The NFL Thread

Threw a pick as well so not the best Sunday for him.

The Bills come from 17 down to beat the Ravens to bounce back from last week's defeat to Miami.

Jets have won it against Pittsburgh most likely with only 16 seconds left. Excellent final drive from Zach Wilson after two touchdowns from Kenny Pickett replacing Trubisky for the Steelers.

 

[Tony Towner]

Pickett in earlier than I would have thought given their next few games

 

[Jack Regan]

Seems they've come to realise Trubisky's ceiling pretty quickly, and with Pickett being a local their fans have been calling for it since week one (despite Tomlin saying he had no plans to put him in).

 

[Alan]

Figures that Pittsburgh would start to be shit the minute I wasn’t morally barred from liking them.

 

[Jack Regan]

Strange goings on in Vegas, a referee is carted off then the Raiders have just tried an onside kick with nearly twelve minutes of the second quarter remaining.

 

[Alan]

Arizona @ Carolina has been brutally bad.

 

[Tony Towner]

Remember when the AFC West was supposed to be the best division in football?

 

[Alan]

I’m honestly not surprised. Kingsbury is a moron and McDaniels is a fraudulent prick.

Kingsbury might not last the season, but I think LV are stuck with McDaniels for at least another year.

Should have been in from the start of the season. Trubisky looked a stupid deal before the season and looks even worse now.

Pickett looked good, the box score doesn't match this but 2 ints bounced off receivers hands and 3rd a hail Mary.

I'd have not picked him, rolled with Rudolph and picked CJ Stroud next year but 'the standard is the standard' or some other stupid Tomlinism.

I suppose the old Tomlin has never had a losing season stat made them think they'd not be picking that high whoever was at QB, I mean they've had a statue there for the last 2 years and still were competitiveish

Stroud is likely to go number 1 and Young 2 with a lot of QB needy teams going to be early in the draft order and a few others with draft capital to move up

Tomlin has never had to play without a franchise QB. As immobile as Big Ben was he could still dissect other teams in the No Huddle which is why we won so many 1 score games.

I expect us to be picking in the top 5 next year, we won't choose a QB so it'll be a OT, Edge or Corner. Will Anderson paired with TJ Watt would give me immense satisfaction.

My views on college football are other people's in reality, but many rate Anderson 6 months away as the best prospect coming out this year. Alan is your Bama guy

The Saints being at the head of this queue.

Afraid not, that pick is in Philly because of the trade up for Olave

They'll have to do something to get it back, can't be having no QB for another season.

I watch whatever is on BT on a Saturday after the football which obviously isn't a huge sample size but he looks every bit what he's been billed as. There's a lot of dline talent though, Carter from Georgia and bresse at Clemson both studs.

I wonder if the Bucs will give Brady some room to sort out his shit.
Getting divorced from Gisele must hurt with his 3 kids wanting to see more of Daddy then the daft sod un-retires.
What are they at, 1 touchdown a game so far?
Got to have a influence on his game.

 

[Alan]

Will Anderson is the best defensive player I've ever seen at the college level.

When he retires he is already signed up to the biggest broadcasting expert guest deal in the history of televised sport so I suspect Daddy is still going to be away just plenty.

 

[Tony Towner]

His eldest kid already doesn't live with him as he left his mother for Gisele while she was pregnant. Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg should have kicked the shit out of him
