The heck are you talking about? The Rams didn't punt in the first half, and maybe punted once in the second half? When I turned the game off in disgust and switched to something watchable, they were at 9 out of 11 on third down conversions. That's horrendous.

Well, this I agree with you about. It coincided with the running backs all getting hurt. He can keep the team competitive with an awful defense, but he can't overcome that and a complete lack of a run game.

"Let Russ Cook" does not mean that you let him be the chef while also asking him to serve tables, pour drinks, manage the staff and balance the books. He can't do everything.

2nd half, outside of the first drive, no LA drive was longer then 6 plays and zero points. As mentioned, the defense kept it to a two score game for the last 25 minutes of the second half, and especially key after the two terrible turnovers by Wilson in the 2nd half.

Of course not having Carson hurts. But when he was there they aren't running lot more.

As I said in the last game Wilson has pushed very very hard this season to have the coaching staff create this abrupt change on the play calling mix. He's got his wish and after success for a month or so, opponents have adapted and he's now flailing this past 3 weeks.

Oh man I’m still jumping up and down over that Murray Hail Mary.

Definitely in my top Cardinals games watched.

Of course the Chargers did add a new page to that book today. Let opponent start first drive at your 1 yard line because your punter drops the snap was added week.

Im going to assume your a Seahawks guy so im not expecting a fair assesment then. But I watched that whole game there was multiple times Metcalf was open and even after one play visibly frustrated from lack of targets. Lack of targets isnt always on the reciever.

Mahomes makes plays and Russell seems to force them. Look at his stats the last 3 games. Defence aside you cant win games when your fumbling and throwing bone headed picks all the time. I dont care how naturally talented he is. Last 3 weeks he has the football IQ of a potatoe. So no. Myself nor anyone else here is going to agree with you that Mahomes would of lost the last 3 games with the same roster.

Ha ha....no. 2 more each at most. 5-10-1 is going to win the Division.

Shortly before he went to bed, Bakhtiari signed a four-year contract extension that can be worth up to $105.5 million, a source confirmed to ESPN.

The Packers announced the extension shortly after Sunday's 24-20 win at Lambeau Field. The base value of the deal is $103.5 million with another $2 million in incentives and includes the highest signing bonus -- $30 million, all payable before the end of the 2020 season -- for an offensive lineman, the source said, adding that the total cash flow amount is $37.052 million in the first year and $64.5 million in the first three years.

I can see the Eagles getting to 6 wins.

Still though...what an abomination that a team like that will make the playoffs.

[Senator Clay Davis]

On the not sucking side of things, the Steelers actually have a decent look at 16-0. Only Baltimore at home and Buffalo away look like games that are toss ups, the rest looks pretty doable.

Looking forward to Derrick Henry next week if Campbell/Williams cant play.....
####ing pathetic

They will be resting starters the last game at Cleveland.

[Weitz]

Ravens are frauds.

[Sylvanfan]

The Raiders, Dolphins, and Browns will all make the playoffs. Has to be the 80's whrn that last happened

[flamingred89]

So it's raining in Foxboro eh?

[Sainters7]

Many thinking Drew Brees' rib injury that took him out of the game could be serious, he was looking quite stone-faced in his post-game presser. Wednesday's injury report will be interesting.

It may be Jameis Winston time in New Orleans

Ravens have no O or D line left .

So technically yes. They can’t control the line of scrimmage and for a ball control
Team that is death

That being said , their schedule is easy enough they should get 10 wins , and outside of KC I don’t think anyone would want to face them

Opposing defenses....

[Sylvanfan]

Yeah tonight it's a bit tough to fault Lamar for not throwing his team back in the game. I don't think anyone can throw more than 10 yards in conditions like that last minute.
