Just as long as it's not today.

Been at a wedding all afternoon. Did SEA show up at all or...?

They were there for a couple drives. Then the center stepped on Russell's foot for a safety and they held on Devin Hester's 70 yard punt return and it was gg.

I don't really want B.O. to get a second undeserved superbowl ring, but it would be hilarious if he beat Brady again.

But I really don't want that.

Coaches have gotta stop kicking field goals instead of going for it on 4th down in the red zone. Congrats, you're now down 14-6. Woo. Hoo. Go for it!

I am truly shocked how close this is. Props to the Houston D.

I agree almost 100% with this.

When you're the road team and major underdog, you need to convert red zone trips into touchdowns.

This time right here for the Pats before half, that I would have still kicked.

Yeah, Pats def should've kicked cause you aren't getting that ball back. Seahawks kept settling, Texans settled. Guess who isn't going to win the game?

The Texans would be killing the Patriots if they had a decent QB.

Can you imagine if they had broken the bank on the one they have?

Exactly. Houston hasn't gotten into the NE red zone since 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter. They needed to be aggressive with the shots they had and needed to convert them to have any chance at taking this game. Kicking short FGs ensured there never was a chance.

$72 million. $37 million guaranteed.

And they really ought to be playing Tom Savage instead at this point.

I forgot to post my favorite thing from playing MUT. It's playoff prediction time!

On top of picking each of the winners, you also have to play a True or False card on each of these events. I bolded my selections.

From today (I didn't do well):

Falcons over Seahawks - 1000 coins
Matt Ryan Throws 2+ TDs - True = 750 False = 1000
Doug Baldwin scores 1+ TD - True = 1000 False = 750
Julio Jones 100+ Receiving Yards = True = 1000 False = 1000

Patriots over Texans - 1000 coins
Tom Brady Throws 3+ TDs - True = 1000 False = 1000
LaGarrette Blount Scores 1+TD - True = 750 False = 1250
Deandre Hopkins has 5+ Receptions True = 750 False = 1000

For tomorrow:

Chiefs over Steelers - 1250 coins
Alex Smith has 20+ Completions True = 1000 False = 750
Ben Roethlisberger Throws for 250+ Yards True = 1000 False = 750
Travis Kelce 80+ Receiving Yards True = 1000 False = 1000

Cowboys over Packers - 1500 coins
Dak Prescott Throws 1+ TDs and has 0 INTs - True = 2000 False = 2000
Ezekiel Elliot Has 125+ Yards From Scrimmage - True = 2000 False = 2000
Davonte Adams has 1+TDs - True = 2000 False = 2000

How do you pick against Fresno State star Davante Adams scoring?

Raiders to file papers for Las Vegas relocation.

Now that the other LA shoe dropped, it's happening.

Works for me. The 49ers offense wasn't poorly coached, it was poorly manned. I wasn't in a great hurry to get rid of Chip. But offensive coordinator is probably a better fit for him than head coach.

I could see that if Chip Kelly appeared at all to be the kind of guy who would be happy as an offensive coordinator, but he seems like a guy who really wants to run it all. He's a college head coach, not a pro coach or coordinator. It's like Saban; some people just do better when they can play dictator of their little football world.

For the record, I agree with your impression. My assumption has been that he would go take over a college program.

But if he decided he wants to stay in the NFL and took OC interviews, I'd take him.

That wasn't Jared Cook, Aikman.

Hard to tell which part of Green Bay is the most dominant: offense, defense, or knowledge of the more obscure sections of the rule book.

Man. Rodgers is the ice man!

How in the hell don't you call someone wripping a jersey down over a shoulder pad.

oh sh*t it's peak aaron rodgers lock up your cornerbacks

So are we going to get a competitive game at all in these playoffs?

This comeback is going to hurt.
