2018 NFL Week 10

[Thrashen]

Cooper Kupp is having a decent game; 5 catches for 39 yards in the first half.

Midway through the third quarter in the Oakland game, Jordy has 0 catches. He has been targeted once.

Jordy left with a thigh injury.

 

[Don Wassall]

Jordy's returned to the game, but continues to be studiously ignored by Carr. The way he and Hogan have been completely phased out of their offenses ranks as maybe the biggest downer of the season.

 

[Truthteller]

As Don mentioned earlier their struggles are probably more due to force feeding the ball to Gordon rather than spreading it around to the other playmakers. Gronk has been out the past two weeks as well which no doubt will cause the offense to struggle. The Patriots have done a terrible job setting themselves up for life after Brady though.

The media, particularly ESPN, will over-hype Gordon's game today, the same way they over-hype so many NBA scrubs.

For example, ESPN will generally only post point totals in basketball recaps. But almost always omit shooting percentage. So, Carmelo Anthony might have many 30 point nights, but overall he usually shoots 10-27 from the field and his team typically loses big.

Gordon had 4 catches for 81 yards today. At quick glance that looks good....but he was targeted 12 times! That's a ton of missed opportunities and inefficiency.

I have loved rooting for the Patriots for quite a while, but the run just seems to be coming to an end. Unless Brady has his own goys and is awesome (like the last 3 Super Bowl's), they are just another crappy, dysfunctional black team with overrated receivers like Gordon and Dorsett, Summo's that stink and a group of defenders that suck.

Personally, I hope Bill B., Brady and Gronk all retire after this season. They have nothing left prove, step aside and let Lonsmon Bob Kraft field a mostly all black team....like Detroit, Oakland or Arizona. That's probably what Kraft really wants after so many years of his team being dubbed "too white" by Marxist media types and DWF's.

As far as Jordy Nelson, he's done. Basically was awesome at Miami early in the season, but has been "caste aside" since then. He made a horrific error choosing Oakland over New Orleans last spring. Hopefully Gruden will show him some mercy and cut him....leading to N.O., which desperately needs more WR's, picking him up.

 

[Don Wassall]

Lowry with a sack, Fackrell has at least one (and five on the season), Martinez is his usual tackling machine self. I now root against the GB offense (just as I'm getting close to the point of rooting against the Patriots due to Belichick's deliberate destruction of a winning formula) but the mighty whiteys on the Packers defense are a bright spot.

 

[Riggins44]

Goff to Higbee for the TD. Rams go for two and Gurley is stuffed. LA up 26-21 on Pete's Plantation.

 

[wile]

O'leary clutch catch

 

[Thrashen]

Very little to care about in these afternoon games.

Kupp doing nothing in the second half. Hopefully he can snag a late TD or long pass like he did last week.

Bryant out for the game and still no catches for Jordy.

Amendola leading the Dolphins with 58 yards.

 

[CrazyFinn]

Kupp just went down with what appears to be serious knee injury. Absolute bummer!

 

[Riggins44]

Crap. Kupp just fell in a heap and grabbed his knee. It didn't look good.

 

[Thrashen]

Kupp down with what looks like a left knee injury. This sucks...

 

[The Hock]

I'm getting a jinx complex. Watching Seattle vs LA off and on. Just as I get back to the game Kupp gets hurt and it looks serious.

Also when the SeaSucks stop the Rams short of a TD I'm pretty sure I heard some bro shout "****, Nigga!"

 

[Leonardfan]

Terrible to hear Kupp went down again.


Goff has twice as many passing yards as the Dung Bettle.

 

[Deceptive Speed]

Dean Lowry with the Sack, its his first of the season!

 

[Deceptive Speed]

Beat me to it Don

 

[Leonardfan]

Dung Beetle and his one trick fails him this time. The plantation falls again.

 

[CrazyFinn]

Godd*** Pete’s plantation! Thankfully they lost but almost every game it seems we have to deal with Wilson potential 4th quarter heroics because the other team fails to put the game away.

I did see Kupp walk under his own power, better than being carted off. But not sure if it’s the same knee he hurt earlier. On replay, he was just running his route and the knee buckled. Those non-contact injuries tend to be torn-something, hoping for the best.

When Kupp walked to the locker room, he was almost jogging and the injury didn’t look so bad. That said, I remember Jordy doing the same thing when he tore his ACL a few years back.

I don’t have high hopes, but it would be great if he just aggravated his previous injury and can return later this season.

 

[TwentyTwo]

Same knee Kupp hurt/sprained a few weeks ago being Horse-collared?? Sucks! He probably came back too soon!! Can only hope he will be close to 100% toward end of Regular Season headed into Playoffs?

EXACTLY Truthteller! Jordy Nelson should be in New Orleans ...he would be the perfect compliment to Michael Thomas. Brees laser like precision today 22 for 25 for 265 yards ( 1 drop & one throw away)....21 TD's this season ...only ONE INT (by Harrison Smith).

DB Clayton Fejedelem played a lot today; but got hurt.

Thanks Deceptive Speed...Nice to see Sorenson back in the line up!

I heard it as well. They call themselves that probably 20 times a day. I used to see growing amongst them.

 

[TwentyTwo]

6'-4" LB Leighton VanderEsch w his 1st Career INT...Nice return too. Even Collinsworth said he could be Rookie of Year on Defense

OG Zack Martin hurt; does not look good

 

[Flint]

I heard it as well. They call themselves that probably 20 times a day. I used to see growing amongst them.

20 times a day? You was hanging wit some polite brutha's. 20 times a minute is the average in Detroit!

Zach Zenner's carry was on the last play of the game with a few seconds left in a blow out. It almost seemed a going away present but the Lions have so many injuries and just cut Abdullah so Zenner might stick for a few games.

Jordy Nelson has been beyond disappointing. How a crappy team like Oakland can disregard one of it's starting receivers is nuts. Maybe they trade him to the Pats as soon as Gordon screws up which should be soon.

 

[Deceptive Speed]

No prob! Sorensen is one of my favorite player's, as he's a big hitter and probably the best tackling S in the NFL!

 

[FootballDad]

Hey all y'all! I actually went to the Chiefs game today and don't remember a damn thing. Just glad I didn't lose the whole day! I learned that they have barf clean-up crews at Arrowhead stadium for the over-intoxicated and it's awesome to have multiple designated drivers in the family. Opening the gates five hours prior to kickoff does however insure that most participants will arrive in a similar state to cheer on "It's" Pat! and other relatively high-melanin content players.

 

[Riggins44]

Ha! Sounds like you had a good time.

 

[BeyondFedUp]

Anyone else surprised at how critical Collinsworth is of Prescott tonight? I'm quite surprised...
