American Football (NFL)

Looked like maybe the offense was rounding the corner for the first quarter, then the wheels came off for all phases of the game but defense. What a waste of a great D this team is. I think Hackett has to go. Bad play calling, bad discipline, bad execution, bad strategy (trying to freeze the kicker with a late timeout instead of preserving clock was an especially egregious example; punting instead of kicking a long FG that was within McManus' range was another).

At least we have the Avs and the Nuggets, but that was a painful game to watch.

I really struggled with this weeks pick. The obvious pick and the biggest point spread this week is Tampa over Carolina. Carolina fired their coach,and their best receiver Robbie Anderson got traded to Arizona. I just don’t know what’s going on with Brady these days. Seems distracted at times and is starting to look his age. It feels like Dak coming back to the Cowboys is a trap as well. I’m not especially a fan and I would really be mad at myself if Detroit pulled off the upset. The Raiders have been in 5 close games losing to The Chiefs by 1 point. They had a bye week and are my pick to handle the Texans at home.

I’ll take the Jets over the Broncos. Because the Broncos are terrible.

@Matt:

.        Just to make sure…You weren’t picking the Ravens over The Browns?

[Jett129]

I didn't trust Brady,but when Carolina traded Christian McCaffery and the line jumped to 13.5 I thought I should change my pick. So glad I didn't do it! Probably the biggest upset,so far, this season,and @pmadison95 and @steelworker have to be really upset,as the Panthers just crushed them. Big smiles on the faces of @Twistlock and @SKT  as the Cowboys and Bengals get them to next week. Waiting on The Jets/Denver,Raiders/Texans and the Patriots/Bears games.

J.E.T.S. JETS,JETS,JETS,JETS,AND @Alex and @Matt fly into week #8 The Raiders come through for me and I’ll be back next week as well.  And on a side note some Forum Members favorite teams…Ravens,Chiefs and Bengals got the “W” as well.

[Jett129]

Well Da Bears mauled Da Patriots and our good friend @scooter is out. Which leaves @Alex @Matt @Twistlock @SKT and myself heading into week 8. Congrats to Matt on keeping his streak going!

[Alex]

Bengals beat browns this week

[SKT]

Happy with how the Chiefs bounced back from that loss to the Bills. And I’ll take those Bills over the Packers this week.

[Twistlock]

Titans will run over Texans in week 8.

I have to think the Eagles fly over The Steelers off a bye week.

[Matt]

How about Jets over Pats. That’s a weird thing to say.

[Jett129]

Jets had some key injuries,you might want to rethink that?

[mclaincausey]

Pats benched Mac and looked pretty dismal against the lowly Bears tho

[Jett129]

But you really feel like Bellicheck flat out fucking hates The Jets,and will do everything he can to beat them,and in these kind pools I tend to pick away from divisional rivalries.

[Matt]

All good points.  I’ll sleep on it.

Speaking of Brady…. what a complete maroon. Had a chance to got out on top with a remarkable finish, repeating as a champion in his first year with a new team, a death blow to the "it's the system" or "it's Bellichick cheating" arguments, and retire with his supermodel wife who's wealthier than he is and their family.

Instead.... this.

[Jett129]

The only think I can think is that he watched the Super Bowl and he thought if he was in the Super Bowl,he would’ve beaten The Bengals,and it was really eating at him. Only explanation I can come up with,but he’s the only one that knows. Giselle must be sticking pins in a Brady Voodoo doll. But he definitely went to the well one too many times.

[Oaktavia]

He's a cheater. Should have been barred from the NFL when they caught him deflating balls.
