Well duh.

Healthy person joins zombies = 1 new zombie

Zombie joins healthy people = lots of new zombies

Don't let the Jag virus touch your team.

oh sh*t Leftwich is OC it's too late

Eventually the rot will destroy your team. You might not win enough Super Bowls to reach full dynasty status.

Psha, Tampa just cemented Brad's legacy as the GOAT. He did what Peyton did by winning a ring with a new team, but he actually helped the team win that Bowl.

They may not end up a dynasty, but they're a major note in crowning Brady.

Edit: Sorry, Guru.

The Bucs had been utterly forgettable and bad for a dozen or so years, and won about 5.5 games/year. The franchise was embarrassing, mediocre, and completely irrelevant, and he won a ring in year one. Sure, the roster was stacked, but the major components of the roster had been there for all those crappy years. Yeah, that's going to be part of his legend. I mean, the only thing that could make it better is if he went to Minnesota and won the Vikings a title, and, uh, I don't think Gisele feels like facing Minnesota winters.

Jax actually made a FG?

Finger totally moved. He touched that punt. WTF is replay for anyway

NFL replay been watching too many Braves games on how not to run replay.

Oh great, now they gotta let Urban on the plane.

God damn it. So much for dumping Urban over the bye.

Poor *Legion*

Darnold has 8 seconds to throw in the first play from scrimmage. Throws it to Minn instead

Le'Veon bell was so uncovered on that running play, it looked like he wasn't sure whether he was supposed to run it into the end zone after 3 years of RB purgatory.

Think he considered a Lamar flip but then just jumped instead.

In words that would normally not make sense to say, my deepest sympathies to Jaguars fans for getting their first win of the year.

How else is he going to get to Baton Rouge?

34-6. Get Lamar out of the game please. Halfway through the 4th, it's over. He should not be on this drive.

Urbs needed a pink pullover in that pic.

Jacksonville Jaguars with Jesus: 1-5

300-yard passer (only 1st round QB to reach that so far - and it's his second time). No INTs. 3rd straight game with passer rating over 90.

Jaguar Jesus is ascending.

Man, the Vikings and missed FGs...

Overtime in Charlotte.

At the end of regulation, Darnold is 17/41 for 207 yards, one pick, one INT, and one fumble. Guys, I'm starting to think Adam Gase might not have been the problem here.

The weird thing is, HEY DARNOLD wasn't awful today. Just bad.

His receivers dropped a bunch (six, I think) of catchable balls. (The worst: Robby Anderson -- 11 yards on 11 targets. Woof.)

And a lot of those incompletions were throwaways because Darnold was under pressure and/or no one was open (and/or or he didn't see the open guy; same thing in Darnold World).

On the last drive, Darnold had two tremendous throws -- a 40-yard dart to the TE on 4th and 10 from the Panthers' 4, and a 30-some-yard fade to DJ Moore on a later 4th down.

That said, Darnold did throw a pick on his first pass, and later he called time out on two consecutive plays. WHOOPS.

First, I didn’t think the Ravens would win.

Second, I didn’t think if they did it would be because of the defense and running game.

Damn, this Cowboys-Patriots game is bonkers.

Edit: I might have to take back most of my McCorkle hate. Not all of it, mind you, but a good bit of it.

Overtime.

Every week this season at least one

All my f*cking life, I still own State Farm Insurance.

TIL from watching the Sunday night game by, ah, alternate means: Australia's version of Burger King is called Hungry Jack's, the big Mexican food chain is called Zambrero (and their commercials stink) and UFC's Fight Night airs at 7 a.m. Sunday.

What a word we live in, huh.

If the NFL really wants British fans, they have to send better teams to play in London than that. That was like watching two blind boxers on a greasy floor.

Yeah watching baseball playoffs. Hope the seachickens are getting rolled though
