NFL Discussion Thread: Pats win SB XLIX. Offseason begins

[champcruthik]

You mean Ravens. Yeah they gambled and somehow Joe had the miracle run. Good to get that trophy but out them in a tight spot moving forward


That said he will shred Pitt tonight

Only 466 pass yards in two games last year. 352 yards against Pittsburgh in two games the '12 season. Split both years.

 

[dmxfury]

He hasn't done Niner games in 5 years. Still does Cal Football every Saturday

Thanks jump, didn't realize he has been gone that long from SF radio. Some all time classic calls (both college and pro)

Pass D is reeeeeal shaky this year. Only thing that may slow it down is the run D is weak and Balt may stick with that

I do worry about the corner spot opposite Taylor. Who's manning it, Allen or Gay?

After rushing for 103 yards in Week 1, Arian Foster has 25 100-yard rush games since 2010.

That is the MOST in NFL.

Earl Thomas done returning punts for Seahawks http://bit.ly/1rNnJOE

dude was too reckless back there.

Damn, thought I had a steal in my IDP league since you get 6pts for TDs ... gonna have to look at some other options now

Not a chance in hell Goodell makes it through this mess. If it's not the FBI investigation, then the NFLPA will be coming for his head.

I think the bigger issue, more so than the FBI, is what the NFLPA is going to do

The same NFLPA that allowed Roger to be on his sheriff **** since he came in while players routinely speak out against him?

The same NFLPA that hasn't been able to get him removed as judge/jury/executioner...even AFTER negotiating a new CBA? (which they clearly lost, btw)

The same union that can't get its players...in the highest grossing league...guaranteed contracts? 

Their biggest win in Roger's tenure was getting the previous commissioner to step in and overrule him on Bountygate. Think about that. 

Roger Goodell ain't worrying about the NFLPA bro. 

 

[TipsyMcStagga]

NFLPA said they aren't commenting because they haven't been formally sent any paperwork pertaining to Rice's indefinite suspension.

Still the weakest union in professional sports though...

what an insane year and a half for the NFL . first Hernandez , now this mess

Colin Cowherd's opening rant today was great . hopefully they'll upload it on ESPN radio

Ike isn't who he was. He can still play but he gets burnt more often than not now. Allen can play, but he lacks the big plays he was making when the Steelers decided to keep him over Keenan Allen, which doesn't look like the best option in hindsight. And Willie Gay is Willie Gay, he has is ups and downs.

Don't get me wrong, these guys are good for the scheme, they play well together. But they lack a "shutdown" guy, and they don't generate turnovers.

^ Agreed.

Dude is not going anywhere. He's the owners' pet and continues to make them an obscene amount of money.....which is all any of them care about. I don't see him leaving barring more catastrophic things coming out.

This latest "scandal" shall pass just like every other one does. And why? Because the next scandal America needs to scream about will come probably next week.

Keenan Lewis? Mistake, put blankets on D-Jax in last year's playoffs. Clamps Lewis.

Yea Lewis . Always gets them mixed up.

I met Clowney at a local grocery store last night. He was as stiff as cardboard, must have been why he got injured.

After reading about his background, it's no wonder he's bat **** crazy....

One of the best backs in the league when he's actually on the field.

Well, we'll see just how much armor he has on in the upcoming weeks. I think the NFLPA will have something based off of the fact that suspensions can be reneged only to be upped right after. That's got to have A LOT of players worried...especially, since as you said, Roger is the judge/jury/executioner.

*Back to CT for a second...funniest **** was him carrying that dude on his back in one of those challenges. Dude was TOO focused
