Preseason starts in 2 days with the HOF game between the Bears and Ravens, so it seemed like a good time to make a new, stickied NFL thread. Hopefully the Bears can finally have a good season.

re: NFL Divisional Round: IND/KC, DAL/LAR, LAC/NE, PHI/NO

nflol that was a catch this is seriously why people have begun to stop watching. officiating dictates the outcome WAAY too often.

pass interference is a much worse offender though. also phantom holding calls etc.
peopl have begun to stop watching because of the huge list of problems. It's not even one thing, it's just so many things. How the league conducts itself, the owners all being literal pieces of shit(which Im sure isnt different in other leagues, but they don't make it as well known as scumbags like Jerry Jones and Irsay), the play itself being too slow, too many commercials, too many penalties, too many rules leading to people not knowing what the fuck is happening and feeling screwed far too often, and to top it off there's so much roster turnover these days you can't even really keep up with teams anymore. Players retiring early, moving around constantly, etc, it makes it really hard to actually know who is where and who is who.

Eagles linebackers are atrocious in coverage. Atlanta should have targeted them more in the passing game with Coleman and Freeman. That Eagles defense is very exploitable by any team with the right tools and football IQ.

The commercials are annoying but they only bothered me when they'd do the ridiculously long breaks...then go to another break. It's the least of the game's problems.
Problem is that bothersome phenomenon occurs far too often with NFL games. :lol

At least NBA games only slow down to a crawl in the last couple of minutes of regulation if it's terribly close, so some drama is retained through it all. :lol

Don't disagree with any of the entirely valid criticisms of the way the rules are always changed, modified, and sloppily enforced, though. :lol

It's early but no way anyone can disagree that Nathan Peterman is the worst starting QB in football. :lol
He was garbage last year when he started so no surprise here. Two starts, two horrible games, two times he's been benched really early. They must have zero faith in Josh Allen to not name him the starter from day one.

Really liking what I'm seeing from the Patriots defense. Improved at all levels, with the biggest upgrades coming up front. Better run defense, much better pass rush, and Ja'Whaun Bentley is looking spectacular. High football IQ and a LB who can cover in space. Coverage LB is what NE has been lacking for a while now.

And of course, Tom Brady making a complete fool of Max Kellerman and his "cliff" nonsense.

My early reactions...

-Just as I was saying in the off season, my Saints are sorely going to miss Mark Ingram in the first 4 games...
-Kirk Cousins is driven, and looks really good here early...
-How bout them Ravens/Flacco?!
I'm pleasantly surprised by the energy thus far but it's only Game 1.

Fuck around & catch a CA$H :flacco1

What awful football today... I keep thinking the quality of the game has cratered but each year it gets worse. It’s almost college football levels of amateurish play. What happened to fundamentals? I understand the nuetering of defense to cater to the casual, but not teaching sound fundamental play is all but a relic. What the fuck....
