definitely my dream football career

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/10/08/tony-gonzalez-doesnt-want-to-be-traded/

Gonzalez is saying the right things, but you know he goes home at night and says to himself "I came back for THIS SHIT?"

They aren't gonna trade him. A 4 or 5 isn't worth it. He's the only thing they got right now.

frontline doc was amazing

watching it now

Matt Schaub shut down his twitter last week

I read that he actually shut it down in January after it was reported that he shut it down last week.

ugh apparently some angry fans showed up at his house

Schaub has been a really good starting qb for five(?) seasons in Houston, and after a less than stellar end of last season and beginning of this one they turn on him? These people remember David Carr, right?

David Carr 	2002–2006 	75 	22 	53 	0 	.293

Matt Schaub 	2007–present 	66 	34 	32 	0 	.515

the Houston football psyche is very unstable. They're still not over that Bills-Oilers game.

I think you're kinda sugarcoating the disastrous nature of Schaub's last 6 or 7 games though.

dude has the yips

Best player in NFL history, anybody would be lucky to have him. I would take a 60 year old favre over a 25 year old Rg3 any day. Hopefully he can come back and get that 2nd superbowl ring that was stolen from him time after time again

dude has the yips

They call it the "Delhommes" in the NFL

haha

brady: "If we score six points this weekend, we probably won’t win." yeah probably. i think New England has to score over 24 to beat the saints. i don't see it. i'm gonna miss the game sunday but if i have to miss one, i'm not too sad about it being this.

i have a weird feeling the bears will lose at home to the giants tomorrow and all of a sudden they will be 3-3 after starting 3-0, and in some kind of crisis.

lions vs cleveland will be interesting for sure, i can't really see detroit not winning but what if they don't...

the money half of the afc west will continue roll. chargers might force a shoot out against the colts, that would be fun mnf. DC vs cowboys is a surprising primetime game. hey that might even be interesting, i wonder if dallas's defense will be back from their bye week.

some turd on the slate too. after early season overexposure for both, eagles at bucs will be the 1pm game redzone forgets about.

i think it's going to be too warm on Sunday to wear my Browns scarf, thanks Obama :/

Texans are stuck in that same spot when Delhomme just fell apart a few years ago, they really don't have any other options that really is an improvement at this point. That said, I would not be surprised if Schaub turns around, his completion percentage is still pretty good, it's more about just keeping from throwing pick sixes.

Peyton Manning has had some runs like that where he was throwing quite a few TDs to the opposition, including a weird spell the year before he got hurt. You chuck it around 40+ times a game, it can happen.

The thing as a fan you don't really know is how many of those picks was because the receiver did something stupid and Schaub was throwing a timing pass to a spot. That happens quite a bit in the modern passing game with all the timing patterns etc.

ugh apparently some angry fans showed up at his house

Yeah fuck everything about this

what I've read from the writers who watch film is that he's staring things down and corners are all over it.

Haha! These predicted sports massacres never usually turn out to be as bad as you'd think, but I want Denver to hang 100 on them. PLEASE!

I wonder who the top 4 are. 2007 Patriots? 2000 Rams?

jags to be blown out, sent back in time or to europe or whatever

Last week 10-4, season 53-24

Giants at Bears- I'm going Bears but I don't feel solid on it.
Bengals at Bills- Bengals should win, but they sometimes play stupid enough to lose. They got to win these type games.
Lions at Browns- Wow, this is kind of a pickem. I got a feeling the Lions have more firepower, but picking Detroit to win on the road is just dicey. I'm going to go Cleveland and just hope their D can contain Detroit's passing game.
Packers at Ravens- I'll take the Packers, but they are starting to get banged up as B-more seems to be figuring it out.
Panthers at Vikings- Vikings
Rams at Texans- Houston to win, as I think they will move the ball well against the Rams.
Raiders at Chiefs- Chiefs but I hope the Raiders knock them off. Chiefs/Raiders in Arrowhead is usually an entertaining game.
Steelers at Jets- This game is a trap. Jets have had some success, but the Steelers are coming off a bye. Pittsburgh to win.
Eagles at Buccanners- Eagles are knicked up and going with a backup QB, but I got a feeling the Bucs are pretty damn close to going into operation shutdown mode on their head coach. Philly.
Jaguars at Broncos- Broncos. I got a feeling the Jags will play over their heads and it will be closer than you think. They always got up to play Indy when Peyty was there. Of course, J-ville also had one of the best defensive lines in football back then too and Indy could never stop the run.
Titans at Seahawks- Seahawks
Saints at Patriots- I'm picking Saints, but I got a feeling those tricky Pats will somehow win.
Cardinals at 49ers- Niners, but I wonder at what point does the passing inefficiency become a real problem.
Washington at Cowboys- Dallas should win. What the heck happened to D'sr defense last week? They got freakin' shredded. I think Washington was somewhat a scheduling fluke last year, they don't look that good to me on either side of the ball.
Colts at Chargers- Colts should win, but at least with the old QB Indy had problems every time they played the Chargers. Colts games against Seattle and SF were really, really impressive. Kind of a bummer they lost Bradshaw, as he was fitting in pretty good in what they were doing.

I got to say, the whole Thursday game is a bummer in some ways, as it just comes too quick every week for many people to do picks etc.

wow Eli

holy shit

maybe the giants will lose every game forever

so that's 14 on the season, holy cow Eli

http://espn.go.com/espn/photos/gallery/_/id/9697611/image/1/makeup

lol at reuben randle reading the defense better than eli

why is Michael Silver ever on TV

I hate the giants so damn much

I think intentional grounding judgement calls are the sketchiest part of NFL officiating

This is a poorly officiated game.

Forte was clearly in the vicinity on that grounding call

lol

while Peyton's putting up a season's worth of TDs in less than half a season, Eli's doing the same with INTs

couldn't have gonna much better really. give em a little hope an then snatch it away with yet another turnover.

as funny as that is you really can't put that one on Eli

unfortunately the record of 42 INTs in a season is probably out of reach

with perseverance, and the Lord, all is possible

https://twitter.com/mshamburger1/status/388504303263944704/photo/1

I'm pretty sure Michael Irvin is the stupidest man on the planet

well its clear that beason is the best linebacker the giants have had in ~15 yrs

my lord this adrian peterson thing

right?

awful. fear the awkward storyline sunday that hes running with a heavy heart.

oh no i just saw that he didn't make it. jesus christ....

btw adrian's life...man

http://www.startribune.com/sports/vikings/blogs/227383981.html

Peterson has dealt with tragedy at different times in his life. At age 8, he witnessed his older brother being struck and killed by a drunk driver while riding his bike.
As a teenager, Peterson’s father was sentenced to 10 years in prison for laundering drug money. Peterson’s stepbrother was shot and killed in Houston the night before Peterson worked out at the NFL Combine coming out of college.

Jesus, between this and the three Buccaneers with MRSA infections, this is a bleak day in the NFL :(. so they're saying he died as the result of abuse by the child's caretaker?

horrific...takes a particularly vile piece of shit to do this

Reports are blaming the mother's boyfriend.

This is awful.

fucking hell

yeah, nothing to be said. just terrible

guys I'm so sad about AP

Some Oklahoma douchebag's gonna correct you and say its "AD" for "all day". Apparently his college nickname. And yes, this is a major point of commentary on some message boards about this horrendous tragedy. That they are getting his nickname wrong. Some people are so fucking stupid.

@AdamSchefter 3h
NFL is expected to fine Bears WR Brandon Marshall $5,250 for wearing green shoes Thursday night in honor of Mental Health Awareness week.

oh god

only league approved pink penalty flags plz

thad! already more points against cincy than brady

big 4th down score carolina. newton composed, took his time to find the right throw.

oakland really good set of downs on defense to force a punt for kcc. weird to see these flashes of competence.

tashard choice is owning the bengals

God I want the Bucs to lose so bad so that Schiano can be ousted midseason.

bills switch choice out for jackson inside the 5, turnover on downs. someone needs to be fired for that

giiiiiiiio

gio bernard is so cool

Terrelle Pryor y'all

that was nice

wooooord

moore finally back to catching the ball again, love it

texans having a functional defense was obviously a one year blip

is cushing hurt again, they seem to only be good when he's active

wow andy dalton. talk about not seeing a guy.

cleveland browns, elite red zone offense

chiefs should just field 10 o-linemen and snap the ball directly to jamaal charles

rodgers seems to be mobbed by purple shirts every time this game comes on

Raiders got totally screwed by the refs on that sack of Pryor that came after the whistle

spectacular 64 yd punt by Marquette King

xpost otm

cam newton is playing well. doesn't seem to have any awareness in the pocket but to his credit he doesn't stop looking down the field. they really need to give him a premium pass blocking offensive line.

loooooooooooool houston

fuckin houston omg

the texans have to do something drastic this week, right?

i think kubiak is the problem but he doesn't seem to be getting much heat yet. that might be about to change today tho. will he schiano schaub to keep the pressure off himself?

maybe the Texans will hire Sumlin after drafting Manziel

schaub just made this a lot easier by hurting himself

woodson i love you mayne

omg houston

but i was so sure tj yates would turn it around. ugh, i was too hasty buying this shirt. time for the lighter fluid again.

wow at that end zone cleveland interception off the tip

cant believe nantz/simms are doing jets/steelers

Vince Young ‏@VinceYoung 4m

Let them know VY is in shape and ready to go! I always loved my birth place and everyone who lives in it IM READY

ugh this raider game is getting grim

stupid kansas & their dumb well of a stadium

I think the raiders have 3 2nd stringers and 2 3rd stringers on the line right now

yeah it's ugly

big foles > jackson td

pryor is not helping his protection tbf. needs to know when to move up instead of running backwards into tamba hali.

yeah the backwards thing is killing me

Alex Smith sucks

Thad!

welp that was just bad by pryor

u_u

actually that's probably 60% Moore's fault oh well

*cries*

jacksonville jaguars ppl

Pryor's hand is hurt, his velocity hasn't been the same since they worked on it

a confluence of ugh in this half

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/9820198/matt-schaub-houston-texans-leaves-game-ankle-injury-prompting-cheers-fans

is Thad gonna do it

xp cunts. they were well rewarded at least.

If Schaub is out next week I think Case Keenum will start

Does Aaron Dobson know how to catch a ball?

never understand why buffalo doesn't use cj spiller 2x as much as they do

brady tearing it up on the ground as usual

talib on graham, interesting

hoo boy wtf was that

Peyton at 22 TDs on the year. Good god. only people watching this stinkfest must be Broncos fans and/or gamblers

also, do you think Schiano leaked Freeman report, y/n? I say "y"

patriots apparently forgot sproles was on the saints during their prep this week

saints going for the strip aggressively every play

I get nervous every time Brady targets Dobson

So glad Ridley's back

he is just a cut above the other dudes when he is on

Might just be good enough. I'll take any extra offensive threat at this point.

hooman

big balls play

saints are being super overaggressive, deservedly getting screened to death

stevan fuckin ridley tho

a ridley runs through it

lol

rob ryan is kind of a shitty coordinator imo

hahah wtf was that play in seattle

xp rs and i were talking abt that last night--he can come in and make a bad defense credible but an offensive coaching staff with a small amount of intellect can tear his shit up.

i think aqib's coaching instructions for the week were "kick jimmy graham's ass"

it's funny though the entire narrative of this graham-talib thing would be a lot different if brees had thrown the ball to graham when he was open in the end zone by 4 yards on their scoring drive

oh sure. i'm not saying the job is done but clearly the goal was to hit him, and keep hitting him.

manning out. schaub in

lolllll denver

the stupidest thing about rob ryan's gameplan in this game is that from my vantage point it seems like the saints' front four this year is the best it has been in years

brees what are you doing pal

brees just had another guy open on the second level but dumped off

he's playing so weirdly horrible

Belichik getting in his head

woooooooo that's a terrible call

ooh bad call refs

the pats should have to forfeit the game for falling for that imo

that's a home field call

no two people have ever had less chemistry than troy aikman and papa john

maybe colin kapernick and joe flacco

high % completion, 3 passing TDs...total 117 yards. that's so sam bradford.

wasn't that game largely decided by turnovers?

QBs against Tampa Bay so far this year and their Passer rating: Geno Smith (road game) 80.6, Drew Brees (home game) 67.5, Tom Brady (road game) 92.9, Carson Palmer (home game) 62.2, Nick Foles (home game coming off of a bye) 133.3

need a gif of the pats lineman who got turned in circles by the fake on that play

wow brees is off

7 points is way too close for my taste

amendola should've been a foot taller on that play

every play in the seattle/tenn game seems to be crazy

Oh great, Talib is injured

goodnight danny. saints have been looking for the big hit on him and edelman.

It was nice to have Amendola back for 1 1/4 games

Amendola just got knocked the fuck to sleep

jesus, amendola

How many patriots will survive this game?

lot of 'performance bonuses' for saints players today

Bush will get fined for the hit on amendola which will be an injustice cuz his head was a foot off the ground at impact. Clean hit.

i would be surprised, it was obviously clean

Agree completely

how can NO keep getting a 5th rusher so free? it's not like they are sending the house every time

Jags helmet fade looks like a homemade mod a high school would come up with to be rad.

how can 12 men penalty offset against an active play penalty??

lame

Handoff to Bouldin is a pretty weak call in that situation

totally

What happened to Fitzgerald on that play. Bizarre fumble.

Now Mayo, what a bloodbath

hope tom was watching that throw

Badly timed jump by the Patsies CB

God red zone is awesome

it really really is

now that the falcons are done that's probably how i'll watch the rest of the season, i'll just watch 'football' instead of actual games

you are shitting me

Receiver had a step. Awful throw.

now that the falcons are done that's probably how i'll watch the rest of the season, i'll just watch 'football' instead of actual games

I was rooting for the pats for a whole cuz it was good for falx but then I remembered they are toast so I'm just watching for quality ball. No dog in the fight.

For a while

This ending is giving me heart palpitations

Hoolleee shhhiiiytt

Un. Fucking. Real.

Terrible clock management by the Saints after they went ahead.

gif of Rob Ryan face soon, plz

how do you not just take a knee there and give brees a shot?

you guys

I love football

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BWfpIeWCUAAetxZ.jpg

Oh my god I just assumed the game was finished I'm so mad at myself

So were half the fans at Foxboro apparently!

ok let's go Washington Department of Football

http://d3j5vwomefv46c.cloudfront.net/photos/large/815021264.gif?1381707575

RGIII with the pink sleeve! awesome

xp YES!

nice call one play early on that romo INT collinsworth!

just getting back home--did graham leave the game or did the pats actually shut him out?

both iirc

like he was shut out until around late q3/early q4 then left?

sick

woww just finished the pats game and that was some srs shit, nice of the saints to be so considerate of bradys reputation

lol at rob ryans bereavement

btw I watched on dvr and I can't believe I've never done this before but I fast forwarded between plays and I don't think I want to watch football any other way

now im just gonna ff right through the sox game lol

yeah i think they advertise the nfl game rewind svc as letting you watch a full game in 30 mins

took me like an hour and a half but I watched some replays penalty calls etc when I felt like it

ohno here goes costas

ugh

lol he said "political correctness run amok"

political correctness is unstoppable, rampaging

just give up now

at least he gets to the point that r**skins is a slur finally

snyder HAS to know he's got to change the name soon, right? after obama even said something and now it's on the sunday night football where costas tries really hard to fill out his commentary with references to other team names and excuses for anyone who supports it and still winds up saying outright that it's a slur and an insult

i went to dinner after the brady pick. no way the saints were going to lose the game from there.

xpost
idk, maybe political correctness should keep doing its thing versus racism? i'm ok with that

wow griffin totally baited that dude into hitting him

Loved the hit by the cowboy on the block on the kickoff return. He crushed that guy

the music just there before the commercial, was that "don't go back to rockville"?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockville,_Maryland

https://twitter.com/dcsportsbog/status/389577577464995840

lol

seems like costa was pretty otm from the excerpts i'm seeing

lol

@robertcostaNRO: Ah. It's that time of the week again. The time when I start getting furious emails about comments I didn't make at a football game.

lmao costas* obv

idk, costas was pretty soft, he was like "yeah because of chief wahoo the cleveland indians have occasionally run into trouble" like what does that even mean.

tony romo, making plays with his feet

holding out for a terrible late q4 INT here

it has to happen, right?

alright fuck baseball I'm back to football this interception better happen

collinsworth loves that cowboy terrordome

did he say there was art in it? what kind of art???

made me wonder

this is setting up to be a clean home division win for the cowboys. rare as a snow leopard.

the two defensive coordinators in this game are jim haslett and monte kiffin

it's october of 2013

feel like this basically says it all about the nfc east

That's actually one of the best posts I've ever seen Agreed. Dont forget tom coughlins cold weather face which should make an appearance shortly. Though whoever taught the kick returner his stuff deserves kudos.

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2013/10/tom-brady-touchdown-radio-call/

UNICORNS! SHOW PONIES! WHERE'S THE BEEF!

lmao

"did he say there was art in it? what kind of art???"

Jerry Jones wife put an art gallery in there. It's probably between the wings place and the tattoo parlor.

it sounds pretty rad, do they have a mega church with a starbucks inside it

I bet there is a place you can get custom leather work done. Can't have a strip mall in Texas without a place you can get a belt with your name on it or a pair of boots with the Dallas Cowboy Star on it.

lol

Meanwhile Houston went all and made Dallas fans look respectable by booing their own team's starting quarterback getting hurt. That's just bad news.

Dear Chargers please sign Keenan Allen long-term your friend Michael
