Ugh. Turned it to ESPN just in time to see that.

I love the sound of a good DOINK.

[Calvada]

I hope there's plenty of ice in the officials' room after the game; they will all need to ice their arms and shoulders after throwing all these flags.  I agree with Aikman (and that makes me very cranky) that this has been like a preseason game.  

[Carey]

Wow that was a beautiful throw and catch!  Maybe not the former, but regardless of who did the catching, the latter is a fact!

Video of despondent Jerry Jones will remain my life's blood until he finally shuffles off, but despondent Aaron Rodgers is giving me a nice boost as well.

I missed sad Skeletor yesterday, but the look on Rodgers' face, sitting on the bench, contemplating another loss made up for it.

Bills 23 - Jets 20

I almost feel asleep during the 4th Quarter with the constant penalties in this game. Thankfully, Aaron Rodgers & the Jets found a way to mess it up at the end. I just wish that we had that punk ass bitch Fireman Ed reaction to that INT at the end. He deserves that type of ending just like the rest of the Jets. 

Overall, Aaron Rodgers, Fireman Ed, & the Jets are a bunch of losers. 

[Carey]

Magog & Bastet? I apologize for not reacting to your posts with a balloon and confetti reaction.  So the one I chose will just have to do!

Speaking of sad Skeletor, here is that walk of shame from him & those Cowboys after that 47-9 massacre. 😂 😂 🤣 🤣

Jerry Jones & Cowboys Walk of Shame after 47-9 massacre

I rather we are not going to keep insulting the real Skeletor by comparing him to Jerry Jones. At least, the real Skeletor is very charming, classy, & rootable.

The team down South isn't 3 decades removed from the title with the Skeletor running things.

He's had FOUR in his entire career.   He's not even like 12th in  line for the throne.  

Who knew that firing the defense minded HC would cause the defense to regress while do absolutely nothing to improve the offense.

Curious who the other 11 are in this era. He’s had three of the 16 TDs between 2009-2020, so that seems like he’s been one of the most accurate. I still can’t stand him, but he’s still got some arm.

Oh I'm talking all time.   I mean Roger Staubach invented the term.   Doug Flutie, that was about all he had.   So Rodgers having 4 is just not that impressive to me.

Pretty sure most of us here knew that. Guess Woody Johnson Aaron Rodgers did not.

I have given up on the Cowboys this season.   But only so maybe, possibly, somehow, Jerry realizes he doesn't know anything about football and will stop being GM.   Just write the checks and sit in the owners box trying to look pretty, that is all we ask of an owner.  

I pray for the day someone other than the Jones family owns the Cowboys. It's embarrassing. Pretty sure my 13 year old would do a better job than he does.

From Cleveland To Buffalo: Former Alabama Great Headed To His Fourth Team Within A Decade

While the Steelers made the necessary moves to hit the big 9-8, other (fairly) great teams have continued to make moves toward winning big games in January and most important February.  For example, the Vikings of Minnesota

[mojoween]

Reeeeeeeediculous.  FOX, you are so stupid.  You had something great with Greg Olsen, and you threw it away for a guy who can’t properly do his job.

 

[roamyn]

Good luck Amari!  We'll miss you, bit it's better for you in Buffalo.  Maybe this will help them get past the Chiefs.

And I have to say that Andrew Berry did well in the whole trade circle.  They gave up a 5th to Dallas three years ago to get Amari and got back a third plus the Bills are taking his whole contract.  We'll even throw in Deshawn...please....  (since we know Andrew wasn't behind giving that massive money dump to DW)

Noe that this has been approved, the Raiders are officially in the shitter. I need to find a new team, dammit.

There is something wrong with the Saints uniforms, but I can’t figure out what.

[Carey]

There is something wrong with the Saints uniforms, but and I can’t figure out what.

As mentioned elsewhere, Dennis Allen is not going to be the first one fired.  Though it isn't a shocker that it had less to do with their super early start and more to do with who they are.  That, and J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets.

I do think it'll be curtains at the end of the season at the latest.  New Orleans is missing Derek, but Allen is a defensive guy.  MIA QB isn't the best excuse, and this is a Thursday game.  At home against the guy Dennis replaced.  I guess it'll be a shame what happens to the guy

[Carey]

I'm not watching Jacksonville play yet another game in London.  I skipped everything last week, and I will be passing up on Early AM football this time around.  Sadly, this AM game makes last week look brilliant.  It's too bad that the slate of International Games this year are super-horrible.  I was fortunate that the Jets/Vikings game was decent.  The Packers/Eagles was okay even though the field was the opposite of decent.  Next month's Munich battle is going to be a nightmare.  Usually there are surprises in terms of decent play after seeing the participants, but my goodness, there is ZERO hope for the November international game.

In all fairness, things could be worse.  For example, I could be Jay Cutler and be forced to watch Jaguars/Patriots.  One of at least an infinite amount of reasons why I don't drink & drive...and have never illegally "carried"

[mojoween]

I haven’t seen when The NFL Network goes to the booth, does anyone know who the color guy is for this London game?  I know the voice, but his name is skating away at the edges of my brain.

[Carey]

Joe Thomas, I believe

[Magog]

The Steelers basically failed us couple of weeks ago losing to the Cowboys. They better not disappoint us again this season by falling flat on their faces against the sucky Jets tonight. 

Davante Adams should be kicking himself for leaving one dumpster fire (Raiders) to go to another dumpster fire (Jets). He should of been smart enough to tell that punk ass bitch Aaron Rodgers, thanks but no thanks. Now, he's never going to get a sniff of the Super Bowl. Especially playing with Aaron Rodgers & those losers.

FOX played the “Wecome Back, Kotter” theme song under images of a trio of Eagles fans wearing green Barkley jerseys in the stands and finally ending on Saquon getting ready on the sideline, and there are two groups of people: those who sang along, and those who were like “what in the actual fuck was that music?”. I am very old, and am therefore in group one.

In a perfect world they shouldn't let y'all down.  As you know, Magog, we are not in a perfect world.  You might want to skip Sunday Night Football tonight.  To be honest, I actually can see them getting blown out.  That should or would validate a storied, once elite franchise being hijacked or intercepted by two dudes who burned down (figuratively) what made it legendary in favor of crowning themselves to the point where the most important thing is to look better than the best in front of their dozen mirrors within the confines of their homes.

Though I'll agree that Adams would've been better off in Kansas City.  No way that was going to happen.  At least he didn't go to Baltimore.  Buffalo would've been okay though.  Same with a lot of other teams, but they already appear stacked

Looks like Browns found a way around benching Watson.  Still stuck with that stupid contract.

[Fukui San]

Everyone wins?

The one game in which he seems to be playing well, at least according to stats.

Why do other teams make things look easy that the Giants absofuckinglutely fail at?

I feel bad for Browns fans but Watson is just cursed. Some might say karma is working. By the way I'm some.

Jayden Daniels was taken to the locker room for X-rays. Mariota is in. 

[mojoween]

The only worthwhile time Tom Brady is on my screen is when Fred Warner also is.

And it sounds like ol’ Tommy Boy heard the comments about the tone of his voice, or he has a monster cold.

[Mountainair]

Could the Panthers look anymore like sh!t?! Good Lawd…….

[Calvada]

I wish the Lions @ Vikes game had been a later start; I would have liked to watch that game but it was at the same time as the Packers.  Now for what seems like the 47th straight week, the late game being shown in my area is the Chiefs.  Quite the trifecta for me - Romo and his never-ending word salad on the Packers' game, Chiefs for the late PM game, and Rodgers on the night game.  I'm definitely going to need alcohol (and the mute button) to get through SNF.  

[Carey]

I think I'm definitely quitting all things NFL if Tennessee defeats Detroit next week.  Same thing if Detroit just simply wins but without the comfort

[emma675]

Dear Green Bay Packers fans, thank you for cheering so loud you drowned out Tony Romo's incessant chatter for much of the 4th quarter.

[Carey]

I guess the good thing is preserving life, since it's possible that I'll need a ton of alcohol myself to get through the NFL, let alone Sunday Night Football.  By the way, Calvada, A-Rod isn't even the top story, and some people might need more than mute and the booze.

It figures that Kansas City is the last team standing in terms of winning & losing.  First that, and then Daniels goes down ahead of Chicago/Washington next week.  We can't have nice things, ever.

Though the interesting thing about that first part is that despite the fact that this is the fourth time in the past decade and a half that KC has been the last team to lose a game, that hadn't happened since Patrick's first year in the league.

Great games in the NFC North this afternoon though!

Yes, I am VERY aware.  But we're not supposed to mention those things on Primetimer!  I just hope they've got extra security on the two locker rooms following the game.

The thing I was talking about was Mike Tomlin benching a winning QB for an old QB that can't move as much anymore.  People have been irate at the fact that Coach T can wreck the franchise and face no consequences, whereas everyone else gets nailed for less.  Or for nothing in this case.  First time a QB with a winning record gets pulled for no reason, and he's not even hurt

The climate in Pittsburgh is rather cold.  The fans are upset that Mike got another contract extension following a period where he should've been let go.  In that period, they've finished in a spot that didn't exist 5 years ago for the postseason.  Lack of success and no standards anymore.  Shows that the owner is actually lazier than Jerry Jones.
