2018 NFL Game Thread - Week 9

[Van Everyman]

I absolutely go for it here.

 

[Cellar-Door]

I absolutely go for it here.

why?
Only way you lose this game is if you don't make it here. Rams kick the 58 yarder without losing any time, try the onside and recover. If you punt there isn't enough time to score twice.

 

[johnmd20]

You need a yard, Kamara will get it. He's awesome, Ingram isn't half the player Kamara is.

 

[TheoShmeo]

Tough couple of Sundays for LA fans. Both of them.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Tough couple of Sundays for LA fans. Both of them.

Last Sunday was spectacular for me. Saw the Rams beat the Pack at the Coliseum, then Ubered to Dodger Stadium for the Sox clincher.

 

[theapportioner]

Seattle's loss today is huge - Rams still have a decent cushion with some tough games still to come.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

I still kinda go back to that shit call on the fake FG. maybe Rams don't get down so much and edge it out.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

This may sound bitter as a Rams fan, but this game makes me less scared of the Saints in a playoff game, not more.

They can absolutely be had, even in their own place.

I think this is a fair take, hard to imagine the Rams wouldn't come back with a better defensive gameplan than today

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Thomas doing the Joe Horn flip phone celly-bration was classic. Hilarious that Buck and Aikman were clueless.

 

[Freddy Linn]

Witten’s new hair is ridiculous.

 

[eustis22]

I miss Dion.

 

[Greg29fan]

Trading a first round pick for a receiver your QB can't get the ball to is a big issue.

 

[eustis22]

not in dallas

 

[eustis22]

awful pocket awareness by mariota

 

[shawnrbu]

First touchdown with a star on his helmet.

 

[TheoShmeo]

Butler gets beat on a TD and then Lewis fumbles.

BB nods.

 

[shawnrbu]

Terrible decision by Dak.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Great pick.

And wtf is Dak doing there?

 

[eustis22]

just did the TO Lone Star Diss

 

[BigSoxFan]

That might have been the worst throw I’ve ever seen

 

[eustis22]

dick in a box

 

[normstalls]

This one came to a screeching halt

 

[Greg29fan]

That challenge was worse than that Dak pass to Cooper

 

[eustis22]

this is the first time i've watched the tits...do they not pass to dion????

 

[Mystic Merlin]

ON.

MONDAY.

NIGHT.

FOOTBALL.

Tessitore really is a robot.

 

[SMU_Sox]

My partner just did a bropersonation of that. Get your testosterone here!

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Why is Vrabel constantly staring directly into the ground? Odd look.

 

[E5 Yaz]

That might have been the worst throw I’ve ever seen

Non Nathan Peterman Division

 

[eustis22]

derrick henry has a snapping turtle under his helmet

 

[Harry Hooper]

TO was called before the snap. If the QB gets bonked on the head on that non-play, is there a penalty on the D?

 

[E5 Yaz]

That Dion Lewis guy is pretty good

 

[Mystic Merlin]

TO was called before the snap. If the QB gets bonked on the head on that non-play, is there a penalty on the D?

Only if they decided it was a dead ball personal foul since any live ball penalties cannot be called and roughing the passer is a live ball penalty.

 

[shawnrbu]

Butler destroyed. Why is he still playing?

 

[TFisNEXT]

Wow butler got torched for the TD on that.

 

[bigsid05]

Malcolm Butler absolutely roasted.

 

[Harry Hooper]

O, Malcolm

 

[kartvelo]

Butler nicely roasted.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Only if they decided it was a dead ball personal foul since any live ball penalties cannot be called and roughing the passer is a live ball penalty.

You don't see a non-play go as far as that one did very often.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Has there been a faster meteoric rise and subsequent fall than Malcom Butler?

I'm sure there has been...but it seems so quick even if it was 3+ years round trip.

 

[SMU_Sox]

Butler continuing to struggle doesn’t surprise me but it is disappointing. I wish I could explain what happened.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Has there been a faster meteoric rise and subsequent fall than Malcom Butler?

On a much smaller scale, but Jonas Gray?


Not a bad game tonight for the viewing audience.

 

[Gash Prex]

I'm sure there has been...but it seems so quick even if it was 3+ years round trip.

David Givens? Not quite the play that Malcom made in the Super Bowl but similar overpay by the titans

 

[E5 Yaz]

On a much smaller scale, but Jonas Gray?

Timmy Smith

 

[ShaneTrot]

Butler continuing to struggle doesn’t surprise me but it is disappointing. I wish I could explain what happened.

It is very strange, he was good in 2015 and 2016. He had problems with Antonio Brown but what corner doesn't.

 

[Harry Hooper]

What's the over/under on the number of fathead reproductions of that SI cover Jonas has in his home?

 

[BigSoxFan]

Breaking news:

Sean Lee is hurt

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Butler on Dorsett next week? He’s been that bad.

 

[Greg29fan]

If Lee was a horse they'd have put him down already

 

[shoosh77]

Also breaking news, this crew is like listening to 3 8 year olds break down the game. Your saying the same thing in triplicate that I just watched with my own eyes. Give me some insight.
