Tyreek!

I almost feel vindicated when week 1 2012 the Cowgirls beat my G-Men in the Thursday opener. Nice that Brady feels that too :lol:

Bad break for Eric Berry though, that guy shut Gronk down all night, is he the first to do that, ever?

Stephon Gilmore burnt over the top. Happened enough times in Buffalo, and it's already happening in New England. Don't know why Bellichek picked him up when he saw him first hand get burnt all the time. But he is solid at covering shorter passes.
 
Ezekiel Elliott won an injunction from a Texas court that prohibits the NFL from issuing a suspension against him while his lawsuit against the NFL for his suspension is in court. This could result in him being able to play for the entire season.

Story here.
 
#tommy 16-36 267yd 0 td 0 int Being 40 looks kinda old today.:lol:

I expect Brady to bounce back big time against the Saints next week, can't write him off after the first game of the season. Having said that, I don't think the cliff is too far away.

Legal hawk here:

ruling pg. 1
Based upon the preliminary injunction standard, the Court finds, that Elliott did not receive a fundamentally fair hearing, necessitating the Court grant the request for preliminary injunction.
 
I think Elliot should be hit in the balls with a bat repeatedly and Brady is a cheat but the NFL and Sheriff Little Bill Daggett routine is getting old.

 
Sundays mean something again! The regular season is underway, and now the first meaningful Sunday of action begins today and tonight. So enjoy the games and good luck to your favorite team(s)!
 
The jerseys must have been traded today in Houston, because we failed hard. Tom Savage reminded us of Brock Osweiler with his poor performance today. Injuries and poor play basically sunk the Texans today. Jacksonville came to Houston and won 29-7. The only big plus was Deshaun Watson scoring his first touchdown on a lovely pass play to Deandre Hopkins. That touchdown drive was helped by penalties by the Jaguars.

Remember- this is the NFL. Perfection isn't required. The season isn't over because you lose a game. Just make sure not to lose with regularity. As for the Texans' next opponent- a GTPlanet inner-forum rivalry for me. My Texans at Dolph Drago and Eva's Cincinnati Bengals this Thursday night. No rest for the weary.


Other than that, congratulations to all other winners this week.
 
A solid Bills win today. Team looks promising, though it's only week 1 and they only played the Jets.

We'll see if the same team shows up against the Panthers, Broncos, and Falcons in the next 3 weeks.
 
Andy Dalton was amazing today....at throwing to the Ravens.
I'm kinda glad I ended up having to go into work today. I missed the game because of it. Thank God.

Both our teams failed hard today. The Bungals couldn't even muster up a field goal. Both will be looking for redemption, but I have a feeling I know which team will show up, and it won't be the ones in the orange and black...it's the Cincy way.
 
Kenny Golladay could become a big asset for the Lions if he plays like he did today and can minimize the mistakes he made in his debut. He seems to have the right idea too by focusing on what he needs to improve on instead of what he truly did well in his post game interview. He won't be Megatron (nobody will truly replace Megatron), but he could become a viable Number 1 receiver in the future if he can continue to get better.
 
Fire Jerry Reece. We officially have the worst O-Line in the NFL, even worse than the Seahawks (no offense)! Our whole team is predicated on OBJ, it's absurd. All of those non-O-Line acquisitions are for not now, so disappointed.

Last night's game was terrible, I think even the Jets could've beaten the Giants. One of the worst offensive performances from them in a long time and all Dallas had to do was catch punts. Prescott was off on most of his throws and the fat-faced, salt smelling Dallas running back who is playing based on a Texas court technicality only had to fall forward 24 times to pick up 100 yards.

Beckham or not, Eli and the O-line need to wake up.

I don't know, Seattle's O-Line is god awful. I guess that's what happens when you pay your defense an insane amount of money and forget about the rest of the team.

I'm not sure what the Giant's issue is, they had no offense combined with no defense. I guess they have the same problem the Lions did a few years ago, rely on one wide out and when he doesn't play they can't score.
 
The defense actually wasn't that bad. They just couldn't get more than 13 seconds of rest before Eli threw three incompletions and then they had to go back out there.

Dallas has a terrible defense (aside from Lee when he isn't crippled) and no pass rush... Unless they are playing the Giants' practice team O-line.
 
The NFL is back! It's Monday Night, so let's do it like this...


Saints at Vikings and Chargers at Broncos... both TONIGHT!

The NFC and AFC are respectively in vogue tonight as the 2017 season of NFL football kicks off. First off is an NFC match at the home of Super Bowl 52. The NFC South's New Orleans Saints will head up to the NFC North's Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings say dey gon' beat dem' Saints. But will they? We'll find out tonight, won't we?

The AFC match tonight is an AFC West battle as the Denver Broncos will host the San Di... uh, Los Angeles Chargers. These are new starts for both of these long time franchises. As I read on the Yahoo! Sports app this morning, this is the first match involving two Black head coaches making their coaching debut for their teams.


Since I started making posts like these, someone wanted some betting into for when these Monday Night games. So I added these to my usual reports/hype for Monday Night Football. Here's the data to share for this Monday Night. Minnesota is favored by 3 at home against New Orleans, and Denver is favored by 3 at home against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Over/Under for the NO at MIN game is 48. The Over/Under for LAC at DEN is 42.5. Choose wisely and enjoy tonight's games!
 
Not an easy win for the Packers, but I guess I'll take it. Mike Daniels is good.

I had Wilson in one fantasy league as well, that went amazing... but the Rams defense gave me my points though.
 
Yesterday Our road to the Superbowl officially began. Lord Carr will guide us to the Promised Land, I can feel it. Once more, the League will be ruled by the Silver and Black :D

Our Defense is pretty stellar really, if you look at the time of possession of last nights game, our D was on the field for like 80% (or more?) and holding a team like Dallas to just 19 is a tremendous feat.
