2024-25 NFL Thread

[MU82]

I freely admit my attitude toward the Lions is similar to many scoop posters attitude toward MU.

An attitude among Scoopers that you often criticize (even though they could counter that MU "hasn't achieved anything").

But thanks for admitting it ... and Go Lions!

Turns out you won't let Tower have the last word on his Lions 

[tower912]

I recognize the inconsistency.

I get there are times when you want to do that, but it was way too early in the game. It was the first play in the second half.

Was this not a situation where the timeout was a fair risk for possibility of eliminating that play? I didn't see the game, so genuinely asking.

I'm assuming it's your "at best" scenario. If it's your "at worst" scenario then yes it's definitely very dumb.

Flus is 2-8 all time and 0-4 this year on challenges. Seems he and his staff don't grasp how to use challenges. This will hurt him if he hopes to be an NFL head coach.

I did. And then the discussion evolved with Wags getting involved.

Also, not only is tower my friend, but he's a grown man who doesn't need daddy speaking on his behalf.

But thanks, and happy early Thanksgiving!

The Bears have come to a tentative property tax agreement with Arlington Heights and the school districts.

It was always going to be Arlington Heights. Warren's posturing just set back the construction a couple years.

That agreement should have been negotiated before the Bears made the purchase, but per usual, the McCaskey's (and Warren) Bears'ed the project.

Vikes got their QB

Superbowl or Bust

[WhiteTrash]

Jones, like Fields, looks like a terrific #2.

Got it. Then yeah, I'd agree. Sounds dumb.

Interesting challenge.

[MuggsyB]

WTF is Eberflus doing?  Why?  Idiotic challenge as usual. 

[JWags85]

The Flus being clueless with challenges narrative is still evergreen.  My god he's a dunce.  That was a blatant incomplete pass

[Dish]

Eberflus is 0-5 on challenges. Only head coach in the NFL without a successful challenge.

Absolutely pathetic  Do we know what his overall percentage is as a head coach?  Totally inexcusable.

[forgetful]

Unpopular take, but I'm beginning to think that the Bear's just might not be a very good franchise.

No, but they be good at collaboratin'.

[Jockey]

MVP trophy is Goff's to lose.

[Uncle Rico]

Can see why Tower is worried about the Lions defense

[Jockey]

Breaking news!!!!

Bears' offense to pop in 2nd half.

Buckle your seatbelts, fellow scoopers.

[forgetful]

Williams is lucky that his cleats didn't stick on that hit. Could have been a career ender.

Really dumb. Just go out of bounds.

100% correct.  That's why you run out of bounds.  Perhaps this will be a wake up call that he will permanently injured if he tries to be a rb.  Great td throw though.

[MuggsyB]

Heck of a half for Williams and the Bears.  That punt hurt though.
