Maybe the worst tandem doing NFL games. Berman is just so f***ing annoying, my ears are bleeding.

I mean, I now respect the bad announcing teams. This is just brutal, why is Dilfer yelling?

And people complain about Buck and Aikman

This is only for one week, right?

He is awful not to mention a huge douche.

 

Dilfer is like a worse version of Chucky.

At least Gruden knows when to talk.

What QB can be effective when has no time to throw? It's a team game ultimately but Romo leads the league in 4th quarter comebacks. That's a big deal and the signs of an elite QB.

Wouldn't the best QBs not need to come from behind?

Near perfect week 1 for Green Bay. All alone in first at 1-0 in NFC North and NFC contenders Seattle and Philly lost. Only thing that would have made it perfect is if NY didn't choke away their game against Dallas but we will see how they fare now without Dez for 4-6 weeks. Huge game for the Pack this weekend.

I haven't watched a single thing Berman has been a part of since 2005 ALDS Game 3.

Minnesota certainly didnt look last night like they were ready to take the next step

Absurd.

The NFL's 4th quarter comeback definition is about as pathetic as MLB's quality start also.

 

For example in Tony Romo's 1st "4th quarter comeback" of his career on 10-29-2006 against the Panthers the Cowboys were down 13-14 after kicking a field goal with 9:54 left in the 4th. The Panthers then fumble the kickoff and Dallas recovers at the 14 yard line. On the next play Romo hands off to Julius Jones who runs it in for a 14 yard touchdown to put them up 21-14 after a two point conversion. Dallas goes on to the win the game 35-14. Tony Romo is credited for a 4th quarter comeback in that game.

 

By definition a team could be down 1 point at the 1 yard line at the start of the fourth quarter. They kick a field goal and win the game the quarterback is credited with a 4th quarter comeback.

Sounds like that 4th quarter comeback stat used as evidence for whether or not a guy is elite is pretty absurd.

 

Eli Manning is also one of the leaders in that absurd stat. Absurd.

Carlos hyde sure looked awesome vs that Min defense. SF looked like an entirely different team than last year.

That D is probably still going to be good.

 

But this game screams "game one outlier" similar to tennessee's romp of the Chiefs last year.

I'm sure if I said the Packers could be 0-1 with Jordy back, they'd take that deal rather than being in the position they are in.

No doubt. I see them going probably 11-5 without him. Had they had him they could win 12-13 even with a first game loss.

I liked Teddy Bridgewater coming out of college, but he looked lost last night.

 

He doesn't step into throws. Seems like a lot of his passes are bloopers.

I liked their offensive game plan at times. Run the ball and give Kaep simple reads.

They'll win the division for sure. I don't think they can win a Super Bowl without him though. And that's the goal.

Yep - I liked what they did. Thought they had a really nice offensive game plan and with that defense, they should be able to do that. Minny looked atrocious.

I mean, they both looked pretty bad. That game was super super sloppy.

As long as #12 is playing QB they are fine.

 

16 players on IR in 2010.
