I’ve had DAZN for 3 years and I am paying 31.49 a month. I pay monthly and can pause my account at the end of the season. Could this be the reason? (vs a yearly subscription billed monthly)

TNF is still so very very terrible

[Senator Clay Davis]

Always a good call to run a a fake FG sneak two yards out. Why trust your multiple MVP QB?

[ResAlien]

The fire sale is already planned. The discount labels are printed and going on the players after this game. KC can quit screwing around and end this farce any time now.

This game is just practice.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Oh no doubt the Chiefs are showing negative respect right now. Pretty awful game so far.

[KelVarnsen]

Do the Broncos/Russ suck or is Payton a terrible HC?

[Senator Clay Davis]

Maybe it’s me, but I think they played harder for Hackett at this point of the season than they have Payton. Still bad, but at least respectable last year.

Ehhh. It's not wizardry, it's just restructures. Eventually the bill comes due. You're already seeing it with a Saints team that looks objectively terrible but is going to be $70M over the cap next year.

The Eagles did the same #### for years until it caught up to them.

Chiefs are the new Brady-era Patriots with all the BS calls they get.

Lets be clear, the offence has been terrible. Their solid D doesn't deserve to get roped in to that mess. Losing an HOF QB and coach in 1 season is a bigger issue than anything cap-related, a team's window eventually shuts as players age if you're not drafting well. They've missed a LOT on recent high picks on both lines.

I hear ya about the cap, but people have been proclaiming that bill being due for 4 off-seasons now, and it never happens. Sadly Saints ownership is similar to the Flames where they always try to "stay competitive" and won't do a proper rebuild.

[ResAlien]

Patrick when you dive head first you’re allowed to get hit. Cry less. The guy who likes to fake running out of bounds and then go for more yards doesn’t like getting hit. Actually the only thing I can’t stand about him as a player

Yeah, I have the same criticism of the Flames. Cap team with a half-cap roster.

Between ownership always wanting to "be competitive" and never going all-in on a rebuild, the usual slow starts to the season, playoff disappointment, and being in a smaller market that struggles attracting high end UFAs, I definitely feel like I cheer for the same team in both leagues sometimes...it's a problem.

Yeah, I'm a Mariners and Tottenham fan. Basically the only successful team I cheer for is the Eagles.

[Sainters7]

I'm getting a kick out of the massive playbook on Wilson's wrist Payton made him wear after Russ insisted he'd never wear one. Don't try to out-stubborn Sean Payton lol

[Senator Clay Davis]

Speaking of Payton being stubborn, they are running it very well, so let's keep trying to force throwing plays in with our washed QB.

[KelVarnsen]

Russ is cooked

[Senator Clay Davis]

Man #### Andy Reid, forcing us to keep watching this piece of crap because he isn't showing any respect and keeping the Broncos in it. Would be absolutely hilarious is Denver somehow won.

[Sylvanfan]

This whole never sneaking the ball on third and short is ridiculous.
