Seattle also has a TNF game but that one's in Arizona so it'll probably just be another 5-3 slog

I cant wait! Yall get too caught up in the purity test of nice clean wins. With the refs being as inconsistent as ever and OPI hardly ever called ill take any W that ends on the hawks winning via hawks bullshit.

I of course will be righteously indignant if the hawks lose on a similar type call. But such is the fickle nature of sports.

I can't believe Atlanta has 2 fuckin' MNF games scheduled, and neither one is a home game.

Yeah, with the new stadium you would have thought they got 1, but oh well. We have 5 primetime games apparently, how many are home?

I noticed we'll be treated to a 3rd annual Bills-Jets Thursday night game. The NFL does a lot of terrible things, but quarantining a Jets-Bills game is probably a good decision.

Cant speak for other Seahawks fans but i wont pretend that it didnt happen but i will actively not care that it happened. At the end of the season all that matters is that W-L and if the last W we need to get in the playoffs happened due to a flagrant missed call then \_(ツ)_/ in two years we'll only remember what happened via media highlights added to build drama.

What i do care about though is rapist and abusers on the team i root for. Get the gently caress out parrish cox and frank clark.

(looking forward to people letting me know who else is a lovely person on my team)

Pretty pissed about the schedule makers counting the London games as a prime-time game for the have-nots like the Browns, but other teams get to play in London and in PT. I am sick of the 10% (Dallas, GB, and NE) having 90% of the nationally televised games!

Actually I don't care, I am glad all but one Browns 'game' will be over by 4:30.

Homerist kayfabe aside that's pretty much where I'm at. You get hosed, the other guy gets hosed, never feels much better when you lose or worse when you win. You guys were the better team last year, made sense that you made the Super Bowl. Curious to see if you can sustain that crazy offense.

Oh, er, sorry. *cough* Julio hit Sherman first! You can't prove anything!

Yeah, I mean it is what it is. If Julio doesn't cause the tip interception the drive before it would never have been a thing anyway. If Shanahan would have run the ball...where have I seen this before hrmmm?

Refs miss calls, I get it. All I am saying is embrace the bullshit! If Alford got away with half the poo poo Sherman did, I would be happy but he gets flagged for every.thing.

As for being able to sustain, I *think* we can, but the Superbowl Hangover + losing Shanahan I just don't know. I think Quinn has built something pretty special, and they all seem to buy in. They didn't lose much over the offseason, gained Poe, getting Trufant, Clayborn, Shelby, etc. back paired with another (hopefully) DQ beefed up draft class I just don't see a huge regression but it also wouldn't super surprise me.

Are the Texans really going forward with Tom Savage? What was the point of wasting a second rounder if you're not going to make any other moves to fix QB? They should have just left Brock on the bench.

I guess what I'm saying is they should trade their 1st for Jimmy G.

Aaron Hernandez once threatened to kill Ian Rappoport.

Ian Rappoport posted:

Yeah, there is one that I think about a lot. I would end up hanging around by [Aaron Hernandez's] locker a lot. He would do his interviews and we would chat. There weren’t a lot of guys that were just hanging out in the locker room, especially during those years, so we would hang out and we would talk. When we first exchanged numbers, he called me over and said, “Hey I just want you to know, you’re my guy. If you need anything let me know, I will help you out if I can. But I just want you to know, if you f— me over, I’ll kill you.” I sort of laughed a little bit, and I said, “Don’t worry, I got you, I’ll take care of you.”
