Bartimaeus Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) An early win at your division's reigning champion's home is always a great win, no matter how ugly it may be. We had 19 pressures in that game - a little over double the 9 pressures we had vs. them in two games last year. Those defensive FAs we signed are paying dividends.

Bartimaeus Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) At this point, he should get into the Hall of Fame for clearly being legendary at keeping all this nonsense under wraps. Just cut from the Raiders, I hope only bad teams are willing to offer him anything, and that it's not even close to what the Raiders gave him.

Keyrock Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 On the one hand, Belichick will make this work, because he always makes it work, and lord knows the Pats don't need any help to win their perpetually horrible division and return to the Superbowl. On the other hand, I'm glad Antonio Brown is off the market so that Uncle Jerry doesn't get any bright ideas. We have enough troublemakers on our team as it is.

Keyrock Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Eli was fine. The problem for the Giants was Dak TORCHING their secondary.

Mannock Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 So after the Packers upset the Bears last week I felt full of confidence and thought the Vikings at home would be a breeze. Then I saw the Vikings manhandle the Falcons and now I'm all nervous again and feel like a loss is coming our way. The defence looked good of course but Rodgers and the rest of the offence were really bad, and the Viking's defence will be at par with the Bears. I'll do it, for a turnip.

Bartimaeus Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I'm not feeling great about it, either - thankful it's at home and that we probably won't be snapping the ball with 0 on the playclock every snap like we were against the Bears (which is quite often disastrous for our offensive line play because the defense knows when the snap is and seems to get them into a wrecking rhythm). Really wish that little "facet" of our offense from years past had been solved. 1 Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.

End of story. guilty o' what? whose standard o' guilt? you gonna leave up to the courts to decide for you? and keep in mind is civil litigation, which means is not guilt which the court would be assigning. am already knowing vol won't care what the nfl decides. legitimacy o' ab preserved messages to the plaintiff don't appear to be a matter o' controversy, which in our mind makes ab, at the very least, guilty o' crimes 'gainst the english language. moreover, am not able to think o' any situation or circumstances when such words would be appropriate. foul. vulgar. crude. vile. if had been Gromnir who sent messages, would we be able to explain self to our grandparents why such messages were anything other than damning? am not sure what is the true north for vol's moral compass, but whenever am unsure, we call up the ghosts o' our grandparents and ask 'em... metaphorical 'course, am not complete loony. grandma would weep. vol is not gonna suggest the plaintiff were possible "asking for it"? 'course not. hope not. and even if the plaintiff were a world class grifter and liar, it wouldn't change what the messages says 'bout ab. unless is proof ab messages is fake, then am o' the opinion ab is already guilty o' being a world-class dirtbag. answering in the affirmative the accusations central to civil suit itself would only have the possible result o' magnifying and cementing such conclusions. answers to questions o' guilt and innocence is rare ending concerns 'bout right and wrong.

Bartimaeus Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) Packers also 2-0 after two ugly wins. Any kind of win > any kind of loss (...outside of pyrrhic victories, I guess), but that 21-0 start made me think we were gonna blow the Vikings out.

Keyrock Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I'm trying hard to not get too excited about Dak's hot start. He looked spectacular in the first 2 games this season, but I have to remind myself that we played against a couple division 2 college teams. The Saints game in week 4 will be the first real test. In other news, is it too early to start talking 0-16 for the Fins? Usually teams don't make it THIS obvious that they're tanking.
