Tom-pa Bay getting another offensive weapon

RB Leonard Fournette has an agreement in principle to join Buccaneers.

fuck you!

i wanted to go to the races today but i can't even do that, let alone sit at home doing that

mariner4life

@nzzp eat absolutely all of the dick

NTA

Sorry gents I already went out to dinner on Monday night for the anniversary.

It did NOT result in the kind of eating I wanted 😐 but the barramundi was nice.

nzzp

fun game today, enjoyed it.

Mods - maybe update the title to take out Bubble NZ. Bet the NFL is glad they didn't come over after all 😐

NTA

@mariner4life It was NOT nice compared to what I actually wanted out the evening.

Honestly cannot remember last time I got the goods on my birthday or our anniversary. For her birthday my gift is "leave you the fuck alone there ya go" but the rest should be a little more active I think!

shark

@NTA ok i think we get it.

Denver lose MNF to the Titans

Mainly because while leading in the 4th, the defense earns starting position inside the Tennessee half, and they go three-and-out.

Of course then Tannehill goes the length to earn the game winning FG

In other games, Cam Newton scores two touchdowns leading the fucking Patriots to a win

The Washington Football Team won a game.

The Browns still suck

TOM BRADY IS FINISHED LOL

San Fran lost to the Cards

I reckon Arizona is the sleeper team this year, they looked really good.

Yet more evidence the Texans are morons - who the hell trades away DeAndre Hopkins? Indefensible.

KiwiMurph

Chiefs I think will end up going back-to-back as champions. Their path back to the Super Bowl looks clear as there aren't many other contenders in the AFC aside from the Ravens and their QB hasn't won a single playoff game yet.

In a few years the Bengals might be a contender though. Joe Burrow looked really good yesterday.

Seahawks get up and win a great game against the Pats.

Cam Newton is great fun, and fantastic to watch. Played really well, can't wait to see what Belichek will do with him

Bovidae

And the Cowboys came from 20 pts down in the 1st Q and then 19 pts at HT to take their first lead of the game with a FG as time expired.

they play some absolutely humdingers. Luckily I was unspoiled after that, so could also watch the Ravens Texans, with two outstanding young QBs. NFL is back to being fun I think- one of the interceptions by the Ravens was absolutely pure athleticism and timing; just sensational to watch.

also, a player got ejected for head to head contact. Fantastic - it's that sort of brutal hit that has to be stamped out ... not much you can do about the repeated contact, but you can stop teh big stuff.

barbarian

The injury toll has been brutal, but I agree the games have been heaps of fun. Saints vs Raiders should be good today.

But whoever is setting the schedule needs their head checked. Can't wait for Thursday night football, this week it's a blockbuster clash between... the Jags and the Dolphins. Blergh.

nzzp

@barbarian Thursday night matchups usually suck donkey balls. Not sure why, it should be awesome time slot

nzzp

Las Vegas raiders still just seems wrong somehow. Like the Hamilton Blues 😐

You've got that right - 49ers lost their best defensive player and another defensive lineman for the season to torn ACLs.

It will be interesting what comes out of the NFL investigating the field quality of that game in New York (49ers have to play there again this coming week). You have to wonder about some of these artificial turfs - it's not like it's a dome either it's an open air stadium - billion dollar franchises that can't sort out a field.

The Broncos have been decimated. Tank o'clock

Chiefs look unstoppable in the AFC.

They play the Patriots and Bills in October so will be interesting if their of those teams can pose a threat.

@KiwiMurph just watched Chiefs Ravens.

If Mahomes isn't in the league, Jackson would be getting legendary status. Unfortunately, he's up against a force of nature. The balls that Mahomes threw were unreal. Shovel pass to a fullback, a fat guy touchdown... he's just insane. What a player. So lucky to wind up with Andy Reid, too, who is one of the great offensive minds.

prior to that caught up on the Hawks Cowboys game. What a doozy, such great entertainment. Wilson is starting to get the respect he deserves, and his deep ball throwing is just amazing.

NFL is a lot of fun at the moment, with plenty of talent to watch. Hoping the positive Covid tests don't rain on the parade

barbarian

Yeah I'm loving the games so far. Super psyched for TNF, can't wait to see the checks notes Jets against the Broncos. Arghhhh.

But other than that, the quality has been top notch. Mahomes and the Chiefs look unstoppable. They dismantled the Ravens D like they were the Dolphins. Hard to see where they lose, could be to a team like the Bills if Allen gets on a roll and they go blow-for-blow. Certainly you'll be hard pressed keeping them under 30.

mariner4life

@nzzp I watched 3 very entertaining games. Seahawks v Cowboys was insane because of the errors.

Packers v Saints was a QB shoot out

Then yesterday was impressive. If anything the scoreline flattered the Ravens, as the chiefs started taking the piss in the 3rd.
