JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 6, 2022 People complain there is too much politics here but the weekly football thread never shows up. So ill start it this week. Hey its Chargers week! This is basically a playoff game on sunday night at the Raiders. Lots of Chargers and Raiders fans in LA so it should be wild at most sports bars. Possibly the biggest game in the rivalry. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 7, 2022 I was listening to 830 AM in Los Angeles in the 4PM hour today. Had an NFL pundit guy on. Can't remember his name. Also had other NFL chat. Anyway from what I recall... 1. NFL pundit guy thinks Jim Harbaugh will coach the Raiders next season & Aaron Rodgers will be his QB. 2. NFL pundit guy says he is hearing a lot of chatter from Dallas local media that the NFL might move the super bowl from LA to Dallas if covid becomes too big an issue. He hears nothing about this from the LA side or NFL side, so it might be just wishful thinking. 3. Browns reporter Mary Kay Cabot thinks Baker Mayfield has played his last game as a Brown. She expects the Browns QB next year will be either Derek Carr or Matt Ryan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 7, 2022 Some news about my system. A couple of weeks ago, I had assumed no team would qualify as super elite this year. But I actually ran the numbers on the Patriots and their 50-10 win last week over the Jaguars was so dominant that they actually have a shot to reach super elite status again. They will need to absolutely destroy the Dolphins this week to do it, but its actually possible. No-one else has a shot to reach super elite status. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrible QB draft on paper coming up. Carson Strong probably will make it in the NFL as a starter. The reason he is slotted in round 2 is because he isn't Lamar Jackson and can't play the position as a super fast RB lol. He actually he's docked for being a pocket passer. Idiots. Strong literally does everything. Reads defenses very well. Goes thru progressions super fast. Sets protections. Heady player. Leader. Cannon arm. Tall. But he can't run like the wind. So its round 2 for him. NFL has a lot of dumb GMs. I mean, sure something can crop up that makes him a bust, but DAMN. Round 2? I read an analysis where they go "Well, he is a round 2 QB because the NFL is trending away from this type of player." Yeah to WHICH type of player? Trey Lance?

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 8, 2022 Chiefs had the second-best odds to win the super bowl based on their lights-out defense. But giving up 2 TDs to Drew Lock and trailing the Broncos in a game where they are trying to clinch HFA and a bye? They should be crushing an offense that starts Drew Lock. Those super bowl odds seem way too high to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The front office is full of Maras and they are calling the shots and can’t be fired.

Mara has to get the Fock out of the way and take his brother, nephew and the rest of his clan with him and go to Westchester country club and let football people do the footballing. Just be trust find kids and sit in the box on Sundays. A nd NYC is a mess and getting messier. The new mayor just gave non citizens the right to vote. And Manhattan elected a radical leftist DA funded by Soros, just like the rest of these dopey far left cities. We ain’t special. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,995 Posted January 9, 2022 37 minutes ago, Big Guy said: Cool......our Boys are gonna be ready this time around Hope so...... but this time of year, a team (usually) is what it is. And what this team is....they're a wonderfully talented defensive team, who can get after the QB, create TOs.... Unfortunately they're also a team who can't run the ball, least not with the slow/unexplosive overpaid RB they insist on feeding the ball (tired of 2nd and 9 after they run Zeke on 1st down!!!). They're a team with a below average OL, who's LG and C are borderline awful. They're a team who, for whatever reason, can't seem to get their star $$20m WR more than 3 to 4 catches a game. They're a team who, even tho CD Lamb was all over the field catching balls in college, can't seem to utilize properly in the pros. They're a team who's $40m QB isn't making the throws he was the 1st six weeks of the season before his calf injury. Our defenive strength of getting up the field and rushing the qb is also our weakness - least against Murray. Our DEs, or somebody, is going to have to stay in their lanes, keep Murray in the pocket - or he'll kill us again.... We're also going to have to stop with the 72 holding penaties a game.... and for the love of Gawd, we HAVE to take this game out of Zuershiits hands, or leg shall I say. That idiot is not worth a damn, he's going to cost us, you watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
