NFL 2016 Season

It turned into a good game last night. I was about to call it a day if the Patriots had scored again just before HT.

Are there usually this many mistakes in a game? It sometimes looks like they're trying to catch a greased pig rather than a football! The amount of false starts is ridiculous as well.

Why did the NFL handle Steelers' deflated balls story so much differently than deflate-gate?

Wow, with that hilariously biased pro-Patriots 'cheaters' site you posted on the last page and now this. You are banging the Patriots drum hard :)

But to answer your question, the reason the NFL has handled it differently is because the rules were changed after deflategate 1. Teams no longer have the same access to the balls as they did previously. NFL officials are in charge of the balls, so if any are under-inflated that is the fault of the NFL not the Steelers (or any other team).

Also the Giants haven't even made a complaint.

It's a shame all the home teams for the announced Wembley games are so rubbish, though with the draft and free agency I guess there's a chance they might improve by next year. Going by this year the only game that might be competitive is the Saints vs Dolphins.

that site says all teams cheat even patriots

Giants did suspect deflated balls even tho they didn't complain makes you think if they would have complained if it were the the patriots not the steelers

Rams fire Fisher... just when you think they couldn't get any more disorganised!

Quickest contract extension to firing ever?

I certainly agree that the Rams are in a tail spin... no question about that. But, the contract extension, while just announced last week, was actually agreed to during the pre season.

Not that there's really a meaningful difference in this case... still...
 
another poor performance from the rams.

and the same crap week in week out:
usual dropped catches when under no pressure, open receivers missed by miles, secondary that keeps miscommunicating and leaving receivers wide open, defensive players that can't tackle, a qb that as no pocket awareness and who hasnt been taught how to slide.


we're still making offensive plays that make no sense, if you need 10 yds on 3rd down why call a play with a throw that goes 5 ?

then throwing to gurley nigh on at the line so he gets mobbed

donald needs to be pulled to one side and told to start behaving like a captain could have got ejected for a 2nd time this season when he threw a flag back at an offical, we're just getting stupider with these penalties.

and to end the night after goff tries to rush for a td he gets put out with concussion.

The bookies seem to have Miami v NYJ almost as a 50/50 game.

I think the Dolphins will win.

I've had a 4 team accumulator (Dolphins, Ravens, Texans, Chiefs). Pays just over 4-1.
