NFL 2022/23 season

[princekwekua]

Geno Smith is leading NFL in pass percentage (73.1%). And Seahawks at 6-3 leading NFC West. Never saw those coming.

Colts owner Jim Irsay fired head coach Frank Reich and replaced him with Jeff Saturday who has never coached above high school level. Then the "illustrious" Saturday appointed someone named Parks Frazier as playcaller. Parks has never performed his new role at any level. But Reich was the officiant of Frazier's wedding in 2021 when his assistant married Caroline Cann, a Colts team reporter. Also adding a strange twist to Frazier's background: In 2019, Frazier's home in Indianapolis was riddled with bullets by eight gunmen. No one was home, and no one was harmed. The case turned out to a mistaken identity situation. Something stronger than weed is being ingested in Indy lol

With Brady the GOAT performing heroics against the Rams, the 9:30 am Sunday game of Bucs-Seahawks in Munich should be a hell of a game. Cant wait

I don't think it's Reich's fault that they haven't had a legit QB for the last 4 years.

With the Bucs (21) and Seahawks (16) game winding down, a section of the crowd broke out in "Take me home Country roads by John Denver." It was a heck of a game and an outstanding atmosphere in Munich. The crowd didnt want to disperse after the game. Awesome. 45 year old Tom Brady may play for another 5 years. Incredible!

Only seen the last 2-3 minutes of the Bills game. That was a nail biter for sure.

GO FISH!!!!!! First place in the east.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is what the Bills did yesterday. Vikings down 23-27 with few seconds to go failed to convert 4th and go on 1 yard line. Bills fumbled as they attempted to run ball out and Vikings recovered in end zone for touchdown. Vikings 30-27 Bills. Josh Allen drives Bills to field goal range and then throws an interception. Game over. That was his 4th interception in the red zone last two games. Great QB but boneheaded?

It was a good game to watch and that last quarter and OT were thrilling.

I thought it was over when the Bills made that goal line stand.

Allen's last throw in OT was brutal. He has a knack of making really bad throws at crucial times (last throw in the Miami game).

Before this game I thought the Bills were still the AFC favorite and the Vikings were pretenders. Now my thoughts have reversed. The Bills are no longer the favorite and the Vikings are a team to be reckoned with.

Allen is a good QB who fumbles alot and believes all of the media hype about him.

Chiefs are the class of the AFC until another team knocks them off in the playoffs.

4th & 18. Kirk Cousins to Justin Jefferson. One of the greatest catches of all time. Simply amazing

4th & 18. Kirk Cousins to Justin Jefferson. One of the greatest catches of all time. Simply amazing

Leaping high into sky and backwards too, arm outstretched as far as physiology allows, grabs the ball in one hand in the sky with the Bills defender having both his hands also on it. Then the onehanded Jefferson wrestles and wrests the ball away from the twohanded defender as they both are tugged back by gravity to the turf. Jefferson secures the catch.

Better than OBJ's because:

1) It was a do or die play whereas OBJ's was not.
2) He had to wrestle one handed with the defender who had two hands on the ball from sky to turf.
3) The sheer unbelievable wonder of JJ's catch was greater than OBJ's.

However, just a notch below the Greatest Catch of All Time, "The Helmet Catch" by the Giants David Tyree, when taking into consideration all the factors because:

1) The drama of the play in which the Helmet Catch occurred included Eli Manning amidst a manic NE pass rush, miraculously escaping the clutches of a NE sack, scrambling around and tossing a lob into midair, midfield with seemingly hardly a Giant receiver in view.
2) The sheer miraculous wonder of the Helmet Catch is a notch above JJ's catch, to wit:

David Tyree suddenly appears into view along with NE defender Rodney Harrison, both jump into the air, Tyree in front Harrison in back. Tyree grabs the ball one handed and secures it to back of his helmet while Harrison has two hands on the ball. They both start falling wrestled each other to earth, 3 hands and a helmet on the ball. Hitting the turf together, one hand somehow, inexplicitly securing the ball to the back of the helmet with Harrison's two hands still trying to wrest the ball or knock it away. Play ends, Tyree makes the catch.

3) The setting and set up of the Helmet Catch was many factors above JJ's catch because:

It was the SB, It was the lowly 17point underdog Giants against the 18-0 Patriots, arguably the greatest team in history till the end of this game. It was late. late in the game, a game the Giants never should have been in, nor a game in which they bedeviled and outplayed the Patriots throughout. It was late in the game and most likely the last Giant drive of the game with NE leading 14-10. It was 3rd and long, it was a collapsing pocket, it was a "how did Manning escape the clutches of a sure sack", it was Manning scrambling around crazily, it was Manning tossing, no lobbing up a hope and a prayer into midair into midfield, it was the nobody Tyree rising up in the air against the all-pro Harrison; and the rest you all know what happened.

4) In conclusion, the answer is quite evident what the greatest catch of all time is.

The degree of difficulty of the JJ catch was slightly higher than the Helmet Catch is my opinion. However, given that Eli was able to escape the clutches of the defenders and that it was the SB with less than 2 minutes to play and his team behind the mighty Pats, I agree with you that the Helmet Catch is the GCOAT

Bucs vs Seahawks. Allianz Stadium in Munich. Bucs leading 14-3 in 3rd Quarter. This was the very moment Bucs decided on a trick play with Brady as receiver. He slipped and ball was intercepted. On top of that, Brady got a 15-yard penalty for tripping. But according to Brady, "If I dont slip that's Randy over the top for 6." Hilarious

Bucs going to Super Bowl. Tough defense, Fournette running the ball, Brady in fine shape and the Eagles exposed brutally yesterday against the average Commanders, I am saying the Bucs are going to the Super Bowl from the NFC. No question!

The highlight of week 10 was that Bills Vikings game. Two of the best WR's in football showing off. Jefferson with the edge over Diggs. But damn that Diggs one handed catch was a sight to behold.
Was really impressed with the Redskins last night. They were +10.5 and won outright over the previously undefeated Eagles. Heinecke isn't a bad QB, their running game is solid with Robinson and Gibson and McLaurin at WR is one of the best in the league as far as I'm concerned. This week they will be getting Chase Young back, making that front 4 even more formidable.
Shock of the week for me was the depleted Packers upsetting the Cowboys in OT. Screwed me on a couple bets.

He never would have caught the ball if the defender didn't help keep the ball in Jeffersons hand. If he swats it away instead of trying for the interception it would have been incomplete.

Touche! Very good.

I have listened to commentary galore about the play in question and not once did I hear the talking heads and celebs mention this most likely of scenarios.

Then why is nobody offering me a job?

The defender had 2 hands on the ball and it was cradled into the palm of Jefferson's one palm. He could have just flipped it forward.

Have to admit I was surprised with the ass kicking the Browns put on the Bengals. I still think Cincy will be in the playoffs as every team has one of those games.

Very disappointed with the Bengals this year. I knew opposing teams would be more prepared for them this year, but didn't think they would be this bad. The offensive line was supposed to be much improved. I don't see that.

and game would have been over. i saw same way, just knock the ball away. 4th down, game over.

I think they're starting to play more consistently and they should be getting Chase back in the next week or two They dominated the Steelers in the 2nd half yesterday. They're faring much better than their opponents in last years SB. Amazing the difference one year can bring.

Whack-a-mole touchdown celebration by Cowboys on Thursday against Giants was hilarious. Not too long ago, this type of celebration would have drawn unsportsmanlike conduct penalty lol. The game drew 42 million viewers!
