I want you to get me off this shit and for every one to get there fun watching there own bitch and stop watching me.
how long have i been on this "game "
ringer hit piece because he stood up to Jimmy Kimmel
Hi i love sex my contact)))) here https://vipdeit.com/sex21.html
Giving away an extra play, i.e. 4th down, for the 2nd team, is more valuable than the 65% advantage for the 3rd team, which may or may not occur.
Funny, forgetting how many injuries Browns had too
how badly does Bill Belichick want to pass Don Shula for most career wins?
I've been a loyal listener of "The Ringer NFL Show" for quite some time now, and I have to say, it's hands down one of the best NFL podcasts out there. The depth of analysis, the diverse range of topics they cover, and the engaging discussions between the hosts make it a must-listen for any football fan. https://www.2findlocal.com/b/14927618/sticker-printing-pros-los-angeles-california One thing I particularly appreciate about this show is how they break down complex football concepts into easily digestible segments. Whether it's dissecting the latest game, diving into draft prospects, or discussing league trends, they manage to keep it informative without overwhelming the listener with jargon. https://citysquares.com/b/sticker-printing-pros-25396540
There is no way Herbert is a top 5 QB. He is average at best. He is horrible in clutch games. He missed the playoffs with a bad loss to the raiders and blew a 4TD lead last year to the Jags.
John lynch has made it clear that Trey Lance is unavailable, and all the trade talk was purely outside driven smoke. Also, Brock Purdy’s return is still TBD and there’s a good possibility he isn’t available by week 1. The 49ers have a SB caliber roster, they aren’t going to roll out Sam Darnold or any other QB without any experience running Shannahans offensive. It’s reducible these so called NFL podcast “experts” or “analysts”, or whatever they call themselves, are so oblivious to the roster dynamics of the teams involved in the ludicrous trades they propose. And the fact that hosts of this pod are clueless regarding 49ers makes me question how little is known regarding other teams and trade scenarios. Thanks no thanks. Click “Unsubscribe”.
I will listen to this episode later today at work, but wanted to say that this Blackballed series has been incredible!
Why would the Niners waste money on old Bobby Wagner when they have young and dynamic Dre greenlaw who they just signed to contract extention. Dumb take.
You Said The Colts Need Corners Umm Did Stephon Gilmore Disappear? Is Kenny Moore Not A Top 5 Nickle CB 🤔
Shanahan is overrated af 39-42 in 5 years and only two seasons he's #116th all time in winning %
This episode belonged on CNN+
Steven the NOBODY...Talking shit about Tua!!! Really ok then Definitely Matt Cassel over Mac Jones... Leaf>Herbert too...same amount of playoff wins.... Yall are fucking RACIST 💀 #NFL #Dolphins
Way to skip over your boy Mac Jones 🗑
What Tua had to work with his first 2 seasons tells me that Tua is BY FAR much better QB than Mac and all the things Patriots have #FACTSMATTER
Mac got $159 million to help him 😂🤣😂, Bill is overrated head coach and GM. How much more does this kid need to succeed? top 5 oline top 3 running game...LOL
These guys are the biggest idiots about Flores 🤣🤣🤣....Coaches made Tua good BS he has Worst oline in NFL and Worst rushing offense 😳
