Arena The Official NFL Discussion Thread (Now Featuring Time's Person of the Year, Taylor Swift!)

This is a little late, but those Patriots fans who threw beer in Tyreek Hill's face aren't looking so bad now....

 

No they still are. You don't win by sinking to someone's low level.

 

Football is a rough sport, so I wouldn't mind seeing an opposing player "accidentally" going after his ACL.

Did I say that out loud?

 

I hope they never have the chance, because I hope he never plays in the NFL again.

 

Good point.

 

Don't throw venomous snakes at Tyrek Hill. I wouldn't want them getting hurt biting as worthless a person as him.

 

Speaking of the Chiefs, Jamaal Charles signed a one - day contract to retire as a Chief (there's video of him getting a final hand - off from Mahomes) and Derrick Johnson will soon follow.

 

Jamaal in his prime was a monster. I remember that Week 15 game he had like 9 TD's (I'm exaggerating but still)

 

Jamaal belongs in the Hall of Fame. He retired with the highest yards-per-carry average of anyone, ever. If he'd played on the coasts he would have been a huge deal.

 

not quite "anyone, ever" but he's up there.

Oh right, it was any running back ever, that's what it is. Those ahead there are a Fullback and two QBs. My point is, when you're ahead of Jim Brown... yeah.

 

If Jamaal Charles is HOF, then what about Frank Gore? He is now fourth all time in career yardage and since Frank is coming back for another year, he could be #3 all time by the end of the year behind only Walter Payton and Emmitt Smith.

 

i'm not sure about first ballot, but gore will definitely be in the hall of fame.

 

Yeah, I would agree. Look at who's around Gore on the all-time list. All of them have Gold Jackets.

Top 2 YPA guys all-time were Philly QB's, that's wild

 

We’re all pretty used to stories about NFL players behaving badly, so here’s one about one doing the right thing.

 

Yeah Gore is HOF at some point. They let Curtis Martin, they will let him in.

 

Mathieu Betts is a FA pickup the Bears signed this week. Not sure if his game translates to the NFL level (doubtful frankly) but holy hell his college footage from Canada looks like a mini Bobby Boucher out there!



Captain Insanio would be proud.

 

I cannot wait to see the Bears play again. AND I am going to be back home in Chicagoooooo.

 

I think Daniel Jones and Dewayne Haskins are going to turn out to be very good for years to come that will be the difference between the guys you brought up and these two. from everything I have seen of Daniel Jones at rookie mini camp he has the personality of Eli Manning and Derek Jeter to handle the media, very smooth with the media and he isn't an Eli clone besides the fact he can throw the deep ball and has an accurate throw and can Run like a Gazelle that to me shows me he is really good. Duke was a horrible team they constantly dropped balls and he had a horrible offensive line. what if you put Daniel Jones all these years on Ohio State how good would he have been? and what if you put Dewayne Haskins on Duke how bad would he have been?


I'll Tell you what, I talk to a lot of Giants fans weather online or friends family and neighbors there are quite a few Giants fans in my Neighborhood a family at the end of my block are Giants fans! but I talk to a lot of Giants fans and we all are becoming bigger Daniel Jones fans the more the media picks on him. Fans like an underdog story. Eli used to be the underdog trying to live up to his older brother two super bowls later and a future hall of famer and things look a little different now then when it all started in 2004...

 

It's silly to call that a 'good rivalry' yet. I doubt Jones will be on the field next year.
