Cause I want to see a big time matchup with huge playoff implications to be played in the best conditions possible. Short week just increases the chances it's a lackluster game. And it's TNF, we all don't care about it anyway lol.

So remember a couple of years back when Rubecube was in a tizzy about the Bills only offering fans $20 an hour to show up and help clear the snow out of the seating area's in the stadium after a pretty huge snow fall.

The Bengals have one upped that...and decided eff that...you can sit in snow.

Yeah, Burrow should either demand a trade...or just do the Andrew Luck. JaMarr Chase can play there forever though.

I doubt it will be lackluster given what's on the line for both teams. I like watching games on TNF. I just wish the league could balance schedules that more teams play them coming out of their bye week.

I imagine the Bengals ownership's one of the big names pushing to end the NFLPA scorecards. Those cheap jerks are always bottom of the barrel

Burrow should have just played two seasons under the franchise tag and left that organization.

Dolphins are now all about "Win with Quinn" as Tua is benched for Ewers. Should be interesting to see how Tua does on the Steelers next year though.

My money would be on Kyler, but yeah, Tua is a good shout too.

Don’t bet on the Rams this weekend. Puka's out here saying NFL refs are the worst and make calls just to get on TV. I'm sure they won't get at least a week of the Wideman treatment

But they are playing the Seahawks, and as Corsi likes to remind us the NFL is rigged against the Seahawks. Bet the tie???

ESPN skipped over the racist/anti-semetic part

Puka told Adin Ross that he'd do a "covetous jew" celebration on his next TD score

If there was any doubt about how dim Nacua is, blabbing random thoughts to a couple streamers pretty much says it all.

I have literally never said that the NFL is rigged against the Seahawks.*

*Note: the NFL might previously have been rigged against the Seahawks on the specific occasion of Super Bowl XL.

And his brother arrested for stealing a Laker's rookie SUV. Nice family.

That is quite a quick heel turn Nacua has pulled off.

Didn't realize Puka Nacua was Samoan for Antonio Brown, but hey learn something new every day.

The NFL is about to draw a stark contrast between itself and the NBA by not suspending him.

There's just something about the mental makeup of some of these star WR's. Maybe the position requires a level of selfishness to gain that extra edge.

Seemed like that vibe moved to CB after the 2000s (Pac-Man Jones, Aqib Talib, Marshon Lattimore in his prime, etc). But I see WRs are trying to wrestle their natural biggest divas on the field rep back to where it belongs.
