Was amazed that Jones got another contract. Was clearly never, ever going to be good enough.

Though I am finding Dak's new contract at the Cowboys quite funny. Obviously not as bad as Jones but he's never going to win you anything.

Is Jones an upgrade for a team like Las Vegas? He's not very good but they are awful behind centre.

I've heard he's most likely going to go Dolphins or Cardinals as a backup.

If his performance against Philly a couple of weeks ago is anything to go by (8 sacks, was it?), he wouldn't be an upgrade for any team in the NFL right now! But was most of it down to a very poor O-line???

Didn't like Dak's contract from the start.
Cowboys getting into a Vikings-Cousins situation where you have a QB that is purely out to make money. And overpaying a decent (but not too) QB elite money.
Keep saying that teams are overpaying too many QBs - and in a salary cap sport that's crazy. Chiefs are only team to win a superbowl with a QB accounting for more than 13% of the cap.
Cowboys are just digging themselves deeper into a hole - have to pay Dak, Lamb and Parsons. Going to have no money for anyone else. Think Dak is nearly 90million against 2025 cap.

Oh. I think something has gone wrong with the system here.

I am pretty certain that when you sign up to SBT you have to state which NFL team you support and if you say Cowboys, you are immediately banned and not allowed to post.

Hopefully, it's just a temporary glitch and you will be gone by lunchtime.

I'm pretty sure my support for the Eagles slipped through the net too. In the US at least, Birds fans seem to be on a par with Millwall on the "no-one likes us, we don't care" scale! Don't know why.

Have a poor reputation for attacking visiting fans - not hooligan stuff just pissed up fans picking off people in the stadium and car parks. Obviously no segregation in NFL.

How the heck did 8-2 Steelers lose to 2-8 Browns? Local derby in a blizzard might have had some influence on the result. Our soft footballers would have have the game called off in those conditions!

coming off a really tough, physical game on Sunday didn't help

The Commanders.

What the hell!

 

[tisza]

Vikings did their best to throw it.

 

[Liquid Gold]

That commanders game was insane.

Absolute diabolical game for 3.5 quarters only to nearly pull it out of the bag again then throw it away twice.

I think they’re struggling because of the late bye. They seem to be a bit jaded at the moment.

Got to think more than ever Giants GM Schoen is regretting the Hard Knocks. "Need to save money on Barkley, spend the money on helping our $40m QB" etc

Meanwhile Saquon pushing for the first non-QB to win MVP since 2012! Lions-Eagles NFC game for sure

Hope the Lions annihilate them.

Can't stand the Eagles, especially after the treatment of the Waitress in It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.

shambolic decision the by giants not to sort a new deal. The view that it’s just a RB might be correct for 80-90% of players in that position but Barkley is special

I've decided my first four kids will be named Saquon.

Surely Saquon, Saqtwo, Saqthree and Saqfour

Simply excellent!!
Now, where do i sign for vasectomy reversal??

Freakin' comedy of errors! Even that onside kick - just crazy! No wonder they are both where they are!

KOC looking at another QB rehab project.
