America's favorite Dystopian pastime - NFL 2021-22

Actually don’t think that pick was his fault, Lockett tripped over his own feet. Probably should’ve made a different throw with 3 defenders in the area but backups tend not to improvise like that

yah not his fault... but still

This Packers-Bengals game is a treat. I didn’t even mean to watch it. Now I’m worried Fox is going to have to yank it for the local afternoon game.

Pretty shocked they went for the FG on 4th and inches. I guess Crosby told LaFleur “seriously I got a feeling about this one”

You know what they say, give him 4 chances at a game winning field goal and he’ll make you pay

Zimmer and Cousins celebrate the win over the Lions by almost getting in a fight on the sidelines

Kirk Cousins and Mike Zimmer sure have a weird way of celebrating 😳😬

lol what the hell

someone caption that vid plz

Why the fuck is it impossible to upload images with my post? I want everyone to see a picture of the single worst pass interference call of all-time.

This was called defensive pass-interference on the #Browns. Yikes. pic.twitter.com/zqiJoKlUup

That was a fourth fucking down play by the way. God I am so pissed right now.

Tyreek Hill: very fast human being

You think Urban Meyer sent a gift basket to Jon Gruden for somehow coming up with a note from 10 years ago that makes him look less like an a-hole in a comparative sense?

Coaching profession is a magnet for some horrible human beings. I guess it keeps them out of becoming politicians with death squads or something...

you forget Coach Senator Tommy Tuberville

lmao just saw that Evan McPherson apparently thought his first game winning kick was good and started celebrating before turning around and going wha happen

the chiefs defense is a krakatoa-level disaster

Yeah they just look like they aren't as good a team as Buffalo

lmao what the hell was that little animation

wow that was a weak roughing the passer call

Andy Reid is aging into looking just like Wilford Brimley at this point.

NYT has more emails - "Gruden, now the coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, casually and frequently unleashed misogynistic and homophobic language over several years to denigrate people around the game and to mock some of the league’s momentous changes." https://t.co/n4oK26UxEW

not lookin' good

would be cool to not have to look upon that dumb ass anymore

Important to remember that he was chosen to do commentary on Monday Night Football which is one of the league’s most visible and sought after jobs. I can’t imagine a single person in that process didn’t know he was like this. At least Urban Meyer’s having a good day!!

this is even better in light of tirico and dungy tripping all over themselves to defend his character on last night's broadcast.

text book boys club, i liked how the nytimes piece mentioned that gruden and allen were both college coaches sons

yup, the large adult sons club. and i will never cease to be amazed at what people will write in an email that is going to exist forever.

and we're done here! that was quick

Source: Jon Gruden just informed his staff that he plans to resign as #Raiders coach.

Would be nice to see some public statements from players and coaches condemning this kind of conduct, but I doubt we will.

it sucks that carl nassib is going to have to deal with questions about his dickhead former head coach

chucky go bye bye

they threw him in his own grinder

one of the most singularly unlikable figures in american sports. what a nice way to end the day.

chucky, more like cheugy

Espn will hire him to host "Gruden's Email Camp" where he invites the subjects of his hateful words and breaks down the "mistakes" they made in their "reads".

all he ever wanted to do was to make $10 million a year coaching a mediocre football team . . . and they took it from him

I have always hated him. Fake tough guy coaches are one of my pet peeves.

Would love to see video of Nassib stuffing Gruden in a locker.

hate to admit it but the fake Jon Gruden account on Twitter was so good it kind of made me like him

that said the Raiders giving him $100m was so obviously stupid and I'm glad it's blowing up on them

i will never cease to be amazed at what people will write in an email that is going to exist forever.

otm especially in company email that can looked at by someone else any time they feel like, this came out in an unrelated investigation into the wash foot team lol, gruden was using a personal email but he was sending to corporate addrs

they couldve just been texting each other like normal people

can't believe the refs didn't let that incredibly cool lateral touchdown stand. i mean it definitely looked like he got it off in real time

ok yeah if Gruden's emailing stuff like that chances are he talked that way to his team and fellow front office people all the time, guessing we may be hearing a lotta stories about him soon

lol yeah there should be some good articles on the way

I guarantee there are others in the NFL that are sweating as they know some of the dumb bull shit they have put out there in texts and emails over the years.

yeah but Rex Ryan is currently unemployed so he's got nothing to worry about

Jon Gruden statement: “I have resigned as Head Coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. I love the Raiders and do not want to be a distraction. Thank you to all the players, coaches, staff, and fans of Raider Nation. I’m sorry, I never meant to hurt anyone.”

"I never meant to hurt anyone', Gruden went on to elaborate, "I only wanted to project a manly image by disparaging and dismissing whole groups of people en masse. It never occurred to me that my hurtful, ignorant, bigoted remarks could be taken personally by individuals within that group. Listen, some of my acquaintances and colleagues are faggots and I never said this stuff to their faces. I sort of almost liked some of them, even if they were pansies and dykes."

despite nearly turning it over 3 times on that drive Lamar Jackson still looks like the most unstoppable force in football

geez Blankenship really saved Young from being run out of town there

seriously you're at home, you know your offense will be completely unstoppable in overtime, and the other team has like 15 seconds on the clock...good time to dramatically shove a dude in plain sight after the play is over

that said Wentz is an anti-vaxx moron so I'm pretty glad to see them punt an incredibly winnable game like this. Lamar might've just put up the best 2nd half + OT numbers ever
