The NFL Thread, 2019

We started the game with 2nd string LG and 2nd string C. The Right Tackle former 1st rounder is bloody awful. No way do we resign him.

True meant most of the season yeah ifedi needs to go

4th and inches?

 

[Connor]

That’s short

 

[ilikecheese]

That’s short

Agreed but not enough evidence to overturn.

Pete Carroll..

Yer ma.

Packers bin off McCarthy and immediately get to the conference championship. Have fun Dallas.

Congrats to Green Bay. Nothing to hang my head about. That we even had a chance after the start we had fills me with pride. Russell Wilson will always give us a chance, and frankly that's been an awesome feeling for many years.

To transition on the fly with basically only Russ, Bobby, and KJ left from just a few years ago is pretty amazing. The NFL is designed to not allow it to happen.

Only team not to play in London..

Get over here Aaron lad.

They've done a good job of staying relevant but I think they're chances of winning another are next to 0 as long as Carroll resists moving into the modern NFL. Is there any type of outcry for him to go around Seattle or are the fans generally ok with where the team is?

There has always been an outcry for him to go since we lost on an amazing defensive play and an equally terribly executed offensive play to end the Super Bowl. Everyone is so quick to call it a bad call, but damn that DB made a helluva play, and the guy in charge of impeding him didn't do his job.

We hate him for his conservative approach. We hate him for lacking courage on 4th down. I can't be bothered to dig up the stats, but we practically never score on our first drive. It's run, run, pass everytime.

But we've remained relevant for a decade and did a complete roster change over the last two seasons. So I reckon he's gonna be safe until he hangs 'em up.

I don't want him out to be more specific. That they've been able to quickly sort a huge transition of players keeps me on-board.

Andy Reid is going to his 7th conference championship game. Only Tom Landry and Bill Belichick have been to more.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Yes

It's weird that a team that makes it to the divisional round should fire their coach, but I think both the Texans and Seahawks are being let down by the men in charge. More talented than the level they played at.

3 TDs in 3 minutes of playtime.
Madness

Best part of this, I was fixing the sink in my kitchen and need to run to the store for putty and stuff. Left and Texans were up 24, but came back and they were down 10. I was gone less than 30 minutes.

You must be joking re: Carroll.

More talented? Maybe at full strength, but Seattle was decimated by injuries.
