    Skins game should be basically over, but not recovering a fumble on their 5 and fumbling the ensuing punt return almost let Buffalo back in it.

    They should sign Cousins at this point. I'm a believer.

    Decent start by the Skins. If D can make some adjustments to contain Taylor a little more, I like our chances.

    Jordan Reed is just destroying defenses. Long as they don't put him in to block ever, it's fine.

    I thought even when she was lowering the shield she was basically convinced they had no chance, so she felt like they were going to get crushed anyways even if they could launch an attack.

    Wish I was going. I have a feeling it'll be a good/weird game that stays close, but I have a feeling we're going to squeeze out a win.

    I'm not saying they were a great team by any stretch. But even when you list those losses, the worst of the bunch was Week 2 @Denver, when D. Thomas basically introduced himself to the league. Aside from that you have 2 divisional losses and then every other loss is to a team that went .500 or...

    Question is how "shit" were those teams really though? When you look at the schedules both the 2010 Seahawks and last year's Panthers played, the divisions in the opposing conference and the one in their conference (not their own) were both extremely tough. 2010 Seahawks had to play the AFC...

    Brandon Marshall killed it in the post game interview. Feel like Jets are going to be this year's 10 win team that doesn't get into the playoffs.

    Conflicted. Wanted Dallas to get a win or two to make their draft position worse. Still always nice for them to lose a tight finish though.

    It's going to be fantastic if we can rest our starters in Week 17 and let Dallas finish out their miraculous 7-9 season to knock themselves out of a top 10 draft pick

    Don't get people disliking Solo carrying the movie. Though Ford was great falling into the old role. Some of Finn's comedy came off very forced, but with Han it was all good. Only emotion you felt from Han/Leia reunion was all Ford too.

    Likely not lightsabers, but with your cudgels, sure. The fuck does Anakin getting his shit pushed in by Dooku have to do with this? Dooku was clearly much higher power level than Kylo is. Also how does Obi Wan get rekt by Maul 1v1? He slashes his dual saber in half, and the only real offense...

    On the originals, ROTJ always has the feels factor and being the last film that tied up the trilogy that put it right up there with Empire for me, but once I got old enough it was easy to appreciate Empire as the better movie. Honestly as much as I love ROTJ, all the Ewok shit and tromping...

    Yeah I thought all of the new characters (including Poe with your 3) did great jobs. Kind of bodes well. Also not that this is a spoiler or anything, but man Carrie Fisher hasn't aged well. Seemed like she had a shit ton of makeup done to even look semi normal.

    8.5/10 for me. Definitely a lot of throwback but I agree it FELT like Star Wars. New characters were all much better than I was expecting. I understand people's problems with the pacing, but just felt like a minor issue to me personally.

    He does have some weapons down there. Teams like Jax, Oakland, and Minnesota all show how you help your young QB develop and they're not at all the laughing stocks they have been in recent years. Just shows how badly Cleveland has mishandled JFF, although he gets a fair share of the blame as well.

    Another bullshit call against Tom Wilson. Literally just goes for a shoulder to shoulder bump off the puck, guy gets whiplash from being short and having his head down like an idiot, match penalty. Almost let Ottawa back into a game that they were being completely shut down in.

    It's kind of nuts how fast and hard Girardi has fallen. I feel for the guy but nice to see the Rangers in a little bit of disarray. Pens too. Meanwhile the team that's really been on a tear is the Islanders. Just shooting up the Eastern Conference.

    Brady's age and career factor in too. Guy has already made a ton of money, will likely go on to make a lot more. At this point with 6 SB trips and 4 wins, it's all about legacy.

    Always feels good bagging up a ton of points early in the year. Holtby's going full Lundqvist mode of late though, and I mean that as both the compliment to him and a little bit of the "so you going to help him out a little more?" to the rest of the team.

    Damnit Sutekh, it was a REALLY bad time to miss it though. Just annoyed Dolphins had a lead multiple times in this game and somehow just fucking forgot to cover OBJ over the top to lose.
