ryan lindley era

thursday night field goal showcase

Currently doing my best to remain a Vikings fan despite overwhelming evidence that my fellow fans are far more angry about Roger Goodell abusing the process of the personal conduct policy than they are at Adrian Peterson abusing (sorry! *going too far in an attempt to discipline*) his 4 year old son.

It will never happen, but it would be cool if he tried.

lol that its been > 1 full year since kc has a wide receiver td

xp Oh I didn't realize Drew Stanton got injured too. Man, they're kinda fucked at this point.

1st quarter pats just starting their 2nd possession after miami started with the ball and had back to back possessions following the blocked field goal returned for td. commentators keep talking about how miami had more yards than ne in the 1st quarter...

how can we explain this mystery???

dang matt ryan just got kilt

update: pats score off a long int return, commentary team still puzzling over how miami is behind but has more yards of offense

not sure what is happening at buffalo but after 22 mins of football rodgers had 24 rush yards and only 6 more pass yards

I've seen some bad football in Cleveland but this is the worst first half in history.

sad lol

i saw that early play where clev blew dalton the fuck up right up the middle in amazing fashion…and it was a pers foul

Browns have so many penalties. Haden is hurt. Offsides on every offensive play. Can't stop the run.

Browns have to call a timeout coming out of the two minute warning.

Manziel int

Manziel 4 of 9 with 2 interceptions in the first half.

classic demoralization of the miami dolphins in progress

aw man rip fitzmagic :(

finally seeing some of this gb-bills game, bills front making a light snack of the gb o-line

not surprising except in the degree

nfc south is amazing

That interception Manziel threw in the end zone was ridiculous, how does he think he's gonna get away w that shit?

kinda heartening that GB only lost by 8 considering all the awful things they endured. I mean Rodgers didn't even play *that* bad despite his terrible stats - there were just so many dropped balls, or balls where the receiver didn't know the play call, neither pick was a particularly bad throw, and Jordy straight up dropped a touchdown that would've swung the game

congrats Buffalo your NFC North champs

Buffalo's defense looked really tough. Seemed to always have their hands near the ball, made open field tackles, got tons of pressure on the QB even though I don't think they sacked him. If they had half of an offense they would be scary.

Browns unveil the read option in week 14. Literally no one on the offense knew the plays.

I don't think I've been as emotionally invested in hoping a player fails since Tebow

btw why was the bengals-browns game on fox???

#brockbox

love a good 5-3 halftime score

i feel so bad for cleveland. they going to put hoyer back in or what?

it's manziel the rest of the year

denver got a playoff win out of tebow, top that cleveland!

all the afc conference champs are decided

divisions not conference i mean

not the north

hm yea the thing i was looking at was stupid n/m

wow iggles look terrible

fletcher is the worst defensive back in the league t/f

IGGLES

OF COURSE christie is a cowboys fan

a football team turns over so quickly it's really hard to say that any particular characteristic is embedded in a team's "dna," and yet here we are again with the cowboys fucking up a winnable game that they need to have.

lol ok then

is there anything worse than jerry jones being happy? if nothing else it is a wasted opportunity for jerry jones to miserable, which is always good value.

i think these cowboys are dangerously close to breaking the usual cowboys narrative. the defense is still baffling tho, held together with wishes and PMA. i can see the fairytale ending spectacularly with something like a 60-28 hiding by GBP.

dez tho man

oh there's no way they're going anything resembling the distance, they have too many holes

At least hold off once you're down here as HC next year.

Xxxpost

I love this Cowboys team and hope they have postseason success

my man

Jets defense has been playing pretty hard in that losing streak, so I get what Ryan meant.

Cowboys offensive line is pretty good, they have seemed to drafted some a good ones. From that the running game and improving passing game has been built. The biggest difference is that their defense is much, much improved over last year. If you give Jerrah crap when they sucked, I got to give the Devil a bit of due, this years Cowboys is improved. Will this turn into post season success? That is TBD.

Philly is starting to get banged up on both sides of the ball. The QB play is part of the issue, but their O-line and defense are starting to get knicked up.

Vikings really gave Detroit a gift yesterday, erase one of two missed field goals and we win

feels strange to say this about Detroit but they have got to be the luckiest team this year, they seem to constantly be coming out flat and finding a way to eke out a win in the end, same as they did during their playoff year. in other words I'd be shocked if they did anything during the playoffs though they're definitely a good team on paper

it is unbelievable that detroit is currently the 2 seed in the nfc

They are not doing shit, Vikings should have won that game and had a chance at end despite those 2 missed field goals and the bad ints at end of first half

assuming that the ESPN playoff calculator thing works properly, i was playing around with it last night and dallas loses tiebreakers to just about everyone, so they actually have to win that division, which effectively means they have to win out. hosting the colts next week will be interesting, kinda sucks they clinched already. assuming they do beat indy and hatcats, the eagles then seem to be next bottom of the tiebreaker pile. barring a surprise result or two, there is a good chance someone is getting 11-5 but not making the playoffs, and right now that looks like philly.

what happens if Dallas loses to Indy and Philly wins their next two? both teams would be 11-5 with 1-1 head to head.

they would have same record, dallas better conf record

same division record i mean

if the cowboys lose once and the eagles win out, it's the cowboys who are out

If Seattle loses @ Arizona but wins at home vs. St. Louis, could they be out at 11-5? I don't get this tiebreaker system :/

wait n/m, Seattle would be 9-3 in the division which trumps what Dallas or Philly can get

if the cowboys lose once and the eagles win out, it's the cowboys who are out

ok double checked this myself. if dallas's loss is to indy they go thru - same record, split head to head, same division record, better record vs common opponents. if dallas beats indy and loses to washington, philly goes thru with better division record. as special as dallas losing to washington would be...

damn, that should read same record vs common opponents, better conference record.

I really like Andrew Luck, he is quite a bit different than Peyton in many ways beyond the weird beard.

if the cowboys lose once and the eagles win out, it's the cowboys who are out

dallas already has 2 losses in the division, philly has 1. if philly wins out and dallas loses once (doesn't matter to whom), philly wins the division with the better division record

oh yeah, guess i got their division records flipped. well, score one for the ESPN playoff machine then.

Haha

wow the bears are terrible. it's incredible how quickly this team has just fallen apart in the trestman era.

any perceptive bears fan shouldve been doubling-quadrupling their hellspawns college fund these last few wks imo

The last few games they have played make them look about as bad a team there is in the NFL. I'm pretty sure Jax would clean their clock right now. Bears arent even putting up a fight.

Totally. Every Bears fan I know is calling for Trestman's head and most of 'em want to see Cutler done too. I can't imagine sacking Cutler is going to improve anything though, especially since there are probably nearly a dozen teams who would pick him up right now. But man, what a dumpster fire they've been since that game at Lambeau.

Cutler's a tough one because they may be right, he may not have that something that will get you over the top, but at the same time, as a Vikings fans I can tell you when you are on the outside looking out for a QB it sucks...outside of Favre it's just been this constant parade of also-rans, retreads, and losers....Teddy is showing some promise so fingers crossed....

but it's like Cutler sucks until you ditch him and end up trying to trade for Brian Hoyer

I think he'd be able to get Arizona over the top.

"that something that will get you over the top" = a good offensive line iirc

yeah that too!

this is bizarre: http://blogs.mercurynews.com/kawakami/2014/12/12/levis-part-2/

* Harbaugh wanted to keep the team based in their old locker room, next to the practice field and save the Levi’s locker room just for game days, to make it special.

York and Baalke wanted the team in the Levi’s locker room permanently–where there’s better equipment, more space–and as the 49ers figured out how to handle of this, many of the players just started going over to Levi’s, anyway, because of the nicer environs.

The compromise: The 49ers decided to keep two locker rooms and the players can choose which one to dress in during the week.

Seems logical, but the result is that many veterans stay in the old locker room, everybody else is in the new one, and often they never see each other after practice or between meetings.

There are literally two camps, two locker room atmospheres, two factions of 49ers.

-Old locker room: Justin Smith, Ray McDonald, Anquan Boldin, among others.
-New locker room: Colin Kaepernick, Frank Gore, the entire offensive line, Glenn Dorsey, Antoine Bethea, Eric Reid, the kickers.

haha this is gonna be so much fun

The compromise: The 49ers decided to keep two locker rooms and the players can choose which one to dress in during the week.

incredible.

Insanity above and beyond even a Mike Singletary level.

didn't singletary moon the whole team once in a tirade?

if they were in two locker rooms he only would've gotten to moon half the time

Stunner from Chicago: Bears starting QB Jimmy Clausen this week, per source.

http://img.pandawhale.com/post-24400-Seinfeld-thats-enough-gif-nHrW.gif

Lmao

i assume the bears were worried that ppl might stop talking about what a fiasco they are.

new qb, new o-line:

hahaha what a shitshow

you can't start jimmy clausen. you just can't.

DUDE WAS QB FOR NOTRE DAME, don't underestimate the Chicago Bear front office and some of the fan base to be blinded by that fact.
