The local Detroit sports media were already heavily criticizing Patricia, Stafford, the coordinators after the Jets game. Some were even suggesting not only that the season was over if they didn't win against the 49ers, but they expect it to go off a cliff given the belief that the players hate Patricia. Lions haven't won in San Francisco since 1975. They've only won one game playing in the Pacific time zone in the last ten years and that was by a point against Oakland

Rams RB Todd Gurley is questionable to return because he is cramping.

Can bench him rest of the game being 34-0 up deep in the 4th.

What odds on Patricia being back at the Pats by the end of the year?

The Vontae Davis half-time retirement story is the stuff of legend. He's still only 30!

The Pats aren't going to do this again, surely?

Could be comeback on, Bortles just been intercepted in the 4th, but plenty of time to get 2 scores.

Slim. Could see him quietly being a coordinator elsewhere there

I say that, then the Pats fumble & give possession back to the Jags.

Lions just returned a punt in for a TD only to get called back for an Illegal Block Above the Waist.

Would you not try the QB sneak there? Fucking hell

Lions only three points back now

Ray K · « **Reply #48540 on:** September 17, 2018, 12:09:07 am »

Pat's fucked themselves twice over: not snapping the ball when the Jag jumped the line, and awful non-existent tackling on the TD.

Crikey, a severe kicking is being handed out by Jacksonville here. Without their best WR and RB too.

Now picked Jimmy G and returned it inside the 10. Called back for defensive holding.

My fantasy team is taking a beating this week, be lucky to score 60.00 points, it's that bad i should rename them Everton.

Think I'm going to be 3-1 again across my 4 leagues. I need 5 points from Jordan Howard to win one match up. If he doesn't get it then I'd have lost because the Rams kicker got jnjured during the warm up

And for the most part their starting left tackle.

The defending has been non existent all game long. Made Bortles look like Brat Favre

Broncos win on a late FG despite Carr throwing 28/31. Have to say Lindsay looks a great pick-up as an undrafted free agent

The Giants offence has been anemic. They can't even get out of their own half

IanZG · « **Reply #48550 on:** September 17, 2018, 07:17:25 am »

So here's a quick fantasy tip: Just because you added a defense (or kicker) to replace your current one doesn't mean they'll automatically be added to the first team. Will probably lose this week's game because of it

must have been another game of 2 halves in denver.

Watched the first half; Raiders in total control. Defence looked good with multiple 3-and-outs.

Were there missed PATs after that?

No. Denver just started putting up plays late in the 3rd and throughout the 4th. Raiders defence got tired. I've watched Denver's last two games and I genuinely can't tell if they are good or not, despite the 2-0 start

Heard your team conceded a TD yesterday. Sorry, can't relate.

Better from Dallas yesterday, let the Giants back into it late on but pleased with that after the Carolina game last week

the bills are so bad that Vontae Davis has apparently quit and retired at half time!

Literally the funniest thing ever in the NFL - he's an absolute moron and this is amazing.

His hardknocks trade moment now only the second most memorable moment of his career.

So bad a player retires in the middle of the game. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ah, Nugent missed a PAT.

Small margins.

Both lines protected the QB well.

What another great week 2. Those kickers would have been changing in the locker room all alone.
