American Football (NFL)

Packers were really poor offensively, and they need to cut out some of the ridiculous penalties.
Bubble well and truly burst. -
What a wild day yesterday. Special and not so special teams chaos.
I would be remiss not to drag the NFL in a post here, so here goes: the fact that they reward underthrown balls with a spot penalty really compromises the integrity of the game’s fairness. The end of the half in last night’s game was a perfect example of this. Mahomes chucks the ball deep, DPI is called, and the Chiefs are awarded 52 yards on a play that had very little chance of generating an actual 52 yard reception. Nothing wrong with exploiting a stupid rule but it just isn’t sporting IMO for the rules committee to leave this “hack” open. This isn’t even the worst example by far. Getting the ball from we’ll outside the red zone at the 2 yard line for plays that had very little chance, often with an uncatchable ball flagged DPI in the end zone, is a frequent occurrence in the league. I like offenses to earn points, not to use cheat codes.

They’re doin’ it with smoke and mirrors and every day the walking wounded list grows. But 3&0 is 3&0.
Forty Fing Niners!

Detroit is back and man I ain’t “Lion” I thought this might be an off year for them after they lost both of their coordinators,and the way they looked that first week in Green Bay. WOW! NFL schedule makers were envisioning two 3-0 teams when they slated Chiefs/Ravens for week 4,instead they have two 1-2 teams. Neither wants to go 1-3.

@Mizmazzle As much as we all have our favorite teams,when I’m not watching my team,I want to see good football,and that was a really good game. At one point I said to my wife,I hope the Super Bowl is this good.

@Choko Got a little close in the end. Good to see their Defense doing well.
