Reason I'm asking and I'm thankful but as a Bears fan in Indy when Colts are home it automatically means other station doesn't carry games. This week we get Colts on Fox at 1 and Bears on CBS at 1 as well. Thankful but curious. I am keeping an eye on that right now myself out of South Bend and Fort Wayne. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least in Ft Wayne, the Colts’ game is on Fox instead of CBS like they normally are. Local CBS May have opted for the closest game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had a game on other network when Colts were at home. Maybe just NFL taking advantage of extra tv....or lifting the blackout or whatever coverage.

You can't make excuses for injuries but ignore how good the team around him was in his one and only elite level; Jared Goff looked pretty good one year in a similar situation. I really don't think anyone outside of an Eagles fan would put Wentz on the level of anyone you mentioned aside from Dak. In no order, an I complete list of guys I'd take over him in the year 2020: Mahomes Brady Brees Ryan Jackson Wilson Murray Watson Big Ben Rodgers Guys I think he is grouped with that all, including Wentz could move up to the next group: Dak Cousins Stafford Allen Newton Garapolo Then there is a handful of guys I think that could catch Wentz that are either young or have shown talent but are in better situations now a la Carr, Goff, Tannehill, and some rookie and second year guys. I guess what I'm saying is that while he's got game, in today's NFL I think he's pretty average. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to get a feel for what I saw yesterday. A mix between really good play and really bad and a ton of injuries in between. Always nice to have football back. My Bears are 2-0 and honestly have nothing else nice to say on that.

Seeking6 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I'm sure others saw this stat. Falcons are first team since 1933 to score 39 points, have zero turnovers and lose a NFL game. Up to this point others 440-0. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they would never admit but that looked like a team that didn't understand the rules of an onside kick yesterday. They looked like they thought they had to wait for the ball to go 10 yards before pouncing on it. I'm not a fan of in season firings but Quinn and Adam Gase might change my mind this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the Colts game...I came away with that one saying the Vikes have some serious issues. I sure as hell hope nobody here had Cousins on their fantasy team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikings are one of only 5 teams since merger and first since 2005 to run 50 plays or less in first two weeks. Maybe letting Diggs walk wasn't the best idea?

The man may not be all that likeable, but Bill Belichik may be the greatest coach in the history of team sports. Yes, he benefitted from having Tom Brady, but Brady benefitted just as much from Belichick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love when I see coaches adjust their play calling to the personnel they have. Kind of like what Reich did yesterday. TY Hilton on field 25 less snaps than Pittman. Why? Pittman is a very good blocking WR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FritzIam4IU Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 So I'm not sure if that was a touchdown catch by Robinson or not...but I don't understand how the refs overturned it either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
