Who else is ready for the '25 NFL Season?

UncleWede · 10-06-2025, 05:46 PM

Hey JMcLellan we are back above .500!!!

It could be a long season. I don't think I have seen Theilen catch a single pass yet ;(

I think Thielen caught a pass to convert a 2pt conversion. Aside from that he has been useless.
I do think it's gonna be a long season and I think 9 wins is where we end up.

Yeah I know, doesn't surprise me to be honest. However, I heard they wanted someone who could come in and learn the playbook quickly and has proven to be a gamer. Whatever that means.

Just hope the oline can protect him and he can get the ball to our receivers and not to the other team like Browning did. Just need a chance...

He will be an improvement over Browning. I think the real winners here are fantasy managers who have Chase, Higgins and Brown. Not sure Flacco has enough left to go win playoff games. But I'm glad to see the Bengals make a move. It was tough watching Browning!!

I would love to see that as I placed a betting app wager for the Bengals to win it all.

I am happy they made a move. It's still up for debate if it was the right one or not but I believe it's better than keeping Browning in there. If you think about it. If Browning wasn't so careless with the football against the Vikings and Lions, they would have won. Well, maybe not the Vikes, but def the Lions would have been a win!

I hope it comes true! They sure have the talent and hope it works out with Flacco. Maybe this is a wake up call for the oline now. Who knows though.

Sort of like the handful of betters who made serious bank by taking recently-promoted Leicester City to win the English Premiere League at 10,000:1 several years ago. They have since been relegated out of the league, FWIW.

Why can't we have relegation in the NFL? Surely, the NY Jests would be sent down to Pop Warner at the end of this season.....

vreihen16 · 10-10-2025, 12:20 AM

Sucks to be a Philadelphia sports fan today, with the Eagles getting spanked by the Giants, the Phillies eliminated from the playoffs, and the Flyers losing their season opener.....

DubaiRich · 10-10-2025, 12:54 AM

As a Giants fan and New Yorker...I'm Lovin' it!

UncleWede · 10-14-2025, 04:47 PM

At $20/MNF game for squares, I'm down from the initial $200 entry to my last game. Switched up from using my youngest son's name to using my granddaughter's. Girls got one more game to show some life, then we bring back the seasoned vet to the starting role.

Oh, the the Vikings DID stay above .500 this week!!!!

MoeTE87 · 10-15-2025, 07:44 AM

Flacco looked promising in the 2nd half against the Packers. Looked like they finally opened up the play book for him and started getting decent drives and putting up points without any INT's, which is huge!

Bengals play the Steelers tomorrow night, will be interesting to see the battle of the 40 year olds!

Dude. Flacco looks like a top 5 QB. I have the steelers D for fantasy this week so that sucks. Maybe old Joe can save the Bengals season until young Joe comes back.

Holy smokes what a game! Joe Flacco looked unbelievable! Same with Rodgers. I don't think I saw a better offensive game in a long time.

I can't believe the Steelers dline couldn't get any pressure on Flacco. Wow, I am still in disbelief. Flacco picked apart that defense at will and they didn't have an answer for anything.

If the Bengals offense plays like that and the defense somewhat gets a little better...I think they are playoff bound and should keep Joey B on the sideline to heal and have him come back next year!

Bengals vs Vikes superbowl this year!

eliphil · 10-18-2025, 12:12 PM

The NFL is wide open this year with no dominant team, that makes things interesting for sure

eliphil · 10-20-2025, 12:02 PM

Well my Giants are watchable again and exciting but what an ugly finish. The coach and kicker cost them the game.

vreihen16 · 10-20-2025, 01:02 PM

...and cost me another painful week in the football pool.....

eliphil · 10-20-2025, 05:55 PM
