Last week 11-2-1 and 55-35-1 for the season

N.Y. Jets at New England - Pats.
Miami at Chicago - This is an interesting match up. Don't know Miami at all, as I haven't seen them play much in a few years. I'm going Bears as I am a homer, but this looks pretty much a pickem.
New Orleans at Detroit- I'm going Lions as they do seem the better club. I still have to think the Saints can't be as bad as their record. You got Drew Brees you can get up a couple TDs on any team pretty quick.
Carolina at Green Bay- Packers.
Cleveland at Jacksonville - Browns better win. Coming off their biggest win in a long time, this feels like a serious trap game.
Atlanta at Baltimore - I could believe this being close, but I have to think the Ravens are the better club.
Minnesota at Buffalo- I'm going Bills, but I would believe it if the Viks win.
Cincinnati at Indianapolis- This is an interesting matchup. I'm going Colts.
Tennessee at Washington - Jay Gruden needs a win. I'm going Hatcats, but I kinda hope Tennessee beats them to keep cracking on Snyder.
Seattle at St. Louis- Seahawks.
Kansas City at San Diego - I'm going Chargers but I could see KC giving them a game.
Arizona at Oakland- Cards should win.
N.Y. Giants at Dallas - I'm going Cowboys but hope Giants win.
San Francisco at Denver - I'm going Niners in an upset.
Houston at Pittsburgh - Steelers need a win, I think Houston may be better but give me Pittsburgh at home.

<3

can't decide if phil simms is rooting for the jets or just wants geno to come good but either way he is even more hilarious than usual tonight

tom fucking brady

Amendola TD was sick

hoping edeman and gronk have got all of their drops out of the way for the season in this game

come the fuck on...

can't even lol

L O L O L O L

Hoooollleee sheeeit

most points the jets have scored all season. also geno's first game without a turnover

rando bartender in this texas marriott was a pats fan, we just did a sick hi-5.

:D

i thought geno played a fabulous game btw, he's like a few degrees from being a real good player.

The fact I was rooting for the jets just proves how much I loathe the fucking patriots. Especially with Nants calling the game. "Mr. Kraft" my ass

geno looked better as the game went on i thought but fabulous seems generous! he makes those throws where you think yeah that was pretty nice but i can see why he gets picked off a bunch, but the problem is that's on 10 yard passes. maybe it is the green and white but that is a very...sanchez-like trait.

p good game, jets played well. interesting to think that if the pats threw the ball to convert that 3d & 14 at the end there and were unsuccessful theres a significant increased likelihood that they lose by giving the jets the extra ~40 seconds

& also that in reality if folk makes that 58 yd kick anyway, ppl would scream their nuts off abt how the fuk do you not give brady a chance to end the game by throwing on 3d and 14? those are tuff decisions in the moment

it is less about the 3rd down itself than that they didn't really try to get the first down at all. p much the only thing the jets do at a high level right now is stop the run, so you are not serious about getting yards if you have shane vereen rush into mo wilkerson when they are expecting you to run. they got the ball one set of downs away from a FG, i would've at least tried a 1st down play action pass. i understand trusting your defense - whatever you think of geno these guys are not at a point where they are scary if they need to move the ball a distance quickly - but as phil simms brilliantly worked out for himself, the patriots play a defense that allows yards between the 20s. they gave geno the throw-where-you-want treatment normally reserved for manning bros deep in the 4th.

the fact that they were 1 set of downs from a fg is meaningless but I do agree, they didn't try to get a 1st down, and trusting a defense that allowed the jets to move the ball all game is hellof risky. I still think belichick in general played it correctly, if they try a playaction pass and its dropped, that's too big a risk imo

well, you are 2nd and 10 and you know you have to make a 1st down now. that is still not a horrible worse case scenario. i mean, if your first read doesn't look promising you can sit on the ground and keep the clock moving.

geno looked better as the game went on i thought but fabulous seems generous! he makes those throws where you think yeah that was pretty nice but i can see why he gets picked off a bunch, but the problem is that's on 10 yard passes. maybe it is the green and white but that is a very...sanchez-like trait.

yeah i thought there were a lot of plays where he had no one to throw to and either used his legs or at least minimized the damage. it really seemed like the turnovers were coming and he managed to play a clean and reasonably efficient game.

seems like a reasonably mobile qb can always get decent scramble yards vs ne and i am sure they prepped for that but i did like that he didn't rush to pull the ball down and kept looking downfield as long as he could

lol https://vine.co/v/OqPtYzWdUEU

that is so great

marks got some tendies

like usually the backup tries to point out holes in the defense or which receivers were covered but it's Mark Sanchez so you just get the Chicken Tender Report

what the what

Jay Glazer ‏@JayGlazer 1m1 minute ago
Again, I'm reporting The JETS have just agreed with Seattle to a trade sending WR Percy Harvin to NY for conditional pick

jesus what round i wonder

@PFTCommenter: Slowdown people Pete Carroll is allways spreading false rumors about Jets

Jets are one receiver away.

dafuq

wow that brady flop is impressive

The Jets are just a grease fire year after year. Even when they are winning it's greasy. NYC is just filled with pro sports teams with the biggest gift market in the universe and they are just shabbily run year after year.

wow ramz

bad football + bad announcing on this hatcats vs titans game

"He makes the tough throws look easy and the easy throws look tough!"
"That's tough!"
"It is tough."

Well the bills decided to finally use cj spiller properly in an attempt to make him attractive to trade suitors and he broke his collarbone.

all these last minute endings involve some *BAD* teams

sammy watkins!!

the colt mccoy led http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG defeated the charlie whitehurst led titans

Oh Browns...why you so predictable.

Browns looked so bad that I have no words.

Colts demolished the Bengals 27-0 and it really wasn't even that close as Indy had a couple fumbles that probably cost them 10 points or so. Cincy could not move the ball at all.

Seattle is looking more Kiss Dynasty than Steeler's dynasty these days at 3-3.

!!!romoception alert!!!

romoscore nyah

Oh man, lol. He'll get fined, but lol anyway.

DO YOU REALLY THINK WE DON'T KNOW THAT DARNELL YOU C##T

god forbid fans of a shitty-ass team still go to a game gee the storied cardinals wouldnt know anything about that would they

sorry

it is funny

but still

fuck him

i like the idea of guys on the sidelines trolling fans w/white boards though. good idea

wow peyton got that record

wtf was that omg

peyton should retire after this game

did you all see the person riding the white horse across the field with a giant 509 TOUCHDOWNS flag
super weird. there has to be a gif out there

Football horse :

welp

like a dirty kleenex

yeah if the cowboys can't do anything with him right now he isn't going to be an nfl player

the cowboys are 6-1

So 8-8 is still possible!

Damn, how are the Cowboys 6-1 but only have 6 sacks for the whole season.

xp yeah but 1) not off the back of their pass rush and 2) if rod marinelli can't make you a useful DE you're probably just not useful

He looked pretty useful in the preseason. Find it hard to believe he can't be a package edge rusher for a bad team.

He'll find his way to either New England or Oakland, if not this year then next.

new england will try him out at some point, based on the principle that ne tries out every single free agent once

turns out that little game of keepaway between Peyton and his teammates after 509 was Peyton's idea beforehand and that they had practiced before the game. so that's kinda weird.
