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."

[Takashi Miike]

"yes, brandon marshall who's been to the pro bowl six times, and averages 1000 yards, almost thirteen yards a catch and almost ten tds a year since being drafted"

[crystal falace]

"As in brandon marshall who's never had a playoff appearance in his career? And zcough yeah its either mext week or the week after i believe, bye came at the right time for us, need to get healthy, missing some key pieces against the titans"

[ironsofcanada]

Takashi Miike 1:12 Mon Nov 19 Too many years follow the 'Aints to make me that confident this early but I am getting there.

[Takashi Miike]

"Ioc, said weeks ago they're my pick to win the superbowl. now i've just seen brandon marshall on the sidelines im even more convinced"

[ironsofcanada]

Saints rolling again. Even with some receiver injury issues. Defence needs to mature to go all the way but they are probably even more fun to watch than ever.

[Far Cough]

"crystal, I think we play you this season?"

[crystal falace]

"Seems like teams get so amped up to play the pats treating it like their superbowl, they've lost to the jags and lions befor the titans and they both completely shit the bed after winning their big game"

[Takashi Miike]

"i love Colt but he hadn't played for almost two and a half years, amazing how he's just stepped up. AP levels it"

[Takashi Miike]

are the nfl looking in to that pats result last week? must be dubious considering how shjt the titans are :.)

[crystal falace]

"McCoy is one of the better backups in the league, could still contend for the division with him i think, the oline injuries are the killer"

[Takashi Miike]

haha and then colt mccoy comes in and throws a td pass straight away :.)

[Takashi Miike]

"i didn't see him smiling grumps, think that was a grimace shows how jinxed we are. we lose the rb we drafted before the season starts, almost the whole of the o-line is fucked and now smith is done for the season. the snyder curse"

[Grumpster]

"Fucking ouch, broken leg for Alex Smith. And then sums up what cunts footballers are with the play acting, but taking it like a man and even having a smile while being carted off!!!"

[El Scorchio]

Bloody hope so Miike. Was looking less shit on Monday after getting in some linemen who can actually run block and pass protect a bit.

[cockney hammer]

can not see the rams beating the kansas city chiefs

[Takashi Miike]

i think you'll win. you have a half decent secondary and the bucs make plenty of mistakes

[El Scorchio]

I'll be at the Giants Buccs game tomorrow. WHICH TEAM WANTS IT LESS?

[Takashi Miike]

"southbank, make a good offer and he'll sign. the next draft seems to be packed with loads of quality defensive linemen"

[southbankbornnbred]

"Some media in the States, citing 'sources' in Pittsburgh, are reporting that it's a 'foregone conclusion' that Bell signs for the Jets. I'm not against that idea (although I think the Jets have more pressing priorities). But I strongly suspect that those sources are getting a bit carried away. Bell is nobody's mug, as his stand-off with Pittsburgh has shown (personally, I think he should have signed again). So I doubt he will commit to the Jets - or any side for that matter - until he knows more about the coaching situation for 2019. Bowles' neck is not just on the line, it's virtually in the guillotine. Unless there is a massive turnaround in form for the remainder of the Jets' season then Bowles is more than likely to be sacked. They are 3-7 right now, and have two games against Belichick's Patsies coming up. So another losing record is almost certain, which would see the end of Bowles. Bell is unlikely to make any commitment until he knows who is likely to replace Bowles and who his OC is likely to be. Which is understable - he'd be mad not to. Why would anybody join the Jets unless they could see a path toward improvement?"

[southbankbornnbred]

"TM - the Jets could do with ANYBODY who can move the sticks a few times a game: that's how bad we've got under Bowles! The serious point is that Bell would walk into the Jets side backwards because, offensively, it is so poor. But we probably need a complete rebuild on that side of the ball once Bowles has gone (either mid or post-season: it looks inevitable unless there is a major turnaround). That will probably start with an O-line that can protect Darnold before somebody kills him, and a top-class receiving target for him. So a big money RB would be a luxury. But I'd take him: I've always rated Bell and, as you say, I don't actually think he was demanding that much from the Steelers. They just kept asking him to defer a big money deal (most likely until Ben has retired) and he said no."

[Mr. Burns]

Rams - Chiefs going back to LA as the pitch in the Azteca stadium is fucked. Shambles.

[Takashi Miike]

"zeb, i think they've been behind in so many games this season so they've had to ditch the running game as they've mostly been playing catch up. barkley's a great signing but i think they finally need to plan for manning's replacement"

[Takashi Miike]

"they're talking about the jets (sorry southbank), the bucs and raiders, though for some reason the eagles are also being quoted, fuck knows how they fit him and ajayi in the same team to be honest, i don't think he was asking for a lot. apparently he just wants a couple of years guaranteed money on the next contract, nothing ridiculous, so i can see plenty of teams matching his demands"

[zebthecat]

Who is that TM? Just had a quick look at which teams have the worst rushing stats this season to see who could really do with a class rusher and it isn't pretty. What really stood out was that the Giants are second worst. is their O-line that bad?

[Takashi Miike]

he may as well retire if the bookies have it right as to who's favourite to sign him :.)
