NFL 2013: WEEK 4

The media used to shit on Owens constantly but I always thought his on-field antics were great for the game. He was a bit of a cancer in the locker room but nobody could ever question his dedication to the game or his work ethic. Remember his performance in the Super Bowl on one leg? Tremendous stuff.

 

The bitches who vote for the hall of fame will probably try to keep him out too despite being one of the most dominant receivers ever.

Well the 49ers offense is rather predictable when Boldin's the only pass catching/field stretching threat currently active (as the rest of the league quickly learned after watching Week 1 vs GB).  It's perfectly logical for opposing defense to key on Kaepernick in this situation and for the offense, in turn, to be moribund when he's trying to do it all himself and failing.

 

Mind you, somehow the Rams still managed to forget to cover Boldin on that TD drive.

Kaepernick (apparently) under orders to be just another pocket passer is absolutely nothing special at all. The constant NFL obsession with trying to turn QB's into something they obviously aren't might be striking again, though you'd hope not in the long run.

 

On some level, I understand that mentality.  When you see RGIII hobbling like a drunk hobo on a bad knee, keeping Kaep safe becomes more of a priority.  Though with his size, Kaep can absorb hits a bit better.

Yeah I get they want to keep these guys healthy but the conversion rate on "guys that have running skills" to "guys under orders not to run who become great" is, like, absurdly low. If you're not prepared to deal with the "5 cool years then ruined by injuries" style why even use those guys to begin with?

 

Anyway, this game... the Rams really make a lot of mistakes. San Fransisco hasn't really been that impressive but the Rams just keep shooting themselves in the foot. Could still be one that comes down to the wire.

Thursday Night Football Every Week is already the NFL trolling us (lol you watch whatever, whenever, you junkies), they're just making it even more obvious tonight.

 

Still quicker than the last minute of a basketball game though.
