Well yeah if your superstars get hurt then it’s a shitshow. That’s not new. The Pats currently have tons of depth at WR. They can afford to lose any of them and not miss a beat. But the beat sucks.

NFL.com sucks so incredibly much. One of the Twitter links below this shows someone trying to watch a game and instead being brought to the "upgrade your plan" screen.

gently caress I just tried to renew and it won't let me put in my credit card info after multiple tries. The settings menu takes me to the screen for managing accounts. How do they gently caress it up even worse every year? This is like a performance art piece.

I blame either his decision making or Reid making the playcalls for that second half debacle. It shouldn’t have been that bad regardless of the Bengals defensive adjustments.

there's a difference between "having depth at WR" and "having a bunch of bad WRs"

The Saints have had had between zero and one main guys for the last couple of years.

But Brees in his prime probably could have still made them look alright. Unfortunately they had Brees with his broken old man body and then a string of bad QBs throwing to a bunch of scrubs and occasionally Michael Thomas.

Brees definitely had an art of making mid guys look good like Lance Moore and Willie Snead.

Carman outright raped a 15 year old when he was 18, right? And their decision to go forward with him was to draft him I guess.

He's 86 years old. He only ever does one public speaking event a year and it's this thing. They've talked about basically retiring him from this and having Katie do it for years, and they probably should have, huh?


He would have thought this poo poo probably the entirety of his tenure with the team, but he used to be a lot more diplomatic. He's always explained it as being pro "second chances" although, funnily enough, He's never done anything to apply that philosophy to people who aren't football players he wants on the team.

Can someone who is smarter than me figure out what NFL+ is going on about? The way I read it, you have access to every NFL game live which is a insane deal for their introductory price of 30 dollars for the year!

However, they keep emphasizing YOU CAN ONLY WATCH IT ON YOUR PHONE/TABLET. I read this as they won't release a Roku App or a Apple TV app. But, as far as I'm aware I've never seen an app disable the ability to say, on your iphone, mirror the video playback to the TV. Is that even possible to disable from an app level? In any event, this NFL+ thing does seem like an insanely good deal given how much historically a thing like NFL Sunday Ticket costs or if you compare it to like, NBA League pass or something like that.

It's amazing how little draft coverage talks about this stuff. Unless it's a famous case of like hazing or something I never hear negative things about prospects from any website.

I think Directv said gently caress it and gave everyone NFL Sunday Ticket free this year. Probably trying to get as many people to stay after they lose it next year. I don't think I've paid for it in 5 years or so.

So much black, the best of the black options for what they are is probably the Saints (?) but I don't hate the Jets either. But not hating them is as far as I can go. The rest of the black ones can kick rocks imo. What are the Commies even doing?

I actually like the Bengals one and the Falcons throwback. Weren't we supposed to get creamsicle Bucs back? Or is that at some point in the future?

Creamsicle Bucs are gonna be next season, and I think Kelly Green Eagles as well. They said something about supply issues not making them able to do so this year, which I suspect has more to do with being able to sell the jerseys to fans than anything else (Most of them stuff shown in the picture for this year were already in use in previous seasons, they’re just adding new helmets).

The 4 throwbacks are all fantastic. The alts are a mixed bag for sure.

This definitely seems to be the issue with the Bucs from what I've read.
