Some cappers actually do better on preseason than reg season cause you can get info on whos playing, how long etc.

Yea problem is THEY bet it as soon as they get the info.
But then when they release it it then spreads like wildfire so if you dont get the bet in sometimes even within 5 mins the line can already move 1 pt or more & obviously once that happens its missing the boat.

Great news, no structural damage to his knee so he's considered day-to-day.

True i noticed that when i would search for tips and couldn't find the right lines . I'm a noob at it so i tread lightly, mainly used up their free idiot bets to get people hooked so far but it got both my fanduel and draftkings account loaded with about 500 dollars in each account for me to have fun with this season.

Can't blame Nike for this. The design of these modern helmets is forcing logos onto the back half of the helmet. The facemask and snap push the logos backwards. the vent at the top 'x' marks the crown where the logo should be centered under. Same happened w/
@Seahawks' throwback.

I wasn't blaming Nike and see why the logos are positioned the way they are but it still looks dumb. I don't think anyone would complain if there was overlap with the logo and the edges of the facemask. Since everyone wears a different style of helmet, I don't see it as being a widespread ugly aesthetic, just these promo pics they should've used different helmet styles or just angled them differently.

They should bookend the season with the throwback jerseys. Weeks 1 and 18, every team wears their retros.

good idea in general. I am one of the few Niner fans who don't like the mid 90's throwback though. they always just looked to gaudy for me.

I don’t mind the 90’s, but the 80’s unis would be my preferred choice.

Nah, I know you weren't...it was just a commentary on the logo positioning from one of the better uniform/helmet accounts on Twitter, err, X hence the italics.

I was never crazy about the helmet and uniform design when they added to black outline to the helmet logo and the jersey numbers. The 80s ones were where it's at.

Seahawks signed Uchenna Nwosu to a three year $59m extension.

A big NO!!! to Green Bay's throw back unis

[dcowboy7]

Yea some teams throwbacks like those packers or the steelers with the bumblebee or the bears with the red go too far back in time when the unis were bad....throwbacks should just stick to that 80s 90s era.

I think most teams want to use the throwbacks before December because otherwise if theyre wearing it in a game where the team is eliminated or it's a meaningless game it kinda takes something away from it which could happen wk18.

The only thing I feel good about this offseason is signing Stephon Gillmore to shore up the secondary. Losing Zeke is going to cost us. He was still one of the best short yardage and goal line backs.

Brandon Cooks will have a big game then pull his hamstring in the next one.

Little Billy *watches old Redskins Super Bowl clips*: "Why isn't the team from DC that won 3 Super Bowls called the Redskins, anymore? I'm confused."
Football Guru: "Their old team name was a racial slur against Native Americans and they've just now after all this time decided that that shit ain't cool in the year 2021."
Little Billy: "Okay, but why aren't they called the Commanders, anymore? Why did they change their name again?"
Football Guru: "I don't know, ask their indecisive GM, Martin Mayhew!"

I'm of the opinion that championship teams shouldn't change their name in any sport unless you have a damn good reason for doing so. The Redskins name/history you can grandfather away with the race card in the minds of most fans (even though the box scores and the NFL.com SB history page says Redskins under all their SBs), but this'll put a damper on all their playoff successes where it matters most (as if that didn't already muddy those waters enough). The Redskins, WFT, Commanders and whatever they (potentially?) decide to change their name to next may all technically "be" the same regime, but the history books don't acknowledge as much.
