nôbôdy CARÊS àbôut FÖÖTßALL: 2020 RÊGULAR séàsôn THRÊAD

but where do I watch this pats game?

Kinda excited about my Fins off-season moves

I was interested in the pre-game stuff today, but promptly switched off the crappy local games and put on NBA.

Some pretty surreal sights to digest.

gilmore!!

Fins hanging in there but jfc Fitz is killing us with the picks

i know miami is always a tough game but this is going to be miserable if the pats offense is as frustrating as last year even w/cam in there. they.. didn't actually get any more receivers did they??

Gilmore PIing like a mofo

There's the Fitzpatrick i know.

•dàllàsCÖWßÖYS•

Patriots get away with major non-PI call on that pick.

Honestly they didn't look impressive today. It was Miami

•bràdyMUSThàvéWATCHÊDthàtCAMnéwtônGAMĚ•

Tampa Bay do not appear to have gotten a whole lot better

Nice of Detroit to treat their fans to a soul crushing “only the fuckin Lions” loss on Week 1

I mean blowing a big lead to Mitch Tittiess in the 4th is pretty standard but dropping the game winning score was a nice touch

•thisISthéWÖRSTtwôM1NUTÊdr1llIVÊseenS1NCÊthéLASTcôwbôysPR1MĚt1mêGAMĚwtf•

Mike McCarthy trying to run a 2-minute drill without Aaron Rodgers lmao

saquon barkley: 15 carries for 6 yards with a long of 7

that INT following an 8.5 minute drive and 88 yards was about as devastating as they come

especially if you bet the under

I enjoyed watching a bit of Brady realizing the grass is not always greener.

It would be hilarious if the Pats end up winning it all with Cam running the ball 15-20 times a game.

Got to love Lions grasping defeat out of the jaws of victory. Just as a reminder, Matt Patricia is now 9-32-1 as Lions head coach and Jim Caldwell was fired after going 9-7 in his last season (36-28 overall).

Good game!!

Fucking power outage at Hard Rock Stadium (CBS) means i lost the Fins game 15 mins ago and have to suffer through Steelers.

Missed a TD.

The injuries today are BRUTAL

scene report: the Vikings are bad

Miami is winning!!

Nevermind

WHat the fuck were the Falcons thinking on that onside kick attempt? They knew they could touch it right?

They're afraid to have leads ever since SB

onside kick without a tee, even!

that was amazing; too bad it benefited the cowboys. fire your special-teams coach, falcons

btw why were so many teams wearing white at home

Bmore looks really good.

Both NY teams 0-2 and not good at all.

Rofflesburger made a couple nice tosses I saw in the first game. He does look like he has lost some weight.

xxp yea I don't think I've ever seen an onside kick like that. thing just spun forever

ilx: “nobody cares about football!”

real life:

this Vikings season is going to get ugly

Bills vs. Bears - most delusional 2-0 club?

I have not seen either one play yet.

Bills, other than weirdly making Miami look good at moving the football, look like a pretty legit club offensively and could be for real.

i don't know about a bear

28-3 about to get a sequel

Falcon's keeping their club tradition of grasping defeat out of the jaws of victory. You could see it coming after the first touchdown and the second three and out. There was all sorts of guys throwing up deer in the headlights eyes on that club. What the hell you thinking trying to go deep that many times and stop the clock? This is why you get a defensive coach to run the club, offensive coaches are f-ing morans at times in their football sense.

It is also another chapter in Bears winning ugly football tradition too. Nick Foles looked like crap until the end of the game, really worse than Mitch.

and not stop the clock...

Really stupid tie between Bengals and Eagles. Neither team wanted to win

The Falcons thing is just so pathetic. It’s like they’re cursed. I remember after the Super Bowl the prevailing take was “oh well, this is probably Bradys last rodeo, and the Falcons will be good for a while..”

Speaking of Brady’s Bucs looking pretty good rn

very weird first half for cowboys-seahawks

Looking like it’s gonna be a weird second half too lmao

safeties should be worth more points. i’m thinking four

Safeties should immediately end tge game

*the

It's not a curse, it's dumb as a damn brick football. You got a 10 point lead with 5 minutes to go, RUN THE DAMN BALL. 3x 3 and outs and Ryan went 0-6 and if you were watching, they twice went for big homerun balls and a couple more on like 14-15 yard outs.

Bears did not even have to use ANY timeouts in this situation.

Falcons also had 3 dumb hit 15 yard penalties on defense/special teams, so while I scorch their offensive ineptitude, it really was a team effort. I guess you might say the one was a bit the guy cutting down, but Falcon DB was leading with his helmet.

Hey, i'm a Bears fans and I saw this happening and called it to my girlfriend. They definitely choked, lots of crazy 'it's happening again' on multiple players.

hatcats leading the nfc east at 1-2

unfortunate that dallas isn't 0-3

ny teams are 0-6 with a -98 point differential

think we might see some coaches fired here shortly

NFL might be better without the fans, it cuts down on the other chitchat and focuses on the field.

First couple of weeks I grazed by for a few minutes. I watched 3/4 of the Bears/Falcons game this week and Dallas/Seattle was on where I went tonight.

holy shit that touchdown run

holy shit that first down call, no fucking way

with all the talk about the importance of crowd noise and what a difference the lack of it makes . . . maybe they should let us experience it

you mean 750 people don't sound like that??!!!

we were joking that they needed custom effects for the Philly game and that the boos were too quiet

lamar jackson, 15/28, 97 passing yards

week four and all the posts for the season still fit on one page

nobody even mentioned the Titans' covid outbreak

i didn't even know until you mentioned it here!

https://www.sportsnet.ca/nfl/article/titans-receive-eight-new-positive-covid-19-results/

but the show must go on!

Goodell put out a press release saying not to worry, it's just the long snapper

man, 8 long snappers, that's some depth you don't usually see!

you can never have too many

I was doubtful when the NBA came back, but after the first game I watched I was ecstatic. It was like a lifeline to pre-COVID life. I didn't get that feeling watching the first week of NFL. The piped-in crowd noise, pointless season-ending injuries, and boring predictability of (most of) the games have had me feeling less enthusiastic every week. There have been a few entertaining games, though.

tonight's game should bring back your enthusiasm

Patriots’ QB Cam Newton tested positive and is out for Sunday’s game vs. Kansas City, per @FieldYates and me.

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) October 3, 2020

Thank you Donald Trump for singlehandedly bringing back football

and now the game is postponed

Holy shit Odell

Just for the historical record, I would like to state at this exact moment in time, the Cleveland Browns actually look pretty decent

See: that 2 point conversion, that’s the kind of random bullshit that happens TO Cleveland, not for them

new team who dis, as the kids say

really too bad that the nfc east teams get to play each other

Nick Foles is not accurate. Bears just need to go old skool Tom Landry or like college coaches used to do all the time and swap them out if they get cold.

They should have pulled Foles in the 4th quarter, as they were lifeless and the Colts defense was shuttering them in. I think having a bit of mobility at QB might have busted a play open.

Neither one is all that good, I don't think Foles has done any more than Mitch T. with the Bears.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Colts play some good clubs, as they look pretty stout on both lines and have some good players on D.

Cowboys defense is shredded. Cleveland pushed them around like they had Jim Brown running yesterday.

there's gotta be a reason foles couldn't beat out mitch in training camp

Bill O’Brien fired, finally.

his play calling was so bad yesterday

Dak, holy shit

I would advise y’all not to watch that

yeah, that shook me up

He’s such a legitimately likable athlete, seeing him get carted off like that really hurt

Especially given his contract situation, just shitty all around

I had to walk away from the television for a while, no need to see any replays of that

another chapter added to the epic legacy of andy dalton

So my Fins played today

wow brutal loss for the Vikings

russell wilson can have that effect on other teams

lol idaf about advanced analytics, any Vikings fan knew exactly what was going to happen the minutes they decided to go for it on 4th. like write that shit on a stone tablet.

yeah if there's a such thing as late-game mojo the Seahawks have it and the Vikings very much do not

the jets are just astonishingly bad; can't see gase surviving past tomorrow

Yup. Was a nice bye week for us.

mookie, i’ve had that thought for 6 straight weeks

the johnsons are just absurdly negligent as owners

getting Peyton's Super Bowl Broncos vibes from the Bucs

wonder how many games the nfc east would win if they could call a restart to the season and merge into one 55-man superteam. they’d have tons of depth defensively but it would take away their greatest advantage, which is getting to play the nfc east all the time. i’d say 8 games

— Jon Bois (@jon_bois) October 20, 2020

Cowboys with the most points allowed in the first 6 games for the last....50 years? dunno couldn't quite read the graphic

funniest thing about this game was the reveal that Andy Dalton will make a million bucks if the Cowboys limp into the playoffs at 6-10

i get that firing gase won't necessarily make things better -- especially if greggg williams were to become interim coach -- but i see no likely wins in the jets' remaining 10 games

Oct 25 vs Buffalo
Nov 01 @ Kansas City
Nov 09 vs New England
Nov 22 @ LA Chargers
Nov 29 vs Miami
Dec 06 vs Las Vegas
Dec 13 @ Seattle
Dec 20 @ LA Rams
Dec 27 vs Cleveland
Jan 03 @ New England 

god if not for Mike McCarthy, Aaron Rodgers would have 7 rings by now

lol

#Cowboys players initially bought into keeping things internal. Now as they sit 2-4 the discontent is leaking out. On the coaching staff “totally unprepared. They don’t teach. They don’t have any sense of adjusting on the fly.” Another “they just aren’t good at their jobs”

is mike mccarthy even going to survive the season

Um his team is contending for a playoff spot right now

dak might’ve been papering over the fact that the boys are the worst team in the division

Maybe this is just me but I think if you lose to something called “Washington Football Team” it should count as 2 losses. Not that this would really affect their playoff standing much.

Cam is v not good

cowboys didn't just lose to the WFT, they got fucking smoked. outgained 397 yards to 142!

Browns/Bengals game was as usual, very entertaining.

Joe Burrow has a f-in' cannon. He can throw a football. Bengals better draft O-line until they got a wall in front of him.

Got to say Mayfield made some throws today too, that TD winner was really good.

end of the Falcons game was pretty nuts too, weird to see a team lose that way

Matt Stafford would be a big star if on a good club and not the Lions.

yeah I've always thought he was like 95% Favre

my good friend is a Bengals fan and I felt bad for how their defense collapsed and lead to another loss, but secretly I was very happy for the Browns to get to 5-2.

every game the Seahawks play is fucking insane

they went from a WP of 95.1% to 7.5% to 74.8% and then 0%

bonkers game

Love this

https://defector.com/al-michaels-and-the-price-of-comfort/

it's Tua time!

defense looking solid so far!

Welcome to the NFL, Tua. Brutal fumble

TUA FIRST TD

Miami's D giving Rams trouble

Goff stripped, 90 yard fumble return.

Miami D has 4 passes defensed, a pick, forced fumble, a TD. only TD surrendered happened on a short field

Punt return for TD. 21-7.

Tua hasn't been on the field in a while

Goff another pick, and a fumble lost.

28-7 Miami.

I am crying.

they have 54 total yards and two turnovers and are up 18 at the half smh

lol mostly because they've barely had to be on offense due to the two defensive-inspired TDs in a minute and a half.

Tua started shaky, with the strip-sack, but his last two throws were on the money to Preston Williams and he dropped both.

he's definitely gonna need a learning curve tho

his TD pass was perfect tho.

also Patriots down 14-6 o_O

not understanding why the Dolphins have run trick plays on consecutive drives. both led to the end of the series and Tua was doing fine in the set offense.

still up 18, but you don't wanna act like this is wrapped up already.

then again, if Goff keeps playing like this, it isn't gonna matter. another punt. Miami secondary has solved the passing game.

Patriots are 2-5.

can't even remember the last time.

Miami is 4-3.

did not see that coming after the 0-2 start.

Tua didn't do much but he went from tying the game to having a 3 touchdown lead in a minute and a half, so not shocked.

Packers choke to the Vikes, kinda surprised at that.

Bengals finally hold on. Burrow is a good QB.

Steelers/ravens was good. exciting final minute.

Don’t wanna make excuses but inexplicably picking up that PI flag on 4th down kinda destroyed GBs chances

the Jets have a point differential of -144 right now

at the current pace, they would set the record by one point.

jets were 19.5-point underdogs and it wasn't enough

for a while I wondered if the Chiefs would cover

the only good teams are kansas city and russell wilson

I got to hand it to the Dolphins coach Flores for the turnaround. They were looking laughably bad and heading towards an all-time terrible club and pulled out and played .500 ball after like their first 4 games. Now they are seemingly in a legit chance to make the playoffs.

Cowboys D-line is so, so sad. I got to think going to a 3-4 from a 4-3 has caught them without the unmovable nose tackle so important in that scheme. The interior linemen are just getting pummeled and every running back is at the second level before they are touched. Teams will have to play down to get beat by them, which Philly was on it's way for a bit. I think the Cowboys got a couple of Dbacks and that one linebacker is a ball hawk and a 1/2. Until they get a big road grater that can fill up some space on the line to free up their linebackers, they are going to get roasted on the ground.

learning of antoine winfield junior on the buccs last night made me feel p old

packers are just whooping ass on TNF today man this might be a great night

Tua having a solid game

OMG WE WON

Mike McCarthy is pretty much a moron that won because he had Aaron Rodgers and a decent defense. Cowboy's rookie QB Gilbert played a good game but the Steelers pretty much in the second half were blitzing every play, so what does offensive genius keep doing - every play all the Dallas guys are going out like 10-15 yards and his QB is getting teed off as they are clobbering him before his guys don

CHANGE MF'er - ADAPT OR DIE. Use a quick slant or a screen or get the QB moving out of the pocket - don't just run the same BS over and over and expect something to work that is obviously not doing so.

Cowboys also seemed to realize, huh we got people to run a 4-3, let's try running a 4-3 and they actually played pretty good today.

Jerrah deserves morons like this as coach.

clobbering him before his guys get open...

That was an absolutely brutal loss for the Chargers.

Good we play em next week.

Also go Raiders

aints

Has Brady ever been down 28?

Btw I’m guessing nobody watched it but the Panthers put together one of the worst final drives I’ve ever seen...down 2 with 90 seconds and no timeouts, they called like 4 passes down the middle and then kicked a 67 yard field goal which was so far off it nearly hit someone in the crowd

man this might be the worst game of Brady's career. his spirit is so broken right now

you hate to see it

got it within 35

Bucs ground game with 8 total yards!

Only 4 attempts lowest in history

J-E-T-S

is Gase trying to get fired

Adam "Bialystock" Gase

he’s doing too good a job failing to get fired

with Gase, WYSIWYG, so if they're expecting improvement...

now that woody's back from his duties abroad i'm sure the j-e-t-s will be looking to hire dick vermeil

The Jets fall to 0-9 for the first time in franchise history.

There truly is a tweet for everything.

Joe Flacco is Vinnie Testeverde on better teams over most of his career. Flacco could run pretty good when was younger.

14-0 but our fuckin' center has the yips

Brownie where r u? You're 6-3!!!

nurse, I'm up!

<3!!

lol this game had old Browns written in the sky. Watson drives down and makes it 10-7 with 5 minutes left. On the ensuing kickoff the Browns returner muffs it and luckily recovers it on his own 3 yard line. Perfect opportunity to go three and out and give the game back to the Texans.

The Browns then ran the ball 7 straight times and the clock did yet expire on the Texans from Houston.

Nick Chubb is a GOD.

HOPKINS WOW

Why is Green Bay running the most conservative offense in the world today

probably the weather, it was fucking miserable today

Burrow injury is heartbreaking

Browns 7-3

Titans-Ravens destined for OT, but man was that some piss poor defending by BAL on the last drive

That AJ Brown TD was nuts. Like Tecmo Bowl shit

The Cleveland Browns are 7-3.

wow the Broncos just reenacted "the Fumble".

Be proud Browns fans. Am rooting for you

Lol otm brownie. Btw i am having a heart attack

Holy fuck the Packers have fallen apart in the 2nd half

welp, Fitzmagic

the chargers really can’t help but be themselves

I fucking hate Fitzpatrick

lol this packers game is just penalty after penalty. four in a row on the Colts?

Five

jesus even after five penalties in a row they still made a first down!

Only one accepted penalty

Two were pre snaps on the Packers

Lol just committed two more

These are real obvious ones too. What the hell is going on

Okay I’ve definitely seen that get called a fumble before but these refs will get murdered if they call it now

holy mackeral

One more of those

someone named PJ Walker played quarterback for the Panthers today

Well that was a dumb ending

Dunno if I’ve ever been more frustrated watching a football game than that 2014 NFCCG

There was a 4th and 26

Ok tbf I was way more into Magic cards than football back then but yes I remember that well

My Manitowoc friend flipped me off when I said LOL IT'S 4TH AND 26

sounds about right...Manitowoc people can be pretty gnarly when the Pack lose

so beautiful

Giants - winnable games - Cincy & Dallas
Eagles - Dallas & Washington
Dallas- Washington, Cincy, Philly & Giants
Football Club- Dallas, Carolina (maybe), Philly.

Anything else would be an upset. Kinda looks like Dallas might have inside path to win the worst division crown by winning in the lEast.

Well there’s gonna be one very interesting game tomorrow

both nfl and ncaa devolving into clusterfucks as expected

Elway time

was gonna ask who he's playing with these days

his lil Bronco

Tebow hasn’t been signed yet

iirc broncos playoff hero tim tebow is available

xp lol

I've been boycotting NFL for a while now but I think I'm gonna have to tune in to that game. The Saints are starting Taysom Hill, who has never thrown a touchdown pass in the NFL.

I got em as 17.5 point underdogs. This may be the dumbest bet I’ve made this year but Saints may not even score 17

the jets had 25 offensive drives against the dolphins this year

they went 5-for-30 on third-down conversions and scored three points

Weren’t people talking about the Bucs as Super Bowl contenders like 2 weeks ago

Mahomes on pace for 1000 yards passing

Kendall Hinton 1/9 13

Yay Miami.

Unfortunately one of my asshole friends spoiled it (the Orlando City soccer playoff match was same time and I taped the Fins to watch after and told him not to spoil it. Fuckin dick)

Brownie! You're 8-3!

Brady's season high for INTs is only 14. He's at 11 right now

he doesn't look even as good as he was last year

can't believe the Bears were 5-1 at one point

Mitch Tittiess fucking sucks. I don't think I've seen a worse starter who wasn't on the Jets

taysom hill barely put up better numbers than a practice squad wide receiver

yeah but he's not the starter

hill is starting now right?

perhaps I should clarify - he's the worst QB I've ever seen a team willingly make their #1 starter

the whole thing is so odd, I felt like Jameis was a great dice roll for the Saints with Brees on his last legs, he has his problems but the high end raw talent is there, he's only 26. he has the arm to run a Brees offense and I thought maybe Payton would be able to help him tighten up decision making and interceptions.

They’re paying hill a ton of money so I’m sure they want to use him. Also they won both starts pretty handily

ravens-steelers postponed a third time

adam schefter thinks the NFL is doing a great job

so is there evidence that the Ravens were following the 'rules and protocols', lest the NFL be accused of being arbitrary re: the Broncos scenario

also why don't they move it to the 'optional week 18'

apparently the ravens followed the protocols properly? oddly, this hasn't resulted in revisiting them, as they clearly aren't working

at some point you'd think some level of pennsylvania government would tell the scurvy-ass ravens to stay out of their jurisdiction, but i guess pittsburgh cares more about pro football than santa clara county

even if we all die this season must continue and it has nothing to do with the fact that the Browns are 8-3* and everything to do with the fact that this country needs football to see us through these uncertain times

*it has everything to do with the fact that the Browns 8-3

i could go 8-3 too if i played the browns' schedule

well, maybe 7-4

you could take a long walk off a short pier!

NFL has been a clown show under Goodell, maybe if we ever get a real commissioner this league'll straighten out.

not that Tagliabue didn't do his fucked share of things

my Fins being 7-4 (and actually having to beat playoff contenders to do it) has raised my spirits a bit, but the league is going to have a shit ton of problems on their hands if they keep mishandling COVID

God forbid the season can't be pushed back!

The Super Bowl in March sounds pretty good (that's Baker Mayfield's favorite month, because it signals renewal).

Also, I thought the Dolphins were tanking this year!

that was last year. but I thought this year was another down year when we started 1-3!

can we ban the NFC East from sending a team to the playoffs

It's kinda neat that literally every game in that division has playoff implications.

Dalton's back!

my mother is a Giants fan and she has kinda stopped watching them a) cos they don't air the games here and she doesn't know how to watch pirate feeds, and b) they're 'terrible', but it's like....somehow they're in first place, so they could be one of teh first teams to have fans ignoring them due to how terrible they are despite them vying for an undeserved playoff spot

I think a lot of smart bettors were going big on the Giants when the odds were a lot longer

i'm going to assume that no team to start 0-5 or 1-7 has ever made the playoffs, let alone won a division

1992 Chargers started 0-4 and finished 11-5, but yeah I don't think anybody did it after starting 0-5!

― frogbs, Sunday, November 29, 2020 9:23 PM (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink

it occurs to me that I might have forgotten about Carson Wentz

truly painful

This is the worst season I can remember. Every team seems legit bad. Even the Chiefs if not for Mahomes and Hill don't seem that impressive to me. Yet, the meta stories have been really interesting. I find myself enjoying the podcasts and talk shows more entertaining than the games. I half wonder if there is going to be some kind of mass player walk-out and the season will be canceled before the playoffs. Even if nothing like that happens, in most fans' minds there's going to be a huge asterisk next to every stat from 2020.

Also, I hope the Bears fire everybody.

someone was spreading rumors that the ravens players might simply refuse to play tomorrow, which would be v. interesting

idk I'm pretty impressed by the Chiefs, they've got the one offense where you just keep throwing your hands up going "can't do anything about that". I do get what you're saying though. every year there's one utterly unconvincing team that goes 11-5 and loses by 25 in the playoffs. this year there's like 6 of them. idk what to make of the 10-0 Steelers either, I don't see why they've been so dominating this year.

steelers have played an extremely weak schedule and came close to losing to several terrible teams

but i guess their defense is pretty good

yeah Chiefs are solid. their game against the Raiders proved that IMO.

I'm not sold on the Steelers being "undefeated" good. This isn't the best Tomlin Steelers team. but in a year where you have no preseason, if you're a squad with relative continuity at coaching and in your sexy positions, and you can emerge 4-0 after the first quarter of your season, you could then play about as well as an 11-5 team from then on out (good-to-great, not amazing) and technically still be undefeated.

they will eventually lose one though.

Jets, otoh, are definitely winless level bad

I'll stan for my Dolphins, though. Our last two playoff teams, one of them was purely due to a gimmick (the wildcat offense who protected the football well), and 2016, I can't even tell you how that team made the playoffs other than the sheer will of Ryan Tannehill and a few skill positions.

this year, it's the defense. they're ball hawks, they generate good pressure, they cover downfield well, and really it's just the linebackers who are the weak link (and even there, Van Noy and Van Ginkel are good, they just struggle with coverage across middle of the field).

yeah Chiefs are solid. their game against the Raiders proved that IMO.

That game left me with the opposite impression. The Raiders aren't good.

the Raiders aren't a contender but how you perform under duress says a lot about one's team.

I just feel like they shouldn't have been under duress in the first place. Did you see the Raiders yesterday?

The Steelers also seem like the same team they are every year, just that everybody else is less good than they have been.

Great teams occasionally trailing lesser teams on the road is a thing that happens, and AFC West matches are often competitive. Raiders have also beaten the Chiefs once this year and the Saints, they're just woefully inconsistent is all.

never know which carr youre going to get

ive been loving this season idk why

it's crazy that there's a game on now. so weird

ugly ass game too. looks like rg just pulled a hammy maybe

this is like the Andy Capp Cheddar Fries Bowl

love too play in the red zone

Ok so in that situation how long can the Steelers remain in the pile so the clock runs? If they’d taken a few seconds more to get up they wouldn’t have been able to run a play (which should’ve been an easy touchdown, they got the exact look they wanted)

how are the Steelers only beating the Ravens JV squad by only 5

and they have zero offensive touchdowns?

Their offense is cruising until they reach the 5 yard line

who the fuck is playing quarterback for the Ravens right now

Trayce McSorley?

have to all the way back to the scab season to find such wacky nfl starters as this year

I know this is not a novel observation but schefter is such a fucking shill

Can't fire the McCaskey family and that is and will continue to be why the Bears are so f'n weirdly run as a team. That history, they SHOULD be the Packers or the Steelers but they are not as sadly Papa's family just does not have the touch running the club.

at least they're not the lions

that's pretty wild!

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/30454991/at-least-four-strains-covid-19-found-baltimore-ravens-facility

last time my Fins were 8-4 was 2003, and I worked at Best Buy.

a win today and they're 8-4.

would be hilarious if the Jets beat the Raiders today.

Browns-Titans is really the only interesting matchup despite Rams-Cards and Bills-49ers really.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qhjprz1TNjI

Xavien Howard with his 8th pick

Damn this browns game is getting out of control.

stunned at how badly you're punking them

complete joke officiating in the Miami-Browns game. shoving match out of bounds between a Bengal and a Dolphin. both Boyd and Howard ejected. Neither should have been ejected. they weren't punches, they were shoves.

it helped us temporarily but no Howard is gonna hurt. lucky for us, no Boyd for them.

Tua, sick drive

Hill actually playing kinda like a QB today for the SAints

Jet lead was a mirage I see.

Jax winning? lol

Thomas on the Bengals apparently doesn't know the kick-catch interference rule, as he's hit Jakeem Grant twice before the ball came in. the latter just provoked both benches emptying and sparked a fight. MLB style.

they still haven't resumed play

assuming mass ejections, possible suspensions after. this fucking sucks.

Davante Parker ejected for throwing punches (these were legit punches, no arguing that).

Mack Hollins (WR) as well, so that puts Miami down two WRs

another Bengal ejected (#36)

5 ejections in this game, one brawl. this is ugly and both teams will get fined.

Never count out Touchdown Trubisky

or the Jets

love it when Detroit hangs a Lions style loss on another team

xpost nope, nevermind

Allen of the Bengals hurt.

He is their QB

He was a practice squadder.

they're bringing Finley on now.

man it really sucks the luck they've had this year

lol the Jets were playing single coverage on the guy who caught a 50 yard TD with 11 second left in the game. Like, no help within 20 yards of the receiver. Nobody playing "centerfield" near the end zone just in case the Raiders are trying to win the game.

Just checked the replay. The Jets had 8 guys near the line of scrimmage when the ball was thrown. There were 11 seconds left and the Raiders needed a TD to win. Fascinating.

The Eagles are very....not good

Xpost lol maybe they realized they really wanted the #1 pick

"ABORT! ABORT!"

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but watch this and tell me the #Jets weren’t trying to lose this game.

Cover 0, with 13 seconds left & you spy Derek Carr like he’s Mike Vick in his prime?? pic.twitter.com/FR53RF1sxU

— Emmanuel Acho (@EmmanuelAcho) December 6, 2020

Why would they get that close to winning and tank tho?

bizarre but the cherry on top was using one of the DB's to spy on Carr

cos those 46 yard scampers for TDs are what he's known for!

so you're 9-3. we're 8-4.

where are the four horsemen

I love a good “they lost on purpose” conspiracy theory as much as anyone but have you seen the Jets play calling this year

......making it the perfect cover

hiring Gase = the reason for the loss

lol at the ease of that Packers TD. missed delay call but w/e

basically if Philly's front 4 don't get to you, you can pretty much find anything over the middle of the field

it feels like Packers receivers are drifting across the middle and Philly's zone coverage is shitty enough to where nobody picks up the guy and he sits out there wide open

Wentz is also playing like a rookie

weird, i was told that wentz would be much better now that he's taken accountability

He ranks first in interceptions (15) and sacks (46)

guess how many he's had in the first half. Hint: it's not zero.

Lotta Scorigami potential in the NYG/SEA game

um this Eagles-Packers game just....got very interesting.

Kyler looks like absolute dogshit.

That 4th and 19 hurt but damn I didn’t think it would actually matter

good sack there

lol @ Giants winning

LOL..bye Eagles

I counted 5 missed tackles

Holy shit Aaron Jones

they are the Sgt Bilko of football this year

(Philadelphia)

mark schlereth is an absolutely brutal commentator

lol that (jets DC) gregg williams was not made available to the media after the game, while the rookie CB who got burnt was

where is the #accountability

Hilarious that Williams used to stick Jabril Peppers 40 yards deep every play when he was DC in Cleveland. WHERE’S YOUR PEPPERS NOW WILLIAMS.

LOL..bye Eagles

I counted 5 missed tackles

― Lover of Nixon (or LON for short) (Neanderthal), Sunday, December 6, 2020 7:12 PM (thirty-nine minutes ago)

I mean once he broke free initially this was the best outcome tbh

I'm all in on hurts. no reason to go back to wentz, except maybe for sneaks on 3rd and 4th and short because he's still a god at that

Yeah I’m not sure who you want in 2021 but clearly you gotta go with Hurts right now

yeah, the dynamic of the game changed a bit when he came in

if Hurts is indeed a starting-level talent you'll probably find out in the next 3 games. or you can start Wentz and lose all 3

you can start Wentz and lose all 3

and it's astonishing how many head coaches would view this as "the safe option"

Losing is the new winning

speaking of I'm convinced something fishy is going on with the way the Jets defended that final play, apparently no team in NFL history has called a defense anywhere close to that in a similar situation

why would you go through the trouble of being competitive and taking the lead with 11 seconds left only to go "lol jk", though? Like, if you wanna tank without plausible deniability....you pretty much can in the NFL.

unless it was "oh shit, Jacksonville blew their game"

I’m not saying it was the plan all along, I’m saying they tried to win in much the same way I “try” to beat my 6 year old in Mario Party

they pretty much had won the game though! I feel like if ownership had sent it down to 'give up', Gregg could have dialed up much shittier defensive class on downs 1-3.

idgaf if they were tanking tbh, the amount of people calling for investigations is pretty hilarious - cos are they gonna go back in time and penalize every other team that did it (including my own, last year)?. i just think coaches coulda guaranteed a loss much earlier than 0:11 remaining.

there's probably someone in the jets front office who's relieved, but gase and williams will be gone whether they get lawrence or not, and none of the players have anything at all to gain from going 0-16

and it *is* vmic for williams

lol

The #Jets have fired defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, per sources.

— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) December 7, 2020

there should be a fundraising telethon for NFL teams victimized by Adam Gase's coaching

i guess it's good that they recognize it, but i've never seen a steelers team so incapable of running the ball

did they re-sign Zerouoe or something

i mean connor is out and their starting center is out but dag

xp that is a sweet deep cut

next you'll be talking about walter abercrombie

hoo boy, can the hatcats win this

i'm not sure how many 11-0 teams there have been, but this is an awfully bad one -- all they can do on offense is six-yard outs

might this set up a showdown with the cleve brownies???

have a feeling both teams will be resting starters on the last game of the season

yeah, I've not been a believer in this Steelers team being undefeated level good. this was overdue

NFC BEAST

really am disappointed that the hatcats and NYFG won this week -- wanted to see how low the BEAST could go

have a feeling both teams will be resting starters on the last game of the season

i don't disagree, but when did the browns last do this (for positive reasons)?

Never. Even when they were good in the 80s they needed to win the last game for various reason.

Though if the browns win their next three and pit loses one between now and week 17....

LOL @ Gase:

https://sports.yahoo.com/jets-coach-adam-gase-says-he-made-call-to-fire-gregg-williams-we-cant-have-that-happen-222319377.html

xp steelers could easily lose to the bills and/or colts

if the brownies can beat the ravens next monday, it might be on

division title on the line in clevo january 3 would be cherce

some Steeler fans I know whining it was the short schedule that caused them to lose lol

if you can't beat Washington on one day's rest, hang it up, son!

i'm sure it didn't help, but cmon

hatcats

mmhmm

Bryant had taken the field for pregame warm-ups despite the fact that, per league protocols, his two inconclusive tests should have been treated as if they were positive, and he should have been "subject to the other requirements and procedures of a positive test."

A source told ESPN that Bryant was already on the field by the time the league found out the results of his tests were inconclusive.

The NFL and NFLPA are not worried about close contacts with Bryant, sources told ESPN, because the Ravens have been operating under exceedingly strict protocols for the past two weeks, effectively eliminating the possibility of close contacts.

Bryant was not wearing a face covering at all times.

watching the game tonight you'd swear the Cowboys were the leper colony

lol what a joke league

Cam Newton getting a lot of carries tonight for some reason.

fuck the Patriots

so I guess the whole "Belichick can succeed with any quarterback" thing isn't true

most losses in one season since 2002

Hatcat's defense is legit and with Smith playing well, they are no longer a joke (at least on the field). That defensive line with Montez Sweat and Chase Young has potential to be excellent.

Picked Mahomes!!!!

Helluva time for our automatic kicker to miss but hard for me to hate a guy who's 28-30 on the year

TOUCHDOWN

Mahomes taking a 30 yard sack. Didn't have that one on my bingo card

ANOTHER PICK

My heart is racing

Ugh Tyreek Hill is just..good

Ugh Tyreek Hill is just..good

― Lover of Nixon (or LON for short) (Neanderthal), Sunday, December 13, 2020 1:56 PM bookmarkflaglink

Welp

This is why they're 11-1

That AJ Brown TD catch was pretty nuts

Damn, picked Mahomes three times and still got a loss.

Yea, helluva comeback, but the Chiefs are the best for a reason

9ers/hatcats combined for 17 punts today

Bills imo

lol <3

omg, Bills fan

Very happy for your Cleveland Browns this season, brownie! I hope they crush the Ravens.

Thank you horseshoe for beating the Steelers!

somebody has to

Sigh. The Ravens could not pass the goddamn ball and we still lost.

he passed the ball a lot better after he took a dump

holy hell on the FIELD?

https://i.imgur.com/def4Osr.jpg

OTM!

Guys the last time the Bills clinched the AFC East title I was 15!

Congrats!

Ugh missing both our top receivers and TE

Wonder if any Falcons fans think they’re actually gonna win this game

Fins have had a TD taken off, as well as a 4th down fake

Not bad calls...but come on.

9-5 babyyyyyy

vikings are useless this year

browns and bills are great stories, good for the league for the franchises to be good

I'm a Browns fan if my Fins don't get in

JETS

Lol

oh the jets

Jacksonville winning next week would just add to the hilarity - "no, you take the #1 pick!".

my Jet fan friend is pissed that they won lol

chances of a sub-.500 team winning the East just skyrocketed with the http://i.imgur.com/QbYzHTH.jpg loss.

lol at the Falcons choking AGAIN

omg I'm sorry I meant Washington Football Team

the falcons (4-10) have a better point differential than the browns (10-4)

RIP Kevin Greene, one of the greatest defensive players of his era

https://www.nfl.com/news/pass-rushing-great-hall-of-famer-kevin-greene-dead-at-58

oh wow

meh he was a stupid Trumper

Probably describes 60% of the current league

great league you got there

I mean they cancelled a Black QB and ended his career for kneeling during anthems.

yeah he was not humble enough for Kevin's liking

Did anybody see Kap’s interview after his workout? Is it just me, but did it sound like he was barking and calling out the NFL Owners as well as Roger Goodell? Wow. Kinda thought he would be a bit humble and contrite. Guess I thought wrong on that one. #whybitethehandthatcanfeedU

— Kevin Greene (@sackmaster91) November 17, 2019

Doesn't seem that bad on the Schilling scale

lol true

Yikes, Bengals looking... good?

they look pretty solid yes but man the Steelers offense is pretty terrible once you figure them out

Lol at 0.5 yards/attempt

always knew the moment the wheels fell off Big Ben it was going to be ugly

honestly not sure whether it's ben's fault or an offense that cannot run and is predicated on four-yard passes

like, are they building the offense around ben's inability to throw down the field or the receivers' inability to get open/catch the ball down the field?

yes you can fp me for saying 'down the field'

can he take the top off a defense though

just as long as he doesn't put the ball on the ground

that qb draw/fake counter action play call where finley got the 20+ yard TD was a thing of beauty

only 474 combined yards. lol @ Steelers, from undefeated, to three game losing streak

i'm willing to accept a lol here but not from a dolphins fan

(says the guy who has seen like two steelers games this year, and not this one)

Matt Nagy is on a Wayne Fontesesque grail quest to go 9-7, as you can't fire me if I make the playoffs run. Mitch Trib is along for the ride too for same reasons.

I hope the Jets win again and Darnell gets to twist the knife.

Worst PI call I've seen in a long time

Kurt Warner is also a terrible broadcaster. Regularly seems to be not paying attention

Wow this Dolphins-Raiders game!

holy fuuuck

AHahahahahaahahahahaha

Omg

I had a heart attack

NICE

Score Update:
MIA 26 - 25 LV
00:01 4Q

This game has a 99.83% chance of ending in Scorigami.
Most likely Scorigami: 26-25 (99.77%)

— Scorigami (@NFL_Scorigami) December 27, 2020

I don't understand how the Raiders imploded.

I told my mother, jokingly, that our best hope was a tossup that resulted in PI. But so much had to go wrong on that play. Like....

Obviously you don't wanna give up a big play with Sanders's golden leg, but they needed 40 yards just to reach the peak of his range. And if you rush 3 and drop 8, Miami's receivers are so mediocre without Devante Parker, it's unlikely, and if it happens, it's likely gonna be in the middle of the field with 12 seconds or less. Spike happens with 5 seconds and it's a low percentage chance.

Somehow managed to simultaneously blow coverage and leave a WR open ON THE SIDELINE and facemask the QB.

interested smileys

Not trying to be a sore winner. Just it's been a shit year and my boys have been such a joy to watch this year. A respite from the despair.

This is some vintage Browns

man the chiefs got by with a shit performance

nfc east continues to excite

nice and wholly unexpected comeback by the stillers

oh man, Clevo. Hope brownie’s doing okay...

Could no one from the NFC East be allowed to make the playoffs, on principle?

Why does Matt Ryan take so many sacks? He never throws it away, even when the sack is imminent.

the brownies had zero WRs today or something iirc

(marty schottenheimer would have made a quadruple-TE scheme work tho)

Browns got absolutely fucked by the league. This game should have been postponed until Tuesday and next week’s Steelers game to Monday night. That said, the playcalling in the first half was abominable, our defense sucks, and Baker fumbled three times.

rip eagles

on the bright side, you were almost certainly the only 4-9-1 team to head into the season's penultimate weekend with a shot at the playoffs

lmao this is what a shut in I've become, I'm watching this game and suddenly realized "wait this is in Green Bay" and looked outside to see 5 inches of snow

oh my god what a lousy break for Tennessee

Reffing in this Titans game is some bullshit.

NYFG are 5-10 and still in the hunt!

reffing was pretty one-sided and bad but they lost by 26

Here's what is at stake for the Giants in Week 17: with a loss and wins from other teams, they could pick as high as 3rd overall in the 2021 NFL draft.

With a win and a Washington loss, the Giants would win the NFC East.

Incredible.

— Field Yates (@FieldYates) December 28, 2020

is it not weird no one is talking about the fumble call that ended the eagles season? seems obviously wrong to me and pretty high stakes

it's really pathetic the teams that are going to be left out of the playoffs in favor of whoever wins the nfc east

eh, it’s not like going 9-7 should really earn a playoff spot for the bears/cardinals/rams either. if bad teams are going to make the playoffs, might as well send the hilariously bad

dwayne haskins... yer fired

amazing

a first-place team releasing their starting QB during the final week of the regular season, gotta love the NFC Beast

(good)

eh, it’s not like going 9-7 should really earn a playoff spot for the bears/cardinals/rams either. if bad teams are going to make the playoffs, might as well send the hilariously bad

― mookieproof, Monday, December 28, 2020 9:56 AM (four hours ago) bookmarkflaglink

colts, ravens, fins, browns all fielded legitimately good teams, one of them is gonna be dropped in favor of the cowboys

Browns missing the playoffs almost seems like destiny right now

blame the afl-nfl merger xp

hell yeah beat the shit out of the pats buffalo

Did y’all see Belichick throwing the phone on the sideline in a rage earlier? I could drink a case of that and not be full.

BILLS

you know I really am surprised that the Cam Patriots weren't better than the Brady Bucs

Steelers expected to rest starters
Bills expected to play them a little, then rest them. Odds have shifted towards Dolphins all morning.

Benefits the Browns and Dolphins.

And Ravens and Colts have easy matchups.

Possible that all four contenders can win, making all four 11-5, with the Colts the odd one out.

My wish is for Cleveland and Miami to win, Indy to win, and Baltimore to lose.

giants cowboys is truly abysmal football

what on earth are they looking at for so long with this obvious touchdown

Sources: Carson Wentz-Doug Pederson relationship fractured beyond repair; Philadelphia Eagles QB plans to ask for trade

neat trick that this is framed as a broken relationship rather than wentz being 34th out of 36 in the league in passer rating

Fins are cooked. This was painful but we didn't expect 10 wins this year.

Still in it. C'mon Pitt

brownies are fortunate

Yup. Still, congrats brownie!!

Congrats Cleveland Browns and brownie!

Also, Bills imo!

Bills are gonna be formidable in these playoffs

I have resigned myself to Tom Brady playing lights out at age 60 btw

Sorry about your Dolphins, Neanderthal! They definitely look to be a force in the division in the next few years.

Ravens look really scary tbh

Browns! Bad win but I’d like to see a full roster some day.

Thanks horseshoe. I'm happy with our season for sure!

How is that illegal procedure on the kicker?

Go jax!

Lol otm

Really do not understand what happened on the Packers Bears kickoff

bears win puts four of five great lakes teams in the playoffs

too bad about the mud hens

THE BROWNS ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS.

Congrats Browns fans.

We're out, but I'm very happy with this season. We have such a colossally horrible fanbase that people are already screaming to move on from Tua. Thankfully this coaching staff doesn't kowtow to loud fans

Who is playing QB for the Eagles right now? Sudafed? Seinfeld?

I know this game means zero for the Eagles but this is seriously bizarre

gotta pour one out for all the folks on Twitter who got the Giants to win the NFC East at like +1000 and now have to watch this

Doug Pederson about to line up only six players on defense for fourth down

— James Holzhauer (@James_Holzhauer) January 4, 2021

lmao that was even worse!!!!

just as well there were no fans there, because yikes

enjoying all the hand-wringing about whether or not doug pederson Respects the Game

pederson is back in my good graces after sunday, perfect way to shit on the giants and this dumb league

It’s the 29th anniversary of the Detroit Lions last playoff win.

They beat the Cowboys 38-6 at the Pontiac Silverdome on January 5th, 1992 to earn a trip to NFC Championship Game.

It remains their ONLY playoff win since 1957. Incredible. pic.twitter.com/kxcnFJY9Hj

I remember that game, I was 11.

football coaches are fucking insane

Sean Payton said he suggested the idea of quarantining 50,000 Saints fans to create a scientifically-safe home-field advantage in the Superdome. ... Doesn't sound like he'll get his wish, but those wheels are always turning.

— Mike Triplett (@MikeTriplett) January 6, 2021

lmao

those wheels

I can guarantee you at least one coach has thought about planning an unfortunately timed Covid outbreak on an opposing team

"here coach Lafleur, you can borrow our footballs for warm-up"

starts with a belli and ends with a check

lol he'd totally get caught trying to pull that move on the 0-10 Jets

The Bills are trying to kill me...that was an ugly one!

winning ugly is winning!

I will take it but hope they figure out a few things before next week!

lol rivers tho

lol I know

Bills imo

:D

Folks are we sure Pete Carroll isn’t one of the worst coaches in the league

he isn’t, but schotty is probably the league’s worst oc

got taylor heinecke on my tv that’s how you know it’s super wild card weekend baby

Taylor Heinicke kind of balling out

I jinxed him and now he’s hurt.

unhurt and balling out again

HENICKIE

gotta be the best "1st start in the playoffs" game right? unless i'm missing something obvious

god if this kid knocks Brady out of the playoffs it would be the funniest shit to happen in the NFL in a long time

that throw to sims was an absolute dime, someone is gonna give him way too much money in the offseason

honestly disturbing to be rooting for the hatcats

Yes but this is what Tom Brady refusing to retire hath wrought.

A valiant effort!

Heinecke actually did look pretty good when he was on the Vikings but then he fucked up his foot and ankle in what, reading between the lines, was some dumb drunk misadventure so they cut him because you can't have a hurt back up and the whole thing was such a dumbass move

but I remember liking him

https://www.businessinsider.com/vikings-qb-taylor-heinicke-injured-kicking-in-friends-window-2016-7

Depending on if Alex Smith can really take another season (hint you probably should seriously think about retiring), I'd say Heinecke definitely earned him a shot at least a season of paychecks as the WTF Hatcats as their backup QB.

Washington should just stay totally Seinfeld and should officially change the name to Washington Team Football. It's anti-logo and kinda genius in a way.

I don't have a lot of fandom in this playoffs as the Bears got in the back door and probably don't deserve to be there. I could believe it possible they could upset the Saints if for nothing else for the almighty to punish Bears fans once again watching Aaron Rodgers toy with their emotions.

That said, if I had to pick a team I would be OK with them winning it all, I would go Titans. Why? Derrick Henry is a mf'ing beast and bad a$$ running back is way cooler than elite QB.

xpost, the WFT uniforms with the old school collegiate style helmets are some of the best in the league

Lol “Washington Football Team” is totally Seinfeld-y, true.

I’ve actually come around to the POV that the Nagy/Mitch Bears are pretty good, if consistently unlucky

Tucker =

Don't want no short kick man

Titan D got worked

Lamar looked good

Yep. Pretty top sheld performance

Shelf

If the Saints win we finally get the Brady/Rodgers playoff game

Uhhh what the fuck Chicago

This was boring af

Actually seemed like kind of a winnable game for the Bears

Til that awful endzone drop

That was maybe the most hilarious first play in a playoff game ever

Lolthlisberger

(Sorry, mookie)

Wow.

BROWNIE!!!!

Lol again

I'm a big Browns fan tonight

Roethlisberger putting the SB back in Pittsburgh

YEAH JARVIS LANDRY

(I cannot abide Cris Collinsworth)

LETS GO CLEVO

Wow.

Holy fuq

I AM ENJOYING THIS VERY MUCH

CHUBB IMO

CLEVOOOOOOOOOO

Holy mackeral!

brownie it is my sincere hope that you get drunk on pure elation tonight

Lol actually drinking mead for the first time 2nite!

Victory mead!

Cheers!

Wow. What a start

Huh.

Lololololthlisberger

this is the exact opposite of how I thought this was going to go

Amazing

Welp.

Holy lolz

what on earth

Steelers only two good plays were wiped out by penalty, lol

might be the worst first quarter in playoff history

HOLEEEEEE SHIT

Dear god.

Steelers currently loading up a dump truck of cash to dump on Taylor Heinecke's lawn

Certainly loading up a dump alright

CLEVO

Final score: 70-7?

didnt pay to much attention to the nfl this year but just curious what caused the steelers to win every game and then suddenly lose every game

ben’s arm fell off

damn

they played a weak schedule and aren't very good (also lost some key LBs, but still)

yeah looking at their scores now and noting that they won a lot of close ones, still going from 11-0 to here is wild

Browns seem determined to let them claw back

oh wow they should've picked Ben a 4th time there

Ugh. C'mon Browns!

Here we go.

yikes

this feels like a Vikings game

ummm Tomlin clearly should've gone for that right

CHUUUUUBBBBBBB IMO

Believe in these Browns, brownie!!!

Otm

Chubb!

YESSS!!!!

o shit

punt karma

great playcall, better run. chubb is an ideal modern running back

Browns are back in this.

lol Browns fans. I feel you. It’s a hard life.

poor tackling by pitt you gotta tackle i always say

Cris Collinsworth’s face just AGGRAVATES me

Pittsburgh's win probability is probably like 90% if they went for it there

every time I see him now all I hear is his exasperation at that ridiculous failed trick play the Colts tried against the Pats during the Pagano era, with him yelling "what are ya doin? there's two guys there!"

xpost

what the hell man

not good. still a lot of time left.

Browns need to eat some clock with ground game and chain movin'.

big stop on the 2 point

Lol wtf is this d

this is turning into an old fashioned shoot out

I was somewhat worried in the first quarter cos when you're the underdog and get off to a ridiculously huge lead in a very short duration can often be a psychological strain; the anxiety of defending a lead for a lengthy period of time sometimes get teams out of what they do well, or to overreact to a few negative plays.

glad to see Mayfield added two TDs after they went up 28-0.

clutch throw

side note, I miss the fuck out of Landry on my Fins

time to say goodnight Pitt

c'mon, finish em

yeah and Browns vs Steelers exactly the perfect matchup for this - Steelers a veteran team who ALWAYS beat the Browns

Fucking catch that, dude!

welp...doesn't completely nail the coffin shut, but that was a huge time-gobbling drive, lookin' good Browns

feeling ok with the field goal, but yes that was right there he needs to catch that

I will take it.
