I guess JJ Watt can get away with hitting Brady, no one else can.

Mcsorley has a strong arm. He overthrew Hopkins by about 20 feet.

Wow, great call.

Neither team is playing very well. Dolphins got away with PI, but that was a ball that probably shouldn't have been thrown.

Yesterday was exceptional though. At 8 degrees, the ground is rock hard regardless. The Bears were also complaining about the field conditions in Chicago, and it is grass.

Packers playing a terrible half, but fortunately for them, the Dolphins are making enough mistakes to keep it close 20-13 at the half.

Green Bay is making some really dumb decisions today. Go for it on 4th and 2 and throw it 30 yards. Of course, they didn't make it. Then on the next series, they fake a punt and don't make it, giving the Dolphins the ball at the 20 yard line. They are about to be down 24-10. The Dolphins bailed them out, so 20-10.

The Bucs have been pretty horrific this december. I think this one is 50/50.

We may need to go back, I don't really know, but I can tell you my grass front yard this morning was nearly as hard as my concrete driveway due to the 12 degree temperature.

With the Cowboys and playoffs, never say never.

Maybe, but using multiple backs and receivers makes a team so much harder to defend.

I honestly think that CMC leaving improved our offense. He was just to much of a crutch for our coaches and qb's to lean on, and I fear that even with Rhule leaving, we would have tried to feed him too much. I am wondering if SF is falling into that trip. In the last game, CMC had 23 carries and 8 targets. I guess it was in part due to injury, but even so, that is a lot.

I agree. He has really only had one game where he kicked with the game on the line, and he failed. And his kickoffs aren't great.

They are not protecting the players. They are protecting the qb. You can still hit the non qb's under most circumstances. They are more concerned about making the games better than keeping the players safe.

I hope he changes/turns his life around, tries to become a good person. But regarding success in the league, I agree. And while they wouldn't admit it, I think the commissioner and the others that run the league feel the same way. They don't want to hand the trophy to Deshaun.

They need to change the roughing rule.

In other news, the Browns paid a ton of money for a criminal qb, who completed less than 50% of his passes and had a qb rating of 49 today. I am so, so glad that Watson didn't come here.

Right now, we have a decent chance of making the playoffs. Probably 2 in 5. Tampa is worse than we are. Of course, its still Brady, and they may win next week, but I certainly wouldn't say its deluded to think we have a shot. A good shot.

The receivers as a group have played very well today.

They stopped the Jets. The Vikings were so far behind they gave up on the run. The Jaguars had a high average ypc, but once again were so far behind they gave up on the run. The Bills lit them up, not that many runs, but a high ypc. Their run defense hasn't been that great, teams just didn't run the ball against them as much. Of course, I am not denigrating our performance today. We have been dominant above and beyond any other team they have faced this year. At least until the last few series.

In fairness, its been a long time since we blew a lead like this. 2016 I think. Of course, its been a long time since we had a lead like this.

It's not really an enigma. The Steelers have a top five run defense, Seattle and Detroit have a bottom five run defense.

I would have challenged the spot, but didn't matter.

No greater example of what a bad coach Rhule was than the play of Foreman and Marshall.

Well, I was wrong.
