death tribble Posted October 29, 2017 Report Share Posted October 29, 2017 Cleveland are ahead 6-0 in London against the Vikings. 13-12 to Cleveland at half time. How do both kickers miss extra points ? Minnesota win 33-16. The Browns fought hard but penalties did for them. Sorry Cygnia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Well, I do think DPIs should be college rules of 15 yds in general rather than spot of foul, call it my "Michael Irvin Rule". Refs are much to inclined to give the benefit of the doubt to the doubt to WRs even if it is fairly obvious the initiated contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted October 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Surgeons reportedly trying to save Zach Miller's leg after gruesome knee injury I wish I could unsee that clip.

Old Man Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Yeah, I watched the clip too. The first couple angles were like "well, that doesn't look too bad", and then they showed another angle and I was like "Oh! Oh, god, that does look too bad."

Badger Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Surgeons reportedly trying to save Zach Miller's leg after gruesome knee injury I wish I could unsee that clip. Nobody should ever have to deal with an injury like that. I think I put a link to an old article about it in the NBA thread (in reference to Gordon Hayward). But, a minor league baseball game in the 1990s (that my dad and me left before the end) ended with a Yankees prospect snapping an ankle at the play at 1B. It was fairly similar to Hayward's injury, for a brief time they were worried about amputation of his foot because the blood flow got cut off or something. He actually did briefly make the majors, but he did forever lose what speed he had (and I think he went from outfielder, to first baseman in position after the injury) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlord Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Couple of interesting trades today, right before the deadline. Yeah, Garopollo to 49ers for 2nd rounder is the most interesting. Strangely, Tom Brady is currently the only QB on Patriots roster or practice squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Poor Garopalo, probably wanted to be a starter, but not with the 49ers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 He's an idiot if he doesn't want to work with Kyle Shanahan. One of the better coaches in the league. This might have been the most interesting NFL trade season I've ever experienced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Well, I wouldn't know, but the 49ers is a crap show you don't want to be part of. I would bet against being there for long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted November 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 This is how bad it's become. Broncos bench Trevor Siemian, turn to Brock Osweiler A guy that couldn't make the team in Cleveland--Cleveland!--is now the Broncos' starting quarterback. Mother of Hades.

Strangely, Tom Brady is currently the only QB on Patriots roster or practice squad. But it is also inexplicable: Quote ... But I’m just a nobody on the internet, maybe there is some master plan that John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan are cooking up. What happens when it all goes according to plan? Garappolo has eight games left on his contract.8. Games. If he is the second coming of Tom Brady and wins the remaining games for SF, they end up with an 8-8 record, which is too bad to make the playoffs and too good to get premium draft position. And then SF has to decide whether to give him a new contract or let him walk and recoup a compensatory pick. The highest possible comp pick is the third round, so SF loses at least one round of value if they let him walk. And if they pay him, they lose all the surplus value that a young good QB on a rookie contract provides. If he is the second coming of Brady, that is probably a good deal. If he is like every any other Brady backup from the last decade or even like the vast majority of second round QBs since 2001, a franchise QB deal or even a Mike Glennon-esque deal ($15 million a year for three years) would be borderline disastrous. And the kicker is that Garappolo would have been available a few months from now. A modicum of patience would enable them to keep their second round pick. What is the benefit of spending four years of a cost-controlled player for eight games of a backup QB? John Lynch may have the answer. But I doubt it.

Well, I guess he was still the #1 guy, but that might be more an indictment on their receivers. Carolina packs it in for the year evidently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
