2016-2017 NFL Thread


Recommended Posts

They had been talking all of training camp that an extension was in the works. I presume they weren't going to let one game ruin whatever they had already decided. They obviously view stability as key for the young QB and think Fisher is the right guy there. I agree that you need to have a lot of stability so a young QB comes up in one system and is able to really get ingrained in one offense, but man, Fisher has kind of proven he is what he is.

I know there were a few penalties last night, but I gotta say that was another fun Thursday night game. I also checked out the Twitter stream just to see how it was and I was impressed, nice job by the NFL doing this. Hopefully more leagues follow.

Yea, he has shown that he can provide stability for #1 overall QB picks lol.

Now I should point out, that is what "they" the Rams obviously must think. Not what Chisoxfn thinks. That said, in general, I am a big believer of surrounding a young player with stability, which is why if I'm drafting a QB #1 overall, I'm making sure whomever I have as his coach / OC are going to be there for a few years. You can't just cut the cord immediately. Heck, Tampa Bay went so far as to fire their HC to ensure their OC wouldn't get away from Winston (because they valued that consistency so much).

I am not meaning that to say I am poking fun at you. I have no idea wtf the Rams are doing or thinking. Offense has NEVER been Fishers forte'

But Koetter has shown he can lead young QBs. Fisher should never have been allowed another chance after last year, it's understandable with a young qb, but it's also just exacerbating a bad situation. Does anybody believe the Rams will be a threat?

Man, Vikes look like they have a superbowl level defense but how many more injuries can they take?

 

They are so fast to the football it's crazy. Their lateral quickness and tackling is better than Denver IMO.

If Bradford keeps playing like he did last night, they will win the division with Asiata as the starting RB.

After watching the Chiefs and the Bears play the Texans, I think it's fair to say that we might have underrated the offense a bit in week 1. The fact that the o-line kept Watt and Clowney fairly quiet is pretty impressive. They were all over Alex Smith yesterday.

These taunting penalties are so god damn stupid. Terrell Pryor got one for accidentally hitting Ladarius Webb with the ball when he was tossing it to the ref.

At this point everyone might as well twerk, because if you even smile you're getting a flag tossed.

This is so true, last week I thought the Bears had a nice 1st half and in the 2nd half just got out-talent'd so they deserved to lose but they put up a fight.

After watching Smith get pummeled yesterday it made last weeks game look even better, I think they win tonight.
