BayRaider Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 The NFC is odd. Bucs make Packers look like High School team, Saints make Bucs look like high school team, Packers closely beat the Saints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sometimes an issue that starts early in a game just snowballs and can't be reversed mid-game. It's like trying to reverse a freight train when it's already charging in one direction.

DannyB Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I think tonight's game highlights a reality that is tough for people to accept about the NFL, especially quarterbacks: Brees and Brady are both old. Their physical skills have diminished some, and will continue to do so. However they still have a variety of other elite skills as they are both Hall of Fame quarterbacks who have seen anything and everything. They are both still capable of great games due to these skills, but are both prone to off games due to their physical drop off. Neither a bad game nor a good game should entirely surprise anybody, and over the 2nd half of the season and into the playoffs, we will surely see a few more of each from both of these guys. Neither of them are going to really be who they were 5 years ago, but their seasons will depend on if they can dig out a good or great performance at the right time.

Wait to week 18 when they beat one of the before mentioned teams in the WC rd and people scream from rooftops about how unfair it is they have a home game.

Neither of them are going to really be who they were 5 years ago, but their seasons will depend on if they can dig out a good or great performance at the right time. I think many people expected an abrupt decline for these guys like the one that Peyton Manning had. But their decline will be more of a "hit and miss" and with significant volatility. Brees is suffering from a declining arm, and Brady's lack of mobility is hurting him more than ever. He just cannot make those little movements he did inside the pocket back in the day that allowed him to step into some throws and evade pressure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all have different views and ideologies. That's ultimately what makes a community so great. IMO, just by reading your posts every week in the general forum in GDT, I think you would be a welcomed addition and a bit of fresh air.
