Generally speaking I think the NFL does a better job of showing a diversity of teams in prime time than other leagues like the MLB and NBA, but I am sick of watching the Jets.
I imagine J-E-T-S fans feel the same way now.


Kinda surprised the Chiefs and Packers don't have as many as the 9ers, Cowboys and Jets. But yeah, Jets should not have that many. If anything they should be flexed out.
Remember those are both "small market" teams. The Packers do have somewhat of a large fan base outside of WI, and I suspect the Chiefs bandwagon is pretty heavy nowadays too. But they still can't compete with the top media market teams.

The Jets only have one more PT game that can be flexed out - they play the Colts on SNF on the 17th. My guess is that game gets flexed for KC-Buffalo if the rules allow it.

Why would anyone watch anyone but the Packers? That would be like choosing saltines over ice cream.

Calling Kaepernick a bad quarterback is ridiculous.
He had 1.5 seasons of good play. After his first full, starting season, defenses caught up with him and then you can either blame injuries, coaching, supporting cast but he went south pretty quickly. But hey did he ever scorch the ever living hell out of Greenbay twice, and I'm glad he did that.

It's what folks with a right-wing agenda or POV say to fit their narrative of diversion from reality.

Did you not see my last message in an earlier post of yours? The topic is NFL. Let's keep it that way.

Did pretty well by most metrics. People saying he was bad are doing so out of ignorance or hate or both.

He wasn’t a BAD quarterback, but neither was he consistently a GOOD quarterback. Teams will put up quite a bit of bullshit from an OUTSTANDING player, Kaep wasn’t that.

TIL kneeling before the game even started is more than quite a bit of bullshit. Also, if kneeling before the game counts as politicking on the clock then so does what Bosa did. Interacting with media is part of their job.

Looks like there will be a fine coming eventually:

They are waiting till after the election because they love to play the game.

If Trump wins, all their fake rules and ethics go out the window. They will kiss the ring and most will like it.

But he won't win

Let's keep the political comments out of OT, even when prompted by events.

Tyler Bass kicked Buffalo's first ever 60+ yard field goal to win the game against the Dolphins, 30-27.

It feels good to be on the other side of miracle kicks for once.

CBS changed us from the Baltimore blow-out over the Donkeys (at about the 2 minute warning) to the Buffalo game with about 45 seconds left in the game. That was a great kick…he had enough on the ball to have made that one from 70+ yards.

It was more like...half of a season tbh. his first full starting season, after that SB, he wasn't very good. He came on in the middle of that great SF team and no team really had sufficient time to deal with him. There really wasn't tape.

I certainly don't think he was the worst QB in the league and definitely deserved a shot on several shit teams, even as a low-tier starter, but I always felt he was massively, massively overrated, even when he first came in and was putting up bizarre numbers. He just...didn't have the brains for it. Incredibly athletic and gifted with certain skills, but pro QBing requires more brains for the game than Kaep every showed.

I had much more respect for his protest movement and honestly value him much more for that. He totally got rail-roaded by a bunch of racist crybaby billiionaire owners, listening to their snowflake racist fans.

Yes that was one particularly great game and what...his 4th or 5th start or something?

the giants put up a fight but they just lack the talent. also the refs kinda fucked them out of a TD on a bogus pick play call. at least they kept it close. Washington has a good team - so please beat the iggles Jayden!

From what I remember he had to get into a rhythm early otherwise he never did. If he had a first good drive he tended to play well for the rest of the game. If he floundered in the first drive, he tended to flounder for the whole game.

3 wins in a row at Lambeau. Feels good - esp given all the comments about how the Lions are a dome team and Geoff will struggle in the elements. Well one team did struggle but it wasn't the Lions

Trey Lawrence sucks. They climb back into the game against the iggles, they have almost 2 minutes left on the clock, and then he tries to force a long td pass for an interception. iggles win.

there goes another #1 pick.
