Why did the Falcons not accept that penalty?

[puffnstuff]

How did Ginn hold on to the ball there?

Yeah, 3 and 11 or 4 and 1. I would have pushed them back.

And now an Int. in the endzone

[bubbsy]

Wow

[GirlySports]

Jones is incredible

[rubecube]

That's a bad decision by Brees when all you need is 3 points.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Falcons almost Falcons' it.

[GirlySports]

wooooooow, the game is over

[corporatejay]

Payton needs to be more disciplined than that

How can the ref throw an unsportsmanlike flag for that?

[puffnstuff]

and the flag on NO coach ends the game...

And then Payton has a meltdown and gives the game to Atlanta.

Refs need to be more aware though, they know that NO will call a timeout after 2nd down, can't let 5-6 seconds tick off.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Pretty undisciplined game overall, lots of costly mistakes. But Atlanta is in good shape now with having the tiebreaker over all the 6 loss teams. Just need to get to 10 wins.

For the second straight year, a Cleveland Browns fan is arranging a parade for fans should the team finish the season winless.

Chris McNeil, who says he has had Browns season tickets in his family for at least 30 years, raised his required goal of $10,000 this week, when headache medication brand Excedrin contributed the final $7,683.

I was screaming too at the tv for the time out, of course Payton wants one there. Between the insane amount of injuries and all the over-reffing that game was infuriating. Was there at the end, can't make that throw. Still proud of how they played through the hospital ward and whistles, would've been a gutty W. Praying Kamara is ok.

See you in 2 weeks, Falcons. Christmas Eve in the Dome, there will be blood (and much yelling and cursing around my extended family while sucking down rum & egg nogg)

One of the largest football survivor pools was shut down this week after federal agents seized documentation and the money the pool organizers collected, sources told ESPN.

Several participants in Ron & Mike's Football Pool said there were at least five NFL survivor pools this season with at least $2.5 million at stake to the winners. The participants spoke under the condition of anonymity and had access to the website from the beginning of the season.

ESPN has learned that two pools, blue and red, were each capped at close to 10,000 entries with a cost of $100 per entry. Those filled up so quickly that a second-chance pool was created, sources said, at $200 apiece. A high-roller survivor pool was also offered at $500 per entry. Another pool, which started midway through the season, was a second-half pool and cost $100 per entry.

All the pools combined had more than 23,000 entries, players with knowledge of the contests said, with a collective value that surpassed $2.5 million.

How pissed off are you if you were still alive in one of these pools? lol

I don’t think I’ve seen that much snow accumulated on a field for and during the game. It’s literally 3 or 4+ inches so you can’t see players shoes. Half the ball disappears when on the field. The last punt just sunk into the snow.

[Senator Clay Davis]

This was always the most dangerous game left for the Browns on the path to 0-16.

How is that catch by Adam Thielen not a touchdown?
