http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-tr...s-flopping-era Solution is simple: if the game needs to be stopped for an injured player, that player can't return for 15 minutes of game clock. You know, for safety.

But, what about those exciting Chargers and Texans offenses! I admit, I couldn't even type that without chuckling to myself.

Sigh, I shoulda believed the hype: the Chip offense heavily relies on the running game, and I shoulda picked up McCoy. Wait, what? How is this not an incomplete pass?

That isn't Manning Face, that is Manning Entire Upper Body. Really interested to see Eagles/Redskins tonight, because right now the entire division looks like they'll be home by the end of wildcard weekend.

I can't believe they went with that controller for the Vita TV (ViTV?). Not only will it not play any Vita games that use the touchscreen, it won't be able to play any PS4 games that require the use of that mousepad either!

The twist ending is that... the Cowboys don't screw up? Brand new world we're in.

Did Claiborne just concuss himself on that guy's ass?

I'm humming circus music to myself whenever the Giants offense is on the field. Man is it gonna suck when they still beat the Packers in Week 11. Edit: Note that the NFC North has both the NFC East and AFC North this year. I'd be shocked if at least one wildcard doesn't come from the NFC...

Honest question, did anyone look good this week? Broncos yes (don't like how often Manning was touched, though), and the 49ers won even when their running game was shut down, but who else?

NFC Least Returns.

Ware is a god. The rest of the Cowboys defense still looks mediocre. Heh, only way Cowboys win is with this sort of luck.

Err, I live in Wisconsin. I'm just too rational to be a fan, I guess. (I picked the 49ers to win, Staley shouldn't have been flagged, and even if the 49ers got 4 extra points there, they still would have won by two! This was no Fail Mary.)

Everyone should have known Palmer to Fitz would result in Fantasy Points. The better question is if it will result in Actual Wins vs. real opponents. (I'm unconvinced so far.)

And doing a shitty ass job covering Boldin.

Also, now that I can look up all the scores, did we fall into a time portal to the 70s? Two 6-7 games? 10-2? 21-2? Have we officially passed some inflection point where Defense wins early in the season, because the modern pass rushers just get up and wreck shit, while offenses actually have...

I'm not getting the game locally (and my net connection sucks atm), but the Bills are winning? What the fiddly fuck?

Reggie can catch passes, and that's all the Lions can (and should) do. Araysar just catching on to MNF opening week doubleheaders that have been going on for years? Shocker. (Checking out Monday's schedule? You've already given up on this Bears game?)

I take it the quotes mean facts you don't like. 2012 Bears Season, vs. Playoff Teams: First Half: 1-1 (Beat Colts, Lost to Packers) Second Half: 1-5 (Beat Vikings, Lost to Texans, 49ers, Seahawks, Vikings, Packers) Yep, a schedule that went from 25% playoff teams to 75% playoff teams...

Bullshit, they had a completely lopsided schedule and anyone should have seen it coming. Of course, the Packers are an injury or two away from giving the division to the Bears and making Araysar think he's sane. Sigh.

I wouldn't bet any money on Falcons/Saints, Bengals/Bears, Dolphins/Browns, or Giants/Cowboys. No surprise, those are the games I am most interested in watching.

Nah, everyone already assumes youropinionsare wrong. Now we know even your "facts" are wrong too.

Broncos need to go for 8 TDs in the game.

This game is going to last until 1AM Eastern even without another weather delay.

ETA until article describing Dream AFC Game as Manning connects with Welker for Five TDs as Broncos defeat Patriots? Manning seems to be getting hurried / hit quite a bit.

Someone should have listened to the other someones that said Manning's never had a set of receivers like this (and that's not even counting Julian Thomas turning into the James Jones of 2013).

Well, the Ravens aren't going to run into a fully operational Manning Star every week. Without knowing just how improved the Steelers/Browns are, I wouldn't rule them out of a Wildcard just yet.

I ownDemaryiusThomas in a couple leagues. I keep getting my hopes crushed.

Everyone's "special" tonight.

Broncos D not looking so hot. Pencil in your Patriots and Texans #1/2 seeds in now?

Did 52 have a seizure there after the play?

A swampy pit will give the advantage to the Ravens! Upset! Didn't it look like that larger green glob will hit the area before the game is over? Getting visions of the MNF double-header where the game ends at 1AM Eastern. Also, in before "You can't tell Ray Lewis this was an accident."

That finale didn't salvage my opinion of the season. I liked how the show flat out said "Yeah, Margus wasn't going to get cut", and then sheepishly suggested 'But he's the closest thing to a personality we have, so here's more coverage of him'. I'm not sure Gio Bernard's name was actually...

Currently, my 360 has Red Ringed and my PS3 has Yellow Lighted. So I've said "Screw It", and am now sitting them both out until Sep '14 or later. Oh no, I won't be able to play the (underwhelming-looking) Knack until next year? How will I survive.

Yeah, there's a very good chance Payton is in "FUCK THE WORLD" mode, and the Saints' goal is 50 points per game. I've had them as a wildcard or better for this year since around this time last year. (Also, who knows how long Rodgers' OL will last.) Note: if the Saints defense is terrible...

Dude, just stop. Say "I forgot about the Giants. My bad." and not this "When I said a, I meant 'one and only one', and not 'at least one', like virtually everyone would assume" nonsense. Seriously man, what is going on with your posts this week. It's like you are stuck somewhere between...

Like hell you are. I'm running my crappy 10th pick down your throat.

For a (rational?) homer's perspective of Bears vs Packers, The historical angle: The Packers and (what would become) The Bears played their first game in 1921.That's almost a fucking century ago!Mygreat-grandfathergot into bar fights with Bears fans when FDR was president. FDR! I can't take...

While I admit the season isn't going as I expected (Mostly because I thought the show going "Okay Heisenberg, you can retire. Oh wait, no you can't." would be a narrative cheat, and so far it has been.), the: Hank and Jesse set trap for Walt. Todd and family set counter-trap there for Jesse...

I honestly don't know what to make of the Steelers. An optimist would say they just had an off year while two other teams in their division had strong years; they did have the best record for a non-playoff team in the AFC. A pessimist would say their issues are the same they've had for...

Oof, I may have to eat some crow. I thought Rex Ryan would last through the year, but I didn't realize until listening to Grantland's NFL Preview Podcast (which I heartily recommend, because again, I love me some Bill Barnwell), that prior to the Jets' Bye Week, in order, they face...
