2021 NFL Week 8

[El Gringo]

Is it me or do white players have plays called backed when they make a big gain more often than black players?

It sure as hell seems like it to me, especially when you consider how rare it is for a Caucasian to touch the ball on any given Sunday!

Berrios with a TD! Jets back up QB Mike White has a live arm!

Brilliant catch

What is happening to the Bills 3 3 with Miami eurgh

 

[icsept]

Kupp 11 yard TD reception

 

[woody39]

Kupp 6 for 109 and the latest good touchdown. Stafford's motoring 18-279 3 touchdowns

 

[woody39]

Beasley 6 - 55 yards so far tonight (for me lol)

 

[Leon Sandcastle]

I hate to be that guy, but I'm not convinced that Berrios had possession of the ball before he stepped out of bounds. It certainly passes the "common-sense test", but catches like that are routinely overturned for the same reason (like the Keenan Cole catch from the same drive).

Nice to see Skowronek getting some playing time

It looked a bit close but for me benefit of the doubt should go to the offense makes for a better experience for everyone more points.

Lions are awful - getting blown out by a mediocre eagles team

They put all their chips in the middle of the table last week against the Rams and came up short. Not a surprise that they're playing a little flat this week.

One wonders whether they'll win a game at all. Maybe their rematch against Chicago if Fields continues to struggle? Or perhaps Week 18 against Green Bay if they've already clinched?

 

[woody39]

Beasley 8 from 11 86 yards come on Cole!!

 

[Leonardfan]

Great TD reception by Freiermuth!

 

[woody39]

Touchdown burky - my favourite player great to see him back

 

[Leonardfan]

Nall also had a carry. I guess all it took was Nagy getting put on the Covid List.

Great to see him get some carries and find the end zone! They should just make him the main running back from here on out.

Exactly rumours of patriots trading for him aswell as James whites injured.

Burkhead would be a solid presence for the rookie QB - either in Houston with Mills or back in New England.

 

[BeyondFedUp]

Mayfield just made a gutsy first down run and got the crowd fired up after being hit hard. Good to see our guys get tough and getting the crowd going.

 

[Bucky]

Bills offense comes to life as soon they start targeting Beasley.

 

[Leonardfan]

Schobert with the FF on Landry. Watt with the recovery.

 

[BeyondFedUp]

And as I say that the Browns turn it over....

There should have been a flag called on that too. If he were a black running quota then he would have enjoyed a penalty for the late hit out of bounds.

It sure looked that way....
