Preseason kicks off this week with week 1 a little over a month away. Will TB12 take the Bucs back or will Mahomes and the Chiefs get revenge? Or will neither team make the Superbowl and Aaron Rogers gets another ring? Can't wait for the season to kick off.

DingoSeanIts also just what ESPN has done. Disney sucks, but ESPN itself hasnt adapted whatsoever - to the point where disney itself is kinda over it.

The main culprit is zero authenticity.


The authenticity part boils down to production, which may have been slacking before but Disney decided "we gotta be more edgy for current society" and they followed the lead of all the other popular "news" media and its fucking stupid. I could produce better sports television than whoever they got making the calls right now, altho I assume these experienced producers are puppets for the higher ups.

Oh my god the NFL's nightmare might ACTUALLY happen... Steelers won. Colts LOST LOL.

Raiders... Chargers... Please play for a 0-0 tie. PLEASE do it.

This would be the greatest thing I have ever seen happen in the NFL.

The amount of salt being thrown around would be enough the poison the soil. DO IT.

I normally don't give a fuck about NFL but I am absolutely here for the abyss of ultimate bullshit that week 18 NFL has become.



If only the Raiders and Chargers just decide to handshake-tie... ooof *chefs kiss*



I still cannot get over the Colts losing to Jacksonville... They should seriously just fire everyone and everything and possibly just move the team to another continent out of straight up embarrassment..

I'd also like to take this time to laugh at the Ravens who went from having the best record in the AFC to losing 6 games in a row to limp onto the golf course.

Even funnier to me is that 5 of them were losses by less than 3 points.

The jags absolutely demolished the colts and have the last 5 years or something crazy. I hate the ravens but they did get the injury bug this year. But then again so did the titans and they just took the 1 seed.

They have not lost to the colts in Jacksonville since like 2014 I guess.

Still, if there was ever a year to break that trend for indiana, this was it, and they fell so flat on their face.

They sure did. The old Carson Wentz we all know showed up and showed out. His best days went with his ACL before the super bowl.

Not only lose it but get absolutely smacked. I was watching the Steelers game but the highlights looked terrible. Jags dominated all 3 phases.

Honestly I figured the raiders kicker would shank it somewhat purposely. A gentleman’s agreement, if you will. But maybe having the pressure off he’s just like I am kicking this ball into next Tuesday 🤷‍♂️

I honestly thought he was going to shank it on purpose too. You could read the lips of Herbert on the sideline saying we should just tie hahaha

I guess I'm more competitive.
Same division right?
You want to bury the mfs cuz that's what they want to do to you
You want to win cuz you're paid to win
You want the best seed for next opponent.

You spend a game beating on the mf across from you and then someone says let's tie???
You then beat THAT mf.

Oh my god, if both teams had just done this all game...

play it into field goal territory, play ultra conservative and stall out the drive...

and then just shank field goal after field goal frustrating everyone watching the game the whole entire time.

It would have been so so glorious and I regret that we were not given such a beautiful thing to see..

idk if I'd say that, stubborn maybe but hes been going for 4th downs in bad spots all year, and if you look at the stats it works in the team's favor in most cases.

Every season the NFL is full of horrible terrible games of terribleness. Borderline unwatchable games even for the most diehard fans of the teams involved... Games where all you can do is just fucking laugh at how bad it is.

What's the difference between the Chargers and Raiders deliberately shanking field goals for straight up laughs for the whole game, and what happened when Heinz Field was turned into a giant mud pit and the game nearly ended 0-0... or better yet, a game where one team runs up a cricket score on the other and it's over by halftime?

In our scenario... two teams shake hands to play for a tie... and both teams have to TRY to not score... while making it LOOK like they are trying to win... That adds up a whole new kind of interesting... because what if ONE guy decides to take it for a touchdown, and now the other team feels like the pact has been broken, then we could see war declared in REAL TIME. We get to see what's effectively a cold war the whole game... where just one rogue general pushing the button on the nuclear missile could open the floodgates to mutually assured destruction...

How fuckin cool is that? Seeing the tactics and the teams fighting with teammates to maintain discipline in a whole new way... my god, it would be the most beautiful dance I've ever seen.

and seeing as this is a spectator sport, and the athletes are out there at the end of the day to dance for their dollar, seeing a hilarious mockery of the game where two teams have to try to mud-bowl it up? Absolutely glorious...

it would be... THE GREATEST GAME
