Olympian1010 7,477 Posted September 11, 2020 #111 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Yep, the season is off to a fanatic start as Chiefs fans boo during the moment of silence for racial equality. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Grassmarket 2,757 Posted September 11, 2020 #112 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Because in America only important people who appear on TV are allowed to have opinions. Oh, and what’s this? Fans have also been banned from Dressing how they normally do Wearing facepaint as they normally Chanting as they normally do. So, in other words the team & organisation went out of their way to call their own paying customers a bunch of racists. I’d say boos were mild in the circumstances. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8716917/Chiefs-nix-headdresses-face-paint-start-NFL-season.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,594 Posted September 11, 2020 #113 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I'm in for the sport, not a national anthem (which isn't even mine ) or clothes. Chiefs beat Texans 34-20. Clyde Edwards-Helaire will get plenty of OROY buzz given how the rookie QBs will presumably struggle without OTAs (and the fact only Joe Burrow will probably play 16 games in the defensively toughest division of the lot).

Monzanator 3,594 Posted September 13, 2020 #114 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Some upsets in the early W1 games. The "tanking" Jaguars beat the Colts and I have no idea how the Lions managed to blow a 23-6 lead versus Mitchell fuckin Trubisky-led offense. Also Redskins.. ahem.. WSH Football Team beat the Eagles. Raiders beat Panthers on the road, our defense was garbage but the Panthers D was somehow even worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crovitlaci 177 Posted September 13, 2020 #115 Share Posted September 13, 2020 What a choke from the Lions lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,477 Posted September 13, 2020 #116 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Ah, good to know my Lions are in their normal form. The best thing about being a Lions fan is that you never have to worry about making the postseason. You can really enjoy the 3-7 regular season wins you get. Unless of course you lose all your regular season games too... “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Monzanator 3,594 Posted September 18, 2020 #117 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Cleveland Browns beat Cincinnati Bengals 35-30 on Thursday night. Joe Burrow looks legit but they need some serious OL improvement or else he ends up on IR fast. Way too many hits. Browns can lean on Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt and win a lot of games with Baker Mayfield throwing ca. 25 passes a game. Bengals run defense is worst in the league but Browns RBs are Top 3 duo in the league if not the best overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,594 Posted September 22, 2020 #118 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Monday Night Football just ended and Las Vegas Raiders beat New Orleans Saints 34-24!!! Brees can't throw beyond 20 yds anymore, Michael Thomas was out and his YAC were missing. Without them it was a dink & dunk show to RB Kamara. Thankfully we had this all covered and shut the Saints down in the second half minus one up-tempo drive late in the 4th when Saints had to chase the scoreline. On Sunday several big name players got injured and are lost for the season: Saquon Barkley, Nick Bosa and Courtland Sutton tore their ACLs. Meanwhile the Jets look like the worst team in football now. 49ers lost Garoppolo, Bosa and Mostert and Nick Mullens still outplayed Sam Darnold and the pitiful Jets offense. At this rate Jets will be in line for Trevor Lawrence in the draft. HC Adam Gase is a dead man walking there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monzanator 3,594 Posted November 2, 2020 #120 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Patriots fell to 2-5 after Cam Newton fumble cost them a shot at the game-tying FG vs Bills. Newton was one play away from beating the Seahawks in W2 but he's been absolutely horrible in October and it's rather clear he won't be offered a long-term deal after this season. Meanwhile Raiders are 4-3 after beating Browns 16-6 in weather conditions called "graupel" Apparently even Americans don't use this word too often and don't know the full meaning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
