NFL (since 2016)

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

[Lee Trundle]

"And just as I say that, he fucks up. A win for the JETS!"

[Lee Trundle]

Lawrence is proving what a good QB he is here. Should get the Jags a win over the shit Jets. SNOW game in Seattle.

[ooooh Morley Morley]

What twerp benched Joe Burrow this week?

[zebthecat]

Watching Redzone - It does seem to be let's all drop catches day today apart from a stupendous catch from Tee Higgins (very tight double coverage but he was just bigger and stronger).

[Nutsin]

"Stafford with two more pics, last one gave the Vikes 1st and goal and of course they scored a T D so now it's 13-10. Stafford is having a nightmare. Just under threw a wide open receiver on a 3rd and 2. Poor Old Rams!"

[Nutsin]

"I'm watching the Rams play the Vikes""¶. Actually want the Rams to win as it's good for the Niners if the Vikes lose. Stafford is so overrated""¶. Throws a pick on his own 10yard line. Threw it straight to the Vikings defender, shocking throw! Only good QB in the NFC West is Wilson, rest of the starters are average at best."

[Norflundon]

Another game decided by the officials That's a shocking PI call against the browns

[Grumpster]

"If he was anything better than OK, we would have been 24-0 up in the game instead of 10-0, as the 2 open receivers he missed with throws my mum could have completed were shocking and unfortunately it happens most games. Same for most teams really, as decent QB's extremely thin on the ground currently."

"Jimmy G's OK. He was 26 of 32 for 320 yards, which isn't bad (if you think k that's bad, just look at any Jets QB's stats since 2008). His problem is that he turns the ball over at clutch moments just.a little too often, like many NFL QBs. That's why he'll never be elite level. He's just OK - nothing more or less. Some teams would kill for that at QB right now, but ambitious sides rightly want more. His problem is that these days fans don't even want to accept that ""OK""ù exists: it's either ""great""ù or ""shite""ù. So with Jimmy they opt for shite. He'd also do better in a different system/offence. 49ers are gearing up for TL."

[Mr. Burns]

"Hard luck Grumps, look forward to you paying my entry to the Cheltenham Naps again!!"

[Grumpster]

Jimmy G's accuracy is absolutely shocking.

[southbankbornnbred]

"Ahead of the NoShowBowl against the Jags, the Jets have found a new way to achieve new lows: our head coach has now gone down with Covid. So Saleh won't be on the sidelines. Not that he's made a blind bit of difference since being appointed. The only problem with him being missing, is that his OC and DC have been underperforming perhaps even more than him (certainly the DC). So this will be painful. Watching the second-worst team in the NFL play the worst team in the NFL - also currently without a full-time HC after sacking Meyer. No talent, no coaches and very few wins or ideas between them. Enjoy this one, folks. I'm going for a lights-out 35-34 to somebody! Either that or 0-0."

"Norflundon,have to agree ,some questionable decisions."

[cockney hammer]

good result for the rams beating the sea chickens

[Norflundon]

The bears shot themselves in foot a lot but fuck me there were some terrible officiating in that game I'd say that almost as bad as the raiders cowboys

[southbankbornnbred]

"TM - agree with those draft focuses. The other thing that Saleh could do, today, to improve the Jets is to start calling defensive plays. He needs to trust his own ability/history. One of the reasons I'm so massively disappointed in Saleh so far is that he is probably the best defensive mind at the franchise (all things are relative!). Yet he's left a lesser coach in charge of defense. He has no offensive expertise, was a successful DC and should have bought himself time as HC by shoring up our defense first - while he learned the rest of the job. Instead, If we start badly next season, he's probably for the chop at the end of 2022. So he hasn't helped himself. Which really is not clever and begs a lot of questions. He'll need to go 7-10 or 8-9 next season to keep his job. Possible, but (in a division with Belichick, the Bills and the improving Fish) I can't see that unless he drafts superbly in April."

[Nutsin]

Niners Baby!

[Takashi Miike]

*played pretty well*

[Takashi Miike]

"I think you drafted two good weapons in carter & moore. I watched the game against the eagles and you later pretty well but were weak against the tight end goddart. he should target a decent couple of linebackers and a good strong safety, it would instantly improve you"

[southbankbornnbred]

Grump - there has been no improvement whatsoever so far. Zilch. Nadda. Believe me. It might arrive. But don't hold your breath.

[southbankbornnbred]

"Fair point, Isaac. Although when two of those wins have been against us, I wouldn't be celebrating too hard! We are god awful, yet went in 17-10 up at half-time: our first half-time lead this season!"

[Grumpster]

"Would say the Jets have improved a little this year, but literally nothing anybody could do with such a shite roster. Take years turning that mob around."

[southbankbornnbred]

"And I am fed up hearing Saleh's regular refrain: ""there were some positives to take from this defeat...""ù We've been hearing that from every coach since 2009. Worst record of all NFL sides since 2010. It all feels like the Cleveland Browns did for 25 years!"

[IsaacHock]

Poor Fish? Thats our 6th win on the spin.

[southbankbornnbred]

"Yet more utter shite from Saleh's Jets tonight. Getting regularly walloped by a poor Fish side is a new low, even for us. This coach is a complete fraud and WAY out of his depth. Same old, same old."
