I was on my way to winning my one league until he stepped on the field. I'll probably lose by 20, but if Oakland knew what a tackle was then I would have won

That's right, cause the Falcons are the only one with a 0 still in their record.

My Cowboys have a bunch of zeros: A few on the field. A few on the sidelines. One in the Owner's box.

well the refs sure hate Buffalo. 10 penalties for something like 120 yards in the first half. 2 bullshit pass interference calls in the endzone when the ball was no where near catchable, another pass int midfield that was called 20 yards away from the ball (clearly a illegal contact, not pass int), and a phantom holding call that took away a first down and made it 3rd and like 17. Even so they somehow made it close. NE's defense is pretty bad, if they go against a competent defense that can hold them under 24 points, they will lose. Luck may very well break his own record of most pass yards in a game for a rookie next week
Falcon's perfection is over. I fail to understand not being able to score on a 2nd and goal at the 1 late in the game vs a garbage defense
Eli and the Giants suck. Miami play calling is just terrible (4 carries for Bush and 40 passes for Tannehill...something isnt right there). And yes I am venting because these 3 players cost me a fantasy win.

Their backfield was getting penetrated like a slut on roofies, zero run game the whole game and they still wasted a down trying to push it in.

Not to mention a few stupid penalties the Bills did actually commit, Ron Brooks gets knocked out of bounds and continues to run out oof bounds for 30+ yards, Gilmore's face mask one.
Nice to see Chan grown a set and go for it on 4th and 3.
Hopefully the Freddy fumbles, get CJ the majority of the carries from here on out. once again he showed why he should be starting 9 carries for 70 something yards, plus 4 catches for another 40 something. Not to mention he was WIDE OPEN on the play where Fitz threw the pick to end the game, on Graham's horrible ran route. Naaman Roosevelt would have been doing much better with that roster spot, Graham has been a waste of a 3rd RD pick.
The Def. still looked pretty bad, nothing new, only time we stopped them was because Welker dropped passes.

Clearly their run blocking has been pretty shitty this year if Turner is getting a career low ypc...it's not Turner's fault. All you need is a simple yard, its not a terrible call to try to run one in. A pitch to Rodgers might have been a better call

oh for sure, especially to start the game when they were 3rd and 1 and made it 3rd and 21 on 3 straight penalties. But the one's I was referring to directly impacted the game...most of the others just made better field position for NE.
Freddy is still a great back, fumbles aside. I like how they give them both their touches, but imo Jackson should be used more when the game is close or Buffalo somehow has a lead and Spiller should get more touches when they are trailing.

as did SF. Ties in sports is one of the lamest things ever. It's part of the reason why I don't watch soccer.

Yep!... Imagine paying an NFL ticket to a tie game. Your team didn't lose but you still don't have a reason to celebrate.

0-3 in fantasy this weekend, but the Bengals won and I made $50 on the Denver game. I think it worked out just fine for me.

Has the NFL ever released a statement addressing how a tie game is a reasonable outcome in a sport that could easily have a sudden death OT? I say let them play, ties are stupid.

Wow, cool infographic on the NFL. Going clockwise, each team has beaten the next this season. Gotta love a league with so much parity

they partially eliminated a sudden death OT by allowing the other team a possession after giving up a FG. I agree, it's not like these guys are playing the next night...or 6 days later

HUGE win for the Bills tonight. Like I said on twitter before the game, the defense needed a huge game, they sure as hell delivered.
Spiller did his thing, like he has all season, he showed how he should be the primary RB, like most of us Bills fans believe, well at least the logical ones. Michael Irivin also showed he loves him some Spiller.
Fitz was Fitz, still can't hit a WR in running down the sideline, but not totally his fault as there was a few pass interference plays against the Phins, and our WR's have no breakaway speed.
I feel bad for Chris Sabal, those Dolphins that looked promising a few weeks ago, are falling fast.

Sparky is a Cardinals fan...he's basically going through what we did last year.
One one hand I'm happy Buffalo won on prime time. On the other I just want them to tank, finish 5-11, get a top 7 pick and draft a WR. Donald Jones sucks. Brad Smith is useless unless hes returning a kick. Graham has not shown us that he can be anything more than a #3. Nelson isn't anything more than a decent slot receiver when healthy. Fitz has 1 legit WR, an underused TE, and his RBs as his only options....and Chandler/Spiller/Jackson block a lot of the time.
This season is all but over. They need to fire their D coordinator (even though they looked good tonight) and find someone to compliment Stevie.

Sounds like Gronk broke his forearm. He was having another huge year. Wonder how long he'll be out?

the guy on the SNF desk beside Dungy said it took him 6 weeks to recover...so basically we won't see him til the playoffs as NE will have locked up the division in a couple weeks
can someone explain how Chad effing Henne and the Jags almost beat the Texans?
