the best openers in recent times. Close scores, either team could have won, and came down to last few minutes?? I'll take that action alll day. Save my get off the lawn feelings for twatter, onlyfans, media etc

I remember when the ball was played at the spot where it landed, no hash mark bullsht. Out of bounds? It was placed a yard from that sideline spot. FG's from the sideline were always exciting. So don't talk to me about what is changing and what isn't. An old saying, “In this world you're either growing or you're dying so get in motion and grow.” - Lou Holtz

If only all change was growth...

    • That argument could be used for actual trolls. “If you don’t like it find somewhere else to post” is just silly. Some of us are just letting you know, you are sounding like a broken record on these threads. It’s just some constructive criticism. You don’t have to change your ways. I doubt you will. Just wanted to make sure you were aware. Feel free to deflect and use one of those GIFs again. 
    • It went from he has to jump to he has to bend his hips. That’s changing it. I showed you clips of him throwing deep without jumping which means he doesn’t always have to. I liked and like Stroud better so I’m not really a Bryce defender. Just think you don’t have to make up things when critiquing our QB like he has to jump to throw it deep. There is plenty of ammo there without those exaggerations. Oh yeah the “you don’t know ball” argument. Classic. 
    • I get the rookie QB formula and fully expected to see it implemented. Oh well. For the run game there was no or very little under center stuff until a good ways into the year. At least that is how I am remembering it. And no deep throwing - so stacked boxes which you can say chicken or egg on why.  Hard to run like that.  The QB that people said was so great was pulled for a designated Hail Mary thrower. That’s pretty unusual. And may speak to why we saw few deep balls in some part, along with the OL. To ignore that stuff means you aren’t working with all of the information when you try to mentally model or project what it might be like on the field.  Me, I have a slice of hope that he could maybe be NFL average but getting him to be a plus type of QB is a huge job. It depends on designing the playbook with certain values at the foundation that have to be adhered to first . You have to integrate the other pieces around this one guy’s skill set because he is a real outlier. And he has to learn the under center skill set. Maybe put that Only Positive thread back up people can go there if they don’t want to deal with rightly frustrated fans.
