Unbelievable game. Two great offenses, two dynamic quarterbacks, three terrible announcers.

Romo annoys me the most. I have said this before. I appreciate his analysis to a degree, but his attitude and know it all tone just rubs me the wrong way.

I love how Boger says holding.
Halding number 77. He is a bad ref. Though I don’t think Clete Blakeman is better.
I like when Bill Vinovich, Brad Allen Walt Coleman John Parry ref the games. They are good refs.

you would like Walt Coleman. Funny tidbit he hasn't done a Raiders game since.

He hasn’t done a game in Oakland but done Raiders games.
The Tuck Rule was called 100% correctly in that spot. In fact that same season the Patriots lost a game to the Jets week 2 because Testaverde did the same thing as Brady and it was called an incomplete pass over a fumble and the Pats didn’t get the ball at the Jets 5.

It was a tough call but nobody outside of true Patriots haters or Raiders fans think that was called incorrectly.
The NFL subsequently got rid of that rule but it was called right.

After reading this article and hearing Tessitore he is a hardo and awful announcer.
ESPN Handpicked Joe Tessitore to Rebuild Its Relationship With the NFL—Here’s Why

Not a Tessitore fan at all. I'm a huge college football fan and noticed that whenever he called the game he could never ID players on tackles etc. He just wings it. Empty suit. Sean McDonough is 10x better than Tessitore.

People hated the rule more than the call.

So is Trubiski a bad good quarterback or a good bad quarterback ?

He’s whatever Eli Manning is.

Well that would be a HOFer...and Tessitore is not that.

Maholmes and brees should be co mvps

Brees has to be the leader now. Mahomes had 5 turnovers last night along with those 6 TD's. That was a Brett Favresque performance if I have ever seen one.

Tannehill’s back and I have less faith than ever.


May this be a melisandre, jon snow moment

Dolphins-Colts game winner will have the inside track for the AFC 6th seed.
As I don’t trust Ravens, Titans, and Bengals. Fins have 2 games left with Buffalo and a soft schedule.

This seasons a nightmare, we better at least make the the playoffs now. If we go 8-8 i’ll have a meltdown

Speaking of the Colts, you could make a case that Quenton Nelson is the NFL rookie of the year although they'd never give it to an OL guy. I've watched some of their games lately and he's killing people. He may already be the best guard in the NFL. Not coincidentally Luck has not been sacked in five games.

Just goes to show you that if you can get a couple of OL studs you're going to be in good shape.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Surprised the Saints are favored by 13 at home against Atlanta. I felt a lot better about the Philly game. Falcons/Saints games are always close no matter how bad either of the teams are.

"Player safety" Goodell really flucked the Bears. They get flexed into the Sunday night game then play in the early Thanksgiving game.

 

[bpo57]

I'll be curious to see how Chase Daniel does today. He was with the Eagles for one season and when I watched him play in pre-season he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with his passes.

 

[KaiserUEO]

Hope everyone slammed the under...

 

[KaiserUEO]

I don’t want to ever hear on again...EV-the Fluck-ER...that Stafford was, is, or will be...a better QB than...Eli EVER AGAIN.

You are all so stupid.

Happy Thanksgiving...

On Sunday Eli gets to face the vaunted secondary that includes Cre'Von LeBlanc, Devante Bausby, Chandon Sullivan and Tre Sullivan. None of these characters were on an NFL roster to start the season. If Eli doesn't throw for a minimum of 300 and 3 TDs then he should seriously consider retirement. No Hicks, Barnett, Mills, Darby or McLeod.

Your DL is damn good though and it hits our week spot perfectly.

Eli would’ve torn up the Bears with all that time today.

Yeah, opposing secondary matters little if you have less than 3 seconds between the snap and a clean, allowable release.

The NYG line would have trouble with the Bears DL.

You guys are confusing last year's Eagles DL with this year's. No comparison. Derek Barnett out for the year. Brandon Graham coming off ankle surgery not the same player. Timmy Jernigan hasn't played a down yet and Fletcher Cox is getting doubled every game because he has no help on the interior. And Chris Long is old and not much left.

Refs missed several penalties committed by the Cowboys tonight. That helmet to helmet was a ridiculous miss.

Ya but wouldn't have mattered game was over.
