I’ve watched 12 of the a Steelers games, this is the 5th Saints game I’ve watched with Brees, have watched Brady and the Bucs 5x and have watched Rivers and the Colts 4x


I don’t see any of those teams getting more than 1 playoff win as their QB’s will throw interceptions and give away the big game (this year)...I guess the other playoff QB’s (sans Rodgers no Mahomes) might do the same....but I’ve watched all 4 of the HOFers throw a lot of terrible passes this year, compared to their primes.

As the old saying goes, "Father Time always wins." 

The thing with Rodgers (still) and Mahomes is that they might be able to get away with those type of mistakes and counter with 2-3 more TD's. Like they are a cheat code. 

The other QB's you mentioned have little margin for error. Brees & Brady have looked human this year, and part of last. Rivers looked done last year but has hooked on with a balanced team. Roethlisberger obviously didn't play, started out solid earlier and has been on a downward spiral as of late.

If Kamara is going to be like that then Brees can throw 2-3 picks lol

Oh good....49ers/Cards on Prime video

Love turning on the tv and it means nothing anymore. Gotta have Dish, fire stick, YouTube tv, prime video and everything else now to watch about 15 stations....or you can have any one and miss a 1/3 of the stuff you want to watch.

Anyone else streaming this game? The livestream I am getting from Prime is basically a 1978 picture that is hazy and fuzzy as hell because the antenna needs turned.

I assume everyone’s isn’t that bad or people from Prime are going to get fired. It’s virtually unwatchable.

They were missing a few coaches and defensive players due to the 'rona, weren't they? Apparently the Lions aren't big-time enough for the NFL for alter their schedule for them. Which really shouldn't surprise anyone not named Classy, to be truthful. They're one of a handful of franchises in the league that I can legit see the NFL saying, "Dude, you can either show up and take your L or you can forfeit and then get fined and lose some draft picks for fucking with our TV arrangements -- it really doesn't matter to us..." to.

Not that I don’t mostly agree but my lord a few of those TD players weren’t even trying. Looked like Pro Bowl defense a few times

May as well que up the last two minutes of the 1978 Gator Bowl. See one of the stupidest moments in college football, and the picture is probably better than the one you're seeing now.

Just drop cable, save money, and get a Roku or something.

And get used to Prime. They and Disney+ are the front runners for the next Sunday Ticket deal.

There is 0% chance of getting used to what I tried to watch. I gave up in the 2nd half. I’ve not had any issue with any other streaming. The picture was flat out unwatchable.

It’s almost 2021....I just want things better than 2012. I’m not seeing it.

What I watched went from a crisp Bose sound system to a sparkomatic AM radio...not quite on the station.

I’ll assume when the big shot Amazon gets more games regularly they’ll get it together so everyone can sign on to the livestream and actually enjoy the product.

Good game. Dolphins coach not closed-minded or worried about current feelz. Tua a classy young QB that gets it. Fitz has helped make it all work.

The desired effect of the lengthened XP.  I wonder how the league average on XP conversions compared to the league average on FGs plus or minus 3 yds of XP length.

Smart penalty, to not give the Raiders six plays to run out the clock!

They were offsides on the first play after the 2min warning, but it wasn't called, but the injury stopped the clock!
