2018 NFL Week 5 Thread: Earl Thomas Middle Finger Thread

Brandin Cooks ded again

He and Cooper Kupp out with concussions

[Outlaw]

The Titans are such flukey team. One week they beat the Super Bowl champs. The next they lose to the Bills. >.>

[Krandor]

The two teams the Eagles have won against are both 1-4, so beating them may not be the accomplishment it was a year ago

[Cail]

Great defense there from Dallas

Bills and Browns both won this week. When is the last time that happened?

Week 5 of the 2015 season

Browns beat the Ravens 33 30
Bills beat the Titans 14 13

Same week, same teams, same margins of victory (home and away teams swapped tho)

Lmao at the Ringer headline

"This Browns Season is a Buffalo Wild Wings Commercial Come to Life"

That jab about boneless wings hurts because I know it's true.

So much OT

[Twilight Sky]

I guess the Falcons were like fuck it. Haven't seen them murdered on the field like that in a long time.

[Weltall]

Falcons probably one of the more feared 1-4 teams ever?

idk but it's depressing. For some reason other falcons fans (per Reddit) think the coaching staff is above criticism. I never thought our coaches were much better than average at best, but now I'm thinking the Seahawks scheme is not viable without multiple Hall of Famers. That or our coaches suck at implementing it.

Our best defensive finish in DVOA was 22nd last year and that's with really good players at every level (Keanu/Ricardo, Trufant/Alford, Deion Jones, Grady Jarrett, etc). You should be able to build an average or better defense with those guys.

We've obviously had impactful injuries on that side this year but I expect a defensive head coach to figure some shit out anyway since that's his fucking job. I expect the defense to be below average with those injuries but it has been atrocious. Pitt punted three times yesterday. The Bengals punted ONCE last week and didn't even see fourth down in the first half. It's so bad that I hope for third and short because if they run a pass play it's an automatic conversion.

tl;dr our coaches are embarrassing and have been riding Dimitroff's excellent drafting to get to this point

HE HIT THE FUCKING NET FROM 63 YD OUT NOT AT ALTITUDE

It’s been 20+ hours and it still hurts...

Why do we always have to have these soul crushing losses with kickers hitting their personal best against us? This is how the season spiraled out of control last year.

On the bright side, your team is still in desperate need of a new QB and each loss brings you closer to that goal. It's not as fun in the moment obviously, but in the long run it's a better result than finishing 7-9 or 8-8 and missing the playoffs anyway

Jags hit by the injury bug.

Corey Grant to IR with his Lifranc injury

Austin Sefarian-Jenkins to IR/Return

[Weltall]

Not sure that is much of an injury bug. ASJ was averaging like 20 yards a game and Corey grant has <50 yards on the season. Doubt they are impacted by either much, unless ASJ is the best blocker on the team.

Their bigger concern is how glass-made Fournette has been.

[Melena]

Well Xnostrodomous, your eliminator run came to an end last week.

[Cail]

Greg Olsen says he most likely will need a second surgery on the Jones fracture he suffered last year but hopes to play til the end of the season
