The Falcons thing is just so pathetic. It’s like they’re cursed. I remember after the Super Bowl the prevailing take was “oh well, this is probably Bradys last rodeo, and the Falcons will be good for a while..”
Speaking of Brady’s Bucs looking pretty good rn

safeties should be worth more points. i’m thinking four

*the
It's not a curse, it's dumb as a damn brick football. You got a 10 point lead with 5 minutes to go, RUN THE DAMN BALL. 3x 3 and outs and Ryan went 0-6 and if you were watching, they twice went for big homerun balls and a couple more on like 14-15 yard outs.
Bears did not even have to use ANY timeouts in this situation.
Falcons also had 3 dumb hit 15 yard penalties on defense/special teams, so while I scorch their offensive ineptitude, it really was a team effort. I guess you might say the one was a bit the guy cutting down, but Falcon DB was leading with his helmet.
Hey, i'm a Bears fans and I saw this happening and called it to my girlfriend. They definitely choked, lots of crazy 'it's happening again' on multiple players.

hatcats leading the nfc east at 1-2
unfortunate that dallas isn't 0-3
ny teams are 0-6 with a -98 point differential
think we might see some coaches fired here shortly

NFL might be better without the fans, it cuts down on the other chitchat and focuses on the field.
First couple of weeks I grazed by for a few minutes. I watched 3/4 of the Bears/Falcons game this week and Dallas/Seattle was on where I went tonight.

I was doubtful when the NBA came back, but after the first game I watched I was ecstatic. It was like a lifeline to pre-COVID life. I didn't get that feeling watching the first week of NFL. The piped-in crowd noise, pointless season-ending injuries, and boring predictability of (most of) the games have had me feeling less enthusiastic every week. There have been a few entertaining games, though.

Nick Foles is not accurate. Bears just need to go old skool Tom Landry or like college coaches used to do all the time and swap them out if they get cold.
They should have pulled Foles in the 4th quarter, as they were lifeless and the Colts defense was shuttering them in. I think having a bit of mobility at QB might have busted a play open.
Neither one is all that good, I don't think Foles has done any more than Mitch T. with the Bears.
― earlnash, Monday, 5 October 2020 19:56 (three years ago) link
I'm looking forward to seeing the Colts play some good clubs, as they look pretty stout on both lines and have some good players on D.
Cowboys defense is shredded. Cleveland pushed them around like they had Jim Brown running yesterday.

Vincent Jackson was a beast to try and tackle, he was like an prototype of those big fullback/TE like wideouts. Little 195 pound corners trying to cover that dude on a jump ball or bring down in the open field creating mismatches. Bucs' Mike Evans is also that type of wide out.
― earlnash, Friday, 5 March 2021 03:01 (three years ago) link
I can't think of Wentz being more talented than f'n Donvan McNabb let alone Randall Cunningham.
McNabb really screwed up his legacy as people totally bag on him all the time, that dude was freaking awesome early on in his career and with Jim Johnson's defense made the Eagles a killer team for nearly a decade.
― earlnash, Friday, 5 March 2021 03:03 (three years ago) link
cunningham as far as talent obvs in a tier of his own, macnabb was a very good to great quarterback but more on the high end of realized talent rather than being exceptionally talented
