OFFICIAL 2013-2014 NFL Thread

Tanner provided one of my favorite plays of the game, and wasn't even a scoring one. Our rookie LB Holleman took care of a score with that pick six. Another favorite play. But here's Tanner....

Dallas's backup QB's impressed me. Every one of them. A couple threading of the needles on 3rd and longs over the middle between two defenders, running the offense's and some nice deep throws as well. I guess that's what a strong running game does to a QB's confidence.

[Liam]

Gotta say...Trickshot Tanney did nothing to impress me. Stephens did, but not Tanney. Not giving up after 1 game, but there's a question whether there will even BE a 3rd QB in Dallas.

Right now, I got the Falcons/Bengals on. BORING fucking 3-3 game.

[slucero]

Niners are losing.. 7 - 3

eh, preseason..

[Liam]

I don't even really keep score in preseason....I just look for damn good plays. I'll say that it's cool when you win, but it doesn't help your record, so just look for talent. HEY WAIT....that's what they're doing.

[slucero]

Mark Sanchez has to be the luckiest fucker in the NFl...

Sanchez tosses a pick his 1st play.. plays like ass for most of his game time

Geno twists his ankle...

[Jonny B]

Tom Brady looked liked his usual self in spite of all the new faces at WR. RB Legarette Blount is looking like the steal of Free Agency. If for any reason the young receiving corps fail, Tom's got a running game to fall back on....But, it's looking like another year of giving up big plays on defense. They made both Mike Vick, Nick Foles, heck even Matt Barkley, look like studs.

Ryan Mallett impressed me. He has starter potential, but he needs to hit the easy passes.

What baffled me was how even Tim Tebow managed to lead the team on a scoring drive. He was terrible and yet Josh McDaniels knew what plays to call (ala screens and awesome running game) to make him semi-successful. I expect him to play a role on special teams.

[YoungJRNY]

Other than some blitzes here and there and working on scheme issues, defense's are playing as vanilla as possible in the pre-season. The first team offense's go out there and hope to execute their gameplan against the fronts they get from the defense and hope most of the young guys/backups perform up to snuff against the first teamers/competition battles. Don't buy into much of the first pre-season game.

Game 3 of the preseason is the one to watch where the coach's treat the practices like game week with actual gameplans put in and starters go out there and play well into the 3rd qrt of action.

Steelers play tonight. All I'm looking for is how this offense can execute some of their new wrinkles like the zone blocking scheme and how Le'Veon Bell works in with the 1's. Can't wait to see most of this Steelers rookie class since most of them will be called upon this season, which is very rare for Pittsburgh.

[Liam]

I'll be watching tonight, but I hate you both, so I hope you both find a way to lose.

Our 2nd and 3rd teams SUCKED last night.

[YoungJRNY]

They might as well blackout the scoreboard, haha. The only wins and loss's that come out of this is the injury report. Many injuries this season is at an all-time high in camp, but the injury bug caught the Steelers early and often last season. It took all but one play to lose their starting Fullback/Hybrid Tight End last year in game 1 and game 2 saw their #1 rookie draft pick go down with an ACL dislocation.

Plax is done for the year with a rotators cuff and Heath Millers backup Matt Spaeth may miss the season with a foot, so tonight, I'm just rooting for a healthy injury report and hoping these young guys come around to the speed of NFL fields.

[Liam]

If the injury bug hits us again like last year....hello to the 3rd straight 8-8 season, and goodbye Garrett.

Dude, I like that Tanney kid. Why don't you like him?

[Liam]

I don't not like him...he might do well somewhere, but he hasn't impressed me much at all, other than the youtube vid from a couple years ago. He might end up comin' along more in the next 3 weeks, so we'll see. As of now, he's on my first cut list.

[mikemarrs]

As far as running backs go some of the best of all time Emmitt Smith,Walter Payton,Barry Sanders they pushed the all time record to over 15,000 and Emmitt Smith is first with 18,355 yards.In fact it will be a very long time before anyone gets near the record because right now there is not even an active player in the top twenty five of the list.Among active players i think Adrian Peterson and Chris Johnson both could come close if they play more seasons in rush based offenses and right now both do.Both Adrian Peterson and Chris Johnson are among the six players in history who have rushed over 2,000 yards in a season.Both are saying they think they can do it again.Chris Johnson holds the all time record for most total yards from scrimmage in a single season with 2,509 yards.Johnson also holds the record for the most longest runs with six different runs in his career over eighty yards.Barry Sanders did hold the record with three runs over eighty yards.Peterson has the most 50+ yard runs in a single season with seven and also the most yards rushing in a single game with 296.Johnson has sixteen different runs of 50 yards or more in his career.Right now both C.J. and Adrian say they are the best in the game at their position.Chris Johnson has had to deal with a terrible line the last two seasons and the team has responded by totally revamping their line adding pro bowl guard Andy Levitre from Buffalo,Robert Turner from St. Louis and drafting guard Chance Warmack first round from Alabama and center Brian Schwenke from California.Adrian Peterson will look to gain more yardage on offense this season especially after Minnesota traded away their best receiver Percy Harvin.Chris Johnson will look to bounce back with a much better line this season.

Knee sprain. Day to day.

[Liam]

And on Teblow's birthday......HMMMMM.

[mikemarrs]

16 different runs of 50 yards or more by Chris Johnson in his short five year career.I think he has a great year especially for fantasy players.He has a totally revamped offensive line this season look for him to have one of his best seasons yet........

Niners are not looking like a Super Bowl team at the moment..

[YoungJRNY]

Nobody's a Super Bowl team at the moment. 2012 is LONG GONE..

I've noticed the NFL has a new policy on bags entering games. They can either be NFL clear bags or a 1 gallon resealable clear bag
I plan on taking my camera to the game as I want to take a number of pictures using a couple of different lenses. Now I'll have to work out how I'll manage it

There you go. Start a business, design a clear camera bag, get a prototype made in China, and get exclusive rights with the NFL to allow it at games. Problem solved with some coin in your pocket.

That's what some would do. Me, I'll bring it up and then do nothing and complain that it was my idea when I see it later.

[Liam]

Try this...it MIGHT help. And be sure to order a jersey with it, or shipping will kill you for one item

Problem is the NFL have already beaten me to it

I think I'll just take my camera and hang it around my neck and hold the lenses until I can buy a bag there.
Is it pretty standard for people to walk past selling food and drinks? Just think it might be easier than queuing up.
