Not much to the game but if someone does this to Rofflesburger:
Especially Za'Darius Smith or Brandon Williams (although it's highly unlikely for Williams to do it) manage it, the season wont have been a complete failure.
Bury the fucker
Nice of Johnny Football to get on the field after a turnover and throw it right back to the Chiefs.
Teams are going to have to stop looking towards Marcus Peters, he's a pick magnet.
Shitting on the Steelers
Jimmy Smith
The Steelers have been WRECKED.
101 yard pick 6.
Edit: Defensive offside? Refs want the Steelers in the playoffs.
The Panthers losing to THIS Falcons side is proper fucking lol, there's no chance they'll do anything in the playoffs.
Well, looks like I missed an eventful set of early games
New England & Pittsburgh losing I can see, but how the fuck did Carolina lose to the Falcons?! I know it's another divisional game, but they're awful, and there isn't the fire there like there is in the Steelers/Ravens game to spark a huge performance.
Atlanta getting the ball with about 1:40 remaining and punting it away with about 1;30 to go without Carolina using a time out should have seen them lose by default.
I'm so glad we're playing the Jags
Brees supposedly has plantar fascia issues, Marques Colston is out and Spiller is so shit he's lost his job to three guys picked off the street midway through the season, and yet we're 14-0 up & on the 1yd line.
I'd be trying to get as much as possible for Payton, Brees, Spiller & Browner as possible this offseason. Maybe Colston too. We'd be sacking off next season, especially if we didn't get a decent QB in free agency (I doubt Kirk Cousins or Ryan Fitzpatrick will get there, sadly) or the draft, but a rejig of the coaching staff, a few high round picks stacked up & a shitload of cap money free to throw around would put us in a good position to rebuild and challenge again in a season or two.
I'm surprised you're doing so well.
I wouldn't count the Jags out of this.
I can see the leaky Saints letting Bortles and the two Allens in.
Hopefully that loss derails a lot of the Newton hype.
The Skins topping our division says a lot about it too. Please fire Chip and get someone in who will use Murray properly.
Chip Kelly has to be one of the worst appointments in the NFL in a long time. Utterly ruined that Eagles team.
Glad to see the Panthers lose, they're not as good as they're made out to be.
Imagine how bad it would have been had they given him full control over player transactions before this season.
Aren't the Saints in serious shit with the cap already anyway, Dan?
Yeah, Murray looked pretty good against Washington (except for the fumble, of course). Looked like they'd decided to try & work to his strengths a bit more instead of trying to make him something he's not. There's definitely potential in that offence - I quite like the look of Michael Huff as well - but they just don't quite get it right.
I won't count the Jags out either - we're still playing Brandon Browner, after all - but it's definitely getting harder & harder for them as we keep rolling offensively.
I just look at the players we've moved on for him. Maclin, Jackson, McCoy are the main ones that stick out, but what the hell have we done since?
Brought in an injury prone Alonso who surprise, got injured. Insisted on playing Murray wrongly all season long and trusting Sam Brittle Bones as a starting QB.

Only the Dolphins (how?) are in a worse shape for next year.
Yeah, according to this article they've had problems for a while now. Apparently we have 131 players on our books at the minute, and almost half of them aren't actually Saints players, and because of that we have $32.5m in dead cap money, when the average is about $14m.
Brees, much like Calvin Johnson, really has to restructure his deal or move on. I think Brees is supposed to take something like $30m of cap room next season, which is utterly retarded.
EDIT: Here's a fun game to play. Fix the Saints' salary cap problems.
David Johnson is seriously fucking good. How did it take him so long to get the job?
It's probably a good idea for Brees to move on. He has his ring. He should go somewhere else who has fuck all at QB or gee himself up for one last superbowl push.
Off the top of my head, the 49ers, the Browns and the Eagles(I'd love to see him come to us) don't have any kind of regular QB signed up going into next year.
The Saints already have $14.8 million in dead money on the books for next season, thanks in large part to a $12.1 million charge for the remainder of Galette's deal
Was Galette being paid in straight gold?
He's not even that good and probably wont have a job next season.
Oh and there's a fun fact.
The Packers leading rusher in this game? Tim Masthay their punter.
Edit: Nope, he has their longest rush of the game thus far.
Lacy has a whopping 17 yards on 6 carries.
If we could wrangle some kind of deal where the Redskins or Jets where they pay us for Brees then let their QB go so we can sign them up I'd be delighted.
Cousins or Fitz for half the price of Brees plus a first round pick would be all kinds of awesome. Hell, I'd take the same deal for Bradford, provided he got paid a bit less.
No one is giving up a first rounder for a 37 year old QB who will be hitting the cap for $30m.
You'll be lucky to get a 7th rounder.
Rodgers is having such a shit season.
My NFLinterest only extends as far as thinking Reggie Bush is top.
Just had a look at his wiki and noticed he was released early from his megamoney deal with the Detroit Lions. Howcome?
I'm a twit
Because he hasn't been top for at least 5 years or so.
Because he's shit.
I'm a twit
Here comes the collapse...
EDIT: Hang on, Seattle are losing to the Rams? How do St Louis manage to be so shit & yet win so many divisional games against much better opposition?
Packers give the ball up on the first play of the second half. Cardinals looking good for this one, I'd say.
Saints giving up a 90 yard TD
Brandon Browner giving up the longest play in the league this season
Why are we still playing this man?!
Cory Redding stiff arming Eddie Lacy
What a thing of beauty that was.
Well, things are not going well in Green Bay...
I don't know what's happening with the Packers but it's killing me fantasy wise.
Are they bad or are the Cardinals just that good?
They're decent, but not up to the standards they had been the last few years, particularly on offence. The O-Line & receivers have been poor this season, which has made it hard for Rodgers to do anything other than run around until Richard Rodgers is free & chuck it at him.
Arizona, however, are a team full of beasts.
The Cardinals are that good.
Right on cue Arizona get a sack wiped off for a penalty, followed a few plays later by a sack, then a sack fumble TD. This is getting embarrassing for the Green Bay offensive line.
The Cardinals are dominating them possibly even more than the Broncos did.
Would now be a bad time to say my fantasy opponent has the Cardinals defence?
Most offensive lines see Calais Campbell and shit themselves stupid I'd imagine.
You don't get many defensive ends who are bigger than most linemen.
6 foot 8, 310 pounds who can run a 40 yard dash in 4.85 seconds (at the combine he was 380 pounds so that is even more impressive) and absolutely swallow you whole.
What the fuck is going on with this turnover in the Rams/Seahawks game?
Fumbled by the Rams, Earl Thomas dived on it but didn't get it secured, everyone piled on & it was ruled a recovery by the Rams. Then they changed it to a Seattle recovery. Then they changed it back to the Rams.
Not exactly the best officiating there.
EDIT: Now Gurley's pulled off a disgusting hurdle & fumbled as he landed, and it's recovered by the Rams again
Tim Barnes, the center, recovered both fumbles, and then Gurley put it in the endzone.
Guess who just gave up another TD to a Jags receiver?
Browner
Rams do love turning up for the Hawks games though don't they?
I think I may be starting to fall for the Gurley hype.
Looks like that is about to come to an end after that snap.
Because player evaluation in the NFL is hard, because dressing room management is hard, because people as arrogant as NFL coaches admitted they screwed up for 12 weeks by having that kind of talent on the bench is rare.
I still think Kelly's a great coach - his systems work, there's no doubt about that - he just shouldn't be allowed anywhere near player management. Too confident in his own ability when it comes to player projection.
Rams snapped a 62 game streak of the Seahawks leading at some point in the game.
Woof.
It really is a thing of beauty.
Fatman interceptions/recoveries when they get to run are always great.
