NFL 2017-18 Thread

Is Frank Gore a future HOFer? I thought it was a no-brainer given his career stats (likely to be #5 on the all-time rushing list by the end of the season), but apparently his candidacy is a subject of rather contentious debate:

He’s racked up the yards but wasn’t much of a dynamic player. Are there any memorable runs that stand out?

Problem with Frank Gore HoF is he was never dominant. He was very good for a very long time but I can’t ever remember a season in which he was great.

All time rushing yards doesn’t mean anything other than he’s been healthy a long time.

Cleveland with the Factory of Sadness!

Well, healthy and productive, at the very least.

You’d think so, but this is also the league that keeps giving Jeff Fischer a job...

Wow, no mention about the playoffs? I thought Saturday's games were boring as I couldn't care less about any of the teams playing - though I was a little surprised by Tennessee's come back win. The Jacksonville games was pretty good although very low scoring. The Falcons/Eagles and Saints/Vikings games look interesting next weekend - unfortunately I'll miss the Falcons/Eagles game.

Cam Newton concussion explanation was total bullshit. Panthers pulled a Seahawks and completely ignored concussion protocol for the playoffs.

 

[Joffrey]

Why is it up to the team to adhere to the protocol? Every competitive (and commercial) bone in their body would be compelled to play someone like Cam Newton with their season on the line. The NFL should take over once there is any concern of a concussion.

Damn Kirk... YOU LIKE THAT!!!

 

[Joffrey]

Unfortunate but good for him. I’ll root for any team that gets him. Plus given the Redskins history he’ll likely win a Super Bowl or make a divisional championship within a couple of years of leaving

He becomes an UFA. Either he's going to cash in like nobody's business or be Case Keenum'd.

Um... yea... illegal formation would’ve stopped that TD.

Well that and the fumble on the TD...

Is it clear the receiver is off the line? The camera angle appears not to be exactly aligned with the LOS.
I assume you only look at his front foot but don’t really know.
