Leave it to Kliff Kingsbury to see both starting corners get knocked out in an already bad Tampa secondary and start calling a steady diet of screens and draws.

The broadcast team just reported that they would announce the times for next week's games before this game ends.

How is Dan Quinn an NFL head coach? He has the option of kicking off at the 50, where a pooch kick will pin them deep, or a squib will put them at the 20. Instead, he says "give me a 26-yard extra point instead of a 33-yard extra point."

They had the name Red Hogs there for the taking and chose Commanders instead. Unfortunate shortenings is what they deserve.

I agree. If I was a betting man, I think Chiefs/Texans is a 4pm game and Bills/Ravens is an 8pm game. If the Commies win, it would put Lions/Commies on Saturday at 8pm (Chiefs/Texans 4pm Saturday, Eagles/Rams-Vikings 4pm Sunday, Ravens/Bills 8pm Sunday). If the Bucs win, Lions/Rams is an 8pm Sunday game, bumping Ravens/Bills to 8pm Saturday and Chiefs/Texans to 4pm Sunday, Eagles/Bucs to 4pm Saturday... Lions/Vikings I'm not so sure. That might get 4pm Sunday, with Eagles/Bucs taking 8pm Sunday. on edit, I'm not so sure about Lions/Commies either. It's probably an 8pm game, but they might like Eagles/Rams more.

I believe that they put the Monday Night wildcard winner in the Sunday Night divisional round game, so I think this is correct.

I'll root for the Commies. I'd prefer to play them next week at this point.

If they don't, they'll lose. Whether it's the Bucs, Rams, or Vikings, they need to play better on offense if they expect to advance. Jalen Hurts is a liability at QB.

Slay and Dean have both gone out with injury in the first half for the Eagles.

Packers went 12 rounds with the Lions, beat the Seahawks by three scores, demolished the Saints, then curled up into a ball and died.

Might be nice for the Packers or Commies could win, so we have the full week to prepare. The guys are back in Allen Park tomorrow, but won’t know their opponent until Tuesday if the Eagles and Bucs win.

Cam Sutton gets burned on the opening defensive drive for the Steelers.

Supported by the record this year too. NFC went 47-33 against the AFC.

The AFC may have the more flashy QBs, but the NFC is a deeper conference.

Bad offense, bad defense, and bad special teams. This game has it all.

The Chargers defense has looked very good, but it's hard to tell if that's just because Houston's offense is so bad. This is bad football for playoff football.

The bright side of this is that the next generation of sports historians will have no question about whether the 2023 Michigan team would have beaten the 2024 Ohio State team.

“Weighing options” = “please someone else make me an offer”

Texas finally shows up on offense and their defense immediately gives up 75 yards on a screen play.

If Ohio State wins the National Championship, I can’t decide if I’ll get the Ohio Staters in my life a “University of Michigan back-to-back National Championship” apparel, or “Ohio State University 2024 4th Place in Big Ten” apparel. The former will piss them off more, but I think the latter is funnier.

Career, meet toilet bowl. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy, said no one ever.

I assumed the Lions wouldn’t get one until 2026. They’re overdue to lose a home game to a stupid international game that neither the players nor 99.9% of the fans want.

There’s an element to the Dan Campbell experience that only works in a few select locations. Detroit, Pittsburgh, Buffalo… maybe Cincinnati or Cleveland… The “we are going to take on the identity of this city” piece to his intro press conference is real. He did. Meanwhile Mike McDaniel took on the identity of the city of Miami and it appears to have led to a Charmin soft football team and a cocaine addiction. That’s not to say Campbell wouldn’t have success in Miami, but I don’t think he would be the cult hero that he is here.

The Saints should have hired him instead of Dennis Allen. He should drag it out and get as many millions as he can from them this time around. I think they know how bad it is though after they treated the salary cap like monopoly money for a decade. He'll have a long leash.

Like the Packers, for me at least, it isn’t what they’ve done, it’s the fear of what they could do in any single game.
