Why are these coaches so afraid of calling a timeout? You've got two, dork.

That was completely insane. What in the fucking fuck?

That play ended at 34 seconds and next snap wasn’t until 18 seconds. Crucial crucial error. Would’ve had 3 more plays. Mind-boggling. Simply unbelievable to have 35 coaches and assistants and not be able to not fuck that up.

If the Falcons were my team….I’d need a new tv due to this timeout imbecile coach

It’s fun being a Commanders fan. I’ve always been one. You guys back me up on that right?

Big time drive by Daniels


An actual really good game…of course officiating and dumbassery by coach took some of it.

I was watching the end of regulation on delay but yeah not calling the timeout is stupid. Go from 34 seconds to 17 or whatever Ironman said. 

But, their kicker needs to be about 50 yards or less to have a chance. 56 yards isn’t easy but he was considerably short.

Penix might be the guy for Atlanta though. Maybe they knew what they were doing signing cousins to help the transition and mentor him.

Cousins needs to mentor the coach on clock manage

Ravens won’t be resting anyone and the teams in the top spots are playing teams that will be resting most top players


If you're implying that I think the Browns have a snowball's chance in Hell of knocking off the Rats, let's put it this way, watching DTR flounder around back there makes me long for the days of Charlie Frye and Johnny Manziel. He's gross.

I wasn’t implying that at all. I watched DTR in his final college game (Sun Bowl 2022)….in the first half he was doing well and taunting more than any QB I had ever seen. In the 2nd half Pitt dominated him and he was awful and faked an injury late in the 3rd qtr.

I wouldn’t have drafted him under any circumstance….didn’t matter what his pro days or combine results were.

I think he was implying that the Browns could end up with the 1 pick. Ravens are playing to win while the Pats and Titans will be playing backups. We’ll see how much those two teams can tank to stay in their current spot. I’ve seen where Pats may just rest Maye.

I am dumbfounded that Lions didn't go for two after the 2nd TD on the hook and ladder.

1. Chiefs. Hate to do it but would you be surprised if they won again? Now they get to go weeks without needing to stress anyone.
2a. Eagles - in no particular order. Any of them could be in the superbowl. 
2b. Vikings
2c. Bills
2d. Lions
6. Ravens. Getting right heading into the post-season
7. Packers. Close loss to maybe the second best team in the league. 
8. Commanders. Going to be a very scary matchup for someone in the playoffs. 
9. Chargers. Looking forward to seeing what theyll do in the post-season.
10. Buccaneers. Best NFC team not in the North or the Eagles. 
-Drop off-
11. Steelers. I think all those reservations people had are showing up now.
12. Rams. Not really too scary right now.
13. Texans. Shouldn't be in the playoffs IMO. No one from this crap division should.
14. Bengals. Too little too late?
15. Broncos. Won't be pretty in the playoffs against Buffalo.
16. Dolphins. Imagine Denver and Cincinnati lost and they made the playoffs? Gross.
17. Falcons. Season is over right? I dont even know.
18.  
Seahawks. Same as Falcons. 
19. Cowboys. Who cares. 
20. 49ers. Of all the bad teams, they are the most talented. 
21. Colts. I legit wanted to make them last.
22. Cardinals. 
23. Saints.
24. Jets
25. Jaguars
26. Panthers
27. Raiders
28. Giants
29. Bears
30. Patriots 
31. Browns
32. Titans

Organize spots 22-32 however you'd like.

The most we’ve agreed top to bottom

I don’t think the Bengals game has anything to do with the Dolphins making the playoffs.

I still have Bills over Chiefs

So…games on Saturday, help me out here.

Ravens play Browns and then after that game ends….Bengals play the Steelers

Ravens need to win to secure the 3 seed and division….Browns might be more interested in losing. Steelers are already in but could potentially be the division winner I stead of the 5 or 6 seed. Bengals have to win.

I can see advantages for Pittsburgh and Cincy with this set up. If Ravens win, be hard for Steelers to care quite as much UNLESS they really care about whether they will play at Baltimore or at Houston (likely same result)….I feel a slight benefit to Cincy.

Dolphins played on Saturday they could nullify the importance of Bengals winning. 

I guess these are the best options for a division where both games have some importance but I do like when every game is at the same time but this way yields more $$$$

Could’ve went Falcons Vs Panthers and then Bucs Vs Saints on Saturday

As a Steelers fan, I'd much rather they play Houston than Baltimore. Stroud's regressed a lot this year, it seems. Keep Mixon from running wild and they should win. Probably in their usual "make field goals out of sure-fire touchdowns so the game is super-close" way, but still a win. Baltimore on the road would be tougher.

Agree completely….but not sure the Steelers do, but should

Mahomes being left off the pro bowl roster - which I agree with - will unfortunately just make them more eager to win the superbowl.
