NFL 2019

I don’t know how James Bettcher still has a job. He wanted the defense to be loaded up with his former Cardinals players who know the system yet it continues to be a complete schematic failure.

Perhaps his plan failed when he decided Cardinals players were what you should build around

The Lions have stopped torturing their fans and have definitely pivoted to wallowing in mediocrity for an indefinite period of time.

No, that was a cat. See above for more details.

To be fair, the Cardinals had a great defense for several years under Bettcher.  But the only former Cardinal they've brought in whose looked worth a crap is Markus Golden.  If you're going to advocate for bringing in your old players, you'd best be able to back it up.

Anyway, it's one thing to lose a game you were expected to lose, it's another to lose and there be next to no positives to take out of it.  The defense is still broken and Dallas was able to move the ball at will with no pass rush present, if not for those early fluky turnovers they could've put the game away much earlier than they did.  DeAndre Baker continues to look like a bust, gets burned in coverage all the time and when he doesn't, he usually commits a penalty.  He was handsy in college and clearly still hasn't figured out yet that you can't get away with a lot of that stuff in the NFL.

The OL despite all the work that went into it still looks awful.  On any given day three of the five will struggle, and either the OL or Jones has a very blatant tell because the defense seemed to pick up every play instantly, even the quick dump off passes guys were swarmed instantly.  Jones turns the ball over far too much, and on the rare occasion he actually has time, none of the receivers can get any separation.  But worst of all is the Barkley playcalling.  One of the few negatives on him coming out of college was that he struggled to push the pile.  What do the Giants do?  90% of his runs are straight into the offensive line for little to no gain.  How about running a damn pitch play?  Shurmur is horrendous.

Where did the cat even come from? Giants stadium is in the middle of a swamp.

Donald Trump drained it remember?

Even men with steel hearts love to see a cat on the pitch.

Lives there, apparently there’s quite a few.  They help keep the rats at bay.

Congratulations to Josh Jacobs for his victory over Gardner Minshew for OROY.

Apparently Trubisky asked to have the televisions turned off in the locker room because the analysts on there were criticizing him? What a weenie.

Apparently he got drafted to the DC team in the XFL, same team that dude from my alma mater went to 

 

I remember football being terrible when I was an undergrad.  Surprised someone made it to even XFL.

Maybe he should be an NFL caliber QB.

I rely on you to tell me what people are saying about the Raiders because outside of Meacon’s ribbing, they sure aren’t saying much on here.

Josh Jacobs has really great vision, very impressive for a rookie

We're slowly growing on fans, but the media still hasn't given up on trying to act like the Gruden signing and Mack trade were bad ideas.

Edit: and yeah, Jacobs is great. So many rookies are stepping up for this team. Renfro, Ingold, Ferrell turned up tonight, and Crosby was in Rivers face all night long.

Huge win.

Will be nice to see you guys add true #1 receiver who isn’t a total head case in the off-season too
