"Every Chargers game since 2010 has been a 35-34 loss" nfl week FIVE 2016/7

lol

niners beat themselves hard tonight. chip looks sad

i'm happy every time chip loses

every idiot in philadelphia knew that getting rid of your best players was not the way to build a better team but somehow chip kelly did not get the memo

Kaep better start from here on out

FTW: Washington Redskins at Baltimore Ravens.

Nate’s Mom: Redskins.

FTW: Any reason?

Nate’s Mom: Redskins are a very good team.

FTW: You say that every week. Have you ever seen them play?

Nate’s Mom: No.

lol that's great. she might not do too bad this week either

are they gonna let Kaep start again or what?

presumably the official line is still that they are waiting for him to be "100%". gabbert was not the worse of the qbs last night - he looks like a qb, whereas stanton looks like someone asked the punter to take some snaps. there is definitely material there that you assume kelly should be able to work with. he is a good runner and he has a strong and basically accurate arm so if kelly can manufacture an offense similar to his first year in philly with defenses keying on qb/rb runs and receivers running free then he could look like a probowler. as things stand, vs normal pass coverage, he is totally lacking the finesse needed. he does his receivers no favours at all - throws the ball so gdamn hard on every route and has no sense of where to locate the ball to make the throw safe or the catch easy. even if he is often on target he is always going to throw interceptions and make easy routes hard.

@darrenrovell
Starting this weekend, the NFL will fine teams for posting unapproved video/GIFS. First offense is $25K, 2nd in $50K (H/T @samcmlaird)

yes, let's also hope that none of the cheerleaders or advertisers do anything that is 'sexually suggestive'

wtf

presumably they don't want any teams posting/demonstrating approval for a) big hits that cause concussions, b) celebrations that will draw fines

chip kelly says he isn't sure who is starting week 6

there's more pats fans than cleveland fans at this game

I know!

Looks like Brady is still good at football.

And Gronk apparently remembers how to play as well.

RIP Bennett

BRADY! and GRONKY

ugh what happened to marty, i didn't see it

been thinking about going to an away game this season, like pats/jets at the meadowlands maybe.. going to be in nyc anyway. how difficult is taking public transit to that stadium? rather see them at home but i really don't want to deal with getting to foxboro

cleveland o-line is good. kessler is going to have time all game unless pats can manufacture something. i guess that's why long was in coverage on that key 3rd down...can maybe outsmart yourselves with this shit dudes

guess they figured something out

Pats' D definitely a work in progress

this is the first week they've had hightower back isn't it? nink definitely

over on my local tv josh norman left the game with some injury.. nooooo

hightower played the last 2 but didn't seem to be 100% yet. this is nink's first game.

might be time to sit some starters here

Brady hitting those long passes to Hogan today

BRADY

man, vikes putting texans to the sword. there are 2 teams moving quickly in opposite directions

not used to seeing pats complete those deep passes

of course they are playing cleveland

Oops

ok norman is fine

thought brady would just sneak it in ugh

the cleveland lineman blew that shit up single handedly

i was looking at starting QB stats today, so far the only one with an INT is tannehill.

Pretty much the Bears and Colts game is a playoff elimination game in week 5.

my neighbor is watching same hatcats v ravens with a slightly faster cable connection so i hear yelling about touchdowns several seconds before they happen

HAIL

Bears defense does look improved this year.

I think the biggest difference between the good and the mediocre QBs is that the good ones can throw that back corner fade pass in the red zone with consistency.

That jump pass in the corner of the endzone is such a ubiquitous weapon of current NFL and dudes like Brian Hoyer just don't have the touch to throw it with any accuracy at all.

Pat McAfee just hit a 50+ yard punt just right and got a nearly 20 yard roll for a 74 yard punt, which was a career high. He has had a very good career.

can't expect a team to have the best punter in football and also be able to afford an offense and defense.

miami looking like they might be the worst team in the league

That's why the Raiders finally let Lechler go, can't have top shelf kicking team and afford a good QB.

anywhere i can stream this den/atl game?

there's a reddit thread for nfl streams. can't say i would recommend it but it's there

That'll work. Thanks

What's up with Denver? Are they a legit 4-0 team?

"If we play winning football, we're gonna win."

Cowboys are flat out cutting up the Bengals. They look scary good, I think Romo might have lost his starting job if Dak keeps this up.

dallas and minnesota in contention for best nfc teams and maybe both better for having their qb go down somehow

ppl have been getting excited about denver and their defense is worth the hype but i think they are going to struggle to score as the season goes on, whoever is at qb. i don't think siemian was going to keep looking quite so good once the league has a couple games of tape on him, and it sounds like that shoulder injury might keep him out a few games. on the evidence of this half lynch is not quite ready for primetime and they are playcalling like they know it.

bummed that the bears lost to indy. figured hoyer probably let them down but he finished with a great stat line, better than luck! and howard was great again. looks like didn't get the breaks in a close game

so much Romo sadface

omg bills

Los Angeles Bills fans I love you

Nickel Robert-Coleman!!!

My dumb phone autocorrected his name

Feel like this thread title may prove prophetic

Omg Chargers

super chargers!

I feel bad for Phil Rivers

I mean, I was rooting for the Raiders, but poor Phil Rivers

:D Raiders

Rivers is a dick I could not be happier rn

Philip Rivers = future Arizona Cardinals QB.

panthers defense kinda sad this season

jfc it is amazing how bad this kicker the bucs drafted in the 2nd round is

lol it's so perfect - not only did u draft a kicker in the 2nd round but he's terrible

New Orleans Saints receiver Brandin Cooks is frustrated by the NFL's sudden crackdown on the bow-and-arrow touchdown celebration that he began as a sign of his faith in God.

Cooks himself has never been fined or penalized for the gesture, which has become so associated with him that the NFL Players Association and a partner company created an emoji of Cooks shooting an arrow. Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman was hit with both a penalty and a fine two weeks ago, with the NFL's head of officiating Dean Blandino explaining that it "mimics a violent act."

we can't have any hint of violent acts at an nfl game
