GDT: Non-Panthers NFL Discussion part 3: Meet the new season, same as the old season?

[Blueline Bomber]

I now have something in common with an NFLer. Because I, too, run about six yards before I decide “f*** it, I’m done.”

(And yes, I know it was the smart play to prevent getting stripped)

I'll be your agent.

Also, once again, the NFL YT channel is stupid. This is just a Hockey forum for f***s sake

Bucs win the NFC South again.

It took until the final week, but the Jets went full Jets, and it was glorious to see

Classic Jets. At least they can start over with a new QB which means they'll screw it up again.

Just watching the DB completely unphased by all the crap, sitting back in zone and blasting Adams at the end of that. Glorious.

 

[HisIceness]

It isn't completely his fault but Justin Herbert isn't the superstar that some in the sports talk world (most notably Colin Cowherd) make him out to be. Man has made some bone-headed decisions today

We finally get a good game in this Bucs vs Commanders match.

 

[Svechhammer]

After watching what the league allowed defenses to do to Cam Newton that basically ended his career too soon, it's infuriating watching the coddling they do to Mahomes. And it's not like anything has changed, guys like Hurts are still getting the Cam treatment, Mahomes is just treated differently

That TJ Watt hit on his shoulder in 2018 was inexcusable.

Regarding the Chiefs, it is what it is but the Texans franchise is never going to win the divisional matchup. That team is the old Charlotte Hornets, good enough to make the playoffs and sometimes win a round. Not good enough for the conference championship.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

I feel like a genius picking the Chiefs over Commanders in the Super Bowl. Commanders have a very very real chance of making it, they are absolutely legit. I think Rams and Ravens win tomorrow.

NFC North went 0-3

Not a die-hard Lions fan but feel bad for them. By the end of the year they couldn’t stop a nosebleed because of all the injuries on defense, which meant Goff and the offense had to be perfect. Most of the time they were, but not last night.

Sucks because sans injuries this is probably one of the clearer Super Bowl favorites in a long time, and you never know if you can run it back quite the same way. Hopefully they get Hutchinson and crew back next year and can go all the way.

I think they'll eventually make a Super Bowl appearance with Campbell as coach but yeah, this was an opportunity wasted.

And he knows it too. Snapping his head back on that first roughing call like an NHLer going OH MY FACE when a stick comes near (you know some guys do) was quite the sell. I mean, hey, if the refs are buying it, I'd sell it too.
