Because his play-calling is atrocious. My god. I have not been a fan all year and am perfectly fine elevating Clint Kubiak or bringing Shurmur back. Get this guy out of here.
Buffalo lost a game they absolutely had in hand. It was truly demoralizing to watch them choke it away like that. Houston isn't physical enough to win a Super Bowl.
That being said, Josh Allen was way too reckless yesterday. Buffalo needs one more WR.
An unsung scapegoat in yesterday's game...
First of all...lolGiants
Watching Carolina this morning with Kyle Allen at QB...not impressed with Allen. Suspect arm strength, lots of poor throws. It's a one game sample size--maybe he's better than this, but I doubt it.
QB hotseat Thread
Note: Kirk Cousins would be part of this if Minnesota had a viable starter as backup. But Sean Mannion.
Marcus Mariota benched for Tannehil
My answer: yes. Marcus Mariota sucks and the Titans need to accept that and move on.
Joe Flacco benched for Drew Lock
My answer: no...
The Eagles are absolute fools if they don't keep feeding Jordan Howard and sprinkling in Miles Sanders. It doesn't matter how high Carson Wentz's ceiling is--every quarterback that's ever existed needs a running game.
Green Bay needs to get their running game going. Three straight weeks of...

1. Does Cam Newton scare anyone anymore?
2. How good is Christian McCaffrey, really? If I have a good defense with LBs that can cover, he's pretty much neutralized.
3. Is a controlled, patient Jameis Winston good enough to win more games like this or do the Bucs need a balance between last...
Please pardon the TL;DR title.
Mike Zimmer is my favorite coach in the NFL. I was ecstatic when the Vikings hired him 5 years ago. I'm thrilled that he has lasted so long with the franchise.
But after a disaster of a fifth season under the direction of Zimmer, I'm forced to ponder whether or...

So this is awful. Hopefully Everson can get the help he needs. This also makes Sunday make sense, imo. If he wasn't allowed back with the team until he underwent an evaluation, his...
What caught your eye in week 1?
TNF:
The Eagles defense is still nasty. Yeah, the Falcons struggle in the RZ but Phily's defense had more to do with that than people think. Also, it really sucks that Atlanta lost two studs on defense in that game. Here's to hoping Neal and Jones return in...
I like this. We already have a top 5-10 DT in Linval and now we pair him with Richardson? Goddamn. The only downside is this likely means Shariff Floyd won't be able to play again.
Discuss your impressions of the tendencies of head officials from each game and whether or not you're happy with the NFL's selections.

Head Official: Bill Vinovich
Tendencies: Vinovich's crews often call the least amount of penalties, and this season was an excellent example...
The Panthers fans I know are dancing in the streets and sending thank you letters to the Saints franchise, because Rivera finally fired the worst OC and QB coaches in the league.
The Panthers win the South next year, confirmed.
Nobody knows exactly when Carson Wentz's left ACL tore on Sunday afternoon. The hit that was tied to the injury seemed rough but there appeared to be no twisting of the knee. It has been speculated that this as a non-contact injury. We may never know what exactly happened.
In steps Nick Foles...
This does not sound good at all. Shazier is one of the most fun players to watch on the defensive side of the ball. The football fan in me selfishly wants him to play again. The human being in me wants him to make the best decision for his own well being and the tenability of a normal life...
