NFL General Comments 2025 Season

[Jason_R]

These teams aren’t looking good. 

Tucker Kraft was GB’s best player. 

And maybe Lane Johnson is Philly’s best player.

These teams suck.

[MichiganCardinal]

Eagles have the Packers calling a timeout under 2:30 and then throw two consecutive incomplete passes.

The Eagles coaching isn’t good. They’re talented enough to win a Super Bowl. But they’re not well coached.

WTF, Siriani?!

[Motown Bombers]

I don't think Campbell even goes for that.

What would that have been,  a 52 yard field goal?

Or even pooch kick it down the field, get it inside the 20.

1st place Detroit Lions

Best outcome. GB loses, Philly looks beatable.

I agree.  But while GB looks like a bunch of sucks who suck at football.   Philly looks like a defense to worry about.

I bought an antenna and ABC comes in. I was looking into Sling Orange...24 hours for $5. But ABC came in with a $20 antenna...just like 1965. 😆😆

Well, after what, almost 2 weeks it was the first time I missed ABC or ESPN.   I'm fine without them.   I barely watched either one anyway.   Plus, they'll be back before too long.  

[Motor City Sonics]

So Siriani says that he was worried that the Packers could be in Hail Mary territory if they had missed the FG.    

So he tries a 4th and 6 which, if missed, could leave the Packers in.............Hail Mary territory. 

 

What? 

 

You punt there.   You bury them inside the 20.  

 

I still don't get what the hell he was doing there.   

 

 

Neither one of those teams from last night looks scary.    

 

But the NFL is different week-to-week.

Last weeks game didn't matter to me, Dallas and Arizona. But I really wanted to see Green Bay/Philly. It was a snoozefest but 2 good teams. I love seeing the Packers lose.  😅😅

I thought maybe Hurts was throwing the ball deep to get it picked off. Kind of like a punt. But I agree, punt the ball and try to pin them deep. He's lucky that Love is a choke artist. 😆

[MichiganCardinal]

In a 10-7 game, there should be no question what you do there. Have your punter pin them inside the 10 and make them drive 60 yards to tie with <30 seconds and no timeouts.

Even the drive before that, Philly had Green Bay on their heels, calling a timeout on a 1st down run to conserve time. Then they threw two incomplete passes on routes (not screens). It never even would have gotten to the point of needing to make a decision on 4/6 if they just run it up the middle twice and make Green Bay use the rest of their timeouts.

[Motown Bombers]

According to Jacobs that 4th down play did not have an audible option for another play. Do they not trust Love to get them into the right play? The Eagles were literally yelling out the play. They had it sniffed out.

Love was horrible last night. The kind of horrible where you think about moving on in the offseason. When they missed the practice kick by two yards they drew up a quick screen to gain a couple and he somehow overthrew a wide open WR screen.

[Jason_R]

He has all the superficial skills that a talented offensive mind like LaFleur can take advantage of and that casual fans can get excited about. But he has none of the skills of a guy like Jared Goff who processes quickly pre- and post-snap to get the ball where it needs to be. Love has the playground-ball highlight reel, Goff ends up top of the league in all the QB stats that matter.

I think that was the plan too. Hurts overthrew it, he needed to throw something contested to possibly draw one of the ridiculous DPI calls that are so common.

He should be perfect for Sean McVay after Stafford hangs them up. 🤔

The defender didn't even look back for the ball. He would have had to throw it really high right at some defenders. But then they could run it back....shoulda punted

Great trade
