I'm shocked he's still in the game. That's a potential career ender... hoping for the best for Adams. I wouldn't be shocked if Trevathan gets a shoulder to the knee by a guard.
That has to be one of the worst calls ever. Ball wasn't even close to being tipped. Refs just making it up at this point.
Wow, 2 game ban for Trevathan. I honestly thought they'd either puss out and just fine him, or give him 1 game max. Good for them.
These London games really piss me off from a fantasy football standpoint. I often work 6 days a week and sleep in on Sundays. Have to get up at a reasonable fricken time because Goodell is intent on ruining professional football for the sake of going global to countries that have little interest in the game. I wonder how much the players hate it. Harbaugh supposedly screwed up last week by getting the team off the plane and right into practice on Friday. It showed. They had to have been severely jet lagged with that performance and he's generally a pretty level-headed coach.
I was positive he'd get a suspension (the condemnation from everyone was too universal, and the ongoing CTE crisis too much in the news, for him to only be fined), but thought it would only be one game. I'm definitely surprised by two games. I think we'd better get used to it - the hits that used to be the ones they glamorized are now going to lead to suspensions, and players will either have to adapt or literally pay the price.
The fuck am I doing up this early watching a game between two mediocre teams... If Cutler can't do anything against this godawful Aints defense, he needs to re-retire after the game. Ajayi came to play, anyway.
Wow, is Adrian Peterson ever going to play for the Saints? He's playing less than 20% of the offensive snaps, and has a grand total of 27 carries in 3 3/4 games. It seems to have only taken training camp for them to completely regret the always puzzling decision to sign him.
Well, you can add another team to the list of really bad teams that will be competing for the #1 pick.
Cutler is poison. That's a good roster minus him. Put Matt Moore in. I saw a clip of them running a wildcat look with Cutler split out with his hands on his hips and didn't move one step. Case Keenum played well last week. I'm surprised Teddy Fieldgoal isn't playing though. Is he still recovering? He's over the year mark since the ACL injury. Maybe we can grab him on the cheap this offseason to lead some field goal drives for us. Edit: he's on PUP and is eligible to return in three weeks. Did he tear both ligaments - ACL and MCL? That's a long time to recover from that injury.
Signing Cutler was definitely idiotic, but their defense looks pretty bad also. I would certainly put in Moore, but I think Miami is a bad team anyway.
Definitely. The defense at least played well enough the past two weeks to keep the team in striking range. 20 points in successive weeks isn't too terrible. That and the fact that they've scored one garbage time touchdown in 8 quarters is awful. Killing my fantasy team with Jarvis Landry. Cutler usually locks on and throws to one receiver a ton. I was expecting that to be Landry this season.
