Packers vs Bears tonight
It'll be interesting to see if Rodgers still looks like he's playing while stoned. Lacy is out and they traded to Knile Davis but he just got there so who runs the ball? A FB and a WR that's who.
Maybe the Bears listen to Alshon and "score farging touchdowns"
Can I see this one or not?
Packers and Bears, do you really want to?

I'm gonna let you figure this one out
Matt Barkley is about to come in
It's like playing a scratch off with the tv remote...maybe you'll win
I think the NFL should cancel Thursday Night Football after this game and admit it's not working out.
Yep. It's pretty awful.
So are the officials. Flags galore
they need to find better teams to put on the national games
they are getting super unlucky this year with all these bears games
also the packers are trash, that doesnt help
Also these mid-week games seem to be injuring more guys, and the teams seem even less prepared than Vaitai. Put some good teams on TNF and maybe they won't be that good.
But they're shoving Tenny vs JAX down outlet throats again next Thursday
Probably in smurf blue vs baby shtein yellow uniforms too
miami va tech newbs
theyre not shoving anything down your throat....theyre airing a game that you as a free american can watch or not watch. its actually a good idea to put those trash teams together than have them pollute 2 different games.

i dont disagree that the tnf thing isnt great, but the alternatives are
1. get rid of it and place these 15 games on sunday afternoon where nobody will see them. for better or for worse, this is football that you wouldnt otherwise be able to see
2. give teams a bye week before. would improve the product, but would hurt the sunday cards for cbs and fox and make scheduling much more difficult.
a good compromise IMO would be increasing saturday games, specifically late in the season as not to compete with cfb, adding 930 london games and limiting thursday games to early in the season (when bodies are fresher). that would keep the same amount of national tv games as is current and prevent consistent national tnf games that are subpar.
And of course lil guys disagrees. We've got Goodell Jr in the house folks!
Take away TNF
Split the Sunday slate evenly between early and late window.
you know its very easy to just not watch...trust me you wont miss anything
im actually flipping btwn edm-stl and baseball

im not disagreeing im explaining to you....you have zero clue about how the schedule is put together for tv
you are naturally only thinking of yourself with this stuff. what would be best for j? well j isnt John Q Football Fan. and j isnt the on the board of cbs/fox who are paying over a billion a year for this shtein.
the tv schedule is constructed to maximize exposure and ratings. the issue is its becoming increasingly difficult to pinpoint the games needed to accomplish that.

Jesus Christ, the only way anyone could care less about a professional football game is if they had those two teams playing in London.
How is that a catch?
I mean in today's NFL. No one knows what's what.

Was this about the Devonte Adams catch that was reviewed and upheld? Because that was 100% the correct review call. Or was it something else?
Yes it was and I worded my post poorly
I thought it was but what I was trying to convey is that other more indisputable catches have been overturned and his ball scraped the ground which invokes the Bert Emanuel rule.
Inconsistency on what a catch is
Gotcha. Thing with that catch though was that had it been called incomplete on the field, I don't think the replay overturns it. I do think they called it correctly though and there wasn't enough evidence to take it away.
Rams up 10-0...now tied thanks to overrated and overpaid Tavon Austin having one go off his hands. Helluva return by Collins for the TD
Come on St. Angeles handle biz
and now he fumbles a punt
Damn son pull your head out of your ass
Fielding and fair catching punts inside the 10 is an epidemic
Austin just fair caught one around the 5
Jared Goff isn't better than Keenum yet?!
Jesus Christ Keenum and the Rams offensive coordinator should be left in England
Sorry bums
Oh my god
That's how you end it Keenum?
I'm offended at having to watch him play QB
Detroit making it interesting at the end here.
LOL
Anquan Boldin
LOL
Matt Stafford
LOL
Thanks Detroit!
Jacksonville is never going to be good.
In what looked like a year they'd make that leap they're still shtein.
Bortles looks awful. Time to trade the Gus Bus in.
And let's talk about Tampa
New HC who is supposed to be an offensive guru. Was their OC last year. This year? Him and Jameis look awful.
Cementing his loser status is Ryan Fitzpatrick
"They stopped believing in me" ... talking about the owner, coaches and GM.
Bro you threw how many picks?
How is Sam Rosen still doing PBP?
It just took him four tries to get Dontrelle Inman's name right
Wow! ATL went for it and SD stopped them!
Denzel Perryman has balled out today
WTF Atlanta?

Didn't see the game but apparently they had a huge meltdown in the fourth quarter. Players ejected? Jags flagged for 13 penalties
I know Ramsey got kicked out not sure who the other one was
But yeah they have to fire bradley and get an offensive guy in there to help Bortles
Neither team had a three and out today in the Saints and Chiefs game

I agree they never should have sat him, but only because they paid him $12 million and his backup Geno is, at best, as bad as Fitz. The main difference between those two bad QBs is that at least Fitz can point to more than 2 games in his whole career where he played well.
the jets couldve had sam bradford, who is competent, for like a 2nd or 3rd rd pick
instead their season is over and their qb is crying. good stuff.
i realize this game may not appeal to everyone but i find it fascinating
Me too
I'm enjoying it
Bobby Swagner!
Unreal for catanzaro to miss that.
Equally unreal for Hauchska to miss too
farging amazing
6-6 tie
i dont know if that game was good or bad but i was glued to the teevee
the tie also clinched a 4-0 week for me in the bullet, which comes on the heels of 6 awful weeks.
Good job on 4-0
I went 3-1 after weeks of shtein
Lol ESPN airing Arians and he dropped "it's all bullshtein"
first tie without a td since 1972 eagles/cardinals
check out this box score http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/197211050phi.htm
pete liske doing WORK
SC just showed highlights from a 1983 game between the Giants & Cardinals where the Cards kicker missed 3 FG attempts in OT, and one of them was like a 20 yarder. Game ended in a tie.
Derek Newton - the Texans RT - got the rare double air casts. One for each leg.
Looked like he pulled a Wendell Davis and blew both patella tendons
Yep - both torn. That sucks!
Osweiler biggest contract thief ever?

I'm going with Matt Flynn on that one. Could also put half of the Eagles FAs of the last decade on that list.
Good call on Flynn
Osweiler is 6-8 or whatever and keeps getting passes batted down
