/NFL/ General : Ugly wins edition

fuck the Eagles.

Correction:
Pats vs Broncos last year
>Game 1: Bribe my ref, please
>Game 2: The case of the missing offensive line

This year the pats will be the broncos in mile high, and it shall be glorious, cap this shit.

regular season is just a race for the first seed

strawpoll.me/11304056

The panthers, falcons, patriots and raiders all have a better offense than the steelers

who /3-0/ here?

Who here /divisionleader/

My little Patshitters can't be this delusional

Packers looked good today. With Shields and Burnett that is a legitimately great defense

NFC North is going to be fun this year

TYBC

TYBR

...

both teams are so evenly matched that it takes homefield advantage to determine the winner. Sucks they both can't be in the owl. Much better than the shit the NFC brings.

This. Last year was the worst case scenario when it comes to injuries and O-line play and one of the games went to OT and the other was decided on a 2 point attempt after a kicker missed an extra point.

If anything, those losses make me even more confident this year.

>all of those empty seats
Why did Bud think moving the Oilers to bumfuck Tennessee was a good idea?

good luck with the shit tier QB

Living in western NY felt good today lads

what was he trying to do here?

Why doesn't Tennessee give a fuck about the NFL? They sell out every Volunteer game, no matter how shitty that team usually has been for the last 25 years, the Titans have been to the Super Bowl. What the fuck?

He glitched out

he dindu nuffin

All they need to do is get to the playoffs and Flacco will go off

Rex gonna rex it up next sunday

>Brian Hoyer
Please stop the meme

Is it too early to say the Eagles are legit?

The Steelers are a legitimately good team, but their other wins came against the two worst teams in the NFL.

There wasn't an empty seat in the house. I took this picture right before half time. Everyone was up to piss and grab a beer.

how does this make you feel?

trying to goad the broncos and panthers into not completely destroying them during the next two weeks

How do I continue to watch the Chargers without wanting to die?

I feel like they're good but they just beat themselves over and over again

really makes you think

Ugly win but
Good win!

...

>working on preliminary power rankings
>vikings #3
>eagles +10
>2 1-2 teams in top 10
>3 teams win but don't move up

early season power rankings are hard af

Watch the Chargers, but root for the other team. More of than not you'll be on the winning side.

I thought wanting to kill yourself was a prerequisite to being a chargers fan

the chargers are the new raiders

See

Sunday Night Football doesn't appeal to me anymore, idk why

...

The Patriots, Broncos, and Vikings are the only legitimately great teams. Big power gap after them.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SUNDAY NIGHT

>eagles +10
I'm okay with this

t. Stoolerfag

Tirico replacing Michaels will be the real beginning of the end.

Even if the offense comes back down to earth, the defense is already proven as legit

That D wins with straight up talent, killing offenses with regular 4 man fronts, no memeing necessary.

you're taking it too seriously

early season power rankings have no weight

you're dumb

the Falcons v Saints should've been the SNF game

And useless as fuck too

SOON

Include the Bengals in that mix

Nevada legislature will shoot it down.

Is Dak Prescott elite?

Fuck off HUE

3-0
3-0
3-0

Also, Steelers lost so bad that CBS CHANGED GAMES on all markets outside of PA.

>even if Wheaton would've caught that early TD pass the Steelers would have only scored 10
Hold me senpai

Why has Bortles regressed so badly while both Carr and Garappolo are looking like top 5 QBs for the next decade?

Bortles was never great, Carr got put into a system where he can succeed by pure memery.

I could play for the patriots and still win games, Jimmy G is nothing special

...

Who's on the same level as those teams? Steelers lost by 30+ to Philly. Panthers lost to Denver and Minnesota. The Eagles still need a few more wins to prove themselves. Cardinals are a big disappointment. Ravens are a weak 3-0.

Because Bortles's coaches are shit.

Because he's not smart, just like Tannehill. Listen to them talk and you can tell. Physical talent can only get you so far.

What a boring game.

Which team will Romo go to next season?

The fudge packers won't even break .500 this season

Which team is worse?

The bucs will never be good again.

Jameis can have the game of his life and we will still find a way to fuck it up

>waste 4th overall on Elliot
>3rd game of the season
>on the 1 yd line twice
>Prescott and Dunbar get the carries
Why are the Cowboys so fucking stupid

Browns? Who really wants an old washed up, injury prone QB like Romo?

The Browns snatched defeat from the jaws of victory today, so them

You don't really need to be smart to have a decent career, there's a ton of retards playing QB in the NFL and doing well but a lot of it is because they have a really talented coach telling them what to do.

>the Browns will always find a way to lose

who /chiefs/ here

>the mistake on the lake

>system
stop using buzzwords you cuck.

Not a soul.

MEMES

guess I'll just celebrate by myself

For the second time this season.

At least the Indians are going to the playoffs and the Cavs season is going to start soon, so Cleveland fans can pretend the Browns don't exist.

>panthers should have beat broncos if made field goal
>vikings destroyed and shut down panthers in second half
Sounds weird....

But... the vikings are the second or the actual best team in the league?

Who /2-1/ here???

Feels pretty comfy desu

>mfw all these jobber teams win except up

PLEASE suck Failcoons

Give us one

...

right here fampai

Vikings offense is suspect as fuck. They've won 2 games with just D/st. It'll be interesting to see them against a legit pass rush or secondary

How are you feeling about next week's game?

Defensively maybe, but their offense only has 3 TDs

...

>panthers should have beat broncos if made field goal

No. Please stop saying this. The attempt should have never happened because of the no call offensive hands to the face penalty that would have offset Harris' penalty.

Broncos almost lost only because of refball

This, you look at guys like newton, wilson, winston, taylor, prescott, mariota and brissett who you know are dumb as bricks but still do well at QB because they have a coach telling them what to do

This season doesn't feel like much of an improvement over last.

fire #28 on the steelers, that triggered me

>newton, wilson, winston, taylor, prescott, mariota and brissett

bruh

Vikes are movin on up!.

beep beep. Coming through

>Steelers CBs
Biggest meme alive

I need you to win for that glorious NFCS three-way split.

>surrendering an average of 34 points per game
>this is the easiest part of the schedule

bring me aboard, captain

can't wait to see where this ship sails

That's true

But they have an early bye week and there is room for growth with bradford and wr's getting chem. Then there's the chance Treadwell becomes a contributor next to Diggs.

Jameis has one of the highest football IQs ever tested. I think you're just racist.

Is that hair real?

to be fair Sproles has been doing that to CBs for years

Has Golden Tate killed himself yet?

>Come to Lions
>Have good year
>Calvin comes back to 100%
>Become irrelevant
>Bring in new receiver
>He turns into new #1
>Stafford won't throw to you anymore

>#28 on the steelers,
lel it looked like he was trying to block for sproles

The Broncos just won the SB based purely on their D. Also Bradford is Elite. Once he gets comfy the offense will take off.

nigga you can't be this delusional.
It wasn't O-line play that made you lose,it was defense that made you lose.
The Broncos defese,made up of the best secondary and front senven in the league.
That humiliated a top 3 OL and a dinamic QB in the superbowl.

You could have Tyron Smith,Yanda,Paradis,Incognito and Thomas there and Von Miller would have gone berserk as he did.

haha

i love how terrible the division's looking so far

>post yfw your favorite national football league team is 3-0

The Vikings defense is really good, but don't get ahead of yourself comparing them the Broncos' defense last season. That was an all time a great defense.

However, I don't think the Vikings need their defense to be that dominate to get far in the playoffs this season. My biggest worry with them is the offense becoming one dimensional.

I can't even imagine being a lions fan. I mean my team is constantly bad and always disappoints, but it's nothing like the lions.

What are the chances that Mark Ingram scores under 3 points tomorrow?

>they'll go 2-2 at best

...

...

still pretty worried about it desu, the offense was pedestrian again, we should have had way more points off all the turnovers. Although seeing the Steelers get BTFO today gives me hope.

Good old 'Skins. Tried as hard as they could to give that game away. Fortunately, Eli knows how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

I thought they really had a chance this year but, Somehow the Cowshits and Iggles are undefeated. Oh well, there's always next year.

But cowshits lost

I know the media tried to spin the loss as 'dak won in his debut' but

they still have a shot at being 2-2

Maybe they won't get into the playoffs again but I think they can be like 8-8

...

how retarded would the seahawks be if they played Russell Wilson against the jets with this new injury?

Let's hope they get it together for next week, Steelers are exposed and chiefs have to capitalize

So who actually has a chance this year? I think it's already down to like 8 teams at max.

>a better O-line doesn't help limit the pass rush
I don't even know how to reply to this.

...

He said in his press conference that he was trying to trick the DBs into going deeper into the end zone so he could run it in.

Obviously it did not work.

>preseason
What the fuck shitty ass week 4 bye
>week 3
Well I'm glad we have a week 4 bye since everyone is fucking ded

no don't do it

you've so much to live for

>thinking russell will ever miss a game

NO I DON'T

What did Damarious mean by this?

>tfw you can go into your week 4 bye with a comfy 3-0 record

I just want to be good again is that too much to ask for?

yeah you do user

i mean just think of all the cute girls just salivating at the prospect of a depressed, solemn bf that spends his days posting on a tibetan basket weaving forum

just imagine

fucking dude's still green, lost out there without morgan in the backfield. I think rollins may be the better corner, whereas randall has great playmaking ability

Honest to god. How does Jacksonville still have a team? They have literally never been good. I remember being young and for some reason rooting for them because I liked Jaguars or something? I think I just did a school paper on them.

lmao nigga thinks he's aqib talib or some shit

sit down son

Was that the one page paper you were talking about?

afc championship game is going to be pats - broncos again isn't it

>it was supposed to be our year

chargies why you do this to me

...

Zeke is looking good tonight desu

why be good when you can be comfortably bad though

no one can hurt you if you beat them to it

>They have literally never been good
underage detected

I didn't watch the Pittsburgh game.

What the fuck happened?

name one person who said it would be chorgers' year.

...

he must have thought he was a mile behind the line of scrimmage then.

>it was supposed to be our year
to move?

...

more likely that he hoped the defenders weren't paying attention to the line of scrimmage

Why couldn't we have tanked one more year and gotten Wentz instead of shitty Jameis Winston?

Thanks man, you just saved my life.

>artie burns
steelers need to stop drafting athletes

>his team fell for the black qb meme

Are the NFL scriptwriters slacking is this the worst season for "parity" ever? Seems like more teams get BTFO every weekend than ever before

>Stoolers actually spent their 1st round pick on Burns

that makes sense. i've seen a few players do that before

>winston and mariota are "sure-fire prospects", eagles don't trade up
>wentz is the best QB in a "terrible QB class", eagles trade up

>eagles 3-0
>bucs and titans 1-2

really makes you think

Did you even watch the game?

This team is sorry as fuck

They're the only two elite teams in the AFC.

>Rams scored 37 for a win
NFL is getting too bold. Kroenke probably started freaking out that nobody would show up to games for 2-3 field goals and made the call.

i'm not happy with that final series but i understand his approach, though it was asking a bit too much from the offensive line

>people were mocking vikings sam bradford trade
>top 3 defense in the league
>win now mode
This team might be 1-2 if it was Shaun Hill. He was so bad vs the titans, the defense/special teams carried him to that win.

by definition there can only be 2-4 elite teams per conference

his problem is that it's consistently the same 2 teams for the afc

Patriots need to beat the Broncos before I consider them number 1

Broncos fan here. The Bengals had me really worried in the first half, but holy shit did they implode on themselves once they felt the Broncos got too far ahead. Discipline issues too, but the refs were quick to their whistles on both sides today.

>3 teams win but don't move up

let me guess, the packers are one

you're welcome

Vikings stomped the panthers out in the second half, Broncos were very close to losing to them.

Vikings #2

>bungles
>1-2
>still top 10

i'm glad to help :)

...

And that's their 2nd round pick getting twisted around as a bonus.

See you week 7, battle of the 5-0's

Shit the Vikings stomped the panthers out after their first two drives.

w-we didn't need Wentz anyway, we have a lot better choices this year with Kizer, Watson, Kelly, Mayfield, Falk, and Kaaya...

r-right guys?

Did they even put the Raiders in the headlines?

The media bias is real. Why does the media hate us Raider bros?

>4. Eagles

why didn't you just take swag when you had the chance

looking forwards to it

Does the NFC have more parity than the AFC?

I feel like either the pats or broncos are guaranteed the championship spot already while NFC is a toss up between 4-6 solid teams

your only hope is that Rosen gets his head out of his ass before he becomes Hackenburg 2.0

...

The NFC may be a toss up, but I wouldn't confidently call any team in the conference solid besides the Vikings.

>winston and mariota are "sure-fire prospects", eagles don't trade up

it sure as fuck wasn't for lack of trying

the titans saved chip from himself

Wentz is basically Mariota without the random spurts of "what the fuck are you doing?"

If Bridgewater was healthy, the vikings would be blowing teams out. He was really clicking well in the offense and moving the ball down the field. Really looked like this was the year he really broke out, seriously unfortunate.

Bradford will find his groove and it will become centered around him, then look smoother. The schedule looks like a 13-14 win season, barring injury to Bradford of course.

>after the bridgewater injury and bradford trade /nfl/ was predicting the eagles and vikings to finish with terrible records
>two best teams in the NFC

I wouldn't call the Vikings solid till they can score on offense more consistently

the short answer is yes

why aren't the panthers solid?

because they lost to the undefeated, superbowl champions or lost to another undefeated team?

before today, the steelers were a consensus top 4/5 team in the afc, and the eagles just dominated them

why aren't they solid?

last year's champions couldn't score offense consistently

Skins

Hard to say, Pats are only good because of the belicheat system. The moment he retires that whole barn will implode on itself and whatever sucker is sent to replace belicheat.

Broncos just have incredible luck in drafting with John Elway, but they are in no way infallible. Remember, the Raiders beat them last year

>why aren't the panthers solid

they have a losing record and looked like shit today

by solid I mean a team that could make a decent playoff run and is probably looking at 10-6+ territory

Mainly Vikings, Eagles, Seahawks, Packers and maybe the Giants and Panthers

While not all those teams are playing at the same level its still early enough in the season that a team (packers or panthers for example) could get their wheels turning and turn an okay start into a good season

Who's the boy on the right?

Did he get her autograph?

>fitzpatrick holds out for a contract in the summer
>bets on himself to not throw tons of picks
>does exactly that

really makes you think

as much as i'd loved to see based jew playing QB, I hope Jimmy G is good enough to play. If Edelman goes down that's losing your 2nd best receiver as well.

fuckin beautiful

He's got almost two seasons to do that though since he isn't going to be eligible in 2017

a winner

That team needs to do tackling drills every practice.

>losing record
because they lost by a fg to the undefeated champions and the vikings, another top 5, undefeated team, out played them today

do you really think that record determines how good a team is

if the vikings' first 3 games consisted of the broncos, pats, and panthers and they only won one, would you consider them not solid

are you dumb

>people wanted sanchez over bradford

smhtbhfam

If that was you, you are dead to me

Bad since the Chargers need Sproles back right now.

because it was a piece of shit 17-10 shitfest in Nashville

nobody fucking cares about the Titans and we didn't shit on them badly enough to warrant an "lol look at these niggers go" cutaway

raiders will get attention next week when they meme on the ravens (who are actually total shit)

>after 3 weeks, people think certain teams will be in the NFC or AFC game

The Falcons were 6-0 last year.

>Stevie Johnson out
>>Oliver tears Achilles
>Keenan Allen torn ACL week 1
>Woodhead tears ACL week 2
>Te'o tears Achilles week 3

Yep.

Yeah and then the meme RB got exposed.

>its week 3

how is it dumb to think another Patriots-Broncos AFC title game isn't inevitable?

not every team has a choker as bad as Matt Ryan

W-we should have won week 1 and 3 pls no bully

>Implying Seabass breaking the record for most 50+ field goals isn't worth talking abut.

>this blatantly jealous

isn't Te'o shit though?

no they weren't

Shut up diddler

the busc are terrible

Yeah, but still.

Losing a captain is always tough for morale

No they won't
t.Lived in Vegas for 16 years

you are confirmed dumb

people aren't basing their assumptions off records alone, but past team performance as well

I'd say the panthers have a higher chance than the texans of doing well in the long run, for example

So what possessed Nick Foles in 2013?

>6-0

Yeah and then they lost fucking 8 in a row

>implying I'm wrong with any of those observations.
His only mistake was getting caught cheating again, after he used up his boss's connections to get the league to cover up the worst parts of his actions and give him a slap on the wrist when he was caught cheating the first time.

dropped picks

>tfw you give a legend a heart attack by losing to a rookie

Looked at Freeman's gamelog he was fucking insane in the first 8 games for them team going 7-1. Then became a ghost, that faggot literally ruined my draftkings experience.

>drafting is luck

Is this what fans of shit franchises tell themselves or something?

>you now remember nick foles throwing for 7 touchdowns

NEVER FORGET
FOOTBALL
IN
ASS

They need to start posting adjusted interception rate during games.

Watching all these INT highlights today, over half are the fault of receivers giving up or tipping the ball.

>if the vikings' first 3 games consisted of the broncos, pats, and panthers

It's impossible for the Vikings to play regular season games against the Broncos and Pats in the same season. Are you dumb?

at this point i wouldn't mind seeing a finger football being shoved up there

I think you missed the point of the post

Hey that's because of Lake not putting the football up his ass

It is a lot of luck. Even 3d space chess master Belichick misses on a lot of picks. Has to be the right player, right system, no bad injuries, etc.

>BUT BUT BUT IT WAS JUST THE BROWN LOL
>BUT BUT IWAS JST THE BEARS LMAO
>BEN AND BROWN WILL DESTORY YOU DUDE
>it was just the steelers, man
>dumb iggles, no ring lmaoing at ypur life
LOVING EVERY LAUGH

that is irrelevant you dumb shit

i'm obviously trying to illustrate a scenario in which a presently high-ranked team plays against 3 other high-ranked teams and only wins once, inquiring if you'd let that 1-2 record obscure your judgement of what is still obviously a very solid, competitive team

substitute the broncos and patriots for team x and team y

i don't give a shit

the name, conference and division are irrelevant

goddamn you are dumb

There's a reason the best run franchises consistently draft better than the worst run franchises

There are the 2 extra games that don't follow the divisional pattern that could make this possible.

>Lake
>Male

They cancelled it out by ruining >18-1 electric boogaloo though

Who 1-2 here?

a system

a meme

Who/bestintheirdivision/here?

Feels good af

Nope.

here senpai

>carr was at like 150 passes without a pick before that deflected drop

feels bad man

Actually belicheat sucks dick at drafting players. He's great at picking up free agent talent and scamming other team with players he has used up.

The only person who currently has a good drafting record is McKenzie of the Raiders since not one of their major draft picks have turned in busts. But we'll see if that holds up for this year.

yes and that's still ultimately a consequence of luck

suppose i concede that elway is highly insightful and spot-on in drafts, that it's not just luck

well, elway's only in that position because once upon a time someone got lucky and drafted him, and elway was lucky enough to sustain no major injuries and become a pillar in broncos' culture

at some point everything becomes a consequence of arbitrary luck, although that's a particularly bleak and futile outlook on things

a dream

>tfw Rivers will never have the bulletproof connection with another receiver like he will with Gates or Floyd

>tfw Rivers will never have a ring

I don't know why I started thinking this suddenly, but I'm very sad now.

Chargers reporting in.

Hey, can you give us Arians? Thanks.

>who is DJ Hayden

>win division last year
>dead last thus far

Only if we get Rivers

He has bulletproof connections with Woodhead and Keenan, but.... y'know.

a system of memes in a dream

Well, it'll only work if Rivers and Arians are together.

So how long are pretenders like the Ravens and Vikings going to be on top of their respective conferences?

So Browns, why didn't you take Wentz?

"Washed up" would imply he was good at some point.

>drafting is luck

Wow, /nfl/ never fails to make me laugh.

Luck is only partly a factor in those things. And over time luck becomes more and more marginalized anyway.

>Browns
>doing anything right

hi

They need more names to add to the jersey

Slap on 2 more so far this year.

>the only threat to the Vikings in their division struggled against the fucking Jags and Loins
wew lad

>The Browns fired several scouts prior to April’s NFL draft because they were high on quarterback Carson Wentz, CBS Sports’ Jason La Canfora reports.

>Cleveland had the No. 2 pick in the draft, but traded it to the Eagles along with a fourth-rounder in exchange for the No. 8, No. 77 and No. 100 picks, along with future first and second-rounders. Then, they turned around and traded the eighth selection to Tennessee, and chose wideout Corey Coleman at No. 15. Philadelphia, meanwhile, selected Wentz at No. 2.

>While the team’s chief strategy officer said in July that the Browns didn’t see Wentz as one of the top 20 quarterbacks in the league, La Canfora reports that some of the more experienced scouts in the organization preferred Wentz over Goff, who eventually went No. 1. It was this schism in the organization that caused the scouts to be released before their contracts expired after the draft.

Brady, Vollmer, Solder, Stork, Wendell, Edelman, Gronk, Vereen, Chandler Jones, Jamie Collins, Hightower, Wilfork, Chung, McCourty

That's 14 Patriots draft picks that were Super Bowl winning starters in 2014

shitbirds literally got lucky 3 weeks in a row, but the vikings are legit

>Implying he was drafted in 2014

He has strong connections with them, but its nowhere near the same level he had with Gates and Floyd, they didn't even have to turn around to know exactly where that ball was going to be. Its going to be a sad day in San Diego and hopefully fucking not Los Angeles when Gates retires.

We didn't want to end his career before it started

Why do the Browns still exist?

What is the most inconsistent team in the league?

Part of the problem is that Rivers doesn't throw clean routes and leads his receivers into hits. I've been saying this for years but you compare him to any of the other elite QBs and he really does not give a shit if his WR is going to get his head taken off because of the ball placement. Hard to feel sorry for him missing so many guys over the years to injuries that he helped cause.

You're an idiot. Why don't you research how Elway ended up in Denver. Luck had nothing to do with it

Don't forget that the packers lost to the vikings with a QB that was there for 10 days.

The offense grows stronger each passing week, hopefully treadwell becomes digg's support.

>Cowboys above the Gaints

Senpai...

Ravens are phoney

Browns should be put to death as an organization.

They probably wouldn't even win at the college level.

>firing scouts because they aren't part of the echo chamber

i don't get it isn't that a good thing?

Well, I'm just hoping that Gates can retire with, at least, tying Tony G. with TDs and Rivers can retire with some great numbers because lord knows the Spanos don't give a shit about winning.

> I've been saying this for years but you compare him to any of the other elite QBs and he really does not give a shit if his WR is going to get his head taken off because of the ball placement.

This is literally the first time I've ever heard anyone say this of Rivers.

Peyton? Yes. Rivers? No. Rivers is a great passer of anticipatory throws, i.e. throwing where the receiver is going to be before he is.

How many Chargers WRs have gotten their "head taken off" of late? The only person with head injuries is Addae and that's self-inflicted.

>only 14 picks total for a team
>doesn't include when they were picked
>Said team was also caught cheating
I'm pretty sure I can pull out of my hat how many players were drafted by the team that won the superb owl and it would look the same.

The point still stands East Germany, The Patriots don't draft gold a majority of the time.

Cred Forumsmen, if you're tired of refball, you should let the nfl know that you are in favor of sensors being put on uniforms, balls, and the field. There are no bad or questionable calls or spots if the sensors detect a down at inches. Also remove pass interference as a penalty because that's the defense's job.

I don't blame CBS either. That was embarrassing to watch. I'm embarrassed for Steelers fans.

>>only 14 picks total for a team
14 starters, you retard. Not 14 on the roster.

AYO HOL UP

Say sorry, right fucking now!

Sorry that the Chargers lost.

...

catching the ball would be impossible for any receiver if a defender can just tackle him at any point in time.

Oh, the ball is going your way? I'll just knock you on your ass so the pass is incomplete

stupid idea

Panther O-line was 3 times better and the QB 10 times more mobile
>it mattered
O-lines are a number,the Broncos pass rush is infinite.
Got the metaphor ?

No eyebrow Whoopie Goldberg lookin mafucker

>ravens looking like they might make the playoffs

their gonna meme through the pats/broncos hegemony aren't they?

I'm an Eagles fan and even I think you're buggin.

Hahahahahah you went GHOST lil nigga

The only time the pats offense could do jack shit was when the broncos were down to their 4th and 5th safeties.

pls give gore one last shot at a ring

or at least help him into the top 10 all time yardage

sorry you play for such a shit team

Would like to see a Steelers/Ravens AFC CG.

Desean Jackson

Is Flacco the Eli of the AFC?

Will he save us from these meme teams?

Miller will literally kill Flacco on the field

Nobody is beating this year's Patriots squad once Brady gets back. Nobody.

What year do you think this is

that's one of the dumbest and more biased ways to look at power rankings.
>team X defeated team Y by T points
>team Z defeated team Y by T-1 points
>ignore all other games and team X>team Z
if you want to use that logic make all of the calculations and post your own power rank.
otherwise stfu

i'm an idiot but that's nothing to do with our argument

you're clearly missing the point, which is that at some point everything becomes a consequence of luck

the broncos were in position to draft elway because of luck

the broncos FO wanted to draft elways instead of player x or y because some volume of luck brought them to denver

this goes on infinitely to the conception of the franchise

>a better O-line shat the bed this one time
>this means that O-lines do not matter when it comes to stopping the pass rush
what is anecdotal evidence

flacco only pulled an eli once rather than twice despite having more opportunities

>le lose to the iggles and lelphins man

>tfw your team is 2-1 but the offense is shit

>Nobody is beating this year's Patriots squad once Brady gets back. Nobody.
Yeah, the Pats haven't lost with Tom Brady since last year when they faced a weaker Broncos team.

Whats with all these rookie/new QBs putting up crazy numbers? Is it just that easy to pass in the nuNFL or are they actually legit?

lmao the giants look like they might make the playoffs tho

>tfw your team is 3-0 but the offense is shit

>Redskins
Loss.

>Pats
Brady's return game, so you know we gettin' that ass whoopin

>Tits
the only game that we can possibly win this season, but I'm sure we'll find a way to fuck it up

>Bengals
Loss

>Jets
Loss

>Cowboys
Yeah, loss

Ravens
lol loss probably in the same fashion as last week

>Steelers
Loss but this could be a trap game since the Eagles killed them today

>Giants
Loss

>Bengals again
Loss

>Bills
Loss

>Chargers
Loss but we could win

>Stoolers again
Loss

at best, 3-13 again. At worst, 0-16.

It was already over before it began.

Is this the part of the season where people get really up their own ass?

that final throw was legit

>prosinski getting hurdled

some things never change

At least you have Lelbron.

They aren't putting up crazy numbers, but they aren't making many mistakes. Cam, Stafford, luck, etc. came in the league shattering passing records, but also had high turnovers

...

They lost to the Eagles, Jets and Dolphins. They didn't look all that hot after the initial BRADY RAGE. I am still amazed that the great Bill Belichick let Peyton and his noodle arm throw two touch downs against him.

0-16 is not possible. You'll win a game.

>Last year's depleted Pats team versus this year's reloaded and hungry squad
Two very different opponents.

Good, let them come. Third time's a charm after all

good teams and defenses around them, i mean is this really true for any teams other than eagles, broncos, pats, and cowboys? cowboys are pretenders, eagles are coming together, and broncos and pats were already elite teams

...

I really think the Browns are better than the Bears.

At least the Browns have come close to winning games.

luck doesn't actually exist

i think the term you're looking for is "chance"

see you can't possibly compare last year's broken offense to what we have now. That's just fucking retarded. EVERYONE was injured last year.

yup

you now remember this game

isn't that the same premise

...

No, the Broncos getting Elway had nothing to do with luck, they made the best offer to the Colts.

STFU Donkey brains

...

i have a question

why are you so dumb

Oh boy Minnesota is a white nationalist team now

I'm not.

You're the one who thinks "Last year broken Patriots offense" = "This year's not-broken Patriots offense"

It doesn't. There is, in fact, virtually NOTHING in common between the two.

trust in executive caliber game management until the 2nd half of a close playoff game

We're going all the way to the last 2 minutes of the NFC championship game this year!

Belichick tried to be cheeky in this game and it cost him big time.

you still don't understand

the specifics pertaining how elways arrived in denver don't particularly matter because it can all be reduced to chance

by chance the broncos' FO was comprised of people that believed it was worth making that trade to the colts

dumb

i never said that though

this is my first time saying anything

it's just dumb to think any team is invulnerable after three weeks of the season

brady had a shit start to 2014, peaking with that game against the chiefs where he was benched, and he bounced back

you're deducing far too much with far too little

I will go to Baltimore and kill Flacco with my bear hands if he meme's through the Broncos again in Mile High.

you literally have donkey brains and got in troube for diddling

you are the dumb one

dumb times two

if you think everything ever is just luck, why do you bother talking about football?

>Two very different opponents.
>you can't possibly compare last year's broken offense to what we have now. That's just fucking retarded. EVERYONE was injured last year.

The Pats are a good enough team that you don't have to get defensive and play the "b...but...but" games whenever they lose. Everyone plays with injuries.

Pats fans are incapable of not whining or making excuses.

Their team got beat by Denver twice last season and it's going to happen again. They'll have even more excuses when that happens too.

i recognized that that outlook renders everything rather bleak and futile early in the argument

i just want to make it apparent that chance and/or luck is absolutely an important element in accumulating personnel and staff

Say you're sorry

you just underestimate the skills that greater people than you posses

You are not denying that fact that you have donkey brains

It's not the location, its the team.
If you hadn't notice since that Super Bowl heart breaker, WE FUCKING SUCK

not at all

i agree these people exist, but feel the only reason they contribute to team a instead of team b can always be reduced to chance and/or luck

dumb squared

I don't get that reasoning. Staff and personnel is the least luck based part of building a team. Management interviews a lot of candidates. They choose based upon resumes and convincing plans.

Elway and Belichick didn't end up running their teams out of luck. They were hired for a reason.

>System babies do well in a system
Shock! How many of them still did well after leaving the patriots?

>top two literally because of the packers

THANKS CAPERS

So who gets fired, if anyone, from Chicago tomorrow?

There was that one random season where the Titans went off undefeated for the first few months.

Everything in the universe can be reduced to chance at its most basic level

king of the manlets

Not tomorrow, but very soon (red line)

you're not thinking on a high and abstract enough level

>management interviews a lot of candidates
and how did management arrive? who hired them, and how did those people arrive with the organization?

i know

i said it was bleak and somewhat futile to think of it this way

They should clean house. The GM is probably first to go. Fox should leave too, but what coach really wants to take that interim gig and ruin their future chances at a full time HC job because the Bears are so shit.

>bandwagon both Bears and Colts
>1 wins out of 6 games combined
should I kill myself?

...

Bowlen and Kraft are a big reason why the Broncos and Pats are as successful as they are. They bought the teams. Can't call that luck.

Where's p12 at? I need Big Ben sack .webms

You really think it's gonna take 3 more losses before a firing?

Its happening this year.

When was the last time they won an Owl?

You can't bandwagon shit teams retard.

Dungy is so creepy staring into the camera.

I miss Chiefs shitposting.

Let's be fair, it was against Oakland

Next you're going to say it's luck that the NFL was ever created.

It was bad luck for the world when you weren't aborted.

>it's luck they decided to invest in football and not educated guesses
your logic is stupid and its luck you weren't aborted

Absolutely cheked and rekt.

CHECKED AND WRECKED

SAVAGE
>dat git

maybe

dunno i'd probably just stay out of that argument

agreed

glad someone has some sense

it's chance and/or luck that they invested in the broncos and patriots among a litany of other nfl teams

it's chance and/or luck that the broncos and patriots were at that point susceptible to being bought out instead of some other team

i hope you understand that your post is getting all of these responses because you got some lucky digits and not because you said anything particularly scathing or novel

Amari is overrated and catches a football as well as a high school lineman

I BELIEVE I AM ON THE RECORD AS HAVING SAID I WAS UNSURE AND UNOPTIMISTIC ABOUT MIKE SMITHS DEFENSIVE COORDINATION

Damn I've been killin' it on reddit lately. Got myself an additional 4000 comment karma in the last 3-4 days.

Literally just sign Alshon and draft OL and CB

I'm sure you thought this post would get replies

> IT DOESN'T COUNT
HMMM

You had one chance to end the Manning vs Brady debate and instead you not only let manning TKO you, You then prove Brady is a system baby by dominating the 3 games he's not in with an understudy who's not even back up material and wet eared rookie.

>tfw you're a depressed asshole who never really knows what he wants, constantly screws things up for himself, and uses sports as a distraction from the reality of life

hey, my team is 3-0 tho

And I'm on the record as

*teleports behind you*
*HADOUKENS*

Too easy.

>Play off match up where all the starters are healthy
uhhh no. Not even close. Try again.

at least we've an elite punter

who would you have preferred to hire for DC

i don't think many people were on board with the mike smith hiring initially, given that koetter was the hc

A trap that uses >her powers to curse other's teams

>so upset lmao

Anyone have a picture of the Eagles' trophy case?

...

Injuries are not an excuse. Having good depth is a part of team building.

The ones you claim would turn the tide were. And they got stuffed.

What if you have major injuries and no depth?

How major we talking?

You haven't faced one competent team yet and all were decided in the last minute. Can't wait for the Chiefs and Broncos to blow you fucks out

Lovie Smith.
Or Jim Schwartz.
What the fuck....
Are yall fucking kidding me

...

>chargers decimated with injuries again

Loving
Every
Loss

Still waiting for Bosa :^)

>Jim Schwartz
cucked again

i don't think lovie would've been receptive to a demotion

jim schwartz seems like it would've been a great hire in hindsight though

The fuck happened to the bungles lol?

We play better vs the division.

Also I'm not sure what the Raiders did to get your panties in a bunch.

do you need to be reminded

...

Mike smith was just a bad idea. I knew from the outset. If every coach is gonna bring in the same cronies he worked with before on another team that failed, I'd rather not. Just, lets just bire lane kiffin. Pls? We might not be good but it wuld be fun.

>14 years ago
the kids you touch weren't even alive then lel

...

>tfw shallow as fuq team

thanks baalke

yeah, moving from lovie who did essentially that to koetter who assembled a staff with the same approach didn't inspire much confidence

>cucked again

It's fun as hell the way Cleveland is using Terelle Pryor, I wish more teams were willing to think outside the box to get production out of athletes like him

oh boy.

This just in from the USMS, just registed in as a 7.4 on the REKTer scale, evacuate sides immediately.

M-me too...

well you can't even express the basis of your opinion so it's only natural that i'd forget it existed

TRIPS CONFIRM

you know it's actually quite easy to make jokes if you're allowed to conjure their punchline out of the fictitious fucking ether with no regard for fact and/or intellectual integrity

Once Gordon comes back and Coleman's hand heals, the three headed dragon will be fun as fuck to watch.

I hope pryor somehow makes it to the prob owl this year.

Or perhaps you're just extremely easy to make jokes about...

Bortles wasn't good, his INTs were just easier to forgive as a second-year player. Now that it's his third year it's obvious he's just another fuck-it-I'm-going-deep meme QB.

i think i can get behind this

he probably WAS the kid getting diddled back then, where do you think he learned it?

dumb

>falcons, bucs, and saints in the bottom 10
man i love the nfcs

He's got at least two more weeks of playing everywhere, if he can keep producing like he did today I'm sure the OSU homers will get him in there

>In the last five games going back to the 2015 playoffs, the Broncos have held Tom Brady, Cam Newton (twice), Andrew Luck and Dalton to a collective passer rating under 70.0.

I guess Jameis is next.

Love a tossup in the NFC waiting for Vikings iggles to see #1 in NFC

>The Browns are a decent kicker away from being 2-1

Come on now, they're better than the damn Titans at the very least

>It'll be interesting to see them against a legit pass rush or secondary
I'm fine with people saying the offense is suspect but these meme about them needing to face a real D needs to stop. All three teams they've played have been good on defense and you see the result.

>b-but the Titans
Titans are probably the best defense of the three. They allowed only 17 points to Oakland and 13 to Detroit when both teams scored at least 28 in their other games.

>Eagles

Heh

>all Lions stars literally rage quit their careers because the Lions are so incompetent

Barry Sanders and Megatron can start a support group

can hardly wait

They've looked real fucking amazing, and they manhandled pittsburgh today. The eagles bought the farm for Wentz and it is paying great dividends.

Who underneath is better breh?
Srs

they've started 3 different ones so far and even used pryor for a few snaps

Just finished watching the raiders-titans tape and wow did the refs fuck over tennessee at the end. Clearly the nfl wants to manufacture a good raiders team so Las Vegas citizens will vote to spend $500 mill to make the move.

>le doesn't know where the line of scrimmage is man
>good

I also sleep like this

Imagine Eagles vs Vikings NFC Championship, a game created by Bridgewater's exploding knee months before

I seriously hope there is another giants pats super bowl where Tom Brady and the Patriots spank the damn giants so hard that they can't piss sitting down.

i'm confident he knew he'd passed the LOS but was the defense wouldn't notice and he could freeze them

i'd like that actually

and if the nfc rep wins there's another franchise finally winning its first chip
