thelawlorfaithful Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Put Zach Taylor in a straitjacket. Somehow the football gods showed the Bengals some love, but we tried like hell to Tin Cup the game and the season. Ridiculous. We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BacksThePack Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Looks like the NFL will stop teams asking "Is your mother a prostitute?" at the combine anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJSUMFA2013 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I am consumed with doubt and fear over this rams-49ers game. We need to win to secure the division and #2 seed, but the niners have beaten us 5 times in a row. The last game in particular was checkmate from snap 1. The rams have been playing better, but the same issues - erratic play from Stafford, only one healthy/trustworthy running back, no answer for inside runs and quick passes that negate our speed on defense - still exist. Basically, lose this game, and you can forget about the super bowl. All of the nfc contenders follow the same formula. Win, and show that you have an answer for it, and I think you have to consider them co-favorites with Green Bay. Either way, I’ll be happy when this one is over.

If Stafford doesn’t give away the ball more than once the Rams win. He gave away two TDs against the Ravens, first a pick 6, then a fumble in the Ravens red zone. I see the Rams pumped for this game to kick some Niner ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interceptions wouldn’t bother me so much if they weren’t just careless throws. He stared down his tight end Sunday and threw a pick-6 as a result. He also threw deep into triple-coverage when he had a WR underneath with no one within 20 yards of him for a first down and a huge gain. It’s like he thinks he can make any throw, even ones that literally no one on earth can. To his credit, he went 14/14 in the second half and engineered a beautiful GW drive, but against playoff teams, if he throws the game away in the first half, he won’t have the chance to throw himself back into it in the second. The other top teams in the nfc are too good to let that happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, most NFL players are black, therefore a higher threshold of proof becomes the norm when you discount black players cognitive ability without a concussion. That save a ton of money. Secondly, the league has seriously taken on the social justice cause lately, now apparently as a smokescreen to hide their racist approach to previous issues. It's disgusting, but it's the NFL and I am not shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
