Yep. Was obvious. The RedSkins are crap.

Oh and let's all lol at Desean Jackson for, once again, forgetting to take the ball all the way to the end zone.

That's the greatest one though, although the fumble before crossing the goal line runs it close.

I'll be all over that.
Hopefully Sky shows it. I highly doubt it.
We interviewed Coughlin today which makes 6 interviews and 5 candidates left. I'm not sure there is anyone else lined up. They were on about the Bengals defensive coordinator but I'm not all too sold on that.
Indeed, I'll just download it though.

Burfict suspended for three games.
No fucking about there.
Yeah definitely the defensive. There's no interview officially announced though so we might not even do that. Jackson is supposedly to be offered the 49ers job today but may want to wait on the Giants.
In other news the team to LA meeting starts today. Rumors are that the Rams are currently the only ones that are likely to get the required 24 votes to move. The other proposal going in is to have the Chargers and Raiders share a stadium. The concern for this one is teams not being certain on how the Raiders will hold up after the move.
The Cowboys are to propose that the Rams and the Chargers move and share together as that plan would prove very popular. Either way we could have 0, 1 or 2 LA based teams by the end of Wednesday.
National Championship highlights (not wonderful ones at that).

Denver at home with a REVITALISED Peyton Manning against a "banged up" Steelers who are the lowest seed.
Can't think of a single way for this to disastrously wrong.
40 Peyton interceptions, please? :thbup:
He can't throw more interceptions than passes, silly.
23 interceptions.
I'm thinking he'll make it through the Steelers game. Just. But then the Manning hype train will completely de-rail in the championship game.
Don't forget the fumbles in the running game, and then Osweiler being brought on with a pat on the back once Denver are 17 points down in the fourth quarter.
(That's (obviously? :uhoh:) not going to happen but I don't have a good feeling about this weekend because it feels too much like a should-win.)
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...option-to-join
The LA Rams are back.
Chargers have the option to share the stadium if they so choose.
Chargers have a year to decide to join or not. Should they reject a move, the Raiders will get the offer instead.
Both the Chargers and Raiders will be given $100m if they can build themselves a new stadium.
Understandably St. Louis are a bit pissed but this was all pretty obviously coming. They had apparently offered a $1.1bn project to the Rams for a new home on the water front. There's murmurings that the Chargers could be offered this deal to go to St Louis, but it's complicated by the upcoming vote in San Diego. Said vote is to decide whether the city will provide $350m to the team to build them a new place in San Diego.
Thank fuck for that! I'd grown sick fed up of this LA shit for the entirety of my time watching NFL so that it's a) happening and b) nearly completely resolved is a god send.
NFL network probably imploded from having something extra to wank off about.
Started supporting the rams as a young kid back in their LA days. So with the return meaning probably more media coverage and far more chance of visiting the city I'm pretty happy. Pretty crappy on St Louis though
Browns have hired Hue Jackson and given him 'significant personnel control' which many are taking to believe that he'll punt Johnny Dickhead out the door.
So how will McAdoo-do-do? :checkit:
I'm hoping for some kind of advisor to come in and mentor those two because Spags was an absolute catastrophe in St Louis as head coach.
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...-as-head-coach
Chip Kelly is now 49ers head coach.
In other news, Coughlin has withdrawn his application to the Eagles. We've now missed out on our 2 top targets. I hope we don't go and make a panic appointment.
We've apparently all but hired Doug Pederson, to be announced after the Chiefs go out of the play offs.
Antonio Brown is also out for this weekend.
The media are wanking themselves furiously at the prospect of Colin Dickhead in 'THE SYSTEM'.
Even if he plays it will be amazing when they realise he can't pass for shit again.
It'll start well, but then it will dawn on them that they don't have a good QB, or any WRs.
It looks like Johnny Football has finally burnt his last bridge in Cleveland. It was a clause of Jackson taking the job that he goes.
I'll still laugh at Chip Kelly's shambles but it's not in the same division as the Giants so I won't be as enthused as I was at the Eagles shambles.
Antonio Brown out with Concussion.
Broncos to run roit.
Should of saw Fox's post earlier :moop: Big Ben still questionable I imagine?
Big Ben will play unless he tears his arm off in training. He's limited but looking at the end of the Bengals game he'll be fine.
Yeah, Ben will start but it wont take long for Miller or Demarcus Ware to take him out of the game.
Gents staying up to watch Chiefs vs Pats tonight and Green bay vs Arizona?
I'm going to watch the first and record the second. Think the first one could be a good contest, but feel like the packers will crumble against the cardinals.
I'll be watching both if I can. The first most certainly.
I think the Patriots and the Cardinals are both going through. Chiefs are on a roll, but they lack any punch on offense without Maclin, while the Patriots are just getting players back from injury. Of course the Chiefs defense is fantastic so it will be very close.
Packers will probably play well in Arizona, but they have a worse team in just about every position but QB. That all being said, it's the play-offs and anything can happen.
Yeah, I'll probably watch the early game, but I'll have to bail on the second as I have to work tomorrow :(
Hoping for a Chiefs upset & a Cardinals win, but it'll probably be Pats/Cards, and the chances of a Packers win are greater than expected before last weeks game.
EDIT: Maclin's active, although I can't imagine he'll make much of an impact. They'll need a big game from Spencer Ware/Alex Smith, or a monster game from the defence, I feel.
I've had the Cardinals in the sweepstakes from before the start of the season, so I'll hoping for a win for them.
Should they keep Rodgers planted in the pocket, they should be good.
Smith fooled the camera man on that 3rd and 13. :D
Someone needs to smash Brady in the face. He's really easy to hate.
I was expecting a very close game here. The limitations of the Chiefs passing offense is very clear though.
So much time wasted in this drive, pissing hell.
They deserve nothing on this. They've wasted at least a minute of game clock on this drive.
Never seen a team go into a huddle in a 2 minute drill.
What the fuck is this clock management?
This is all out panic I think.
Over 5 minutes for that drive...
They also could have used timeouts before the 2 minute warning and been able to kick it to New England and hope their defence stops them.
Kicking the onside kick right to Gronk.
Smart.
You can tell which team is used to playing in the play-offs here.
