they did a big city greens washington vs rangers game last season.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

I’m calling Achilles revealed tomorrow.

Yeah, that's what a lot of the speculation is. My nephew texted me "Achilles" the moment he came off the field.

I wonder if he got immunized against an Achilles?

I don’t know … would you rather have a blown Achilles or a Damar Hamlin heart attack? Tough call honestly.

I *think* I feel bad for the Jets. Because Zach Wilson is very very bad.

 

[Sens1Canes2]

Amazing how quickly that game turned, basically because of a false start.

Giants were just marching down the field, trying to go in for a score and a false start by the LT (who had no false starts all last year), set them back 5 and changed the play. Next play a botched snap losing another 10+ yards making it now a long field goal attempt. Blocked, TD and the Giants were never the same.

100%. Cowboys didn’t adapt very well on that first drive … and then that sequence of events absolutely killed anything the Giants were doing, then a dropped ball/INT for a touchdown and the snowball kept going downhill.

Not a good night for Josh Allen

 

[Svechhammer]

Ya know.... with so many teams resting their starters and major contributors all preseason, maybe we shouldn't be surprised that so many teams look to be spinning tires in Week 1

 

[HisIceness]

That was a sick catch, tie game

Exactly my thoughts as I watched a lot of games yesterday - sooooo much bad football.

But then … there was Miami-SD, which was amazing.

 

[HisIceness]

Holy balls that was a hockey post and in the net kind of kick

Edit: Jets win in OT on a punt return

 

[Svechhammer]

Oof, looks like it's the Achilles for Rogers

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

He will be 40 in December. Does he come back from this if it is indeed the Achilles? Poor Jets fans.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Will he?

I mean, probably. But I also thought he’d be the QB for the Jets this year. So who knows.

ended up losing my fantasy football matchup this week by .9 points with like a 20 point lead heading into tonight with me having josh allen and the other guy having aaron rodgers, jets kicker, jets d/st. game was a roller coaster between rodgers getting hurt immediately, allen throwing 3 picks and losing a fumble, the short drive at the end for the tying FG getting just enough pass/rush yards to put me back in the lead, then the walk-off punt return to barely allow my opponent to squeak ahead.

i'm convinced the nfl is scripted to spite my fantasy team specifically, and i'm also convinced everyone else cares what happens to my fantasy team

Did you see the viral post about the guy who needed 0.5 fantasy points from Rodgers, only guy playing for either team? Ooof.

He full Wisniewski'd the Jets

 

[Stickpucker]

And Jets fans weep 4 plays into the Rodgers era.
1 running play
1 pressured and escapes to throw it away
1 pressured and incomplete by defensive holding call
1 sack where he's injured.

He lasted longer than James Wiznewski
