    Do you always get what you want?

    Never. :D

    If there is one true takeaway from week one is that the college spread offense is creating havoc with the technique of young NFL offensive linesman, especially tackles. With teams adopting the Wade Phillips/Broncos stud edge rushers concept, QB's are getting hammered due to a lack of skills.

    Can anybody tell me what Zeke did and point me to the evidence of his guilt? Again if he did something wrong and there is evidence of his guilt than throw the book at him, but if this is a makeup call for Goodell then he has to go.

    Goodell acted against the NFL's lead investigators advice so why did he do that?

    You all haven't figured it out yet. Goodell knows controversy is good for the NFL. Everyone has an opinion on football and anything that affects football. There is no reason to his actions other than to drag them out as long as possible to keep people talking about the NFL.

    Why invest in a run game when your O-Line is hot garbage?

    IMO, we have decent running backs, but ZERO blocking and gaps for them to take advantage of. It's hard to make a difference when you're getting hit in the back field NON STOP...

    As for Eli, it's well past time to move on from him. There is basically zero chance of winning another championship with Eli at the drivers seat. I also have a sneaky suspicion that Eli is hiding a nagging injury.

    The NFL IS NOT a court of law. Fact is, Zeke has been accused of THREE suspendible occurrences.

    This is the NFL sending a serious, and needed message to young players. Clean up your act and DO NOT put yourself in a position to even be accused of something. It's bad press for the NFL. Bad press = headaches.

    Headaches = suspensions/fines

    Zeke needs to learn the value in staying in for the evening...

    Zeke has A LOT of talent, but he MUST get his personal life under control.

    Now THERE'S some football !
    Injuries ? I'm sorry, that's not allowed.

    Yeah, broken ribs will kind of do that.
