2021-2022 NFL Season

Seems kinda pointless to flag Buddah Baker when he's being taken away in an ambulance, aina?

In this instance, I was referring to Akers

I don't think I've ever seen a ballcarrier get flagged for that

Cardinals fell apart down the stretch after a good start to the season.

Since getting crushed by the pathetic Panthers on Nov. 14, the Cardinals are 3-5, and about to be 3-6. Also lost to Detroit and Seattle in that stretch.

It is rare, but it has been called. Probably should have been called there.

It's a rule on the books. Allegedly, NFL told officials not to call it though

I just don’t know if I could pay Kyler Murray a gigantic contract in 2 years. I’m sure they’ll pick up the fifth year option, then maybe franchise him in 2024, but man I’d have a really hard time committing mega dollars to him.

I personally liked the 4th and 9 on their last true possession when Murray didn’t even try and sailed a ball 10 feet over his WR’s head out of bounds in an “aww F it” throw.

Beyond getting bumrushed, the game was over at the end of the first half. Down 21, the Cards push the Rams back on 2nd down and force 3rd and a long 5 with 1:30 left.  Kliff has all his time outs…which he eats and lets the Rams chew up another minute, fail on 3rd and then punt with minimal time that the Cards just pffttt on.  Talk about white flag early on

Agree.

Also agree about Kingsbury. I didn't get the hire when it happened, and I don't get what ownership has seen in him till now.

Hard to believe the Cardinals lost given JJ Watt’s incredible hard work and leadership

Watt brothers went 0-3 this weekend (we can count the Steelers loss twice, right?).
Loser family.

Sounds like the Cardinals need to go to JJ's super remote bare bones rustic cottage to workout in the offseason...among the other multi million dollar lake homes less than 30 min from Milwaukee

Fook 'em...He coulda signed wit da Pack as a free agent, if he wanted ta win, hey?

Not many people know this but the Watt brothers all crap the American flag that’s how hard they work

The obsession w/ JJ Watt has been weird for years. He was a field-tilting force. Then age and injury caught up to him. By the end of his tenure in Houston he was just a guy, replacement level at best. He wasn't trash, but he was the epitome of an injury risk fading star. That was exactly what Arizona signed, and that's exactly what they got.

He seems like a decent guy. I think he did a lot of good charitable work in Houston. He's probably one of the Good Guys(tm), but why anyone cares--even to revel in his team's loss--is beyond me.

Because it’s great

The gripe was never with JJ Watt the player.  He was an absolute monster who at his peak, is easily a top 5 defensive player of the last decade.

JJ Watt the brand is insufferable.  His actual story alone is plenty good enough.  Lightly recruited as a TE, transfers to UW as a walkon TE and becomes a 1st team AA and top 15 pick.  Thats incredible.  But JJ NEEEEDS everyone to know what a scrappy underdog he was and how HARD he works.  His entire performance on Hard Knocks was cringey and embarrassing.  The puff piece on, I think ESPN, I referenced actually portrayed his lake house in Pewaukee as a remote getaway where he can focus on JJ.

I do think he's actually a good dude.  But nobody loves JJ more than JJ and his PR is the first one to let you know.  He does a lot of charitable work which is extremely commendable but I think its physically impossible for him to move in silence and without self generate accolades or fanfare.

Agree that he's done a lot for charity, but everyone knows when Watt does something for a charity.   Rubs a lot of people the wrong way.

Plus, he's a badger, regardless of his bootstrap story.

Has he gotten past page 1 in any books he reads, though?

[jficke13]

I do recall everyone in the national media talking about the cabin thing like he'd gone to the Yukon to train. Everyone around here recognized where he was and laughted at the fact that he was like 30 mins from downtown Milwaukee.

Yeah, I guess I get that the JJW brand is insufferable, but at this point in his career (and for like the last 3 years or so), he's been irrelevant on the field. People ought to pay him a commensurate amount of attention.
