Bunch of dumbasses

A couple weird scores at the moment, GB over LA 10-8, and SF over Arizona 5-3.

Bears defeat Jets 24-10, improve to 4-3 and guarantee the Lions fall back to the NFCN cellar all alone again. Packers w/slim lead 10-8 over @ Rams @ halftime. Vikings play tonight @ Saints. Panthers defeat Ravens 36-21. If the Lions had heightened aspirations for making the playoffs this season prior to today, their chances have dimmed in the worst way so far, and could even become much worse if the Packers and Vikings win this evening. Even if they were to split vs the Bears and Vikings, but lose vs Panthers and Rams, means they are done, no matter how well they might play the rest of their schedule.

Talk about a bad play at games end.

Talk about a bad play at games end.

Packers lose because they also have an idiot who thinks it's a good idea to try and return the kick off instead of just take the ball at the 25 and give your all world QB 2:10 seconds to get you a FG. He fumbled and the Rams get the ball back and end up running out the clock. Conversely, Gurley had a chance to score a TD in the closing moments but chose to get tackled inbounds so they could just run out the clock...to the dismay of gamblers and fantasy owners everywhere. Closing line was 7.5 points (earlier in the week it was as high as 9.5) and that would have put them up 9 with the extra point.

Saints are really good.

We were watching the game and couldn't believe he brought it out of the endzone. Then he fumbles. What a dope!

Sounds like a whole story here. Was watching pro football talk this Morning and he was freaking told not to bring the ball out . Sounds like he was pissed about something. Glad he fumbled . Helped the Lions out.

I'd rather see AR with the ball in his hand with 2 minutes to go.

 

[biggunsbob]

Bills hanging tough with New England.

Not me I hate the Packers . They could lose every game and that would make me happy.

 

[biggunsbob]

Just like that Van Noy gets a sack and and fumble for the Pats. He plays so good for a New England.

12-6 end the the third quarter. Bills hanging in there.
Pick 6 New England. That will seal the game . Man the Patriots play hard. Wish our team played like the Patriots.

 

[brewer229]

I know im like 30 minutes behind in this game, but wow edleman is a dirty player. Another example on the punt return. As the returner after fair catch launches head first in to the helmet of a coverage guy

 

[biggunsbob]

The way the Bills defense is playing that game will not be easy for Detroit.

Looks like it got him traded.

On the other side Minnesota seems to have a boat load of injuries. The Lions M.O. - win vs a team we expect to lose against, hopes go up and then get smacked by a team we should beat .. We've seen it 1000 times over the years. Sometime next year we'll be calling for Quinn and Patricia to get canned. Too soon so far on Patricia but expected more, an Quinn blows. I'm tired of 9-7 seasons.

I think Quinn is making some pretty sound player moves with his trades, free agents and draft picks. His biggest blunder was not cleaning house with the coaching staff the day he was hired. Then he kept JBC when he hired Patricia.
