NFL 2021-2022 Season

Too bad climbing on other players is a penalty in the NFL...

[Jack the Stripper]

Yeah I’ve wondered say if a wide receiver went for high jumping catch in the end zone and an opposition player of players got underneath him as he jumped and he used their back for extra elevation without placing his hands on them or forcibly move them whether it would stand or not. AFL players would be great at catching and reading the ball in flight.

Meanwhile, there are 12 teams with a winning record, 6 AFC and 6 NFC. I'm wondering if we'll see any of these teams change position much by the end of December.

NFC: Cowboys / Cards, Rams / Packers / Bucs, Saints

AFC: Bills / Chargers, Raiders / Ravens, Bengals / Titans

I think some teams can get to above .500, but I don't know if many of these teams get unseated, barring some kind of disaster.

[Jack the Stripper]

Still early days but you’d have to say the NFC top 6 is looking much stronger than the AFC.

I still haven’t watched a Cardinals game this season only highlights so what is it that’s given them this 6-0 record Z? They’re obviously playing well on both sides of the football. They’re scoring well and not giving up a lot of points. They weren’t really talked up a lot in the pre season.

[Zzzptm]

Great defense, but have you seen that offensive line? It's those guys that are a major part of how the Cardinals score 32 points per game.

Cards play Texans this week, so that should make them look like gods among men. I'm looking forward to the game vs Green Bay in 2 weeks, that should be some good football fun to watch, and we'll see what these two top teams can do against each other.

Cleveland looked good against Denver last night. That means Cleveland's not as bad as I thought they were and Denver *is*

I'm rooting for the Chiefs to come out and make a statement against the Titans on Sunday. Ravens-Bengals is a game of interest, but that's about it for games to determine who's on top of things. I think that, in general, the teams with winning records will beat the teams with .500 or losing records. I don't expect surprises, but if they happen, I will be surprised.

Teams with losing records against other teams with losing records I don't consider all that important. Like the Jets-Patriots game. I think the Patriots win that one, but... eh? Who celebrates when they beat the *Jets* in 2021?

[Jack the Stripper]

Denver needs a QB and the Browns have a good QB but not a great QB. Picking Baker Mayfield ahead of Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen is gonna hurt them for years.

Bengals(4-2) @ the Ravens(5-1) looks a decent game as well.

I’m not rooting for the Chiefs. I’d prefer them out of the picture. Sorry Vyn

[Jack the Stripper]

Wow! Did not see that coming. Burrow absolutely shredded the Ravens defense as the Bengals  banged on 41 points and kept the Ravens to 17. Meanwhile, Mahomes and the Chiefs had an absolute nightmare failing to score a single touchdown. At 3-4 the Chiefs are not looking like a playoff team right now.

The Packers have now won 6 in a row and the Cardinals continue to roll on at 7-0. TB did it easy against Chicago.

About to settle into the 49ers v Colts game

The Chiefs did everything they needed to do right, wrong. I don't think they're going to have any problem missing the playoffs this season, they need to forfeit the rest of their games and work on basic shit like holding onto the ball, protecting their passer, maybe lookup the word "defense" and find out what it actually means.

True they do need to improve their defense, but when you score only 3 points, the best defense in the world ain't going to help you.

[Zzzptm]

Man, the Chiefs... ouch... this was supposed to be a bounce back game for them.

Over to the Bengals, word is out that they're legit.

[Zzzptm]

Big game between Arizona and Green Bay... Arizona had two huge errors: dropped punt and ignored pass on the final play. Arizona almost had it, but for that last play of theirs. GB played amazing, considering all their injuries.

[Jack the Stripper]

Was good for the Cowboys to get out of Minnesota with a win after losing Dak before the game and the offense not playing anywhere near their best. The Defense kept them in it restricting the Vikings to field goals and after struggling for much of the game the offense stepped up when it counted.

How the hell did the Jets beat the Bengals?

[Zzzptm]

Yes, the Boys-Vikings game was a good one, and that defense did a great job. Cooper Rush came through overall and that last touchdown pass was sweet, sweet, sweet.

Mike White is what happened to the Jets. Gave them the first game to go over 400 yards passing in over 20 years. Bengals weren't ready for it, I think they were planning to take this game for granted.

[Vyn]

Well, the Chiefs won, but played like clowns the entire game. It was painful to watch.
