prob fake but "slant boy"

Idiot Zimmer just threw away our season.

Worst case scenario, we're in OT.

He's f'd up royally twice now too.

This team should be at a healthy 3-2; instead we're ed at 1-4.

He really ed up tonight. I hate when coaches overthink things. Just take the FG and let the Seahawks go get 8 pts in less than 2 minutes.

Yup. It's not like we're 90's Cowboys with a dominant offensive line. That play was a coin flip.

Take the sure 3 and there's plenty of paths to victory after that.

Also, I don't think he over-thinked it. He just panicked like he always does. You can see the panic on his face.

Vikings were running it like the 90's Cowboys, tbh. But even then, take the points. It's a no-brainer. I'm usually a "go for it" kind of guy, and would support most coaches taking a chance on 4th down, but this wasn't one of those cases, tbh.

Always go for it when the other team has to get the TD and the 2 just to tie.

Like I said, Zimmer has no plan in the first place.

He wings it; and that's bad for a guy that panics.

Week 5 Predictions:

TB @ CHI - Tampa Tom is the GOAT and Chicago's offense has been anemic lately.

LAR @ WAS - The Rams have established themselves as the 2nd best team in the stacked NFC West and the 'Skins are awful and starting a backup QB now.
BUF @ TEN - If the game is actually played on schedule (big if), the ans are depleted and stressed by COVID-19, just ravaged.
PHI @ PIT - Upset of the week. The Steelers seem like a buzzsaw but they had an unexpected bye last week. The Eagles could actually have something now.
AZ @ NYJ - 'Zona and Kyler Murray rebound from two poor losses to beat the worst team in football.
LV @ KC - Assuming Mahomes doesn't have COVID, this should be a categorical victory for the Chiefs. If Mahomes doesn't play, this pick changes to the Raiders.
JAX @ HOU - Neither team is very good, but I'm picking Minshew and the Jaguars on the road. Houston sucks nuts this year and is in complete turmoil.
CIN @ BAL - Another categorical victory for the Ravens. Ravens are still pretenders until they win a truly "hard" game.
CAR @ ATL - Another loss could put Dan Quinn's job finally in grave jeopardy. Panthers have overachieved this year.
MIA @ SF - 49ers should get important pieces back this week, especially Garoppolo. A bad conference home loss last week will hurt them down the road.
NYG @ DAL - This is my other upset pick. The Giants offense is coming in ranked dead last, 32nd, Jason Garrett-led. But Jason Garrett will get his unlikely revenge, at the expense of Jerry Jones' sanity.
IND @ CLE - Indiana is emerging as an excellent, defensive, running football team. Their week 1 loss is an aberration. The Browns won't score 49 points again.
DEN @ NE - Categorical victory for the Patriots against a hapless opponent, even without their best player on offense and best player on defense both out with COVID.
MIN @ SEA - Categorical win for the Seahawks who just keep rolling, though the Vikings will be better than they looked the first couple weeks.

LAC @ NO - Hurricane Delta could put the location in jeopardy, but the Saints are in any case by far the superior team.

You're pretty crappy at this. Someone taking your straight up advice would be in a pretty big hole at this point. Your upsets never seem to pan out.

This was a good call though...
CAR @ ATL - Another loss could put Dan Quinn's job finally in grave jeopardy. Panthers have overachieved this year. Although you hedged it with "could".

[spurraider21]

are the saints ever going to stop wasting downs with taysom hill plays?

[Robz4000]

Hebert's pretty gud.

[DAF86]

All those scouts "pundits" saying Herbert was going to be a bust.

[DAF86]

Third straight primetime game where the Saints don't look so hot, tbh.

[Will Hunting]

Justin Herbert needs to get some proactive. His acne is grosser than Durant’s pizza face was in his early years.

[SuperCam]

washed breezus

[DAF86]

At which point do you consider benching Brees?

[Will Hunting]

Brees might be done. He’s at the age where every quarterback not named Tom Brady or Brett Favre usually falls off, and he never looked right last year imo.

[DAF86]

Worst part is he had Kamara all alone for his preferred 2 yds pass. Kamara gets the first down if Brees gives him the ball there.

[Robz4000]

At which point do you consider benching Brees?

This upcoming drive tbh.

[DAF86]

This upcoming drive tbh.

Yep, I would do it. Old dude looks shooked out there, tbh.

[Will Hunting]

They should bench Brees simply because I wanna see some Jameis.

[DAF86]

Saints have been getting some great field possession and Brees only managed to get 3 points.

[DAF86]

Chargers decided to play no defense. A slight variation from prevent defense.

[DAF86]

Chargers' coach wanting to lose the game, tbh. First he tries to run the clock down as if the game was in the 4th quarter, and then goes to prevent defense instead of keep playing the same way that got them there.

[spurraider21]

herbert throwing intermediate/deep in the pros better than he ever did in college, good on him tbh

[DAF86]

Old man still has a little arm left.

[Robz4000]

Herbert tbh.
