That geno hit was dirty

Could be worse....could trade you a hof qb for peanuts srs brett farvre was a falcon is the 4th biggest slap in the face to the shit franchise

I have a 1991 Fleer Ultra Brett Favre Rookie card that I pulled myself during Christmas as a kid in the '90s. I mostly keep it as a monument to the Falcon's stupidity, as I'm not a Packers fan, and the card really isn't worth all that much.

This latest fully guaranteed contract is by far Kirk's most damaging one to his team

Kirk Cousins greatest accomplishment in his career is getting paid

 

[Xavier Renegade Angel]

I know he sucks but throwing a rookie in for the last week's of a season while still knee deep in a battle for the NFC south seems stupid.

You're just saying that because you're a bucs fan. Just kidding we should have never paid cousins now we look dumber then we already do (which is what the falcons do best).

Only 100 million is guaranteed 2 year contract at worst. But it's a worse contract then daks

He's the dsp of qbs

I honestly can't articulate why, but I feel like that is Jay Cutler.

I'm going to have horrible dreams of Kino Casino welcoming King Kirk onto their show, aren't I? PPP will be dressed as a large Vikings helmet and Andy will sample some winter snow off camera. Kohls Cash Back for all the big donos

I would say you are at a solid 6.4/10 on the panic scale. Do with that as you will.

i will pray and buy a Detroit jersey (once Bates's is back in stock) and hope that my consumerism and support is enough to please the Lord.

I hope you buy the manager of the gym a Christmas gift for being so considerate of your braincells. Smacking your head with a hammer will teach you more useful information about your team than listening to national sports media talking heads.

Like I said it’s muted so you can really only see the tickers and the talking heads flailing their arms. I don’t know if *man flailing arms enthusiastically at other man while woman sits on the other side of the studio nodding her head* is any sort of indication of anything.

I did some checking and it has to do with the defense’s injuries to which I say: f it. We’re the lions and we’ve rarely been good at anything for the last decade. If it means putting it on the offense so be it. They have a lot of motivation this time around and sometimes that’s more important. Some times you just need to be good at one half of the game to win…

I can't believe Aaron Rodgers did this to the Jets. Such a well run organization until he showed up

This shit is hilarious. This is obviously coming from Joe Douglas, so I have to maintain some level skepticism. Nothing is my fault! It's all the kids'! There is some corroborating evidence for the game ball speech and there's pictures of him in the draft room on the phone. The best evidence is that the Jets have been ineptly run for a long time. Putting your 17 year old nepo b aby in charge is exactly what a retarded owner would do.

The Chargers have the most beautiful uniforms in the NFL with the powder blues, yellow, and electricity theme. Whoever decided to stop wearing the powder blues at some point should have been sent to a gulag.

Almost all NFL owners seem like nepotistic retards. I look forward to "Brick" and Jack further fucking up the organization when Woody dies.

I dunno when multiple of the kids are involved you're more likely to wind up with a Denver situation where they all squabble over who gets to control the family's biggest asset, take each other to court, and be ultimately forced to sell the team.
Of course, the downside is that you're then ruled by a corporate board of owners, which I'm not sure is better.

I don't mind the Navy Blues of the 90s-2000s, but yes, the powder blues are best.
Similarly, I do like the Broncos lighter blue and orange color scheme rather than the dark blue and orange.

I was going to say Jeudy dodged a bullet because of Madden, but then I remembered he's on the Browns now... Maybe next trade

Also for people like me who were confused about the free kick thing, here's an explainer

According to the NFL rulebook, a team can attempt a free kick if they call a fair catch on the previous play.
But the play is not like a typical field goal. Instead, it looks like a kickoff with the ball marked at spot of the fair catch. The ensuing kick if worth three points, like a field goal, if it's good.
Dicker's try was from 57 yards out as the ball was at the Denver 47-yard line, meaning JK Scott was holding from the midfield logo. It is the longest fair catch kick in NFL history.

I never even knew that was an option, probably because it's impractical in 99.99% of situations, but huh. It was the first successful use of this for points since 1976.
The kick

 

[HodgePodgeRogerDodger]

Didn’t Rodger’s admit to fucking up his mind with ayahuasca to get over being molested and to cure his homosexuality causing the refs to hate him to get over some shit?

Dude, he's currently having a career year on the Browns.
Turns out if you're a good contested catcher having a QB like Jameis is a career asset
