Curious to see this new stadium.
Las Vegas Raiders

It's going to take some time to attune myself to that.

Me too. Then again, I've been calling them the LA Raiders for years, Haha.

That will definitely be my away game for 2021.

From looking at the stadium

I think it’s fair to say that MetLife stadium is the Dave Gettleman of stadiums.
Saints already up 3-0.

Exactly. It isn't like it is tucked away well off the sideline.

Saints TD.

Well, this game is probably over.

Next Monday night...Chiefs @ Ravens...uh, yeah, that's a must watch.
This ESPN crew isn't showing me too much..

And what the hell happened to Sean Payton's neck...lol......it's gone.
The crowd..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 9/21/2020 8:48 pm : link
noise is getting ridiculous. You can't even hear the commentary because the crowd noise is drowning out their explanation of the penalties.

for the Giants to play in Vegas and go. Stadium looks awesome and Vegas is always a hell of a good time. Hopefully the NCAA is willing to have the final four and title games there at some point, would be an amazing host

Stadium does look awesome. What's the deal with tailgating though? I've seen some articles that they're not really allowing it.
Any of these teams in 2020  
Route 9 : 9/21/2020 8:55 pm : link
the Giants are playing on the road allowing fans? Besides Cowboys? I read the Bengals were doing trail runs.
Great to see the..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 9/21/2020 9:21 pm : link
booth know the rules.

You absolutely can be called for intentional grounding if you throw the ball out of the end zone without a receiver around
Woof Brees does not look good two weeks in a row.  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/21/2020 9:44 pm : link
Against a decent defense in TB, but the Raiders? Not a good sign if you are a Saints fan.
decent football game -  
Del Shofner : 9/21/2020 9:49 pm : link
not sure I'm staying up until the end, though.
Can you imagine if we ran on that play right there?  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/21/2020 9:49 pm : link
There would be people here saying that was a fireable offense and would be nitpicked for days.
Now this was hilarious

He is the whole package, a true TE. The Raiders ain't looking too bad...

The Saints Drew Brees isn't looking like the guy we have all grown to know and love. We shall see how he handles himself the 2nd half.

What's going to be interesting is how his arm is the 2nd half of the season. He definitely has had a bit of noodle arm the last couple of 2nd half of the seasons

Waller is not the fastest  
montanagiant : 9/21/2020 11:00 pm : link
EE and Davis are faster but taking into account his size and ability combined with his speed he beats both of them
It is..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 9/21/2020 11:03 pm : link
exposing the Saints a bit here. David Carr has been locked onto Waller on several plays just waiting for him to break open and the saints aren't adjusting
it's really  
MookGiants : 9/21/2020 11:06 pm : link
alarming to watch other games around the league and see how poor the Giants roster is relatively. Every time we take the field this year we will be the least talented team on the field. The Bears roster might be the worst we will face all year outside of Cincy, but I think they're comparable to Cincy.

This team needs a massive talent influx.

Yup, locked in.

Brees doesn't look "comfortable" this year? I don't think it is an age or physical thing but a mental thing.
I'm the Saints, you let your defense get the ball back for you  
SGMen : 9/21/2020 11:14 pm : link
I expect the Raiders to run 3x and force the Saints to call a timeout.

Someone must have enjoyed it, it got played every fifteen minutes on the radio from 2001-2005. I've never met anyone who did but they must exist somewhere.
I like that song

Ouch. That was cold.
Engram was the game's leading receiver for both sides  
shyster : 9/22/2020 1:04 pm : link
with 6 catches for 65 yards, all in the second half.

He had two catches on one Giants' scoring drive; three on another; and a final reception for 22 yards on the last drive that came up just short.

Once a narrative takes hold, a lot of people are too lazy (or inattentive) to acknowledge evidence to the contrary.
Oh, wow. 6 catches for Engram?  
Route 9 : 9/22/2020 11:53 pm : link
Get his HOF bust ready. What is that, an average day at The Office for George Kittle?

Congratulations on doing your job. Did you enter the sale on the website?
Engram played half of last season before  
shyster : 9/23/2020 10:25 am : link
his injury.

He was on pace for 88/934 for the year. Not HOF but not bad either.

Slayton caught 48 balls for the entire season and people here do want to put him in the HOF.

I like Slayton too, but he had a very bad game vs Chicago, only one catch and a stone drop on an important play.

He got no criticism for it because, again, a lot of people follow a narrative of whom they are "supposed" to criticize rather than watching the game.

I dont have all22, but I think they tried to stop Slayton. A few times, I saw Jones want to go deep, but he had to go to a 2nd option. He had a bad drop, agreed, but I think the targets weren't there because they keyed on Slayton as the most dangerous outside of Barkley.
The Bears..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 9/23/2020 10:59 am : link
were playing 2 deep safeties to guard against the deep ball. The intermediate routes should have been open.

Good post, Jim. That’s what I saw..Fwiw.
So a player who you overvalue  
Route 9 : 9/23/2020 2:44 pm : link
and gets critiqued by the gang,

it is now considered... a narrative?
If anything
