NFL Week 8: What Have We Learned?!!

[Loose]

-Chiefs/Ravens/Bengals fans hating on the Bills and Josh
-Ravens/Bengals/Bills fans hating on the Chiefs and Mahomes
-Bengals/Bills/Chiefs fans hating on the Ravens and Lamar
-Ravens/Chiefs/Bills fans hating on the Bengals and Burrow

He sat the 4th quarter. We saw a team come back down 24 last week getting td was right call

 

[Bboystyle]

Nobody knows but Lamar.
Hopefully this week vs the Dolphins

Saved for week 17 game

 

[Rob's al Ghul]

No MV8, no problem (this week ). Rest of the A-North lost yesterday. Beat Miami Thursday and hopefully catch fire from there. Where're all the Zach Orr detractors, BTW?

Falcons are the biggest Jekyll-and-Hyde team in the NFL.

Respect to Justin Fields. That postgame presser hit home for me. Dude’s too good for that owner.

I can see the league/networks trying to revive the Pats-Colts rivalry already, especially if they meet in January.

Philly needs to make the Kelly Greens permanent (again).

Usually I like to give big underdogs a chance, but I’m afraid it’s gonna be a bloodbath in KC tonight. They’ll probably let the Commanders hang for a half or so before turning on the jets.

If I remember correctly the Pats played against playoff teams in 07

Broncos , Rams and maybe Chargers could be in the post season.

 

[broller]

The chargers aren’t a play off team

they are a turn into a pumpkin in the playoffs team

What kind of logic is that? If a team plays in the playoffs, they're a playoff team, you buffoon.

 

[RammerJammer]

James Cook better than his brother

 

[VegetasHairline]

Remember when the Colts didn't wanna pay Jonathan Taylor?

For the first time this year the Broncos looked like they had a legit offense for the whole damn game; whatever they did they need to keep doing

Best game from Bo Nix this season

Cowboys offense was looking tough and Broncos defense came in and neutralized them

Able to win without their best defender playing the 2nd half; prayers up for PS2–hope that injury isn’t too serious

They need to stop playing and go back to the throwbacks as their main jerseys

They played Dallas, which they can't do every week. No stock should be put into any offense's effort against the Cowboys' defense unless the Cowboys' defense gets the better of the exchange, as it says more about the state of the opposing offense.

I didn't learn much of anything beyond the fact that Justin Fields is a man worthy of respect. Perhaps not for his ability to play quarterback, but as a man, absolutely.

Mvp is about numbers. He had no tds and a fumble that's following last weeks disaster. The defense won this game for them.

MVP is about narratives. If it were on numbers, Josh Allen doesn't win it last year.

Case in point: Jonathan Taylor is running through people. He's clearly the Colts' best player and is on pace to challenge LT's total touchdown record. However, if anybody gets MVP votes on that team, it will be Daniel Jones. At least in his case, I understand why.

Ben Johnson has no way to improve the Bears because the front office will never admit Caleb isn't who the hype claimed he is.

This is the kind of dialogue that can result in QBs flourishing elsewhere. It's year one in a new system, where a young quarterback with notable natural talent, accustomed to hero ball and off-schedule play, is trying to adapt to a coach whose offensive system requires consistent, on-time play from the position. Growing pains are to be expected.

Myles Garrett is wasted in Cleveland. He got paid so I get it but my God he deserves to win more.

Saying that his numbers would be down on a winning team as he wouldn't spend half as much time on the field

He deserves what he signed up for. He chose money over winning. It is what it is. He'll still go to the Hall of Fame.

The bolded isn't true, he wanted to be traded the owners refused his request. He essentially had no choice other to sit out for years or accept getting paid

 

[MoshpitMazi]

Packers best team in the NFC

 

[Tony D'Amato]

The Steelers may have the worst defense in the nfl. I dont care what the rankings say. They can't cover anybody

no one believes the chargers and jag Herbert are a playoff team. You just trying to prop them up to make the Colts run look like something it’s not.

I don't have a horse in the race. I ain't a Colts fan.

He should have sat out if he was that serious about winning. People are acting as if Myles wasn't financially set before he made that trade request.


He had his price. Cleveland paid it. It is what it is.
