Think its more that the Lions look bad

The Lions look like Matt Patricia is their new DC. Also, I am thankful we drafted Q over Arnold.

The real infuriating reason the NFL wants to "crack down on taunting" this season. Because Americans have a negative stigma in a lot of countries, particularly Europe, as being crass and obnoxious and they don't want football players to come off as obnoxious when trying to market it to other countries. The infuriating part is this lame crackdown ties directly into them wanting to take the Super Bowl away from us and play it overseas. It's corporate greed through and through.

If they can blow up the run that easily, how effective is play action going to be?

It would be great because they have 8-9 defenders full speed to the LOS. Teams will be hell bent on not letting Saquon have a legendary game against them. Patullo needs to learn from this. KC will be doing the exact same thing. Hopefully he isn't a dumb MF.

They look like he's their OC too.

Purdy picked!

Purdy looks ordinary.

NFL got one good kickoff so far this weekend. Bang up job on the new kickoff rule

Might be the dumbest thing they've instituted into the NFL in the last half century. I'm not even sure if there's something dumber somewhere else.

I had this thought too. They're trying to grow the game globally with all the international games. Who knows if it's actually the reason, but it's what I came up with as well.

Go to a soccer game…you’ll quickly see that’s not the reason. The NFL ‘taunts’ and ‘celebrations’ are tame compared to them.

I don't like him as a player and I think he is vastly overpaid now.

To be fair, he has no WRs today and I think Kittle got hurt too.

True. Maybe they're trying to appeal to a younger audience. Hell if I know lol.

Bo Nix 3 turnovers today.

If the NFL believes player conduct will make an impact to the perception of Americans abroad, they are more stupid than I thought they were. No one in normie land cares- sport over here has taunting, cheating etc and that is just talking about the fans. What a wet blanket Goodell is

I want Denver to win so KC is alone in last place in the division.

English speaking Europeans regularly use a word that we would never use in America. That is what Goodell is.

Idk if Jordan love can play like this the packers are a very dangerous team. Their entire legitimacy falls on love

Not exactly. Some of it falls on his WRs being drop prone too.

Also, he cant because the eagles pressure him and hes not the same when he has to run around.

Why does it seem so difficult for the Eagles to get their star WR the ball at times? It's always eye opening watching other games to see catch after catch by WRs. I'm pretty sure we all agree Jalen Hurts played a great game on Thursday. He was decisive, he ran when he needed to and he was accurate with the ball. With that being said, how do DeVonta and AJ only come away with 4 catches for 24 yards? Are the Dallas DB that good that they can erase a top 3 and top 10 WR in the NFL? Do the Eagles need to scheme better to get them the ball? I know the Eagles can win every which way, but it's not like the running game dominated either.

You'd have to look at the tape and see if Brown and Smith are getting separation, getting open.

If they are, then you'd have to look at the QB. Hurts has said the offense is going to look how he wants it to. I dont know how much he goes thru all his progressions but it seems sometimes he doesn't and will just go 1st read, nothing there, let me run for it.

He's not the typical QB as far as throwing it. I know some dont want to hear that but its true and I'm not saying he cant be that QB at times but he's just different and bottom line is he wins.

Have you watched Premier League or La Liga games? I don’t think taunting in the NFL would make a difference in viewership.

Losing 7 on 2nd and goal from the 10 is ... not ideal.

We are crass and obnoxious. Top down. Crass and obnoxious is no way to go through life.

Saying he can’t based off last year’s eagles defense is not exactly true for this year’s version of eagles defense, him and packers. Wont know that for a couple weeks if love has made improvements in his 3rd year starting and how close the eagles defense is to 2024
