The NFL Thread

I'll just agree with Brandon Beane...

Well know he's a bit of a cunt isn't he?

Jordan Love got paid too.

Packers signing QB Jordan Love to four-year, $220 million contract extension

 

[Tony Towner]

He got hammered by pundits for taking the deal he did rather than playing on his 5th year option.. Turned out well for him.

Interesting stuff

Good news with the season just a month away. The old ATN subreddit somehow managed to get hold of it this morning which kinda stole their thunder somewhat.

Vikings are gonna need another QB unless they really are going to play Darnold

Justin Jefferson is not liking that news.

 

[Deano]

Darnold will play. The Vikings are still rebuilding, not got a chance to compete for the Superbowl this year anyway..

Shame, I know it's pre season but McCarthys first outing looked encouraging.

 

[Carrotdude]

Darnold was going to start anyway I’m pretty sure but I’m assuming the plan was to get McCarthy in at some point through the season depending on performances.

 

[Alan]

Darnold’s okay. Probably fine for a rebuild year and I’m not sure how McCarthy will translate to the NFL level anyway.

Quarterback or receiver?

 

[jd1981]

Quarterback, they’re like the Neves equivalent in football

 

[Tony Towner]

I thought receiver was a bit vanilla. Nobody really stood out as interesting apart from Kittle and St.Brown's dad at opposite ends of the spectrum.

 

[jd1981]

I agree pressure QB are under is immense sounds corny but the players seem a bit more genuine I know the cameras on them but a lot less arrogant

I'm watching it at the moment. Not sure about vanilla but it lacks any great interest.

Which is a real shame as I'm sure the characters are there.

Is this any good?

Perhaps sanitised is a better word. For example there's credible reporting that Adams was properly losing his shit when McDermott was HC, calling him out for being useless and saying he wanted out, none of that was shown or more than mildly hinted at.
