Last night's Packers v 49ers OMG.

professor

propman go Rams and Broncos!

Go Lions and Broncos. Still, I don't know who's going to knock Seattle down a notch, or two?

Sneakylong Tale of two half’s. Patriots dominated the first half and Buffalo dominated the second half.

It’s been like that all year. I missed almost all of the first half but when I saw it 21-0 the first thing I said to myself was “good thing we built a big lead because we do nothing in the second half.” Plus, Bills are a second half team. When the commentators mentioned the Pats big lead I laughed and said, “ you idiots.”

I’m one of those guys that just has a hard time thinking the team is as good as their record says. If they won today, that would have changed my mind.

This year has been a pleasant surprise. Some had them making the playoffs, but no one expected this.

The Patriots defense couldn’t stop Allen and the Bills in the second half. They were on the field a lot. lol The Patriots abandoned the running game as well.

And it seemed the Pats receivers couldn’t get open the few times they had the ball in the second half. Regardless they’re still in good shape. Have the Ravens, Jets and Dolphins remaining.

That said, this should be Allen’s year with his nemesis / kryptonite Mahomes / Chiefs out. He sure as hell put his Superman’s cape on yesterday.

Lions can't stop Nacua!😉

Not that it matters now but Mahomes tore an ACL

candukid looking bleak for KC next year without Mahomes for most of the season.

Brutal. Injury just killing GB. We lost our best offensive player to an ACL earlier in the year, and today our best defensive player. Tack on a key OL and a key WR and it is hard to come back from that. 3 key guys in one game. Ugh. That being said we are still in a good position to make the playoffs but will need to find a way to rally the troops. Defense just cannot get off the field in the 2nd half. We throw too much on offense and don't sustain enough drives in the 2nd half to give the D a break. Better teams are gonna take us out unless we figure that dynamic out. It's like we are trying to put up a 40 spot but it backfires. It's the same thing in everyone of our losses and near losses, and the tie.

propman

ode hope Pack figure things out no earlier than next Sunday.😁

Oh, that's right. You're a two-headed fan. Just when the Commodores have their first matchup with the Eagles...

professor Just when the Commodores have their first matchup with the Eagles...

The Commander's season has been over for weeks. Your Eagles have the pleasure of beating them twice in the next 3 weeks. I wouldn't use the word "matchup" either. Hurts will figure out that secondary by the 2nd quarter. Washington is just a broken team right now.

sdandrea1 Eagles can't rest either unless Cowboys lose their next game, which is a toss-up with the Chargers.

Something wrong with the Cowboys. Allegedly, Dak’s in the prime of his career and elite. And he’s got great talent at receiver. Yet, they don’t win. What’s the deal with them.

There's 21 other players out there.

propman

professor nothing new with cowboys. Always look good on paper...

rsvman2

professor Their offense is actually pretty strong. I think Dak is overrated, but he's competent. Their receivers are good. Their O-line is good.

Their defense is better now than it was at the beginning of the season, but it is still their weak spot, especially against good running teams.

Jerry never has thought coaching was that important. Has said as much in the past. Specifically when Jimmy Johnson was there. That’s why Jimmy Johnson and Bill Parcels moved on. He cheaps out on coaches. Doesn’t hold them in high regard.

You’d think after 30 years of dry spells he’d change his mind.

professor

azgreg There's 21 other players out there.

Yes, that’s why I asked what’s wrong with “them”?

johnnydoom

I've hardly watched them but am under the impression that their defense really sucks. They're certainly in bad company when it comes to opponents points per game.

azgreg

professor
I think it starts with their shitty general manager (Jones).
