Non-Bears NFL thread 2025

[bukie]

Yeah, I think the team won that will make next week a better game, because that Denver team against either NFC team would lose by 30.

NE is gonna get rolled by Seattle or LA.

This Patriot has got to be one of the weaker Super Bowl representatives in recent memory.

We have Brandon Beane to partially thank for that. Eight seasons with a QB setting franchise and NFL records and he's managed to build absolutely nothing around him.

The only rooting interest I have left is in Darnold winning the Super Bowl.

Right now this Rams defense isn't much better than the Bears, they can get to the QB a little more.  Overall, it's terrible.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Refs are eating their whistles in this one. In all honesty no team got screwed as badly as the Bears did in this playoffs so far.

This game is for the SB championship. New England luck boxed itself to a SB appearance 

[Derwood]

I am bored by this NFC game. I really don't care who wins this (or the Super Bowl)

Darnold looks phenomenal tonight. Great movement in the pocket and dropping dimes.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Damn, Rams answered right back in 3 plays. 

[gflore34]

And the Seahawks literally give 7 points back by being stupid.  Think the Seahawks will score again, nevertheless, there was no need for such foolishness.

Probably not going to make your coach very happy when you get a taunting penalty when it would have been 4th and 12.

[Tryptamine]

I just don't get going for it. Take the FG, keep it a one possession game even if they score another TD.

[gflore34]

Rams, like the Bears because of their porous defense, forced to go for it instead of taking the points.  Former Illini comes up big for the Seahawks, love it. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Should have taken the points

Less likely Seattle is going to get a TD since there's less than 5 minutes left. They're not going to have a 15 play drive so they'd have to get some big plays, which considering they're winning, they're less likely to try for. It's only 4th and 4 and you've gained 435 yards today so McVay has faith in his offense. Plus if you don't get it, Seattle is backed up so if you get a stop, you're likely to get better field position than if Seattle takes over at the 30 or 35.

EDIT: Not saying it's a cut and dry decision to go for it. But I understand why they would.

So the Rams call a timeout to debate whether or not to challenge the first down. Why not just challenge the first down if you’re going to call the timeout?

[Hot Sauce]

Here comes Stafford’s game-winning drive.

[Derwood]

Nope

[gflore34]

We all know football can be completely random but, there's no reason the Patriots have the much of chance.  Would have much rather seen a Bills-Seahawks SB.

Sam Darnold becomes the first QB from the 2018 class to reach the Super Bowl, as everyone expected.

Look up what other QBs were drafted in 2018 to understand the absurdity.

Chaps my ass that horsefeathers Drake Maye made it to the Super Bowl before Caleb.

Josh Rosen, Mason Rudolph and Mike White?
