Tennessee Titans at Jacksonville Jaguars

If there was ever an example of why to do away with Thursday night games, it's here.

I would imagine people that bet on a Titans/Jags Thursday night game outside the half dozen locals in week 15 is a special type of gambler.

*lightsabre noises*

Jordan Todman broke free for a 62-yard TD run, giving the Jags a two-score lead in a clash of 2-12 teams

^this guy had a walk off sack worth $600k

Thats fucking great. good for that dude

this is going very well

incredible

Wow, kaepernick

helluva drive, helluva comeback. those 4th downs.

wow I misread this headline:

Sources: QB Rivers playing with bulging disk

gotta say it's been nice watching the 9'ers crash n' burn like this

:(

this gonna be one of those games where the patriots are up 14-0 after five mins

ha or not

wow no one really fucks w this bord anymore huh, next season maybe go with a rolling thread instead of the weekly threads, powerful format imo

ha gino smith is bad

is the jets D good

jets D is good up front in particular. and pats lost a starting guard in warm ups, look a bit disorganized. jets being p aggressive tho, have to think NE will figure out how to take advantage before long

hahahaha. that line judge was so pumped to flag gronk for his spike and it got overturned

"we talk abt pass catching radius" do we

ted bridgewater is good i think

feels like he has quietly arrived in recent weeks. vikes could turn up to next season a good team

i noticed even 5 or 6 wks back, he was v calm in his drop and scanning the field seemed like a good sign at the time imo

jets special teams are weak like clock radio speakers

geno on fire on that td drive tho. completing passes even when NE had the right coverage

feeling an int this drive

incredibly lame play call on 3rd and 7 in the redzone with the offense clicking. amazing.

Browns run a QB SWEEP with Manziel as part of their 2 minute offense. He gets hurt.

my god what is happening itg

jets p much dominated the pats wk 7 except for not actually winning so its p obv they are just better than ne imo

hi guys i basically never watch nfl anymore because of my dumb job teaching children. someone tell me that there is a team better than the pats this year so i can enjoy the playoffs if at all possible.

just the jets

UGH ARE YOU SERIOUS

feel like ripping a guys helmet off shd somehow be a penalty?

horseshoe sorry! pats r best

wait lol i just checked the jets record.

you're only as good as your last/current game

yeah it is a mystery jets are much worse than most teams, only superior 2 patritos

that is the only thing rex has been able to achieve as head coach, make his team turn up vs pats

grudging respect

pats fixin to blow their title chances today

jets are going to lose this game for refusing to throw at the endzone

lol do not lateral

chanandler jones

big first down

patriots r ahead!

killing him shd be legal

loool otm

really want the falcons and panthers to tie next week

what wld happen

nfc south would be decommissioned

tough but fair

http://deadspin.com/lions-center-dominic-raiola-stomps-on-bears-linemans-an-1673840062

the Schwartz era lives on. fuck this team IMO

someone really needs to take raiola out one of these days

wilson2wilson again. cards making this too easy at key moments

Today was the first time I'd had Redzone on in maybe 4 or 5 weeks. Turns out I didn't really miss it.

not a great slate of games this week tbf

that run though, my lord

aw fuck off seattle. coming good in time for the playoffs. which of the nfc teams is going to be these assholes because they are a horrible match up for den/ne and i really don't them to win again

*beat

they're going to wreck the nfc if they play like this

Cowboys tho...

Legit playoff aspirations:

NFC - Seattle, Green Bay & Dallas.
AFC - NE then a step down to Pittsburgh and Denver.

Darkhorse:
NFC - Detroit
AFC - San Diego

denver prob the best team, only prob they prob have to play in foxbroro

By dark horse is that they get a win in round one, don't see either going to Superbowl.

I don't trust the Cowboys either but they are legit up front on both offensive and defensive line.

patriots offense been pretty garbage of late too

den, ne, gb, se - how i break it down to an extent

Dallas' lines have been pushing around some people. Dallas has also cut down on the dumb shit. I still expect them to play dumb, but you got to give the Jerrayh the benefit of the doubt, he's got some good players this year.

NFC/AFC championship games should be good matchups. I think NE definitely has an advantage at home, so I think it would take a club playing a heck of a game up there to win.

agree

600 yards of offense.

SEA

600000000000000000

crazy that Baltimore is 3rd in their division despite a +97 point differential

also crazy that Detroit is in 1st place in the NFC North despite scoring the fewest points in the division. their defense is 2nd best in the league, next to (puke) Seattle

Seattle looked good but it should be noted that lindley is clearly not an nfl quarterback

p sure he wasnt playing defense

Need to get a gif of that lynch run

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zolgMZ0SWkg

denver prob the best team, only prob they prob have to play in foxbroro

other prob is that peyton can't really throw recently

that's a thing for sure. watch them run for 200y on cincy tonight tho.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Bears quarterback Jay Cutler will start Chicago's season finale against the Vikings after Jimmy Clausen experienced delayed symptoms of a concussion Sunday evening and will not play this weekend, the team announced on Monday.

"Jay gives us the best chance to win," coach Marc Trestman said. "Jay is our best option."

Clausen was ruled out after an examination on Monday morning.

someone really needs to take raiola out one of these days

On or off the field. I agree. He needs to be eliminated with extreme prejudice.

even tho cincy playing well the more this game becomes about trading scores the more it will favour denver. that turnover is especially unfortunate.

http://cbssports.com/images/blogs/jffscream.jpg

That is not a good picture. I bet ESPN will not shut up about Manziel all off season. Still you have to say that was a pretty authoritative put down upon Manziel. Terrible first start and then you get knocked out early in the next game.

different subject --

Does Washington have much hope of winning against Dallas next week?

broncos special teams are HORRIBLE

it has been said before but andy dalton is so gdamn frustrating

wow what is that penalty

cb's head jerked down kinda weird so they assumed a facemask

eh that replay was pretty clear that he got it

lol peyton

o shit

rip broncos

i thought denver missing the bye might be a real thing but cincy has to win at pittsburgh and denver has to lose at home to oakland, so...

they'll get the bye but i don't think it's crazy to imagine some team taking them out at home given how they're playing.

broncos vs steelers would be a p interesting matchup right now
