AztecAlien Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Here was a bad idea. Becoming a Raider fan some 35 years ago was a bad idea. The Raiders Organization should make a football movie called Groundhog Season. But then again, everyone has already seen it over, and over, and over...

soupslam1 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Rams take down Cardinals 30-20. Two picks thrown by Murray cost the Cardinals 14 points. Kupp had 13 receptions. It just shows big time talent doesn’t always come from elite college football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started out looking like he might wash out. He dropped a game-winning TD his rookie year and then later in the season fumbled in the red zone without even being touched. But the guy has busted his ass. He’s all hulked out now after coming in looking like a twig. He want from being a liability on running plays to our best run-blocker. Battled back from a torn ACL. And now that he’s got a guy who’s just as good at reading and fooling defenses as he is throwing him the ball he’s out there setting records. It’s honestly a privilege to watch him play every week. When I go to games in person I keep my eyes on him when we’re on offense. He makes the whole thing go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if you watched the end of the game, but it got kind of dicey for The Big Sheep who tried to give that game away. Cardinals kicked a FG and then recovered an onside kick and had a chance to tie. I kept asking, how is this game not over yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the salary cap, when you add multiple stars, you sacrifice depth, so the guys were putting out on ST probably don’t belong in the league. Two practice squad players dove for the ball at once and ran into each other allowing the cardinals to recover. It’s going to cost us a playoff game I can feel it.

There was some suspect play calling from the Rams coaching staff towards the end of the game. It's funny that Kevin O'Connell is an former Aztec QB. The Rams kicking that FG to go up 10 made it a two score game. However, The Rams kept throwing the ball and stopping the clock when they were already in short FG range. A TD still makes it only a two score game. The Cardinals shouldn't have that much time left. Also, I was thinking I was glad I didn't push the AZ button. Then all of the sudden I was like WTF is happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, McVay calls the plays. O’Connell helps with developing and installing the gameplan, but McVay has said more than once that he’d rather get fired than give up playcalling. This is my gambling credo: If I keep an opinion to myself, it almost always happens. If I say it out loud, the opposite happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crixus Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Thursday night's game was a good one, Chiefs beat the Chargers 34-28 in OT. Mahomes was 31 of 47 for 410 yards with 3 TD passes. Mahomes got off to a slow start this season, but he's definitely back with a vengeance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester_in_reno Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 its all on Colts RB Jonathan Taylor tonight at 5:15 PST. He is the Colts attack. Colts favored by 2.5 right now at their dome. Factoid: This Colts-Patriots game will be the 1st one since 1997 without Manning or Brady involved! Colts starting Center is OUT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJSUMFA2013 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 You need a great quarterback to make it through the long nfl season, but individual games are won on the ground. Carson Wentz threw for 57 yards tonight and beat the 1 seed. That’s his ideal role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelawlorfaithful Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Who Dey! Maybe it’s just coincidence, but 7 playoff teams per conference makes almost every game really interesting. The AFC is like the west division this year, chair shots for everyone. We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch.

crixus Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Packers win @ Baltimore, 31-30. With Arizona's loss to Detroit (that's right, they lost to Detroit) Green Bay is the NFC top seed. And they clinched the NFC again North too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
