Week 9 NFL

[gunnarthor]

Along with the gruesome Daniels injury -

Packers all world TE Kraft out with ACL injury. 
Jags early pick Travis Hunter to IR with knee injury. 
CJ Stroud out w/concussion. 
So did Bears TE Kmet.
Joe Alt carted off field with ankle injury, likely to miss at least a few games. 

This league is tough.

I think Green Bay has fallen into the Kirk Cousins trap with Jordan Love.

The guy is a very good QB, but he's not the kind of gritty, improvisational gunslinger that can put a team on his back for a deep playoff run

Yeah I am curious to know if there is a growing divide on him in the collective fan base. He shows signs of being a good to great QB, then he has plays where he makes really stupid decisions

Yeah, it would be great if he's there for 15 years like Favre and Rodgers, but instead of being a HOF QB, he's just a Jim Everett or a Bernie Kosar.

And I hate to say Jerry Jones was right about something, but I think he was right about Micah Parsons ONLY caring about getting sacks. Jones was still stubborn and stupid for trading him, and the Cowboys are paying for it now, but Parsons is a pretty one dimensional defensive player. 

My packer friend says the coach is the real issue.

Disliking your favorite team's coach is pretty par for the course for 75% of fanbases.

But yeah, I don't like him much either. Matt LaFleur seems to be a Nick Sirianni lite. All of the obnoxious personality traits but with less of the playoff success.

Good to see Dallas stink.
