Yeah I watched the whole 2nd half and seen Sony and Akers slip multiple times in the background and had 25 attempts between the two of them. Kupp was targeted 7 times in the game and caught all 7 and had 1 carry for 18 yards. I honestly believe that Kupp is a Jerry rice type talent and the more times he touches the ball the better he and his team would be. Do you believe that the rams would be better off featuring Sony and Akers or Kupp?

Michel has been very effective in recent weeks. Of course the Rams tried to establish a running game. Why wouldn't they? It makes the passing game more effective when it's working. It's easy to say Stafford should have done nothing but passed to Kupp every play, but that's how video games work not real NFL games.

At any rate I'm done with all the bitching and moaning and the conspiracy theories. Cooper Kupp won the Triple Crown, and T. J. Watt tied the all-time sacks record. Who'd have believed it possible at the beginning of the season, certainly not people who have observed the Caste System for a long time. What a great day, I couldn't be happier. All the negativity on what should be a day of celebration is amazing to me.

I'm signing off now, go ahead and continue your bitchfest, I don't want to be associated with it.

Sorry Don but you have to get Kupp the ball a minimum of 10 times. Especially with the All Time NFL Record ever not to mention they Rams are now screwed. They lost
and only won the division due to the Bucs now have the 2 seed over the Rams. The OBJ pass was clearly to Kupp. Then they kept forcing it to OBJ. So many weird things. I'm just
crushed. Incredible year but the record was Kupps. O passes to him in the 3rd quarter and only 1 in overtime which a pass interference kept him from breaking the record. I'm just so angry right now that it's hard to celebrate the 2nd best season ever.

It reminds me of Welker who led the nfl in receiving most of the year but was over taken in the last two weeks. I was crushed back then and more crushed & depressed now!

The biggest reason we are so sad for Kupp is you only get one chance in your career to have a season like this. He will have 1000 yard seasons again but I highly doubt he will ever have a chance again ever at the All Time NFL Single Season Record and a historic 2000 yard season. It was now or never. Bad play calling in the 2nd half & overtime.

Agreed 100%! The historic nature of Kupps season is the problem and 7 targets is unacceptable!

All in all decent results today. Grappolo proved to be the guy for SF. Taysom played great but probably was going to be out for the remainder anyway so much better to watch Kittle in the playoffs anyway. Kupp another great day and Watt tying the record. I believe in the modern era only Rice, Steve Smith, and Kupp have had triple crown receiving titles with Kupps by far the superior year. Playoffs now we get to watch Kupp, Watt, Kittle, Kelce, Brady, Rodgers, Grappalo, Stafford, Allen, and a near miracle in Big Ben.

Derek Carr's numbers won't "dazzle" according to Al Michaels. Carr is 4th in the league in passing yards and the Raiders are in the playoff hunt.

Thought McVay blew the game by not passing on 3rd down at the end of regulation.

But I'm happy with the 49ers win. As a Brady fan it gives the Bucs the #2 seed and keeps the Saints defense out of the playoffs.

Also very happy for Jimmy Garoppolo. He's put himself in good position for a starting job at a QB needy team like Pittsburgh or Washington, if the 49ers want to start the Lance experiment next season.

The Kupp ignorance and the Welker ignorance are to great examples wl. Maybe it it isn’t even intentional on the coaches part or a conspiracy but a issue of the coach’s outsmarting themselves and whites not saying give me the damn ball like Rice or Michael Irvin would. When I said I would “like to beat Mcvey about the head and body with a rubber hose” it was a attempt at humor.

Davis Mills was 23 for 33, 301 yards passing, 3 TDs, 0 INT today. He and Taylor Heinicke both deserve fair consideration to be starters next year. They're not the kind of guys to use for stopgap-then-discard.

Also remember, Mills was up against a very good Titans team fighting for the #1 seed, and the Texans almost won. Glad the Titans won, though, and knocked Kansas City out of the first-round bye. The Chiefs are like the (anti-white) villain that keeps getting up no matter how many times you knock them down. Hopefully they get upset in the wild-card round.

It doesn't help that he has to play the role he has been year in and out. Extra weight and muscle is the biggest reason for injuries IMO. The one time in my life I stretched the most I got the most injuries but it was mainly because I gained a lot of muscle - a good 20 lbs over my natural weight. The injury Hill had today was an aggrevation of one that he got in his swiss army knife role. The concussion earlier in the year was one that every player would have gotten trying to catch one of Jameis many 50/50 moon balls. The play call today was dumb - Hill had just ran the exact play the play before for a 3rd down conversion. He was on fire passing the ball. Why send a QB with multiple injuries on a 1st down plunge play? Dumb.
Hill is best when he improvises. I hate when they call designed run plays for him. If you’re going to do that, line him up at tailback, and we can watch Kamara cry on the sideline...

I'm so angry. First Watt only ties the record and now Kupp falls short. He will finish as the 2nd greatest season ever by a wide receiver. Damn it!
Opportunity like this doesn’t come around often, especially for our guys so I get the disappointment. But It was a great season, and they’re both still relatively young, in their primes. Excited to see these guys next year.

The reality is they didn't need to draft either. Jimmy G is a franchise QB, they could have drafted a developmental guy like Trask or Mills without having to trade away so many picks. Or they could of stayed where they were and drafted Jones. They gave up 2 future 1st round picks (along with the 2021 pick) and a 2022 3rd rounder.

I like Jimmy a lot, and agree he is franchise caliber, but every time you turn around, he’s missing games or has some ailment, so I’m not surprised they brought in some competition. I didn’t think they’d spend such a high draft pick on one, or make such an asinine choice.. should have kept Nick Mullens, or brought in a Semian or someone like that..

Sony has 20 attempts averaging 2.0 per carry. Kupp has 7 attempts. Not right for the best receiver in he nfl
Not arguing the 7 targets, although he was thrown to more than 7 times. One was a Beckam screw up and at least one more was interference. The use of Michel was justified as I said he's averaged 4.3 ypc all season. He has 2.0 ypc in one game and he's to blame. I would say the OL has to share in that as well.
Again, I'm not happy about the 7 receptions, but I think we forget what an amazing thing Kupp has accomplished considering the odds. He's in a league where 99% of the WR's are black and league that's roughly 80% black and coaches that are to their detriment are trying to satisfy a bunch cry baby ego maniac's.
If you think about what just happened with Watt and Kupp it's almost unbelievable in today's NFL.
The man Kupp just won the triple crown of receiving in overcoming astronomical odds from the time he was in HS all the way to the NFL. About a 1 in 1,000,000,000 shot.

I'm super happy about Cooper Kupp. He had a season that was beyond fantastic and clearly showed that he was the best WR in the NFL this year. Hopefully he keeps his foot on the gas on a (long) playoff run all the way to the big game.

I have to be honest - I think T.J. Watt got screwed. He should have had at least 1.5 sacks today, which would have broken the single-season record. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for him and his great season/career, but the single-season sack record is such a huge thing in sports, with the sheer amount of glory that Michael Strahan has gotten out of it (and that ridiculous drama with Favre) - I think Watt legitimately earned it. Not making any accusations of "conspiracy theories" (and I don't think anyone else here did either); the refs just made some bad calls. They're human, they make mistakes. Still, Watt is the football equivalent of Roger Maris.

Watt will get over it in time, so will we. I think it's okay to vent a little.

Yes, Watt and Kupp had great seasons! Watt tied the record and Kupp came close.

The good news is that both of them are fairly young.

Another white player who had a successful season is Braxton Berrios. He showed he was one of the best kickoff and punt returner in the league. Berrios also had a decent season as a receiver. Hopefully, next year, he'll be a starting slot receiver somewhere. I predict he'll excel there.

Pete carol made a surprising comment saying Jordan Brooks and the white Cody Barton are going to be one of the best LB duos in the league soon

Barton finished with 7 tackles and 5 assists today. When he gets to start as he deserves, he will deliver.

Chargers up 14-10 now. Herbert's showing his skills.

The Chargers have a relatively white-friendly defense but I believe no white pass-catchers at all? Not even a tight end, correct me if I'm wrong. That's on the racist, anti-white GM.

Some great games today;
Happy for Big Ben, making one last run, glad they knocked out the miserable Ravens. Steeler D has been fun to watch lately!

Cousins and Tanny put up monster games today.

Rams/9ers was probably one of the best games of the year. Was hoping to see Kupp hit 2000, but knew it was a long shot. Happy for Jimmy G, shutting up the critics.

Hill/Semian led Saints played well. But outside of them and a couple guys here and there, they’re a pretty loathsome roster, so not terribly disappointed to see them left out of the playoffs..

Not sure who I like out of Chargers/Raiders. I hate how the Raiders screwed over Kwiatkowski, Heath, Muse, and Gruden, but I really like the Carr and Renfrow combo. Herbert is a great young QB, but aside from him, nothing to cheer for offensively. Both have an alpha/leader on defense in Bosa and Crosby. In addition, a number of interesting defensive players (Tranquil, Fackrell, Leavitt), but aren’t featured.

I'd slightly prefer to see the Raiders make the playoffs. I do believe the product they put on the field is slightly more white-friendly overall.

Every NFL team is managed by forces that are anti-white to a greater or lesser extent. Raiders management screwed over a lot of our guys but I don't think the Chargers management is morally any better.

The Lions need to get some more pale faces on that team. Goff is 27 years old and can certainly be the franchise QB. Hopefully they don't do something stupid but in the NFL I've come to expect idiocy trump logic.

The Lions will have the #2 overall pick in the draft. If they were smart they'd trade it for as many 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks as they can get to build a strong team around Goff. If they're stupid they'll use their first pick to draft a magical black quarterback with dat upside.

We'll see what they do.

Right now the draft eligible quotas seem to be more hyped up with all the draft "experts" than the NFL. They need their "generational" poly LT 1st round pick from this year to pan out. I think they should target UM DE Aidan Hutchinson at 2nd overall.

Yeah, that’s my only issue with the Chargers. Aside from Herbert, there’s nothing to get excited about on offense..

I think if Fackrell and Tranquil were full time starters, I’d go for the Chargers, then again Renfrow making noise in the playoffs is critical..

Renfrow is a >1,000 yd wide receiver, so we should want him representing in the playoffs as we only have a couple of those a year.
