2024 NFL Offseason and Draft Thread

Unreal. I don’t get what happened to buffalo and cincy. They just aren’t the same this year.

Buffalo was overrated last year too. Went down at home in the playoffs in a poor showing. 

[DegenerateDish]

Atrocious.

It’s possible Daboll punches one of his quarterbacks on the sideline this year.

[MU82]

Bad pass by Kelly, terrible FG decision by Sean McDermott.

He should punch the play caller.

[Jockey]

This was an insult to the game of football.

[MU82]

Ends with back judge choking on his flag.

[HutchwasClutch]

Bad pass by Kelly, terrible FG decision by Sean McDermott.

Absolutely horrible decision not to punt and pin them back with 1 timeout and needing a TD.  McDermott was incredibly fortunate

[DegenerateDish]

Both teams deserved to lose that game.

[cheebs09]

Ends with back judge choking on his flag.

I thought that was more of a foul than the one they called.

What's the point of having a $10 million running back if you don't trust him to get 1 yard and instead put the game on Tyrod Taylor?

[MU82]

Just 6 games (and 6 losses) into his tenure as the Panthers' coach, Reich hands off play-calling duties to Thomas Brown, the team's nominal OC and a former Rams assistant.

There is speculation that Tepper forced the change. If so, that doesn't bode well for Reich.

Yeah, I haven't followed the Giants at all, but I was kind of surprised they didn't give Barkley the ball there. It seemed to me that he'd been getting increasingly effective as the game progressed.

They gave it to him at the goal line at the end of the half. He was stopped cold.

Yeah, the Giants o-line has a guard at center, a tackle who was in his words “off the couch” and probably a guy or two who won’t be in the league next year.  And Waller is a “TE” in name only

The Rodgers hype machine is in full effect. Saying he could be ready by Week 12, but most likely Week 15. I’m not sure if the procedure he got was truly revolutionary or if he’s just trying to get in the news.

Rumors floating it was a partial tear, not a full tear.

Also, he is beside himself with all the attention Travis Kelce is getting.  Bad enough Kelce got the SNL hosting gig before ARodg, now his relationship is bigger than ARodg’s.  His ego is crushed

I’m a proud Rodgers shade thrower, but there is video of him walking around without a boot/crutches and throwing yesterday.  Obviously a long way to go, but it’s still over 2 months away.  The video makes it a bit more believable than if he was just chirping it on McAfee or some other writer was tweeting about his progress.

But also, it allowed him to get himself a couple days of frothy media cycle, which we know is a HUGE component of his recovery process.

The circumstances were pretty different, and getting stuffed on one run is no reason to stop running. The data shows the chances of success running from the one is higher than passing, and that's not factoring in the runner and the passer.
Heck, if you don't trust Barkley to get a yard, run a tush push. All the kids are doing it.

That’s true, it does sound like he’s a bit ahead. I’ve seen conflicting reports about how far the normal process is. Some aren’t surprised he’s walking under his own power. He wasn’t putting much weight on it.

It just seems kind of wild to talk about a 40 year old basically having an unheard recovery time on an Achilles. Unless this surgery is that revolutionary.

The only circumstance that was really different was that the defense was expecting a pass at the end of the half (an incompletion would have given the Giants another shot at a TD or a FG, the run ended the half) - and even with that the Giants and Barkley were stopped for no gain. Barkley is averaging less than 3 yards a carry this year and on the game’s final play the Bills had 11 guys on the line of scrimmage. But hindsight and 2nd guessing are fun.

[CreightonWarrior]

Richardson most likely done for the year. His style of play isn’t made for the nfl

Impossible. All we heard was how big and strong he is. And everyone knows big and strong football players do not have ligaments that can be torn, tendons that can be frayed, heads that can be concussed, disks that can be herniated, etc.

[DegenerateDish]

This has been a really odd game for the officials.
