2020 NFL Thread...

They were missing a few coaches and defensive players due to the 'rona, weren't they? Apparently the Lions aren't big-time enough for the NFL for alter their schedule for them. Which really shouldn't surprise anyone not named Classy, to be truthful. They're one of a handful of franchises in the league that I can legit see the NFL saying, "Dude, you can either show up and take your L or you can forfeit and then get fined and lose some draft picks for fucking with our TV arrangements -- it really doesn't matter to us..." to.

Not that I don’t mostly agree but my lord a few of those TD players weren’t even trying. Looked like Pro Bowl defense a few times

Anyone else streaming this game? The livestream I am getting from Prime is basically a 1978 picture that is hazy and fuzzy as hell because the antenna needs turned.

I assume everyone’s isn’t that bad or people from Prime are going to get fired. It’s virtually unwatchable.

May as well que up the last two minutes of the 1978 Gator Bowl. See one of the stupidest moments in college football, and the picture is probably better than the one you're seeing now.

Oh good....49ers/Cards on Prime video

Love turning on the tv and it means nothing anymore. Gotta have Dish, fire stick, YouTube tv, prime video and everything else now to watch about 15 stations....or you can have any one and miss a 1/3 of the stuff you want to watch.

Just drop cable, save money, and get a Roku or something.

And get used to Prime. They and Disney+ are the front runners for the next Sunday Ticket deal.

There is 0% chance of getting used to what I tried to watch. I gave up in the 2nd half. I’ve not had any issue with any other streaming. The picture was flat out unwatchable.

It’s almost 2021....I just want things better than 2012. I’m not seeing it.

What I watched went from a crisp Bose sound system to a sparkomatic AM radio...not quite on the station.

I’ll assume when the big shot Amazon gets more games regularly they’ll get it together so everyone can sign on to the livestream and actually enjoy the product.

Waller is so damn reliable in making tough catches 

Good game. Dolphins coach not closed-minded or worried about current feelz. Tua a classy young QB that gets it. Fitz has helped make it all work.

Wow!

These effing kickers 🤦🏻‍♂️

Set up for Fitzmagic

Dolphins scored too early!

Good game

The desired effect of the lengthened XP.  I wonder how the league average on XP conversions compared to the league average on FGs plus or minus 3 yds of XP length.

Smart penalty, to not give the Raiders six plays to run out the clock!

They were offsides on the first play after the 2min warning, but it wasn't called, but the injury stopped the clock!

Raiders dumb as fuck

What in God’s name? Holy crap

John Vande Velde stuff right there folks

Can the Ravens miss the playoffs at 11-5?

That's basically what Liberty did in their bowl game, but they won in OT. Liberty ignored a touchdown to kneel on the ball to eat clock, then tried to score on the next play and fumbled it over to Coastal Carolina. It was just hilariously stupid.

I mean the decision to run it down seemed solid as in only 19 seconds  and needing 50 yards with no timeouts...I feel me and you could contained our side to under a 40 yard gain.

Equals out....Jets gave Raiders a win

To rough the passer as well...unreal way to keep the Browns out of the playoffs.

Basically the decision becomes would you rather give the team 19 seconds needing a fg or 50 seconds needing a TD. I'd rather force a team to go the distance since it becomes a lot harder to pass as the field shrinks. Plus the Raiders would have went for 2 after TD, so a Dolphins TD may have only tied the game depending upon that outcome.

Gave up 55 yards on 1 play with 19 seconds left....they were meant to lose
