Generic NFL Week 1 Games Thread September 9-14

[LionJim]

Games start tonight!

This is for the non-Eagles games. There will be a separate “Commanders crush Eagles, LionJim rejoices” thread.

Also, I personally would love it if someone set up a stand-alone Steelers game thread. These are the Steelers, ffs, six Lombardi Trophies.

Patriots-Seahawks 8:20 Wednesday, NBC

49ers-Rams 8:30 Thursday, on Netflix (ugh, I got Netflix but much prefer the regular cable channels).

 

[BobPSU92]

Are any lsu players suiting up tonight?

 

[LionJim]

49ers-Rams is being played in Melbourne. Aaron Donald will not suit up for LAR.

 

[LionJim]

Some talking head this morning said Drake Maye will win MVP. Huh.

 

[Nitt1300]

Are any lsu players suiting up tonight?

for what?

 

[BobPSU92]

for what?

For the Patriots or Seahawks. Get some NFL experience to take back to Baton Rouge.

 

[SleepyLion]

For the Patriots or Seahawks. Get some NFL experience to take back to Baton Rouge.

There was a time when that would have been considered so ridiculous that no one could have thought of it.

 

[LionJim]

The last fifteen minutes of the pregame show: deadly.

 

[BobPSU92]

Seattle’s stadium looks like a tunnel. No wonder it has the reputation for being very loud.

 

[LionJim]

A good game, 9:00 left in 2Q. Darnold is out.

 

[Efejle]

Jesus Drew Lock sucks. I mean he really sucks. What an incredible drop between your first and second QB
.

I don't think he's been that bad--a lot of teams have backups that are MUCH worse

Yes, Lock’s 3rd-and-22 pass for 21 yards was as good as it gets.

 

[SleepyLion]

Do any of the 4 QBs on PIT's roster end up in Seattle?

 

[KingLando]

Do any of the 4 QBs on PIT's roster end up in Seattle?

LOL my brother just sent me a text asking the same thing--I think Lock is better than those 4 right now.

 

[SleepyLion]

LOL my brother just sent me a text asking the same thing--I think Lock is better than those 4 right now.

But who is Lock's backup?
If the price was right I would trade anyone of them... but the price would have to be right.

 

[KingLando]

Tomlin says a nothing but says a lot of words--nothing has changed from his coaching days

 

[KingLando]

But who is Lock's backup?

That's a good point if this is a long term injury. I'm like 95% it's Jalen Milroe so they might want a Mason type

while there will be a Birds - Commanders thread, I can assure you that the Subject line of the thread will not be what you indicated.

but thanks for the non-Birds Week 1 NFL thread!

 

[KingLando]

Suddenly Lock is outplaying Maye
Though that Doubs drop was horrific

 

[rudedude]

Some talking head this morning said Drake Maye will win MVP. Huh.

 

[BobPSU92]

maye is awful.

 

[KingLando]

Maye had a night to forget--yikes

 

[rudedude]

Drake Maye 3 interceptions, MVP material for sure!

 

[rudedude]

 

[LionJim]

I caught Maye’s final interception on replay this morning. I am hard pressed to find a more inept pass by a NFL quarterback. That was brutal.

Fixed, ffs, as per Tom’s implied request. #subjectlinesmatter

 

[Lil Nicky Scarfo]

Maye had a night to forget--yikes

With Brown hurt, we won’t see the inevitable implosion due to Maye’s ineptness for at least a few weeks

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

With Brown hurt, we won’t see the inevitable implosion due to Maye’s ineptness for at least a few weeks

Maye may be the best player for the Steelers next week .

 

[rudedude]

WTF is going in with Michael Irvin’s hair? Looks like someone put blackened party favor spirals on his head!

 

[LionJim]

Irvin’s hair has been that way since the day he met Ray Isom.

 

[LionJim]

AJB out for “at least four weeks.”

 

[rudedude]

Rams exposed, Garrett 0 tackles. After that performance…..

[Knickslions69]

Puka Nacua had more tackles than Miles Garrett did last night.

 

[BobPSU92]

McVay is an idiot.

Shanahan, McVay brush off travel plans as factor in Niners' win over Rams

Though many Niners players applauded the team's decision to travel to Melbourne a week in advance, Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay said they didn't think the Niners' and Rams' different arrival times factored into San Francisco's 27-7 win.

Crap. If I'd known that, I would've bet big on Niners. I flew from Boston to Seoul recently and it took me a full week before I was feeling 100%. My teenage kids to less time but the next day they were still a little out of it.

 

[LionJim]

Bump. Happy First Sunday of the NFL Season!
