Thats a nice Game 7 you have there. Would be a shame if somebody nailed it down.
Nuk Hopkins is the truth.

TJ Yates coming in to save the day against the loving Bengals (again, drat near four exact seasons ago) has my mind completely blown and I don't know what the gently caress I am doing with my life now.

Ryan Griffin was definitely the better TE tonight what the gently caress.

The offense was sloppy and the receiving corp turned in a remarkably bad performance. Several drives that were humming along nicely got killed by stupid penalties or dropped passes that were easily catchable. This team has no excuse for consistently committing formation errors, that's just bad. Also the play-calling was weird. Why didn't they give it to Gio more?

I thought Dalton was fine, personally. I mean not great, but I don't think Bad Andy showed up or anything. He made accurate passes when his receivers got open, seemed calm and didn't do panicky retard things like he has in the past.

I'm not too disappointed, I figured they would lose because this seemed like the kind of game an undefeated team would inexplicably drop for some reason.

Good for you Texans fans. :)

Can't for the 19-0 Super Bowl

Cowboys get Romo back that week :ohdear: it's also on primetime :ohdear: Washington and New York are looking surprisingly competent lately too.

Tyrod is probably the only x factor I can see pulling something out against the pats. Patriots have always struggled against mobile quarterbacks because it's harder for Belichick to cheat and steal signals etc because they're so good at improvising. Cam broke them a few years ago on third downs running the ball from a collapsing pocket. I guess maybe the Broncos defense could do something amazing and pull one out but after that... welp.

I guess though if both teams get through the next two weeks they've both got a legit shot at going 16-0. Never thought I'd be typing that sentence when Benjamin went down.

The lucky escape from Indy was worse than the Pats v Giants IMO. The defensive line getting some players back has helped correct the defensive hole pretty rapidly as instead of them getting weaker against the Titans like was the norm the three weeks prior they got better as the game wore on. Charles Johnson is back practicing too. Can't wait till he's back on the field. Funchess is starting to look like an actual NFL player the last two weeks too.

The team could actually get stronger the next few weeks.

Why is everyone acting like the Pats barely beating the Giants is proof that the Pats are beatable? The Giants were the last bastion of hope. Elisha used to be our comic foil. The fact that we won proves we have finally achieved perfection. We are unstoppable. We are transcendent.

Patriots have the best scoring margin at 14.9, Panthers are 4th at 8.9. That's reason enough to keep the Pats at #1.

Well that and the Panthers mystery loss. I will blame Ehud

Andy Dalton is such a soft little bitchboy. After JJ Watt said they made "the Red Rifle look like a Red Ryder BB gun"

he said

quote:

"I am disappointed in him for the integrity of this game," the Bengals quarterback said. "I have a lot of respect for him. He's a really good player. And so there's a lot of kids and a lot of people that look up to him. And for him to make comments like that, it just shows that it's acceptable to do that kind of stuff and say that kind of stuff. So I mean, it's disappointing for one of the best players in this league to come out and say something like that.

"I think J.J. is a good player but for him to be one of the best in this league and just show that integrity and show that type of -- you know it shows what he's about, which is disappointing."

Let it be known I'm all for anyone doing what they must to destroy the cult of personality around overgrown boy scout jj watt. Its a shame that one of the first volleys had been fired by the least charismatic man in America, but he's doing his part and god bless him.
