Support NeoGAF

[gutshot]

In Week 4, the entire NFL community rallied together to take a stand and engage in the time-honored American tradition...

...of telling Donald Trump to go fuck himself.

(In all seriousness though, the response to Trump's inflammatory tweets were good to see. It is also good to see players working with the commissioner and owners on trying to enact real change. Hopefully this weekend will be remembered as a turning point in the on-going struggle for racial equality.)

Other American traditions honored this week include, the Lions getting screwed...

...Tom Brady leading 4th quarter comeback drives...

...and Eli Manning's face.

[Hindl]

Go Eagles

Get better Cox

 

[Dishwalla]

Go Raiders! Come back strong and beat those Donkeys down!

 

[friskykillface]

Super bowl 50 rematch hype
;p

Panthers wish they faced the pats in 50 lol

 

[Officerrob]

Please don't suck again Raiders

 

[Rvaan]

Go Texans.

 

[Goro Majima]

Go Pack Go!

Fuck the Bears

 

[Sephzilla]

Go Pack Go!

But Tate was down before the ball crossed the goal line

 

[TheGrizz]

Go Pack go, please don't start out as slow as you did on Sunday against the Bengals. We can't lose to the Bears at home, we just can't!

 

[Sweeney Tom]

lolions

 

[hughesta]

hey uhhhhhhhhh go bears

 

[foppy79]

Go Jake Elliott

 

[Sephzilla]

Go Pack go, please don't start out as slow as you did on Sunday against the Bengals. We can't lose to the Bears at home, we just can't!

If the Packers ever needed a big blowout win, right now would be the perfect time for it. Kick the crap out of a rival at home and get a lot of momentum leading into a big match in Dallas

 

[King Kovu]

Go Titans!

 

[PeskyToaster]

The lions call was the correct one. clearly down before the ball was in the endzone. Just a sad way for it all to end though.

 

[gutshot]

Go Pack Go!



But Tate was down before the ball crossed the goal line

I've watched the gif a couple dozen times and still am not convinced of that. But even so, they got screwed because if the call had been made in real-time, they probably would have been able to get one more play off.

 

[Jarnet87]

Hot off Case Brady's destruction of my Bucs, Schmeli Manning comes to town. Odell and crew are going to feast against the leagu's worst secondary.

 

[Sephzilla]

I've watched the gif a couple dozen times and still am not convinced of that. But even so, they got screwed because if the call had been made in real-time, they probably would have been able to get one more play off.

He's pretty clearly down. Knee on the ground, being touched by a defender, has control of the ball, is a few feet short.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

I think the Bears have a shot on Thursday. The Packers look like their usual selves, where Rodgers has to bail out the rest of his team.

 

[Plasticine]

Stare horrified into the pale, slack-jawed face of your destroyer, Green Bay.

The Destructor is coming. Glennon the Traveler, the Destroyer.

Go Bears!

 

[mnannola]

Cowboys looked pretty good last night. They still seem to rely a little too much on the running game in order to open up the passing game, but as long as the offensive line plays well that isn't a huge deal. Dak looked pretty good.

 

[Sephzilla]

The Destructor is coming. Glennon the Traveler, the Destroyer.

I tried to think of the most harmless thing. Something that could never ever possibly destroy us. Mike Glennon!

 

[ISWThunder]

I've watched the gif a couple dozen times and still am not convinced of that. But even so, they got screwed because if the call had been made in real-time, they probably would have been able to get one more play off.

He was definitely down. It's just unfortunate that the refs didn't see it in real time.

Obviously it would be super hard to do on purpose in the moment, but this is a weird case where Tate would benefit from slightly bobbling the ball as he's going to the ground. Happened to Tyreke Hill last year. He appeared to be stopped short on the final play against Denver (I think) but replay showed that he didnt have full control of the ball until after he was in the endzone.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Football is a trash sport and you people should feel bad for watching it.

I most certainly will not be watching the Pats beat the Panthers 70-5

 

[Walter White Walker]

C'mon Seahawks, if you guys fuck this one up that'll be really pathetic.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Bring it Dega!!

 

[Hickbilly Deluxe]

Detroit in Minnesota. Battle for control of the north. Should be a good one.

 

[harSon]

The Destructor is coming. Glennon the Traveler, the Destroyer.

Go Bears!

Two wins since 2014. Both against Pittsburgh. FML.

god damn that brady throw is just gorgeous

what a legend

But the Packers are still going to be in first place after Thursday?

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

They wouldn't be able to get the line set in only 8 seconds.

Yes please reinstate him so he can test positive for marijuana for the 10th time and get a lifetime ban already

Cam should put up good numbers this week. Everyone else has on this Pats D.

The only way this could be worst for lion fans was if they ruled it correctly and in the excitement he spiked the ball.... That would have made Detroit go nuts....

 

[Bronx-Man]

Always a fun week when there's a NFC North division game, and this week we got two! Nice.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Did someone check the air pressure in the ball after that Brady throw?

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

https://twitter.com/Lions/status/912074133219012608

Doing it once a year ago in a completely different situation doesn't mean much.

 

[BaltimoreLarry]

If Bionic still cared about football, I'd tell him the Ravens are gonna whoop that ass, but he's out now.

Apparently there are petitions around Baltimore to take down Ray Lewis' statue in Baltimore.

Kneeling is what prompted the petition, not.....other......things.

 

[TheCochese]

Yeah, there's no telling what would have happened in the confusion.


Anyway, I liked my OT title better. Go Steelers, except that chucklefuck running the offense.

 

[jello44]

NO

FUN

LEAGUE

Hopefully Von doesn't pull a comedy act that the refs don't like this game.

 

[Fox318]

jets actually fucked the fraud ass fish

 

[Dishwalla]

Speaking of Von Miller I see he has lost some endorsement deal with a chain of car dealerships after his participation in the protests.

http://www.totalprosports.com/2017/...-ads-being-pulled-after-anthem-protest-video/

Still bullshit, but it's good that it's just some dumbass car dealership and not something like Old Spice.

[Compbros]

Doing it once a year ago in a completely different situation doesn't mean much.

The point being they didn't even get the chance. By the time he was touched and down there were about 9-10 seconds on the clock and they had about 4 yards to cover.

https://youtu.be/LfZ8Z0fZtXs?t=21s


Highly doable but because of the call it's like "we were wrong, you lose".

 

[yankeehater]

This should be a nice easy win for the Eagles. Losing cox sucks but the chargers are bad and it should be a very pro-Eagles crowd.
