I know that the Niners were dominate, but still.
It was a worse feeling back then. Because that was early in the season. The Niners weren't looked at as contenders and the Bucs were. So it just became another "It's Bucs Life" Kinda game.

they got blown out a lot that season.

I went to the Texans game in 2011. And it was like 30-0 by the third quarter. I hate thinking about that season. Nothing but broken hope.

almost scored this goal

Imagine if depay and griezmann were on the same team
sweet tree
some nice 1 2 plays
sweet tree
yeah
honest umbra
they played much better without mbappe
or looked better up front
he’s obviously an amazing player but benzema and griezmann are more creative forwards
they would prefer linkups whereas mbappe would easily run past anyone

God benzy is so good on form
honest umbra
it’s an interesting dilemma
silk notch
funny how martial somehow snuck his way to the starting line up for france when he not even a starter for united anymore
while giroud just getting left out
honest umbra
is there a better option?
they already have benzema
playing benzema and giroud together is like eh.. nah
martial is a closer prototype to mbappe
silk notch
yea but just having giroud off the bench wouldn't hurt and its weird cause deschamps has been so loyal to giroud
honest umbra
he was loyal becuz benzema was the black sheep before
but now hes not and theres no point in being loyal lmao

giroud 5 goals away lol, wonder if he'll get it
griezmann not that far off either

I'm the only one who picked the Jets this week.
I don't think the Jets and Panthers are that far off from each other.

I am debating back and forth on that game tbh
You got Darnold for the Panthers and Wilson's first game
I haven't made all my picks yet
rustic ore
Panthers D I think will honestly be good, at least Week 1
rustic mountain
So I am like really considering it. Is McAffery back?
rustic ore
Yeah he'll be full go Week 1
rustic mountain
I think I go Panthers then
McAffery changes it where Darnold just has to show uo

Panthers are a hard team to pinpoint. But I feel like it's not a good sign for a team that thinks Darnold is gonna be good enough to win games and you keep stubbornly thinking drafting defensive players with high draft picks is a good idea.

He didn’t. It’s those injuries that hold him back though…. Hamstrung the team that contributed the to the collapse of that offense.
He’ll definitely show up.
rustic mountain
I think Stafford is overrated in LA, Seattle is on a downward trend, and SF can't even pick who they want at QB
AZ has a good shot
dim kettle
I'd still like to see more progression from Kyler this year. Because last season I still saw a lot of inconsistencies, a lot of moments of shaky ball placement and accuracy, and decision making and field vision .
rustic mountain
I mean if Josh Allen can show up and make a title game
Sky is the limit for Kyler
smoky fable
I'd still like to see more progression from Kyler this year. Because last season...
Interior line has improved and he’s been working on throwing over the middle so he should be more accurate now in that department. Deep ball to the boundary has always been a strength for him. Plus, he’s got better weapons. There better be progressions
dim kettle
Hopefully.
smoky fable
He won’t solely have to rely on his legs, hopefully
dim kettle
His decision making is what concerns me the most because coaching can only help you so much with that trait as a QB.
Like, when you draft a QB with the number one pick, you expect him to develop into a top 10 QB and I just haven't seen that yet.
