2017 Football Thread III: End of an Eli

[Irishguy42]

It was 28-3....

I'm not even a huge football fan, and I was really upset by that.

It was 28-3....

That is what the score could be at halftime.

 

[RangerBlues]

Sitting at the bar last night thinking that Jags +280 seemed way too egregious of odds. Didn't do anything about it.

Sad!

At least im not the only one.

It falls under too good to be true rule.
but I should have trown somthing at it anyway.

Brady takes them to school.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Athletic QB with poor results, poor completion percentage. Looks like a QB but doesn't play like one. Sounds like Locker and Allen to me. NFL is not a developmental league. Allen will get eaten alive just watch. It's literally the hardest position to play in sports. The guy was middling in the Mountain West. This isn't someone who dominated a lesser league. This is a guy who makes a few plays a game. But he's tall and he throws hard so some idiot thinks they'll make him a QB.

I mean, it's far more than that. Did you actually watch Allen last year and this year? Last year, he had an offensive line and WRs. This year, it's him. We will have to agree to disagree on this one, because I see nothing of Locker in him. His completion stats look like crap because his WRs dropped everything thrown their way (which is why I constantly harp on here about not giving a f*** about completions when looking at a QB). He's much closer to someone like Wentz (which makes sense when you understand Allen's background). Except Wentz played for a powerhouse in college.

Allen needs work, but he's not Locker or some other crap.

You haven't heard anything on Lamar changing positions? It's been suggested for over a year

I haven't heard it because I don't listen to morons who throw up hot takes like that (nyr brought up who he heard say it and it made sense to me). You shouldn't pay attention to nonsense like that, either.

Fournette is ridiculous.

Myles Jack is absurd and the refs just stole a TD

Can't be. LB isn't an important position.

Jags gonna get PI on every ball Brady throws in the air

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Would be nice if they called those flags on NE this game.

It really has been Jacksonville vs. NE and the refs this game. This has been such an outright disgrace.

 

[I Eat Crow]

That was PI on Ramsey.

At least 3 similar instances went uncalled going the other way, though.

Right, that's exactly the point. NE should have been called for this multiple times.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Blatant holding on that return and no flag, either.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

This game is over. NE has it in the bag, now.

 

[I Eat Crow]

That's not a catch...

 

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

Bortles legs have been bottled up so far. Maybe on the final possession?

 

[YetAnotherNorwegian]

I'm just so sick and tired of this f***ing team, man.

 

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

Never a holding call on the Oline either. Great catch however

 

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

Seen this movie too many times...fear a turnover unfortunately. Hope I'm wrong!

 

[I Eat Crow]

Boo

 

[Holocene]

It's going to be Pats vs Eagles just to torture both NY fanbases.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Lol, what a joke.

 

[LeetchisGod]

How does jacksonville let that happen? Pathetic.

Someone put the camera on Romo, pretty sure he's got a cheerleader's outfit on with Patriots pom-poms..
