[Number-25]

First topic message reminder :

Well played San Diego

That was a fine performance

Made Seattle look ordinary

[Number-25]

Yep, how bad is Kirk Cousins?

Colt McCoy is in..... 'nuf said.

[GSC]

This could be a real killer for the Bears.

[NYJ]

5/4 on the saints coming off the bye against Detroit without Megatron was to good to turn down

I'm in on the Lions this week. That defense is ballin' and they are up against a poor Saints defense so should be putting up enough points even without Megatron.

[mikeygnfl]

Cousins benched

It's colt McCoy time babay

It can't be long before it's Johnny Football time. I didn't think there was too much between Hoyer and Manziel in preseason and don't think the Browns would have been any worse off had Manziel started. He definitely has more upside than Hoyer.

Detroit always chokes in these sort of games (he says with some trepidation)

[adams_legend]

Looks like the Rams are going to throw another lead away

I call bull on this one.

Hoyer's been playing good efficient football, and pushing the ball down the field before this week. Theres nothing to suggest Manziel is remotely ready.

[GSC]

The Bengals look absolutely awful. Nothing down the field without AJ Green

I can only go on their preseason games and I saw nothing between Hoyer and Manziel  in performance. There's nothing to suggest Manziel isn't ready.

[mikeygnfl]

Good win for the Dolphins who look even better with the Packers thrashing the Panthers too.

[crazy_dave23]

What a gutsy call by the Rams... figured Wilson was just going to get it and walk it down to take the win but... FAKE PUNT inside your own 10!

[GSC]

Classic Fisher with some ST trickery today.

The first TD came from the Bears a few years ago mind. Theirs was called back for holding

[adams_legend]

Rams making me age about 20 years in that fourth quarter

[GSC]

The Rams stun the Seahawks, who are finding out quickly the Champs have a bullseye on their back. The power players in the NFC are the Cards, Eagles and Cowboys coming up to halfway. Who saw that coming.

Cleveland isn't ready to be a winner. Saw Detroit do this a few years ago.

Will this be Kirk Cousins first win of the season as starter?

[GSC]

Season on the line, Drew Brees has 1.48 to salvage a win against the best ranked D

[crazy_dave23]

Will this be Kirk Cousins first win of the season as starter?

Yeah but he ain't on the field... start the #ColtforQB campaign

[GSC]

Sammy Watkins with 1 second left gives the Bills a lead

[crazy_dave23]

TD Buffalo...

[GSC]

Will this be Kirk Cousins first win of the season as starter?

Yeah but he ain't on the field... start the #ColtforQB campaign

RG3 also has 1 win...when Kirk replaced him

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Screw you new oOrleans

Everything I've seen from Manziel suggests he isn't ready. Hoyer really stepped up his play in the regular season and has earned himself a couple of bad games.

[NYJ]

Screw you new oOrleans

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Knew I shouldn't have posted about it lol

[GSC]

At 2-4, the Saints are a game and a half out of first.

The AFC South is absolutely terrible

[crazy_dave23]

Knew I shouldn't have posted about it lol

Yeah following on from mikey's (?) 3 Florida wins bet when everyone one of them lost... maybe post the opposite of what you bet

[Lowlandbrit]

RG3 also has 1 win...when Kirk replaced him

So who replaces McCoy to get him his win?

[GSC]

No NFC South team has a winning record, every one is on an active losing streak and all have a negative points differential

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Jerome boger and his crew are the worst in the league by some way

[GSC]

Romo throws a Romo as the Giants are already more competitive than a week ago

[mikeygnfl]

Season on the line, Drew Brees has 1.48 to salvage a win against the best ranked D

The Buccaneers are only 2.5 games behind the Panthers and one game behind the Saints and Falcons. I don't think two teams are coming out of this division this year.

[mikeygnfl]

DeMarco Murray becomes the first player in NFL history to run over 100 yards in each of the first seven games of the season.

[CJB]

How do you rank the wide receivers in the league

Megatron
AJ Green
Dez Bryant
Antonio Brown
Josh Gordon
Jordy Nelson
Julio Jones

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Why did San Diego use a timeout icing the kicker when they need it for this potential drive

[mikeygnfl]

Glad I started Odell Beckham Jr in place of the injured Megatron in the west league.

[Lowlandbrit]

Why did San Diego use a timeout icing the kicker when they need it for this potential drive

Because everyone knows icing the kicker works 110% of the time. And if he'd missed they'd only have needed a field goal to win, which is obviously a lot easier to get in position for.

[Guest]

Another loss there en route to our 0-16 season.

Only positives being a Raider at the minute. #1 draft pick on its way, at least all these so called 'experienced' players wont be crippling the salary cap for years like they would have been under Al Davis

Our third down defense is woeful, offense was bullied today.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Least Carr looks decent

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

The broncos get away with so many things others get called for on offence its unreal.

[GSC]

Peyton Manning #GOAT

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Joe Montana > all

[GSC]

You never watched him play

[Number-25]

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000413767/article/richard-sherman-says-he-recovered-fumble-vs-rams

You mad 'Bro?

Yep!

So happy.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Dont bring technicalities into this

[Guest]

Least Carr looks decent

aye, can't grumble about him. He's getting decent protection, yesterday aside were we crumbled a bit, but he could use a hand from a terrible running game, and there are a few catachable balls being dropped. Just hope these losses don't break his confidence

In a weird way the losses aren't the worst thing ever, gives you a higher draft pick to build a team around him and means you won't appoint Tony sparano

You do have some decent young players tbf, sio Moore is quality

[BamBam]

How do you rank the wide receivers in the league

Megatron
AJ Green
Dez Bryant
Antonio Brown
Josh Gordon
Jordy Nelson
Julio Jones

If all fit and healthy:

Megatron

Dez, Demaryius, Julio, Green - Probably in that order, but really splitting hairs here

Gordon, Nelson, Brown - Gordon with another season like his last would move up to the next tier, but unlikely. I feel like I am underrating Jordy a bit here, and Brown lacks the red zone capability that I like in receivers

I guess the question is, if the Raiders are in position to draft a Winston or Mariota, do they do that or stick with Carr?

[GSC]

Tier 1
Megatron

Tier 2
Green, Dez, Julio

Tier 3
Jordy, Brown, Demaryius, Gordon, Johnson

That depends on how Carr does rest of the season but so far he's shown he's got the potential to be a good starting nfl qb

[GSC]

They have a young QB playing well, they won't be taking a QB high
