NFL 2023 - Weekly Discussion

[bukie]

So it begins.

[Derwood]

Chiefs about to lose the season opener?

At home?

To the LIONS?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

NFL week 1 always has crazy results.  Bears (eventually 3-14) beat the 49ers (eventually 13-4) last season in the opener.

Wasn't that the hurricane game?

[Brian707]

Week 1 is always crazy, but this Lions team should be legit this year. Not the 2022 Bears who beat the Trey Lance 49ers, in an end of times storm

Do the Chiefs cut Kadarius Toney today? I'm kidding but man, talk about single handedly costing your team a game by not doing the very thing you're paid to do.

The Lions haven’t really been a for real team in any of our lifetimes. It’s really weird and I don’t know what to make of it.

They have 1 playoff victory since 1957

I have 3 friends that are still stout Lions fans. I take my hat off to that kind of loyalty. I actually cheer along with them when they aren't playing the Bears. I can relate to fans who have even more sorry franchises than to cheer for than me.

Goff will hold the Loins back from being an above .500 team. 

[Y2J]

My favorite upsets for today... Pittsburgh (+114), New England (+164), and Las Vegas (+140).

Did you see Goff's numbers from last year? He seems to be really in tune with the playbook in Detroit now.

Okay, I’ll play those with my winnings from the easiest money I’ve seen in a while. How was Nebraska only a 2 point dog to Colorado?

I made just under $5k on Coco Gauff yesterday. I took her at +1400 to win the US Open back in early August when the ladies were in Montreal.

49ers are mauling the Steelers

DeShaun Watson's contract is a disaster. He's awful

 

[NOLA]

The Saints defense looking incredible while the offense has 6 points feels very 2022.  This AFTER a blocked punt and an INT.

And Taysom Hill still hasn’t touched the ball today.

[Derwood]

Bengals and Browns both look like pooh

 

 

[soccer10k]

Burrow 14-31 for 82 yards.

[Andy]

Well, Bryce Young averaged under 4 yards per pass attempt today. Not completion - attempt. And he made the same horrific mistake twice for interceptions. Very strong Jimmy Clausen vibes.

Looking good for the Bears to get a big-time draft pick.

Anybody else watching this barn burner between Miami and Los Angeles (C)?

They’ll end up with two top 5 picks. And still manage to horsefeathers them up somehow.
