I could see the Panthers making a run in the playoffs tho

The Pat's defense, the front 7 anyway, kinda scares me you guys.

they just had a three game stretch where

@ lions w 30-23
@ falcons w 14 -7
@ carolina l 31 - 24, but arguably they did more to beat themselves than get outplayed by carolina.

that run should have quelled any fears of their potential ability to win on the road against good teams. they also won two consecutive road games @ browns (in london) and @ washington earlier.

Note: the Vikings clinched their division, so they are guaranteed at least one home game. They also hold the tiebreaker over the Saints, Rams, and Falcons. Plus their last two games are against the Rogers-less Packers and the Bears. So the odds of a road playoff game are becoming increasingly smaller. Plus the Super Bowl is in MN...

Aside from the road wins, let’s not forget the Vikes have also had wins against the Rams (24-7), Saints (29-19), and Ravens (24-16). So it’s not like they’ve been racking up wins against just the scrubs of the NFL. The Vikes are legit this year.

I think the Pats have won two SBs since you last posted.

Changes need to be made. Staring down thirty years of top five all time QB talent by the time Rodgers retires, and may have only two SBs to show for it. Start with firing Capers immediately; it's been long enough.

SKOL

Brontosaurus Brett looked awful last night.

Bills screwed by the refs again, Gilmore PI anyway and Benjamin still got two feet down.

NFL officiating is fucking useless

Yeah, Tampa, play prevent defense. Because that always works. Any coach that plays a prevent at the end of a game should be immediately fired

JFC. 4th and 3, all they have to do is not jump offsides and what does Tampa do? Jump offsides.

If it makes you feel better the Falcons completed the rarely seen drop to Ass to Interception today. Pretty much sums up 2017 or... their entire existence.

And it basically sat on his ass for 5 seconds waiting for anyone to pick it up

Nobody bats an eye over the IR abuses until the Pack put Rodgers back on it. Now everyone wants him released and put on waivers? Pssshh

Why wouldn’t they put him on IR? He broke his collarbone and they are out. Just tell them he’s got a double middle finger contusion.

I'm glad the game got outta hand after that because I can't fathom how they overturned it. If it was close, it'd be all we heard about this week. Rightfully so.

Yeah it definitely didn’t make a difference, but I mean the guy that called the TD in the first place was in better position than the camera. Just annoying to me.
