the 2014/2015 nfl thread v. R U RDY 4 SUM FOOTBAW?

^ you're a big proponent of judging a team by the strength of the teams it's beating. chargers must be pretty mediocre.

the raiders beat you last year - let's see what happens :)

I think there are going to be some pretty sweet games this week. I had a rough time picking on some of them.

^ nice bills win today.

so the chargers are knocking off the cream of the nfl. first the jags, now the jets. the jets!

alasdair
Let's not forget the hawks and bills and zona loss by one point pretty sure is MVP so far and Oliver ran for like 120 or more yards against a top 5 jets rush d


Woooo
Baby chargers looking good even with 4 strings in
 
The Chargers are good this season but DWE is overrating them based on who they've played so far. Seattle was a great win but I don't think they're good enough to beat top-tier teams consistently. The chances of them advancing past the playoffs isn't great imo. They're due to have a run of bad games here very soon. The Bills probably would have beaten them if Orton was playing. EJ had one of the worst games I've ever seen a QB have.

That's the nice thing about being a Bills fan. My bar is low. Making the first round of the playoffs is a win to me, and I think they can do that. I'm under no delusions that they'll make the AFC championship game.

Patriots unfortunately looked good last night. I'm so psyched for next weeks Pats Bills game. Terry Pegula will be officially made owner this week and the crowd atmosphere at the Ralph should be on par with the Miami game in week 2. Bills fans feel this is the best chance they've had in a long time to beat the Patriots. Our Dline must he salivating.
 
they still need to get Mathis back before the O line will really gel. that was the key last year, all 16 games had the same O line the whole time. that never happens in the NFL, and didnt happen this year, but its all about timing really. they are winning without their continuity so if they get that at the right time, look out

I dont get what Bradley fletcher's fucking problem is. he's always in the right position to make a play he just... DOESNT. like wtf dude, cant coach that shit. get rid of him imo

Nick Foles needs to learn how to fucking slide. evety white QB can do it, learn it bro. you arent getting more yards by diving head first when you dive like a pussy. just fucking slide

Cedric Thornton needs to be on the field more, I know the Rams O line isnt exactly stout but every time they made a play, Thornton was usually involved.

I don't even know what to think about that Rams game, and dont really care. Anyone can beat anyone in the NFL, a W is a W.

there's a post of me saying the Eagles Special Teams would be on point this year. im not gonna go look for it but its there I tell you. I talked shit somewhat on James Casey prior to Sunday and he blocks the first punt of the game

Brandon Boykin, WHERE YOU AT

onto next week
 
Detroit's kicking is embarrassing. Could be 5-0... both losses were from missed field goals

The Lions/Bills game was awesome.. Orton had an amazing game. When he threw that pick 6 to put the lions up 14-0

lol not gonna lie I thought it was over. But then Orton came out after that and just killed Detroit's defense.. He got a lot of help from sammy watkins... fuck he must have had like 3 or 4 incredible catches in that game.

Detroit's offense just isn't the same without Calvin Johnson either. but golden tate is a fucking beast. He has the funniest celebrations to lol.


Good game by the bills, but yeah I still think they got extremely lucky that Detroit's kicker went 0-3 on field goals.

yep - your D looks great. everybody (except me :) ) expected the bengals to destroy the pats this week...

game next week is for sole ownership of the afc east lead. should be a great game.

Chargers Centers go down like flies. Geeze. Doug Legursky, who the Bills cut as a guard because he's terrible, was their 3rd starting Center placed on season ending IR after this weekend. Phillip Rivers is going to have a hell of a time avoiding pressure here on out. I don't even think they have anyone else to put in there. They're going to have to call up a practice squad Center maybe?
 
how you move up by beating the jets i don't know. the jets!

but, ok, dwe, brag about your guy beating the 14th ranked pass defense in the game...

enjoy your moment :)

Power Rankings are retarded. They currently have the Bills ranked behind the Bears(who they beat on the road), the Lions(who they beat on the road), and the Dolphins(who they annihilated at home). I'm sure they'll have us ranked behind the Patriots after we beat them this Sunday too.

This is the last easy game the Chargers will have before facing KC and Denver, so enjoy it now DWE. They've had literally the easiest 3 game schedule in the entire league weeks 3-6.
 
a trap game is when somebody knows their team might get beaten by a shitty team and have to admit that their team isn't as great as they think it is so they hedge their bets ahead of time by calling it a "trap" game?

yep. it's a trap game.

you were talking shit last year about the raiders and they beat the chargers...

not saying it's necessarily going to happen again but pride before the fall and all that :)

I don't think I've been this psyched for a game in a long, long time. Bills v. Pats is shaping up to be a REALLY good game. Both teams know how much is at stake, they're both going to play like men possessed. If you saw Tom Brady's interview this week, he said something like "If you like football, you're going to want to watch what's about to go down in Orchard Park this Sunday."

-Division game
-Winner takes sole possession of the AFC East lead
-The Bills feel they've finally turned the corner and want to be respected. The road to respect goes through the Patriots.
-The Patriots want to prove they still have it and that their bad start to the season was a fluke.

This game, even though it's only week 6, is probably going to set the tone for the entire season in the AFCE. I think whoever wins will probably end up winning the div. What are your thoughts on the game ali? Feeling good? Feeling bad?
