American Football Thread (NFL, NCAA)

I have been a Ravens fan for a long long time so I'm not going to blame individuals as I think it comes down 2 units really to an offensive unit and a D (Which is playing well), however they are being put under too much pressure and it shows late in games when they are very susceptible to big plays.

(As I'm typing this the team comes up with a huge play from the rookie Brown)

One thing I would say is that they are missing Pitta and Mellette who looked even better than Brown.

 

I love Dennis Pitta, one of my favourite players. Got a pair of the safest hands in the league.

Terrell Suggs has said some hilarious things about him.

“The white tight end. He’s American Express. He’s everywhere you want him to be. Don’t leave home without him.”

 

What does Nick Foles think he is doing? Surely he isn't going to break the passing TD record?

 

Great play by Flacco and Brown, TD and 2 point Conversion.

 

Seahawks lucky to get the win.

 

The Pats are back (although they were never really away)

Ridley and Dobson are beasts. When Vereen/Armstead/Talib Island get back we are going to be incredible.

 

The Ravens are bad cause they gave Flacco a massive contract and * their cap. Flacco is a good QB, nothing more and you can't give him the same money you'd give Rodgers, Manning, Brady or Brees.

 

Boldin, Pitta, Jones and Smith made him look a lot better than he was last year.

 

Yeah. He had a great post season but it was mainly down to awful D by the other teams, (Bailey got torched, Talib was injured for the Pats) how good his receivers were at getting separation, his cannon arm and a bit of luck.

Anyway, the Colts can't cover receivers

 

Tommy Kelly on IR, that's Pats two starting DT's on IR, along with starting linebacker and safety. Back up safety also injured now, along with Nink the DE. Plus Armstead the FA pick up at DT hasn't even played yet.

 

Texans HC Gary Kubiak just collapsed on the sideline, being carted off now and looks pretty serious. Hope he's ok

 

Especially a coach, very worrying.

Andre Johnson having a huge night.

 

Flacco's contract has nothing to do with the Ravens struggling, his cap number is lower this year than it was last year. There's a whole bunch of reasons why we're playing like * but Flacco's contract is not one of them.

 

I guess there is NO quarterback controversy in Deebo. The Vick era is NOW officially over....:bbpd:

 

I think/hope that this was a freak one off!

 

Story of our season. Poor play calling once again from the coaches put the Cowboys in a position to get the W!

RESIGN NOW FRAZIER AND YOUR CRONIES....

 

why in the * * can't we just go one game without a * injury, we've nearly lost our whole reciever core and might of lost rodgers yesterday to injuries and just to top it off we lost to the * bears, who will go around acting like superbowl champs now, after 1 win

So yeah, I have Brady and Brees, anyone need a QB!?
