2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

I'd hold off on that. They've gotten fat on games vs the Dolphins, Jets, and Skins so far. The Steelers have been unimpressive, and the Bills basically lost due to a blocked punt TD.

Sure but I stand by it, Brady's never had this good of a defense backing him before

The Broncos are now looking to get rid of their best WR, E. Sanders. Johnny Boy don't want to win anymore this season. He's a great GM.

Tankeroo time

Wow....Im shocked Brown got that much.

 

[shopson67]

the Donks...

dead in the water...

ESPECIALLY with Joe Sacko back there as the tackling dummy...

Not for long. Lock may be back to practice next week.

Wow....Im shocked Brown got that much.

I guess we'll see if he earns it by returning to his elevated play without Kyrie. I'm not expecting Kemba to distribute the ball much more than Kyrie though...

Is pro-football-ref.com valid? If so team defensive rankings from that site.

In 2001 the Pats D was ranked 6th

In 2003 the Pats D was ranked 1st

In 2004 the Pats D was ranked 2nd

In 2014 the Pats D was ranked 8th

Another bag secured.....

Im stunned. He is a role player. Awful deal if he doesn't significant improve

Another bag secured.....

Lol....all that media posturing.

 

[CitySushi]

Lol....all that media posturing.

Same with Hield. Both got paid. Agents are the real winners here.

I'm just confused.

Even if he had a excellent year, how much more could he have gotten?

Why not let it play out and then match?

Wow.

That's high for JB... but not crazy-pants, irrationally high. Still high, though.

Brown did well for himself. He better play up to that... (because he hasn't played to that kinda $$$ level so far). Not consistently, anyways.

They were both at fault but the thing people on here like to do is blame everything on Russ 1000%

Just like the last 2 years when they got eliminated, everyone just ignored how shitty PG played and put the blame on Russ.

Nothing new to see here

No, no one blames him 1000% for anything (and dt calls tlance extreme guy). But you're sure trying to absolve him of any blame.

I have always said that KD needed to be more assertive about getting the ball. But the lions share of the blame falls on Westbrook. He was the point guard and it was on him to distribute the ball. He didn't. Players, especially players of KD's caliber, shouldn't have to beg for the ball from the guy whose job description is to get it to him.

Maybe PG plays better if he sees the ball more.

 

[trojanfan12]

So you guys really think Russ is stupid enough to not realize his touches would go down?

Sorry but I think Russ is smart enough to know being traded to Houston means his touches will go down and if you paid any attention to preseason, it is pretty clear that is exactly what's going to happen

Lol

When do the Rockets hang their pre-season championship banner? Before the first regular seaskn game? Or do they have to wait until next seasons first pre-season game?

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

These contracts nowadays are absolutely ridiculous

 

[dtgold88]

Warriors also suspended Stephen Jackson for a couple games in the preseason one year. He picked up 5 fouls and a technical in less than 10 minutes.

Warriors ban Jackson 2 games after foul spree

Jordan Bell got suspended by the Warriors last season too for charging shit on Mike Brown's room.

Draymond
Stephen Jackson
Sprewell
Jordan Bell

LOLZ

The "LOLZ" is you used this as a comparison.....Bell is a lesser JAG than Waiters. Jackson was suspended from PRESEASON games. Didn't Spree punch a coach or teammate? Little different than yelling..ya know, that sticks and stones things.

Maybe, but based on the competition, how do you know? And pretty sure NE has had top 5 defenses.

 

[dtgold88]

Wow....Im shocked Brown got that much.

holy crap..me too. Guess Hield was right to want more. He needs a new agent.

 

[bksballer89]

So Zion basically out until Christmas
