Surely Brandon Marshall can’t be that much better than Austin Carr & Keith Kirkwood at this stage?

I’m not watching the NFL again until someone hires Peterman.
CJ Anderson has been cut too, and Santos replaces Catanzaro.
What a shit call by the refs, that was an interception.
No. No thank you.
He didn’t start particularly fast, but the man has proved he’s a beast lately. That Colts line has been a revelation - big, nasty & actually able to protect Andrew Luck for the first time in probably five years.
Hue is back with the Bengals as ‘special assistant to the Head Coach’ :D
No idea why people say it’s an old boys club.
Bugger knows how Church didn't shit himself inside out with that screaming lunatic about to burst him.
Nathan Peterman would have had a better career passer rating had he spiked the ball on every play instead :D
Deadline passed, Bell is a no-show. RIP to all those who took him first round and didn't manage to grab Conner.
:(
He's such a dick.
He did tell everyone last year he wouldn't play under the tag again.
Even the fucking Bills have decided that Terrelle Pryor is shit.
Yeah, I hate it too. Sorta trying to half pay attention to everything, end up taking in absolutely nothing. Though watching the full games on Sunday I do other stuff to pass time between plays and end up not realising the game's started again for about 10 minutes, which is equally shit. I think my preferred NFL consumption is watching a late Sunday game, MNF and thursdays game in 40 mins on gamepass the morning after. Might just give up on Sunday evenings as dedicated NFL time, and just watch all the games which sound interesting on Monday evening instead.
I'm not a massive fan of the 3 sky blokes either.
I used to like Mike Carlson on channel 5 from what very little I remember.
Carlson is the best NFL presenter that has even been employed on UK TV.
It's a shame that Channel 5 and 4 can't be arsed bidding for any NFL packages/highlights though.
I tried to listen to him and Nat Coombs doing a preview podcast but I didn't love it. I do genuinely really like Osi, Jason and Chappers as a trio but it's sometimes a tad too bantery for my liking. I'd watch all the games in full if the sky studio team was Chappers, Mike, Osi and Jason I think.
Bell seems to be getting absolutely ripped in the media, but everyone seems to be glossing over that had he been injured this year he was fucked regardless of whether he was on the tag or the deal the steelers offered.
His holdout is all about guarantees and security. If he gets his contract with 30-35 mil guaranteed and then gets injured, or not, he'll be justified.
The franchise tag for multiple seasons just seems like the old NFL boys club waiving power because they can. Imagine being a rookie drafted into team and then becoming a proper top of the position stud. You could play 6 seasons before getting a chance to reach market value, all the while being an injury away from losing that contract.
Sucks for the NFL that a player that good isn't playing, but it's not new information that players dislike the tagging system.
The tagging system has always made zero sense to me. The entire contract situation and salary cap needs simplifying to be honest, it’s utter nonsense.
You only have to look at someone like Earl Thomas. He wanted a deal with more guaranteed money or trading. He played on whilst negotiating and look what's happened.
It's not a great situation but I don't blame Bell for what he's doing.
Terron Armstead is out 3-4 weeks. He’s been one of the best tackles in the league this year (as has Ramczyk on the other side), so it’s a big problem, especially as we play the Eagles next :uhoh:
We're in shit form, with only Mills left as a reliable corner and you're scoring over 40 points a game. It's only going one way.
Loomar is sick. Flacco is out. RG3 looms...
I think even if Loomar was 100% then we'd be starting with RG3.
Loomar is listed as the number 2 so we can run those bullshit trick plays which lose all momentum we had, I can't see him starting a game.
Ohio State :D
No, wait, Maryland :D
EDIT: Nope, it's definitely Ohio State :D How do you let Maryland break two 75+ yard runs in the first quarter? Maryland are a mess, and they're dick slapping Ohio State right now.
And now they throw in Tate Martell on a third & short for no reason, don't get it, then get stopped on fourth down as well. They're properly fucking this up so far.
Immediately give up another huge play on defence as well. The defence is disgraceful so far - Michigan should humiliate them next week.
Kendall Sheffield just got put on his arse trying to press his man, but luckily the Maryland's backup QB can't hit two throws in a row so they're only 17-3 up inside the first quarter.
Maryland are just running all over Ohio State here, and I genuinely don't think anyone in the Ohio State secondary has any fucking clue what they're meant to be doing.
This Maryland CB wearing 2 (Davis, I think they said), is pretty not good, and also pretty not smart, and it's probably going to put Ohio State right back into this game at half-time. And the second I post that JK Dobbins fumbles at the goal-line :D This is two teams who are a mess off the field, playing like a mess on the field.
Ohio state are nowhere near playoff worthy.
Not watched/watching any of the games today and the schedule looks pretty poor. Would be quite funny if ucf manage to fuck up in front of game day vs Cincinnati.
It’s pretty terrible. I’ve not seen much of the second half as my housemate is home & im making dinner, but a pick 6 & a fumble on a QB draw isn’t a great improvement on the first half.
I tell you what, this game was much better than anyone would have expected before the game. 40 seconds might still be enough for Maryland to win it as well.
ESPN appear to have got confused and published an Onion article.

Wot?
:D
The Browns are so good.
I have a feeling that Burfict is going to attempt to try and destroy Loomar today.
I think we're planning on running it every single play.
I have no idea why you wouldn't immediately begin the game with a spy on Loomar every single play. That QB draw where the entire middle of the field was completely open was shameful.
Is Loomar Lamar Jackson?
He has PASSED the ball.
Titans are getting rinsed, a week after roasting the patriots.
NFL is super open and competitive this year.
Jags fuucking up the steelers too.
A James Connor injury today is inevitable.
Man, the Colts are rolling at the minute. This is probably the best they've looked since Luck arrived :uhoh:
Julio :cool:
Love me some Justin Reid too.
Reid :cool:
I almost picked him up in my IDP league but went for Glover Quin instead. Doesn't matter though as I've won the match already but still.
101 yard pick six.
Love that shit. Houston :cool:
Getting fucked in fantasy though.
Big Ben :harold:
Fitzmagic dead? :(
That Gabbert interception :D
Alex Smith's leg :sick:
Oh Dear god that Alex smith injury is rough viewing.
Cam down too now, although surely nothing as serious as Alex Smith.
Sam Bradford will be getting some calls tomorrow, you'd have to imagine.
If CMC and Loomar score TD's then I'm on for about £75.
Mon lads.
