week 14 other games

[MadScientist]

So much for the Packers clinching the division this week. Vikings are doing to the Steelers what Rodgers usually does to the Bears.

[George Cumby]

Just turned it on.

I did not anticipate this.

160+ yards rushing for the Vikings AT THE HALF.

[Joemailman]

Vikings getting nervous?

[smuggler]

Ended up with an exciting finish. Steelers put themselves into too much of a deficit in the first half, but they almost came back there.

[Joemailman]

[RashanGary]

Two blow outs on. Boring

[Joemailman]

Cowboys lead Team 18-0. Micah Parsons might be Defensive Player Of Year.

Chiefs lead Raiders 21-0. Chiefs looking like it might be 3 straight Superb Owls for them.

[Joemailman]

Team can't stop Parsons.

[Joemailman]

Lamar Jackson ankle injury.

[RashanGary]

Lamar Jackson ankle injury.

I hate to say it, but good. The Packers really have a shot at home field and the bye if they can somehow win out.

[George Cumby]

M3's confidence in his team was well deserved, apparently.

[George Cumby]

Baker Mayfield does not blow my skirt up.

He just doesn't impress me.

[George Cumby]

I wonder if Turdan Meyer is going to fuck up Trevor Lawrence's head the way he's fucked up the rest of that team.

[RashanGary]

Baker Mayfield does not blow my skirt up.

He just doesn't impress me.

Something is off about this analogy. I mean I get it, he doesn’t get you excited. But wouldn’t you be excited by someone else’s skirt being blown up, not your own??

[George Cumby]

Absolutely.

But Baker Mayfield's skirt being blown up wouldn't excite me, either.

[RashanGary]

Absolutely.

But Baker Mayfield's skirt being blown up wouldn't excite me, either.

So bakers skirt doesn’t blow up for you is the right way to say that but since it was wrong to say it that way, you went another direction. It’s all making sense now.

[RashanGary]

Damn, the bills with a bad start. Too bad. This is Tampas last tough game.

[George Cumby]

So bakers skirt doesn’t blow up for you is the right way to say that but since it was wrong to say it that way, you went another direction. It’s all making sense now.

I'm so glad we had this little talk.

[George Cumby]

Bills aren't ready for Prime Time.

[Guiness]

Bills aren't ready for Prime Time.

They really should be, that team is build well except for a deficiency at RB. There is no reason for their inconsistency.

wow Fournette is playing well. 50 yards rushing in the first quarter. Also, Brady has 4 rushes for 17 yards, what is that all about?

[RashanGary]

Bills aren't ready for Prime Time.

The Bills skirt isn’t blowing up for me. Fucking Tampa is gonna win out :roll:

But we have Lamar injured next week. We could win out too.

[George Cumby]

They really should be, that team is build well except for a deficiency at RB. There is no reason for their inconsistency.

Agreed. I've been high on them the last two years, but their inability to play their best in the biggest games is notable and concerning.

[RashanGary]

It’s been a bad day of football. It’s going to be a tough road to win the SB.

[RashanGary]

Tampa is really good. Ugh. We’re gonna need to get healthy to have a shot against them.

[texaspackerbacker]

The way I read the playoff picture, we really really need the Rams to beat Arizona tomorrow night. Not only do we have the head to head on the Cardinals, but if all three teams - Packers, Bucs, and Cards end up with the same 14-3 record, we would get the top seed with only two conference losses compared to three for Arizona and four for Tampa.

I see somebody already mentioned it, but Lamar Jackson was carted off. If we get the Ravens without him, that's big. I doubt any QB means as much to their team as him - other than Aaron Rodgers, of course.

Good points. Cards lose on Monday and we’re in the drivers seat.

[Joemailman]

Nice drive by Bills. Actually used their running backs.

[RashanGary]

Go Bills. They have a good defense too. Maybe a stop here

[Joemailman]

In consecutive weeks, Bills have lost to Bill Belichick and Tom Brady.

[Sparkey]

Bills D isn't good enough to beat an officiating team. The randomness of PI calls is frustrating.

[RashanGary]

Bills D isn't good enough to beat an officiating team. The randomness of PI calls is frustrating.

Officials were sketchy from the 4th quarter, on.

[Bretsky]

Tampa is really good. Ugh. We’re gonna need to get healthy to have a shot against them.


Our room for error is so small

I don't think we can go to Tampa Bay and beat them there; we HAVE to make them come to GB.

Arizona, maybe. But I want them to come to GB as well

[scharpcheddar]

It's better for league if Rams lose.
Keeps 5 through 7 wide open in nfc.

[texaspackerbacker]

How does 4 losing to 1 or vice versa have any effect at all on 5-7?

[Joemailman]

How does 4 losing to 1 or vice versa have any effect at all on 5-7?

Rams are 5.

[texaspackerbacker]

I stand corrected hahahaha. Still, the Rams are 2 ahead of the Niners and 3 ahead of the other 5 or so teams that have a chance in the loss column. Their losing wouldn't do much to change things. The battle is in that cluster of mediocrity battling for the 7th spot - our first round opponent if Arizona doesn't lose.

[Joemailman]

Rams will be without Jalen Ramsey, among others.


The Los Angeles Rams placed Jalen Ramsey and Tyler Higbee on the reserve/COVID-19 list, knocking the star cornerback and starting tight end out of Monday night's key NFC West game against the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium.

They join starting right tackle Rob Havenstein, running back Darrell Henderson and cornerback Dont'e Deayon, who have been placed on the team's COVID list over the past two days.

[Joemailman]

Miami Dolphins running back Phillip Lindsay is joining his backfield mates on the reserve/COVID-19 list, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Monday.

Lindsay tested positive for COVID-19, Pelissero added.

The Dolphins previously placed Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed on the reserve/COVID-19 list late last week after positive tests. With Lindsay joining them, Miami currently doesn't have any running backs on the active roster. The trio's status for Sunday's game against the New York Jets is in doubt.

Could be a busy week for Tua. They've activated Duke Johnson and signed Dexter Williams to practice squad. Dolphins had bye last week.

[RashanGary]

It’s probably going to be more disappointment tonight. The bills couldn’t do shit against the Buccaneers and now we’re going to have to watch the rams fold against the freaking Cardinals.

[RashanGary]

The only bright side of the Cardinals having home field is that there will be 30% Packer fans in their stadium. Probably 30% in Tampa too.

[George Cumby]

Welp.

Packers can't look to the outside for help.

They gots to fix their own situation.

[RashanGary]

Welp.

I’m not a Packer focusing on what I can control. I’m a fan hoping things fall in place.

[George Cumby]

Touche.

[RashanGary]

Go Rams! Aaron Donald forcing that red zone turnover was huge.

Donald isn’t as good as he once was but sometimes he’s as good once as he ever was.

[RashanGary]

Rams playing really well on first down. Good game so far. Man, I’m hoping for a AZ loss here

[MadScientist]

OBJ looking not at all washed up

[RashanGary]

OBJ looking not at all washed up

He looked pretty fast down the sideline. He’s still got it. Just needs to be in the right situation.

[George Cumby]

Stafford is a good QB, but pales in comparison to Rodgers. Rodgers presence and awareness put him on a different plane.

[smuggler]

Ouch. Brutal drop by Hopkins on 4th down. Probably means the game is over. Great for us, sucks for the Cardinals.

[RashanGary]

Missing that 4th down run with 5 minutes left didn’t help the cardinals either. Go Pack! 1 seed!

[RashanGary]

The Buccaneers are probably going to win out with their cupcake schedule.

From here forward it’s win out or lose the 1 seed.

Other than that, it’s hope for Packer health and buccaneers injuries.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Why is McVay stopping the clock for the Rednecks (Irish for Catholics).

[Anti-Polar Bear]

That’s 3 “dagger” picks the Muttonheads dropped.

[George Cumby]

Cardinals also not ready for Prime Time.

[Joemailman]

Cardinals also not ready for Prime Time.

They have 2 big name receivers who are good but don't look elite anymore. Kirk is a good #3.

[Joemailman]

That’s 3 “dagger” picks the Muttonheads dropped.

I was pulling my hair out. I had Murray in fantasy and had a 1.3 point lead. 1 more INT and I would have lost by less than a point.

[texaspackerbacker]

Excellent game for the Packers! I have thought all along that the Rams are the best of the other conference teams, and tonight they played like it.

If I'm not mistaken, we control our own destiny now. After next Sunday, our schedule is fairly cupcake too, and even if the Ravens are not without Lamar Jackson, he likely will be way less than 100%.

[scharpcheddar]

How does 4 losing to 1 or vice versa have any effect at all on 5-7?

Um... Really? Rams losing benefits the 5 six win teams to all have a better chance at playoffs.
But th fact that there's 4 games left still leaves that wide open.
The league was more interested in making the Bucs , Packers more relevant.
But if Rodgers foot narrative gets in the way. Packers won't be any more valid than Rams who will no doubt take a dive now

Isn't this the part of the story where, finally having regained control of their own destiny, the Packers promptly lose? Though losing at home on Christmas day would be a more compelling Hollywood story - but only if they then rebounded to win the Superb Owl.

The O seems to be hitting its stride.

The D is making place when it needs to.

ST's are frightening.

I, amazingly, agree with Cheddar in that the League wants a Boston/Brady 'Owl and will nudge things in that direction.

[texaspackerbacker]

It's gonna end up being the State Farm Bowl which was supposed to happen and didn't in the regular season.

I don't know. They probably wouldn't mind a Rodgers/Mahomes matchup. They could jack up the advertising rates for the State Farm commercials.

[smuggler]

I have a feeling the Bills will win the AFC.

Lol I've never claimed any such SB match up.

[George Cumby]

42

[scharpcheddar]

42

If you only knew what that means.
You don't. Stop acting like a child. You're simply ignorant to the reality of the world

[texaspackerbacker]

You seriously believe the shit you spew?

[Upnorth]

If only we knew the question.
As an aside, where's my towel?

[George Cumby]

Another man of culture, I see.

[Fritz]

I didn't think you two were actually disagreeing when this dust-up started.

Anyway, hooray for the Rams. I would like to see MM bring the Cowboys into Lambeau after a wild-card weekend. Fun.

[Upnorth]

You see Dallas beating the rams? Or am I under rating Dallas?

[texaspackerbacker]

The Cowboys have been in a funk for a few weeks now. I don't know if McCarthy gets the blame or what. If they snap out of it, though, they have the talent to dominate just about anybody on both sides of the ball.

[smuggler]

The funk is that they've been playing capable defenses. But Dallas could win.

[scharpcheddar]

You seriously believe the shit you spew?

I don't have to believe it. It's proven unto itself.
