    Late to the thread, but a few comments about some games

    - Ravens game took 15 years off of my life. Had them in my survivor pool.. thought I was cooked after Barr picked off Lamar.

    - Judge and Garrett did all they could to blow that game at the end for the Giants. 2 possessions left with 9:38 left and they only took about 4:30 off the clock. Run the damn ball, let Jones get out on the edge or power it up with him. You've killed him the entire season with taking direct hits, why stop now when you need to ice the game? Why the hell are they throwing it so much? Ridiculous coaching. This guy might actually save his job, crazy to think. Can't wait until they retain the HC after firing the GM. Where have we seen that before? :p

    - Kyle Shanahan? Hot seat anyone? Dude got blown out by a BACKUP QB at home. Disgusting loss. How much longer does he have left? Can't be much right?

    - Life after Rodgers isn't going to look so pretty in GB. Must be nice to go from one HOF QB to another HOF QB for 40 years. Welcome back to the pack.

    Definitely a week like that will clear the room. I also would have thought the rams would win at home last night, with Derek Henry being out.

    I'm still not sure how wondering aloud if Zack has 'it' and was worthy of the #2 has anything to do with Sam...but OK! I'll throw ya a 'like' for effort

    I'm sorry if I confused you with someone who is a Sam Darnold supporter who didn't want him traded. I must be thinking of someone else. My bad.

    I took the Bear and the over. Not looking good right now. Bears offense is non existent.

    The Bears as an organization are a disaster. Time to cut Mack and eat the $24 million in dead money and start over with a new GM and head coach.

    Fields looks bad, Robinson has wasted most of his career chasing the money there and the offensive line is horrible. They might have the worst roster upside in the league.

    split the league in 2... a B, and an A with promotions and demotions every year

    make the lower tier / mid tier stuff more watchable

    Fields has had 1 good throw this game, otherwise hot trash. Zach, I would actually say a little bit better so far.

    It's crazy how Lawrence, Wilson, and Fields have been terrible, and Lance has barely played. Jones has been the best, but even he's not that impressive.

    I’d imagine both Fields and Lawrence have new head coaches next year. Pace/Nagy should both get canned and I imagine Urb will suddenly have a hurt heart again.

    It’ll be interesting to see if either franchise can build around the two kids.

    The 49ers will get antsy and play Lance despite not being ready while Mac Jones goes to the playoffs as a wild card this year. Incredible.

    Funny how Fields and Zach have been slow to process the NFL game. When watching Fields I see a lot of similarity to Zach so far. They look extremely slow to recognize the D and make decisions.

    The booth guys are really pumping Fields. They said the only timeline that matters is Fields, as long as he keeps improving. He's 5/11 for 63 yards with an INT in the first half. Is that improvement?

    The media has had a hard-on for Fields ever since he fell in the draft (which is ironic because before that, they didn't treat him well). Kind of reminds me of the hard-on the media used to have for Darnold.

    It seems like the Bears fans are having a lot of patience with him. They don't seem to mind having the better QB on the bench.

    They’re not exactly the most credible bunch.

    Riddick also latches on to certain players for certain reasons and spins their play into whatever makes the player look best. He doesn’t call balls and strikes. He has a horribly bias agenda.

    Griese is a moron and Levy thinks he’s calling hockey games every Monday night.

    Fields is starting because Dalton got hurt right? Could be that he's just not ready yet.

    He's listed as the #2, so he must be fine to play. Foles is hurt/out.

    That’s an absurd call on a “low block.”
