(+) Yeah! (+)

Prebear yourself for a beartle of teams that can't bare to win this game.

I expect Al Michaels to just drop his microphone and walk out into Lake Michigan sometime in the middle of the second quarter.

It's actually the rare duel between two bad teams where neither team has an incentive to lose, so it could be competitive!

Carolina doesn't have their 1st round pick, and Chicago wants to get that pick as high as possible since they own it.

Someone please relegate the Bears before they get another prime time game.

Don't you put that evil on us.

Fuck this franchise. Launch it into the sun with the Hornets.

Bears/Panthers, Jets/Raiders, and Broncos/Bills are our primetime games this week.

Somebody should be fired for this. Like who the fuck thought any of these would be good games to put in primetime? The Panthers, Raiders, and Broncos had no business being in primetime and that was known before the season even started. Sure, preseason people thought that the Bears would be good (but in actuality still suck) and that the Jets would have Aaron Rodgers, but against that competition?

And why did some media pinheads say the Broncos were "back" just because of Sean Payton? It's his rebuilding year.

In fairness, every team gets a Thursday game so a few stinkers are inevitable

They should have flexed the Jets/Raiders out for Jaguars/49ers

Actually this is no longer true as of this season.

Cardinals, Colts, Falcons, and Texans have no primetime games this year, although the Colts and Falcons have Europe games.

Bears, Broncos, and Patriots each have four for some reason, and somehow the Raiders have five.

The Bears were the only one of those 4 I even had staying somewhat relevant this year. Pats I had with the #4 pick in the draft.

..Of course I had the soon to be 5-5 Colts with the #2 pick.

The Raiders also might be 5-5 after this week!

Giants at #3 in the draft order at the moment.

They've got a game against the Patriots in a few weeks. The Panthers have a certain amount of incentive to win games since they don't have their own pick.

The only problem is the Cardinals, whom the Giants already beat earlier in the year. I'd say slim odds they win more games than the Giants.

The only problem is they're ass and are about to lose the remainder of the year. In the last 12 months...

Traded McCaffrey
Traded Moore
Let Foreman walk
Let Wilks walk
Hired Reich who got fired midway through last year
Traded next year's pick away to draft Young, while Stroud sets records in Houston
Hell, even PJ Walker is winning games in Cleveland this season

The Carolina Panthers might be the dumbest organization in NFL history

You left out the best part about hiring Reich, who was fired so the owner could hire a TV analyst with zero coaching experience

Also they didn't trade burns for 2 1st rd picks last year, and now they're gonna probably tag him then he'll walk cause they won't pay him.

But no, they def aren't the most inept, they've been to 2 super bowls at least.

Giants should've been more actively trading too. We all know this is heading for picking a QB and a hard reset when they can cut Jones after next year. Saquon for example certainly isn't going to be part of the next Giants generation.

I wouldn't hold that entirely against Reich since it was Jim Irsay making that decision. I think it says more about Irsay than Reich.

It does. It's just funny.

Lucking out into drafting Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck has covered up a lot of Irsay's incompetence.

What have we done to Germany?

The age of Zappe is upon us.

With this punt, the Patriots win is inevitable.

Yikes

zappe fake spike into an int sure is a way to end a game

That throw was worse than the ones Jones was making.

The age of Zappe has ended.

Zappe thought they were offside I think

but

yikes

The Patriots had over 200 yards of offense in the second half, and 3 points.

Zappe hour is indeed over

what a playcall. belichick's still got it

We've shown them the highest of highs and the lowest of lows in consecutive weeks

Then of course they beat the Raiders lmao

I picked that because the Colts were just the better team.

lmao watson

I'm not sure he was!

I kind of wanted to pick the Jags but this felt like "Deebo is back so the 49ers will be too"

So far that seems to be the case.

also Trent Williams.

Jags seem to be similar to the Dolphins - taking care of business against the lesser/mid teams, albeit barely in some cases, and not doing well against the playoff teams.

We have played worse at home for some
reason and with us on a 5 game win streak and 9ers on a 3 game losing streak, both feel ripe for ending lol

49ers were on my short list for spread picks in ladder because I just felt they're bound to break out of this skid but I couldn't pull the trigger.

I just said screw it and picked Dallas to win by 23.

Minnesota got Dobbs essentially for free and he's going to lead them into the playoffs and possibly the division.

Let's just keep making the Jets failures more glaring.

Its only 10-3.

It was 10-0 like 7 minutes into the game though.

Vikings just executed a 2 minute drill Touchdown drive that consisted entirely of uncontested receptions by Hockenson.

How did the Lions trade this guy in division for so little?

Also, the Saints got dominated by the Bears and really don't have much of a resume for a 5 win team. Not surprised to see this and no idea why they were favored by 3.

Watson halftime stats: 6-20, 79 yards, INT (pick 6)

PJ Walker came in to throw an incomplete Hail Mary before halftime but if he were QBing they probably just get the 5 more yards they need for a field goal.

Watson so worth it.

LOL. 49ers recovered a fumble and the 49ers sideline came out to celebrate - but the player was never touched down and went on to return it for a TD but because the sideline was out it wiped out the return. Still 49ers ball though.

Tampa just gave up 39 to Houston and are near stonewalling the Titans.

Also people said this could be time for the Jaguars to make a statement. They were right!

Panthers LEGEND PJ Walker setting up to lead the Browns to upsetting Baltimore.

CJ Stroud might be him lol
