Just watched the highlights. Whappened did Purdy get benched after his third pick or so?

Also, Lamar you are one elusive sonofabitch. Good game.

he threw 4 picks, and no he got pulled after a sack for an "arm stinger"

Winning somehow keeps the Raiders alive but most importantly it ruined the Chief's seeding. God truly smiled upon me this day.

Raiders can earn the 3rd seed with wins @Ind & vDen, and the Chiefs losing vCin & @S.D, plus Jax & Hou both dropping one of their games.

That's the thing for Baltimore too. The Ravens are beat to hell. If they can win next week they get to rest week 18 and get the bye. That could be huge for Hamilton, Andrews, Stanley, and 50 other guys.

Baltimore winning next week could help Pittsburgh sneak into the playoffs. It would invite the Ravens to rest some folks (maybe after a half) in Wk18, and it would force Miami to go all-out vs Buffalo. Of course that's all moot if Pittsburgh loses in Seattle, so we'll see.

Please God no, I still have nightmares about resting starters on the last regular season game of 2019 and into the bye. get the win but don't rest lots of people on week 18

That was because of Mark Ingram's injury in the Cleveland game and Roman being dumb and panicking and throwing 60 times when our offense was scoring like 40 points a game like we couldn't somehow make up two touchdowns with most of the game left.

I’m still amazed at how open Kittle was able to get downfield. Thank god the defensive line put Purdy in hell because they were immediately getting some chunk plays that teams don’t usually get on the Ravens.

Tattoos? On MY black quarterback?
I would just like to say that while that game was good and encouraging I do not believe Bryce will be able to replicate that performance consistently enough in the future to be a starting NFL QB. You gotta be able to do it every week and I don't see that in our future. But hey, I'll always enjoy a good QB performance.

Got to exercise those demons. Rest for season weary players is good. Rust is only a product of bad coaching and inexperienced youths. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages by miles.


In my heart I am also terrified of the bye.

I think the most upset i’ve ever been at sports was several years ago when Michigan botched a punt against Michigan State at the end of the game, costing Michigan what was a sure win.

I drove 25 minutes to a no-kill animal shelter in Phoenix and just chilled in a room with like 2 dozen cats for an hour.

It was cathartic and pleasant.

The O-line play is what really shocked me. Those flat out are not the same tackles that nearly killed Lamar against the Jaguars. If they can keep playing like that the sky is the limit.

It is interesting that I've adapted to saying the Rams are in LA instead of St. Louis, but the Chargers simply feel like a San Diego team.

Raiders are also a coinflip for being called Oak or LV.
