Boo Khaki Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Amusing how players are usually effusive about playing in London, but the attitude to a Brazil game is markedly different 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrpaddyx Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 I'm really excited for the season until the Patriots actually start playing and get pumped by the Bengals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 I think seasons with absolutely no expectations are some of the more enjoyable. Getting humped, no, but at least you can focus on watching younger players develop without the stress and disappointment of shit coaching and injuries leading to underachievement. The four games after LAC punted Staley last year were some of the most fun I've had watching the team in years. Even the Raiders drubbing was enjoyable because the players visibly quit on the coaching staff so it left the ownership no option but to fire the moron HC. QB play was absolute shit once Herbert went down, but just watching them go out and play with no pressure, and seeing the immediate difference the removal of Staley made to players like Derwin James was really enjoyable. Kinda looking forward to this season for similar reasons. No expectations of getting to the post-season, but competent coaching, being rid of perpetually underachieving players, and a load of younger ones brought in by a staff with completely contrasting philosophy to the last regime is reason enough for optimism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I remember the Patriots in the early 90s, woeful for most of it but drafting Drew Bledsoe made a big difference and it was an upward trend from there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only expectation I have is to be royally gubbed by the Chiefs, with the best performer on the roster being Thunder the horse mascot. It’s being so cheery that keeps me going….

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 Why did Eagles decline penalty on field goal try? They'd have had a first down and could have just kneeled down rather than risking giving the Packers another drive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
