2024 NFL Season
-
@Crimsonorblue22 The absence of Sneed will not be noticeable after a few games. Spags will get the DBs to stop trying to tackle by diving behind the runners. I hope…
Balt gave up on using Henry in the 2nd half b/c the Chiefs were up by 2 scores. Remember the Titans game in the playoffs a few years back? Same thing. A good lead can negate his dominance.
-
Couple of observations:
While Xavier got two TDS, Rice is most important WR for Chiefs offense.
Nick B was lost, not a good start, Gay was missed. KC needs athletic LBs.
Overall DBs did a good job without Sneed.
Ravens are very tough and legit.

LB was a position of concern for me coming into the season. I thought they mostly played well. Helped stop the run. Bolton looked like a turtle on the Likely touchdown play though.
-
Bolton needs to step up big time, he just looked so slow out there. The tight ends were blowing him away. If has another game like that, he needs to be demoted to special teams. That was one of the worst performances I’ve seen in a long time from a linebacker.
-
Well the Ravens win was exciting and frustrating. Jackson had a lot of opportunities to beat KC on the last drive. Did everyone see Coach Harbaugh signal for a two point conversion before the TD was overturned? I sure wish I knew what play was going to be called. Henry up the middle? Play/action for Jackson to run wide or pass. Wow, that would have been fun. Next up, Cincy. I was surprised the Chiefs get another home game for this game.
-
Fun game. I won’t be online as much for football games this year, especially the Chiefs as I’m trying to enjoy time with my mom who is really getting up in years at this point. Plus being on twitter and such during games really brings out more of my negative side.
-
@AsadZ Jones got pooped. Lamar to many lil easy passes and to many easy runs up the gut. We gave them the easy ones. Designed? They easily used the clock and got the ball where they wanted. We were super lucky. I miss Snead.
-
Willie Gay’s athleticism is missed. Bolton got exposed.
-
@BShark Understood, hope you can watch highlights and stuff
-
@Crimsonorblue22 It appears that this years’ D will be more like Spag’s typical teams who develop and gel over course of the season. Last year was an anomaly.
-
I’ve always used ESPN for stats during and after the games. Mahomes passing was 20/28 for 291 yds. What do you say the average is? I’ve always measured the average by completions, but this year, ESPN is using Yards divided by Attempts. Average yds per completion means something useful; average yds per attempt doesn’t mean very much.
-
@stoptheflop I thought average was always total yards divided by attempts
-
@BShark Yes! You should watch the game with your mom and catch up with the buckets crowd later.

Oh I am going over to watch games with her while I still can. She loves football.
-
@BShark Well, darn it, I’m getting up in years, too, so how dare you stop visiting me here at the Buckets Old Farts Home!
-
There is an average yards per attempt and an average yards per completion, but to be honest I never look at either. For me it’s about
total yards, TDs, and third down conversion percentage.nah it’s about marveling over Mahomes. He’s ruined me for other sports even. Fanboy here.
-
@AsadZ I hope so!
-
@BShark you’re a good son! Sounds like you have a lovely mom🥰

An update on the Peacock NFL watching experience…
Insert as many profanities as possible here…absolute horseshit. I’m on the west coast, so couldn’t really catch the game live to start. I tried to watch a replay hours after the game ended, and even tried to watch a replay this morning. NOPE!
Not available. Incredible. WTF kinda service is this? Surely I’m not the only human on the planet that can’t always watch a game live.
Cancelling with extreme prejudice.
-
Saquan Barkley was a great get by Eagles, hope Jordan Love does not miss much time @jayballer54
-
@rockchalkjayhawk u couldn’t get it on nbc?

I think it was Peacock stream only— didn’t even check
-
Well my Pack took a Major blow with love spraining his MCL - - last play of the fricken game. They are hoping three-four weeks , shoot e don’t have any an back up - -with two noodles. We could very easily be 0-5 – -that’s is he is only out 3-4 weeks.
Shouldn’t been in that position anyways traded blow for blow with Philly- - our penalties just killed us , 10 penal , - -had a 38 yd TD called back because of one - -then you add not cashing in on forced TO"s w had two INT’s and a recovered fumble - -deep in Philly territory and only got a couple field goals – not going to cut it - maybe we get lucky

Oops, ranting about the Peacock experience for the Eagles-Packers game Friday.
The Chiefs I saw on NBC. Whew!
-
@jayballer67 was talking chiefs
-
What do you think about Brady in the new role as a commentator
-
Texans vs Colts was the most entertaining game yesterday in my opinion.
-
What about Panthers? Sorry to see such talented QB in Bryce Young’s career being in jeopardy when staff is totally inept.
-
Did anyone hear about Tyreek Hill getting detained and handcuffed on his way to the game.
Then he scored 80 yd TD.
Unbelievable.
-
Poor Cheetah. Hate to see that happen to anybody.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Caleous Campbell (sp) was cuffed too, when he tried to help Tyreek out - he should’ve just called a lawyer. My understanding is the officer has been placed on administrative leave. And here is why- dickhead cop doesn’t understand people’s rights.
-
Kadarius Toney was signed by Browns after their pathetic loss to Cowboys
-
Deshawn Watson trade is shaping out to be one of the worst in recent history.
Damn, Browns gave 3 1st round picks and more to Texans and signed him for over $200M, what a waste.
-
Speaking of Deshawn…anybody see that he’s accused of yet another sexual assault? I need more fingers and toes to count em all.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Unbelievable
This trade could not have worked out any better for Texans, jackpot
-
@AsadZ I like their new coach as well. Demeco Ryans seems to have things cooking.
-
Did you guys see the hit on Tua? My goodness I honestly think he should retire but why didn’t he slide. He had the first down yardage easily
-
Looks like Hollywood is done cookin. shoulder surgery. out for months. eff.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Someone else will pick up the slack. If Worthy can catch the ball - nobody can catch him.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk That’s a tough blow
-
Concern with Worthy is his lack of size, he is only 160 lbs
Thus Chiefs have to be careful on how they use him on offense, he can’t be put in situations where he get many hits.
-
-
I wonder if the Chiefs bring in another deep threat WR somehow. Wouldn’t surprise me.
-
The Chiefs have 3 WRs on the practice squad, Nikko Rimigio, Justyn Ross, and Montrell Washington. I’d like to see Ross get a few weeks and just finally break out of the problems his 2 yr foot injury caused him. But it will probably be whoever shows best combo of speed and route running to give pressure opposite Worthy.
-
A few upsets today.
Ravens going down at home to Raiders.
Niners going down.
How about Saints knocking off Dak & boys.
-
Let’s go Chiefs. Please throw the ball down field in this second series.
-
@stoptheflop or this series!
long game.
-
Wow.
Worthy…
Speed…
-
Nice 3rd series. Rashee Rice with the nice sidelines TD catch.
-
TOs Damn
