NFL Preseason Discussion

Live is definitely better. But I’m getting it to watch games I otherwise wouldn’t see at all, so it’s not an issue.

I signed up for the free trial last night, and it works well on my PC (which uses a 40" TV as a monitor), so I’ll keep it. I especially like the condensed games, which allowed me to watch the games I wanted to see from weeks 1 and 2 in just a couple of hours (helped by the fact that I stopped watching when they pulled the starters early). My thanks to the guys who recommended it.

I’m not so heavily invested (pun unintended) in Gamepass. Of course, it helps that I haven’t had a local team other than the Chargers to root for in over two decades. I’m fine with watching compressed games later on, even if I already know the outcomes. It’s more like watching game tape for me, for use in fantasy later on. Think of me as the Cris Collinsworth of fantasy.

And I look a little bit like him, too. :smiley:

And in a completely unrelated topic, could the Bears possibly look any worse? I realize it’s only a preseason game, but it’s the preseason game, and the Chiefs are making them look like a hot mess. There are only so many times I can watch their receivers drop balls.

Just been informed that Romo has a broken bone in his back and could be out 2 months

How can someone be so stupid to scramble in a preseason game. Romo was that dumb?

Yet another season of inept, incompetent Cowboys management. This is why you shouldn’t play starters in the preseason! :smack: :smack: :smack: :smack:

And everyone keep saying…we got DAK
Dak has never played in the regular season:smack:

He was starting to slide. You have to get at least a few reps in, this late in the pre-season.

Really, it was a freak accident, but it’s a rough game, and they all know they’re always one play away from a career-ending injury, e.g. Bo Jackson.

Sucks to be a Dallas fan, though.

You don’t leave the pocket in a preseason game

I’m not saying the Cowboys management is ept and competent, but can you name a team that doesn’t play its starters in the preseason? Brady is suspended for the first four regular season games, and I’m pretty sure he knows the playbook and doesn’t have to compete for the starter position, but even he was out there this week.

I bet he was smart enough not to leave the pocket

Brady doesn’t leave the pocket without a shoehorn.

Colin Kaepernick refuses to stand for the National Anthem. If the 49er fans didn’t already hate him, this wouldn’t have endeared him any further to them.

And you posted that because…???:confused:

I realized what it was before it got to the point and closed it. That play always makes me cringe.

The San Antonio newspaper’s headline Saturday morning (from an article taken from the Fort Worth paper) was “Cowboys Dodge a Bullet”.

Welp. Since the Packers made it through Game 3 without a major injury (unlike last year) I can chuckle.

Kaepernick figured out a way to keep from getting cut, with his Black Power gesture. Now, the Niners can’t get rid of him without it looking like retribution.

Well played, Colin.

My friend said she never seen anyone who was controversial who didn’t have talent like Kapernick

Where is Al Michaels???

Since NBC won’t be allowed to have Mike Tirico call Thursday Night Football games this year, I guess this is getting him all the experience he can have until Al retires.

Or Al caught Zika in Rio.
