NFL GDT: Week 7: Prodigal Sons Returning

[LightningStorm]

Welp, that was a disaster of a 2nd quarter for the Vikings. Down 21-10 now.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

That was a funny sequence to end the half

 

[Troy McClure]

Welcome back Nick Chubb!

haha Hopkins misses the XP.

Hopkins went from reliable to unable to hit anything.

 

[HeHateMeFrisbee]

Lions looking great after a rough start.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Good kick for Gay to put this game 10-3 at the half.

...wild to think the winner of this Colts/Dolphins game i believe would be the 7 seed as of now. #AbolishThe7seed.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Lol at that ending of the first half in Buffalo

 

[Romang67]

Tennessee is such a loser team.

Stop the Bills on third down with 1:30 left and a timeout. Instead of calling a timeout, they let the Bills run the clock all the way down to 40 or so seconds.

Can't believe the Bills are losing to them.

Brian Callahan has not impressed me as a head coach this year.

 

[End of Line]

I stretch mine out all the time by hanging my ankles off of my steps, especially before going running. Always concerned one day it will go off, but I think I do a good job of it because I don’t use any unnatural foot movements that makes it prone. Saw that talk a lot after Dre Greenlaw blew his running off the sideline.

I strained mine during offseason workouts for lacrosse my senior year of HS. Wasn’t right for a year or so after that initial injury. And yeah, letting your heels hang off a step is the best way to stretch it and your calves.

NFL Kickers, MLB Pitchers, and NHL goalies are the holy trinity of falling off a f***ing cliff and being completely unplayable out of nowhere.

Thanks, I needed this added anxiety in my life.

I remember seeing that same type of replay when Durrant did his achilles in the NBA finals 5 years ago or whatever it was.

It's hard to judge him imo when his starting QB has the football and actual IQ of the condiment he apparently loves so much.

If they have even a middling QB they're probably 4-1 right now.

It seems they happen most often when someone tries to spring off their foot suddenly while it’s stepping down. Like, you never see anyone running down the field and their achilles just snaps. They’re starting their forward movement before you’re ready to use your foot’s leverage, and it forces two separate movements from the calf

Seahawks beating Atlanta in Atlanta after back to back embarrassing losses at home.
Makes perfect sense

I just don't think he's been optimizing Levis at all. They saw the boneheaded mistakes and tried to make him into a safe player, which just makes him all around bad, AND STILL RESULTS IN A TURNOVER MACHINE. Take the risks with the rewards of Levis, I think you have a turnover machine who also pushes the ball down the field and has good enough athleticism to make a difference in the run game.

But yeah, you're right. It could honestly just be that Levis is pure garbage and I just overrate what optimized Levis could be based on traits.

Stretch out your calves! Helps with shin splints too. I never get them.

That’s what happened to mine doing resistance training. Just stepped down off a start and bang I was on the ground.

Ben Johnson has to be gone to be a head coach after this year, right?

Ben Johnson to Cincinnati if Zac Taylor stinks up the joint

 

[Terry Yake]

career should be over for watson. good riddance

Anything that gets him out of the NFC North is good with me.

 

[Romang67]

Watch him come back to stink up the joint for the Browns next season again.

 

[The Note]

You’d think so but I assumed he’d be gone after last year too. I imagine Jerruh will be calling.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Titans lol

 

[hatterson]

How does the cap get impacted for a player on IR? Would the Browns be able to get out from under some of that boat anchor because of Watson missing large amounts of time?
