Board 8 > NFL Discussion Topic - Week 2

(+) Yeah! (+)

I imagine Falcons fans are going to have alternative plans Sunday afternoon

---

As if Falcons fans aren't used to sucking by now

---

NFL deciding to showcase the best of the best early in the year by giving us Giants/Football Team.

---

Trash fire football between two bad teams is the best kind of football to watch yes.

Sometimes it is, but sometimes you also get a 6-3 game in the 3rd quarter.

And you get to laugh at Danny Dimes for losing two fumbles and throwing two more picks

I'm ready for Mac Jones to lead us to the basement of the AFCE

270 yards, 1TD/1INT

put some respect on the Football Team

---

It's an NFLN exclusive so it's not like a ton of people will be watching it
---

I got NFL Gamepass from DAZN this year now that I'm back home in Canada. It's going to cost me $80 for the regular season, which is a third of the price I paid last year in Portugal for the same service not on DAZN.

---

Giants are a bottom 5 team sure but WFT's defense alone means they aren't.

I feel like the answer is simple. If Danny Dimes is a flop this year, they're all fired, so they have to keep saying he's good even though they know he isn't.

no need to write a full article on this

Espn articles that aren't behind their paywall are generally trash click bait aimed at the casual fan. We knew they were sticking with him this time last year >.>

Joe Judge isn't going anywhere though; he's just going to end up inherenting an entirely new setup for his year 3.

Gettleman somehow still has a job but he'd be out the door with Jones in a second.

---

So is anyone else hearing the Spanish broadcast underneath?

---

Giants looking almost competent on this first drive. Saqoun looking rough but that WFT line probably isn't helping.

---

Did the giants seriously punt on the 38

Not an awful game so far

---

Jones with the "What" throw followed by the sack.

---

The Giants defense continues to excel at giving up last minute touchdowns.

Joe Judge learned from the best

---

Giants are bad.

---

lol giants

---

lol football team

---

WFT is also bad.

---

People are paid millions of dollars and this shit happens

---

see this is the kind of bad football you want to see on Thursday night

---

Oh come on WHY

Whhhhhyyyyy

---

This is the same Giants team we've seen for 3 years now: A pathetic bunch of self-sabotaging losers who can't figure out how to win without being flat out gifted the game.

Can't blame Jones for this one~

---

all hail the Taylor Heinicke era

---

both teams were trying so hard to lose, credit to the Giants for pulling it out

---

D Lawrence whoever you are, godspeed.

@MZero How or where to watch NFL live in Japan???

DAZN, they don't have every game but they have all the nationally televised games and a few of the afternoon games

Or you can get NFL Gamepass for all the games, but it's more expensive

"Darius Slayton somehow drops a wide open TD"

ESPN's already lit the fire~

"somehow drops" a ball that was clearly overthrown and would have been an incredible play had he made it. right.

---

Good to see I'm not the only one that didn't think that was a drop. Clearly overthrown and he only got one hand on it

---

You must have a much stricter definition of drop than I do.

That's maybe a little more difficult than a catch I would call "routine".

---

He had to extend his arms all the way out while sprinting full speed just to barely get this fingertips on the ball, it's a tough catch to make. Jones rocketed that thing in there when he should have lobbed it cause he was all alone, but the pressure probably got to him and rushed the throw. That's how I saw it anyway

Although if he dove he might have got it

---

The biggest thing that hurt the Giants was penalties, not that catch (the big Jones run got called back for a hold and would have decided the game, in addition to the offsides missed field goal)

For a man who always talks about discipline the team sure wasnt

---

It's definitely not a routine catch, but he had way more than just his fingertips on that ball. If he didn't close his hands too early it wouldn't have bounced off his hands. He got to the spot in time, so it was plenty catchable as a result.

It was an inexcusable drop imo.

---

I missed a fun one to comment on live. =(

Yeah, that was an overthrow but it was definitely catchable. Drop or not idk, but the commentators were crazy to put all their blame on the receiver (for the entire rest of the game) and nothing on Jones for the overthrow of a guy who was basically as wide open as you'll ever see in the NFL.

---

go go my lionz on MNF definitely going to dunk on Aaron Rodgers and not the other way around

---

Remember last year when the Lions were about to beat the Packers on MNF and take over 1st place in the NFC North.

Then they got jobbed by the refs and won like two games the rest of the season.

---

was that last year? I thought it was two years ago

---

Maybe it was

Every season runs together as I get older

---

the last 64 years since the last lionz championship have all run together

---

Today I learned Gus Johnson and Aqib Talib are calling Vikings/Cardinals this Sunday

That could be something
