NFL 2017 Season

[JBrax]

It looks as though the rookie QB class is off to a good start. Trubisky, Kizer, and Watson have seemingly all had good debuts. Many people have touted next years class as being better but maybe the current crop will exceed expectations? I'm really looking forward to seeing how Mahomes performs tonight for the Chiefs.

Wow... Cowboys lose their running back for 6 games!

 

[JBrax]

Yep, that's a HUGE blow! E.E. is a beast and provided Dak a nice security blanket by keeping defenses honest. I've been following his career for quite some time. He chose Ohio State over Mizzou and grew up here!

Patrick Mahomes more than lived up to the hype last night in his NFL rookie debut. Although the Chiefs lost the real story was just how calm and cool he looked. He made some incredible throws that showcased why he was the second QB drafted. Good things to come...

I sense T.J. Watt is going to be following in his brother's footsteps.

T.J. Watt ended the game with five tackles, two sacks and a batted pass

Seahawks showing positive year with preseason win ! GoHawks!

 

[phillihp23]

Make that two wins now for the Seahawks! The kickers have been looking real good.

The Chiefs and Bengals play tonight at 6 and really looking forward to seeing Patrick Mahomes again. It's hard to believe we hadn't invested a first round pick on the QB position in over 30 plus years! It's no wonder we haven't been to a SuperBowl recently. I know it's early but the kids been impressive according to Andy Reid.

How do you guys watch the NFL? Streaming or cable? I cut the cable due to cost, and I am now testing Sling TV with the NFL Network. The picture quality is excellent, but the voice goes out of sync a lot. Pretty annoying.

 

[JBrax]

We have Google. Honestly, I've considered doing the same but I can't give up my sports.

Patrick Mahomes looked great.

Tom Savage is so far handling his own as QB..

Regular season we shall see how things go.

I am not surprised by this news. Maybe it is time for him to retire?

from chron,

"ESPN reported Wednesday that Osweiler isn't expected to play in Cleveland's third preseason game and the Browns are now attempting to trade the sixth-year quarterback."

Chiefs and Seahawks tonight and I can't wait. I'm very interested to see how Patrick Mahomes fares against a stout Seahawks defense. It's still pre-season but this third game is the most regular season simulation we'll get until the actual season begins. No injuries, no injuries, and please no injuries!

Talk about penalties both sides that game......but my Seahawks pulled off another preseason win.

Where's the dislike button? Yes, it was almost hard to watch at times. Seahawks look good though.

The Chiefs had some good defense, tight coverage. They were making Seattle work for it, they didn't just roll over. Offside penalties and the like really hurt the Chiefs, certainly didn't help their momentum.

True, and also the dropped balls which is very unlike the receivers. The penalties were just a killer on both teams and the flow of the game.

Looks like Julian Edelman suffered a complete tear of the ACL
