Random NFL talk

Who would've guessed that the first flex schedule change would've been to move Baker's Bucs into a better time slot on 10/15?

The other late games currently look pretty awful:
1-3 Patriots @ 1-3 Raiders.
1-3 Cardinals @ 2-2 Rams.
4-0 Eagles @ 1-3 Jets.

I can see the desire for:
3-1 Lions @ 3-1 Buccaneers.

We'll get the damn Jets game regardless here. It's a curse to get force-fed Giants and Jets games. Thank you Red Zone Channel....

I can understand all views. TV accommodates their local audience and other fans can go whistle. Those fans can pay through the nose for YouTube or stream illegally. However as a Rams fan you'll know that most of the Rams games will be on FOX, (as the Week 6 game vs the Cardinals will be). You have the option to set your VPN to Los Angeles and watch the game legally on foxsports dot com for free through the internet. There's nothing to stop you connecting your internet device to a tv through a HDMI lead, which is what I do. For those that don't have a paid VPN I recommend ProtonVPN's free VPN product which provides servers in 6 or 7 US cities. Streaming instructions here:

They are local in name only. They play 330 miles away in NJ. Pittsburgh and Cleveland are closer. Doesn't help that those NJ teams have been bad for a considerable amount of time. In general, we get way too much coverage of NYC sports teams. At least the blackout rules have changed, as we used to be included in the blackout area for the Bills, even though we're 80 miles from the stadium.

I'm pretty anti-NYC on a lot of topics lol.

What a F'ing mess lol

Can we call Chris Simms an “ex-QB”? He’s an epic failure as an NFL player.

For real.

What a F'ing mess lol

Long way to go...

Can't believe the Steelers would be the 3 seed and the Colts the 5 seed. Just wow.

Jimmy Garoppolo keeps getting misplaced praise for being a "winner"

I've got no issue with Jimmy Garoppolo.

www.nbcsports.com

"Despite his record of wins and losses, he’s viewed within the league as a bottom-third quarterback."

Damn, that's a harsh take on Jimmy. Not saying it's wrong.

@DJ , thoughts on this?

I am on record as never wanting us to move on from Carr.

*Sigh*

I kinda think that's more about teams blanketing Lamb and the other WR's not really doing enough to get defenses off of that. We will see what happens but the Cowboys need Gallup and Cooks to be a little more consistent and McCarthy scheming up some better looks. Not sure if the latter will happen though.

Yep, could be more about the play-calling change this season than Dak or Lamb (and especially Jerrah). If they're letting the owner affect play calling, sheesh.
