10/6/24 NFL games

Jets-Vikings on NFL Network now from London. 10-0, Vikings, nearing the end of the 1st quarter. Rodgers just threw a pick-six. Rip Van Ginkel with the pick. Horrible throw by Rodgers.

 

[BobPSU92]

Rodgers with another horrible pick. Awful throw.

J-E-S-T! JEST! JEST! JEST!

 

[BobPSU92]

Still 10-0. The Vikings failed on a 4th-down conversion (incomplete pass). Then the Vikings stuffed the Jest on a 4th down and 2.

 

[BobPSU92]

17-0, Vikings. Three penalties on the Jest secondary in the red zone (two PI’s trying to defend Jefferson, one holding trying to keep up with Addison).

The Jest have issues.

 

[BobPSU92]

The Jest get on the board 36 seconds before halftime. Rodgers to Lazard in the end zone on 3rd and 10 in the red zone. It was set up by a penalty-laden Vikings possession that afforded the Jest good field possession after a punt.

17-7, Vikings, just about halftime.

 

[BobPSU92]

Start of the 4th quarter, 17-10, Vikings. Momentum shift in the 3rd quarter. The Jest were saved by a Vikings roughing the punter penalty. That led to a Jest field goal to make it a one-score game.

The don’t-give-a-sh|t here is clear.

Jets trying to make a game of it.

I have to wonder what Rodgers did to piss off the Jets OL the way he seemingly has.

Watching Rodgers gimp around reminded me of one of my favorite students. He was the quarterback on our D3 team and I once mentioned to him that he must be pretty sore on Sundays after a game. “You have no idea.”

Vikings get a field goal. 23-17, Vikings, with 3:07 to go in the 4th.

Vikings get a field goal. 23-17, Vikings, with 3:07 to go in the 4th.

Minnesota could have worked an additional 45 seconds off the clock, easily.

 

[BobPSU92]

Rodgers picked with 44 seconds to go. The Vikings win.

Sloppy game. Of course, they’re used to that at Tottenham Stadium.

 

[LionJim]

Daniels of Washington will be ROY.

 

[BobPSU92]

Texans 14, Bills 3, 10 minutes to go in the 2nd quarter. Stroud is 8 for 8, while Allen is 1 for 9.

The Texans look like they’re wearing Bills’ alternate uniforms.

 

[LionJim]

It’s amazing that Derrick Henry is still going strong. He just today passed 10k yards, well done.

 

[LionJim]

Baltimore 14-7 Cincinnati at 8 minutes of 2. Baltimore has now scored a TD on eleven consecutive red zone situations, remarkable.

 

[LionJim]

Baltimore 14-17 Cincinnati at 9 seconds of 2. Fun play just now: Cincinnati’s Gesicki gets held five yards deep in the end zone and the pass gets intercepted and it’s returned all the way to the Cincinnati 5 and it’s Gesicki running him down. Stripes threw the flag and Cincinnati got 8 points on the next play and conversion.

 

[LionJim]

Washington dominating, 31-6, should be a worse beating and they’re getting ready to score again, at 3 minutes of 3. Browns playing hard but Watson is just awful.

 

[LionJim]

Baltimore just scored, now down 35-38 v Cincinnati, a highlight that will be shown when Jackson retires, wow, insane skill and execution. 5:24 of 3.

 

[troutrus]

Finally a defensive play in Cincinnati As Burrows throws the pick.

 

[LionJim]

Finally a defensive play in Cincinnati As Burrows throws the pick.

Yeah, Chase was 10 for 190 and looked unstoppable. Then Burrows throws the pick, a very poor pass. Burrows had been having a great game up to then. 2 minute warning, Ravens going for the tie or the win, at the Cincinnati 40. Looks like OT at worst for Baltimore, at best for Cincinnati.

 

[troutrus]

And it all comes down to turnovers.

 

[troutrus]

Or a fub by the holder.

 

[BobPSU92]

Geez, the bengals are the bungles again. 1-4. A couple of years ago, they were looking like a top team. What happened?

 

[BobPSU92]

Giants vs. Seahawks

The Giants look like they are going to take the lead, but RB Eric Gray fumbles at the goal line into the end zone. Seattle returns the fumble 101 yards for a TD the other way. 7-0, Seattle.

This play should have given Saquon a good chuckle.

Final: Texans 23, Bills 20

Texans win on a 59-yard field goal as time expires.

Josh Allen today: 9-30, 131 yards, 1 TD. No picks, but that’s still putrid.
