2024 NFL Season Thread

Or the Chiefs or Ravens. Or Jets LOL jk 

I would thoroughly enjoy the Lions Vs the Bills. May the best team win. Neither of their fans would annoy me….and neither team has ever won. Would be great for both cities.

Yeah, I’m trying this today.

I fully expect these things so they will NOT ruin my afternoon.

Bengals are 4-7….they need to win

Steelers always either just make it just miss the playoffs

I said all along the Steelers will be 8-8 and that “winning record” stuff will come down to the final drive of the season.

I know these things will happen in this game….so just go with it:

Steelers will do nothing on the 1st drive and Bengals will dominate time of possession in the 1st half 

Steelers will obviously run it up the gut several times on offense wasting plays.

Steelers on defense will have a 3rd and 15 and their zone defense will give up a frictionless 16 yard catch

Steelers will have all potential TD’s barely in or barely out by an inch

Steelers will have kick returns to the 17 while Boswell will not kick it through the end zone and allow returns to the 35+

Tomlin will misuse the clock before the half

Refs will call a lineman downfield by a yard on a play that has nothing to do with anything 

Bengals will get over top of the Steelers coverage 3+ times

Watt will be double teamed and held and Hendrickson will live in the Staeelers backfield 

And Boswell kicked off to the 11 and Bengals start on the 36. He’s a top 3 leg in the league 

Pickens trips himself and pick 6 is the result.

A blowout loss is much preferred over a 24-23 loss on the last play

My young students at school are in homes of happiness, they need that

I disagree with Steretore….the ref called it correctly

I agree with Steratore.  Pulled him down, grabbed the helmet.  That's at least two different penalties.

He tripped on his own doing and the push to the helmet was nothing I want called. Just want it the same both ways if it happens in our favor 

Defense isn’t average if no pressure on the QB….well above average if the do

Burrow made 1 play and everything else was frictionless

Pretty dirty hit on Lawrence by the Texans. Probably should be suspended.

Yeah, that was pretty bad.

That can’t happen. Looked as dirty as the collegiate hit on Shedeur a couple weeks ago.

If they are going to call d-line guys for flinching more up than forward and maybe getting to the LOS, they need to call the left tackles for stepping back a solid 1/2 second early.

If Victor Wembanyana can’t reach the hall…..they need to pick up the flag for interference if hall was already in the air

Every team the Bengals needed to lose won….waiting on Broncos Monday night. Broncos could finish 8-9, schedule is tough. Colts schedule is crazy easy.

Didn’t watch any NFL today. Took a nap, put up some Xmas lights, won $30 betting on the Steelers because the bengals were favored for some reason. 

Defense is historically bad. How do you come off a bye week and give up 44 points at home to a team that isn’t really feared for their offense. The Bengals offense played better than I would have thought. Idk, you have an elite QB and WR. How did they go into the season not foreseeing how bad the defense could end up. 

How does the d coordinator have a job ?

Justin Tucker having bad problems hooking his kicks wide left, now he plays for the hook trying to take the lead and hits it so solid it doesn't hook and misses just right

Lamar losing 15 yards on the sack will get no blame…he just wins the MVP every year

Panthers seem to be losing on purpose

I've been saying Tucker's fallen off a cliff for a while now. Used to be the most lethal kicker in football now you don't know if he'll make 2 out of his next 3 kicks.

And their D-Coordinator might pay the price for Mike Brown's cheapness (paying for defense). He was also one of the best DC's in the business over the past few years. Stevie Wonder could've seen how bad that secondary was, especially the safeties, going into the season. To let Russell Wilson put up 400+ passing yards on you is pretty embarrassing.
