    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I'm not sure really. Cousins has played very well against Philly in the past. Also our D suddenly had a good game against Baltimore. It'll come down to if our D can do anything to slow down Wentz and if our offense can handle your D. I'd say you guys should be a slight favorite, but who...

    I mean Romo seems to look for Dez more. Dez's numbers away from Romo are pretty pedestrian. He's been hurt though, so we'll have to see him play more with Dak to see if that holds true.

    NHL 2016-17 Season

    Regular season is just for Kuznetsov to get going again and to figure out the 3rd line. Also to see if guys like Orlov/Schmidt can give us more in the playoffs from the back end. Really I could care less where we finish, just get into the playoffs. Nothing the Caps do in the regular season is...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I think Morris can be solid in a backup role. I feel bad for him because we ran him so hard on a cheap, cheap 6th round deal and he never really got to have even one larger payday. Not that he's hurting I'm sure, but still. I hope he has a decent career as as a solid backup at least. I don't...

    Wouldn't be surprised if Dallas had more total TD's already this year than last. I think the improved QB play has been the biggest reason for more chances to score, personally. Zeke helps, but when you're talking about looking for a guy who could do 80% production cheaply as a FA pickup or mid...

    He's definitely a 3 down back. Picks up the blitz just fine. Like Famm said, it's just a value thing. Is it worth it taking one that high when you could get 80% of the production for much cheaper in the middle rounds and use your high 1st on a different position (DLine, etc)? It might be for...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    That's about right Famm. Even if they'd traded down and taken him middle of the 1st round (although no guarantee he would have fallen that far at all) you would have heard a lot less about it. RB's that high just seem like a bad investment b/c even the great ones only last through a couple of...

    Unless they were playing a division opponent this year. He didn't manage to do it against the Giants or the Skins (with 2 fumbles and got benched). But he'll get another chance at each.

    You're welcome, the path to the Super Bowl victory that is now inevitable shines before you.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I just don't think the Ravens are that much better than us (if at all) to where they should easily beat us. Also Cowboys put it to the Bengals today. When they do it to the Bears and 49ers it's perfectly okay to wonder if it's for real...now it's starting to get to the point where maybe Romo...

    I'm a Redskins fan. Pretty sure I'd be fine and it would be just more of the same from the last 24 years. But the Super Chargers are entertaining as hell right now.

    I'm nodding sadly...although Kirk has 3 wins in a row while Eli won't even have 3 wins after tonight unless something drastic changes in this game.

    The universe was slowly pulling itself apart all week with a Jeff Fisher team 2 games above .500...but things are calming down again.

    Fillipe Rios so pissed. Never seen a team be so dominant in 1st half and so fucking terrible in 2nd halves. It's unreal.

    Well yeah, I'm rooting for Giants to lose, but they'd be only team below .500 in the division.

    Other than Philly blowing it earlier, what's up with the NFC Beast too?

    Fun game. Sloppy as fuck by both teams, wind played some havoc with kicking game and the decisions regarding the kicking game I think. Ravens completely telegraphed that fake FG when the holder lined up on the wrong side of Justin Tucker. Cousins still tries to gives games away like 4 times...

    Really? You think if Dak doesn't continue to improve (possible) they just don't put Romo back in?

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    The butthurt is real. It's okay bros, Zeke did well the last two games we can forget about the Giants shutting him down or fumbling twice against us. My point actually was though, that writing us off and Dallas as the only potential challenger is silly. Of course the game still counts, but...

    I mean, the Skins did win 2 in a row, and we should have beaten Dallas other than Cousins playing like shit. I still would have to rank us below the Eagles though b/c their defense is so superior to ours. Our offense will keep us in games though when Cousins isn't playing terribly, at least.

    You all are forgetting...if the Skins go into Baltimore and beat the Ravens on Sunday, the rest of the season actually IS a formality. Ravens will be the Super Bowl champs if that happens. It is known.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Stills and real time are different so it is hard to tell. I do think the ball was thrown horrible and only real reason it ended up a pick. Not sure it's a walk in TD if he's really that close in coverage. Inside position makes me think it's more likely a long completion and brought down...

    Um, maybe I'm reading this wrong and you're responding to a different thread of discussion, but I have to ask....are you referring to Dak as a ginger?

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    He may not have had 2 steps like whoever claimed, but he's got inside position pretty clearly in the 2nd to last pic. I know Cowboys fans will swear Claiborne was just waiting to turn on the jets, but if the ball is thrown right, it's probably a long completion. Likely tackled right away (with...

    Division games will play a big part in their final record. Their easy games outside the division are pretty much done (Lions in the ballpark for "easy game" though, potentially) with having already played Browns and Bears. But if they beat the division, 10 wins could be in the cards.

    After the Lions just lost to Hoyer and the Bears? Jim Bob Cooter better have a redemption game to have any hope.

    OBJ 'not having fun anymore' playing football Beckham is Trump, clearly. Cathan I might have to go back and say Norman won the overall battle with OBJ (although the in game battle was even).

    Shhhh. Although really games against each other don't do anything to help the winning %. Also you forgot Chicago.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Put me down in this category too. If they had AP healthy, I'm not sure it's close. They way they're using Bradford is pretty much perfect. He's not having to do too much, and he's making solid throws when needed. When the Vikings can put up 100 yards rushing like they did tonight coupled...

    That shit was so bad. Supposedly the claim was she saw a Redskin with possession of the ball at the bottom of the pile and called it for the Skins but Johnson then grabbed the ball and showed that he had it. But if you can find anything close to that on the video good luck. Unreal fuck up...

    It's weird my Ravens fan buddy and I talked about it constantly, going to Dwill from Bell is about as little a drop off as you could expect (compared to any other potential backup)...then you remember everything that Bell can do. It's weird, sometimes I'd prefer Dwill's running style, but if...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Not quite sure I buy. Bell alone, would change the game, and Ben had a bad day throwing the ball independent of what the Eagles were doing. Eagles still confirmed for real, but I'm not even convinced if they played the Steelers 10 times they win 5. Every team has bad days.

    I feel like Niners would do better with Kaeperbro in. As much as they pimp up Gabbert he just looks really bad on some plays.
