The NFL Thread - Root for your favorite team (or laugh at the Browns, whichever's easier)

Did anybody else also start the day without a Netflix subscription and then end the day without a Netflix subscription?

the.streameast.app, there are of course many others. I've just found them to be the most reliable over the years for all sports. There are a only a few feeds that they all restream anyway.

 

[Amerikaner Teddybär]

I'm starting to fear this is the case.

Duck the Chiefs. Someone break Mutthomes leg

Don Shula, John Madden, Vince Lombardi, Marty Schottenheimer, hear us!

Curse the Chiefs for 50 years without a Super Bowl victory!

Stroud is legitimately retarded and retards don't process emotions well.

Well he did have a low Wonderlic score.

Wonderlic deez nuts, heyooo I'm positive nobody has ever made this joke before.

I have that full Athletic report on how retarded the Jets are if anyone is interested:

The Jets and Giants should just merge into one bad team called the "Jumbo Jets" instead of being two bad teams sharing one stadium.

 

[Elwood P. Dowd]

I didn't watch the Texans-Ravens and only watched a quarter of the Steelers-Chiefs. And I regret nothing.

Never had one in between, either. Streameast-dot-app for all your 18 seconds behind the actual action on the field needs. (IIRC there's a picture of LeBron James using the site on a laptop at an NBA game or something. They should ask for a celebrity endorsement.)

edit:

The Jets and Giants should just merge into one bad team called the "Jumbo Jets" instead of being two bad teams sharing one stadium.

There's this weird NY thing where you're Jets/Mets/Islanders or Giants/Yankees/Rangers. Knew a life long NooYawker and Mets fan who actually thought the Red Sox winning the world series was great, since it let him make fun of Yankees fans.

Is the Chiefs black magic stronger than Tommlin’s, or are they finally showing up now that they’re going into the post-season?

The Chiefs secondary has half their interceptions in the last 11 days, the receiver room is full of starters for the first time in 4 months, and Justin Watson actually caught the 1 deep ball he gets a game. It's not black magic, that's Tomlin's thing. It's 30 years of karmic debt.

Either way that entire fanbase is still insufferable

I'm ok with being a villain like the bad man and the Patriots, but hopefully I'm not insufferable.

Curse the Chiefs for 50 years without a Super Bowl victory!

That already happened. 1969 to 2019.

Ooh, then we could replace the Giants with the Delaware Clams!

Thank god for family members on Christmas

At least when the Patriots were doing the "Evil Empire" routine, they weren't also Media Darlings. Granted back then we didn't have borderline omnipresent Social Media or Swifites to make things truly insufferable like we do now...

It needs to happen again!

 

[AllieKat]

Well he did have a low Wonderlic score.

As I said:

Edit: I just saw Stroud in profile as they cut to a commercial. My God he has huge nigger lips. Even for a black guy they are massive. Dude looks like a racist caricature.

Phrenology stays undefeated.

Dude is the blackest gorilla nigger since JaMarcus "All I Can Eat" Russell

 

[Quarterback Rex Grossman]

Texans had a chance to make it interesting after the safety and getting to the goal line. Instead of potentially making it 10-10, now it's a 31-2 blowout

Shitty team meets good team. A tale as old as time. The Texans are the Browns of the AFC South and only trick people into thinking they aren't garbage by being in a division with three even worse teams.

As a Browns fan, it's hilarious when Ravens and Steelers fans complain about their "shitty" coaches that they have had "too long".

Hue Jackson is certainly available.

I love seeing Browns picks ending up in the playoffs.

Fuck...who am I kidding. It's not like we wouldnt have fucked up the picks if we didn't do the Watson trade.

It's not even fair to compare the Texans to the Browns. Bill O'Brien destroyed that team and the Browns decided to rebuild them for the right to overpay a rapist that can't fucking play.

There’s a reason the Texans always get scheduled into the 1st Saturday afternoon wild card playoff game.

I remember the Andy Dalton Bengals were in that same slot, with similar results.

I feel like there are four types of teams in the NFL.

Good teams: self-explanatory

Bad teams: again self-explanatory

Poorly managed teams: they can do well in spite of their management and coaching, but it’s rare and ultimately harms the franchise in the long run

Teams that are fucked by refs and the rules: it does not matter how good you are or how bad you are. The refs will call back wins and officiate away touchdowns. Rules will be broken and rules will be ignored for the sake of fucking you over.

"Hey, that's my team!" said every NFL fan ever at some point in their life. Generally in their early 20s, but I've seen some salty 60 year olds going off, too.

For some teams it’s a momentary thing. Like the Seahawks in Super Bowl XL. For others, like the Lions it’s something you can legitimately point to with rule changes and actual bad calls every season.

The Lions are screwed though, Zebras hate Lions.

It's become my favorite thing to watch random NFL games and spot the one dude wearing a Guardian cap running around like he's the Great Gazoo. It's never more than one. Bonus points when it's a skill position guy.
