Week 3 NFL Game Thread

[mikeford]

Randy Moss getting mad love this weekend

 

[Ed Hillel]

Step up. UP.

 

[Ed Hillel]

What a catch.

 

[bigsid05]

Megatron is a beast.

 

[LuckyBen]

Are they really checking speed on players now? Antonio brown ran 20 mph

 

[Freddy Linn]

According to Sports Science, Calvin Johnson can catch anything within a two-car garage door radius from a standing still position.
 
Edit: not vertically...

 

[Van Everyman]

What in the shit was that play call?

 

[Ed Hillel]

The fuck?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Their OL is having all kinds of problems.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Run the ball.

 

[mikeford]

Detroit still probably wont score

 

[Corsi]

Jason La Canfora ‏@JasonLaCanfora  now
MRI on Ben Roethlisberger confirms an MCL sprain. No damage to ACL. Expected to make a 4-week recovery

 

[mikeford]

[Ed Hillel]

LOL

 

[Mystic Merlin]

How the fuck does that happen.
 
Their protections are DOGSHIT.  

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

Lions will lose by 1

 

[brandonchristensen]

Interesting, never knew that new rule.

Steelers fans are probably pissed at Brady.
 
"He was supposed to miss 4 games, not BIG BEN"

Why do good things happen to terrible people?

If there's one major injury I wouldn't shed a tear for, it's Ben. Scumbag with a fanbase who openly celebrated Brady's ACL tear.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Ebron is fucking terrible.  How the FUCK do you play him as your protector?

 

[ifmanis5]

Peyton is taking more hard shots so far this year.

 

[Van Everyman]

If there's one major injury I wouldn't shed a tear for, it's Ben. Scumbag with a fanbase who openly celebrated Brady's ACL tear.

How does a fanbase "openly celebrate" an injury? Did they hold parades waving a severed leg?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Detroit is not good at tackling.
 
I'm surprised Kubiak is letting Manning do this.

 

[rodderick]

How does a fanbase "openly celebrate" an injury? Did they hold parades waving a severed leg?

They made and sold "Bernard Pollard fanclub" shirts, so yeah, that's as close as you can get.

 

[rembrat]

Pick 6 incoming.

 

[mikeford]

Detroit is not good.

Simplified the equation.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Belichick is going to have a field day with Manning this year.

 

[ifmanis5]

Great defense, Lions.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Lions = ass

 

[Ed Hillel]

LOL that was so obvious and they left him one on one.

 

[rodderick]

Are you fucking kidding me. The Lions are trash.

 

[brandonchristensen]

You're kidding me.

 

[OCST]

LOLions

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

Ladies & Gentleman - The Detroit Lions!!!

 

[mikeford]

The Lions should be relegated or sent to Canada or something.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Flag eh?

 

[Mugsy's Walk-Off Bunt]

Wow. That's seriously unforgivable. Holy crap. What must it be like to be a Lions fan?

 

[rembrat]

Big Play, indeed.

 

[rodderick]

Are they going to pretend that punt shows Manning has any arm strength now?

 

[brandonchristensen]

Nothing important.
 
Peyton JUST WINS.

 

[Ed Hillel]

You need at least one safety back there, what the hell were they doing?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

As if that was some kind of exemplary throw.  Slay somehow almost undercut it.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

1.) Dumb rule.
 
2.) Good to know the refs know what's going on.

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

Wow. That's seriously unforgivable. Holy crap. What must it be like to be a Lions fan?

Some of us know what it is like. I've been a Patriots fan since Joe Kapp.

So those years before the excellent Grogan teams and then Rod Rust etc. We know

 

[Silverdude2167]

Thomas had his man beat by two steps but had to stop running to make the catch, but yes that throw shows that Mannings arm is fine.

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

He's back but then Cris mumbles I don't ever think he went anywhere

This is the lead analyst for NBC.

 

[Freddy Linn]

"Fuck it, I'm going medium depth."

-Peyton Manning

 

[Rook05]

The all out blitz in that situation is unforgivable. Literally any other call would result in zero or--at worst--three points. The Lionz are fucking stupid.
