wvParticipantIn spite of the Expert rankings and predictions for the 49ers, their fan base is very much “wait-and-see.” They are not buying into the hype, seems to me.
Dunno if you saw the game-winning touch-down pass by Purdy but i think it was the most pathetic game winning TD pass i have ever seen in my life. Should have been picked. He should have had three INTs in that game including the game-losing-pass.

These 4 Titans need to get healthy before it derails their 2025 season
The Tennessee Titans can’t afford injuries to these 4 players
by Justin Melo
https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/tennessee-titans-news/61501/these-4-titans-need-to-get-healthy-before-it-derails-their-2025-season“…Right tackle JC Latham suffered a hip injury at practice a few weeks ago. The Titans claimed it was a non-issue. Well, it was an issue, because Latham re-aggrevated the hip injury and was forced to exit the contest. Oli Udoh was truly abysmal in his place, and the Titans’ offensive line could be totally derailed if the sophomore blocker is forced to miss time…”
wvParticipantDerrick Henry 18 carries 170 yards.

#Ravens RB Derrick Henry was so dominant in high school that if his team went up by 21 points, the principal made a rule that he couldn’t play in the game anymore…The principal did not want Henry to embarrass the other schools.
Derrick Henry. 1921 yards last year. 5.9 yard average. People got so enamored with Saquon that Henry’s year kinda got lost.
w
vwvParticipantJust watched the ravens v bills highlights. Man, it looked like the Ravens were totally outclassing the Bills for about nine tenths of that game. Derrick Henry 18 carries 170 yards.
But no.
Game that surprised me the most, I suppose was Packers v Lions. I thought the Lions would win that one.

vSeptember 8, 2025 at 9:57 am in reply to: Texans game: tweets, plays, highlights, media commentary #157869wvParticipantThe defense was just so impressive. CJ Stroud is a topnotch QB. Solid win. I thought they might lose that first one.
And Stafford looked better than i expected, against what some folks think is a top-5 defense.
That was a war. Reminded me of the 70s.
w
vwvParticipantThat was a very big win. Two pretty evenly matched playoff-caliber teams.
Very physical game. This aint a finesse team.
Puka and Devante are physical-beasts.Also an important Falcon loss. I believe the Rams have their first pick, yes?
w
vwvParticipantFrom what i read, about SIX new teams make the playoffs in the NFL every year. Each year is different but thats the average.
Now if you understand deep-algebra, that means, the Rams will go undefeated and win the Super Bowl.

wvParticipantStafford is probly a ‘borderline’ hall of fame guy right now. Its close. But if he gets to no.5 alltime in passing yards, i would think that would nudge him over the line.
w
vwvParticipantWas covering the Colts until this morning. Before that, the Lions and Bears. Bounced around the league with lousy teams. The guy’s a journeyman.
Seems like he’s probably just a camp body until Jourdan comes back.
He’s ‘fired up’, ‘thrilled’, and ‘pumped.’
They replaced Rodrigue with a cheerleader.
w
vwvParticipant“Coaches across the league view pairings such as Andy Reid and Steve Spagnuolo in Kansas City… as models for success. Having an established, veteran defensive coordinator who was once a head coach can help a team in a number of ways, especially if the current head coach calls offensive plays…”
Well, yeah. That would be nice.
Whats the longest McVay has had a particular OC or a DC ?
w
vwvParticipant“….Verse said Thursday. “Just watching everything I’ve done wrong and everything I’ve done right. And you realize how many bad plays you had with all the accolades and all that stuff. You realize how much [more] you can grow. And, don’t let your head get too high because now, I’m thinking of how much better I can get. People are like, ‘oh, you’re good, you’re good.’ No, I’ve got so much farther to go.”
——–Well, that is exactly what you want to hear from any young player. It ‘ought’ to be the norm, but, ya know, theeze-kids-today….
w
vwvParticipantI would love to know the corporate process they use for choosing colors and styles. Do they do focus groups with color-blind teenagers?
I KNOW they dont consult the old folks. I guess we arent the ones who buy jerseys and shit. I dunno.
w
vwvParticipantLooks like Jerry thought he had an oral agreement with Micah for a certain price. But the deal wasnt finalized and Micah’s agent was not involved. Then, some defender signed for more money. And i guess, Micah then wanted more, since the oral deal was not finalized and jerry was dragging things out, etc. So Jerry thought Micah was breaking the deal, and Micah thought jerry was being a weasel.
At any rate, Cowboys get two first rounders and the Packers go all-in.
And neither is going to win the NFC.

vwvParticipantwvParticipantI agree with what J.Rodrigue said in some vid i saw. “The rams raised their floor” with all the patching in of players this season.
She did not say they raised their ceiling. I’d guess the Eagles and Lions and Ravens and Chiefs have higher ceilings, but who knows.
NFC West looks like a complete mystery to me. Nothing would surprise me, other than the Cardinals winning the West.

Thats a big loss. Mixon is still a beast. Underrated player, imho.
w
vAugust 26, 2025 at 5:00 pm in reply to: Texans at Rams, 9/7, 4:25 et 1:25 pt … w/ broadcast map #157664wvParticipantAccording to Bucky Brooks, the Texans have a top3 Defensive front, and a top2 secondary.
https://www.nfl.com/news/ranking-nfl-s-top-three-defensive-lines-secondaries-in-25-giants-loaded-up-front-texans-make-both-listsThat sounds pretty good to me.
w
vwvParticipant“teams overvalue the present and high first rounders” ?
wvParticipantwvParticipantRegarding the vid up there, showing players downing-punts inside the two yard line. This is a pet-peeve of mine. I ab-so-fucking-lutely HATE it when special teams botch this play. Its just not that hard a play to make. And it can be a huge play. And players botch it all the time.
And i dont understand why.
w
vAugust 22, 2025 at 7:36 am in reply to: 70s Rams: The Forgotten Defense That Crushed Everyone… #157604wvParticipantYeah, great defenses. Sigh.
1972 – Merlin Olsen, Larry Brooks, Coy Bacon, Jack Youngblood. Not bad.w
vwvParticipantI think the Chargers had the better Uniforms in this one. Sad to say it, but i have to be honest.
I blame the offensive coordinator and Carroll Rosenbloom.
w
vwvParticipantI wonder if D.Adams would have come to LA, had he known about this situation.
w
vwvParticipantIt’s only one game, but in my opinion, Bennett looked like a good NFL backup. It was his apparent confidence/decisiveness that does it for me. If he looks the same that for two more games then he makes his case to be a number two quarterback in this league. If they keep him on the team this year I think it gives them additional options for next year.
I dunno. I just dont see any top-notch physical tools. His release isnt lightning fast, he’s not particularly quick, his arm talent just looks average…. I dunno. I guess McVay knows what he’s doing. Hard for me to fathom that SB is the best they can find.
w
vwvParticipantI liked what i saw from the RB, Schrader. I’m not a believer in Corum. I will have to keep my eye on Schrader.
Stetson made one impressive throw, but other than that, I wasnt impressed. I mean, he did fine, but i still dont know why he’s on the team. I dont think he’s very good.
I thought the OLine was the actual story of the game. Played well.
Dallas did not look good in that game. I’m not sure why.
w
vwvParticipantPaul Thomas Anderson. Dunno if it will be any good, but its Paul Thomas Anderson.
wvParticipantThe Baker vid is a classic.
Its interesting how many players have praised McVay. It just seems to be a consensus among NFL players that he’s a great guy to work with.
And then….there’s the Goff thing. Multiple truths, as Rodrique likes to say.
w
vwvParticipantI am alarmed.
The combination of Stafford’s condition, and the OLine issues (and playing the Texans and Eagles defenses early) just spell D-O-O-M to me. I dont think optimism is reasonable at this point.
