Ugly locker room scene after Bears game. Marshall: "You just kick the ball!" Kyle Long blaming for fans for not booing in the 3rd. Lot's of venting.

^ Because Cutler and Romo are cut from the same cloth IMO. When the team is on, and they are on, they are some unstoppable SOBs. When they are off, they are horrific.

I'm no fan of Dallas, but when you look at what they've created it's no joke. Solid O-line, which enables a very good ground attack, which keeps Romo in his lane making the occasional big throw. Really I think they were very intentional about creating an offense that keeps Romo in his sweet spot (upright, and not having to throw to win games). They stay injury free it could be interesting.

But, it's also the kind of thing where the wheels can come off in an instant behind 1 or 2 key injuries...

Hah. The dude I was playing had Bell. I got a little worried when he got a shitload of points in the 1st half but relaxed when he got close to nothing in the second. Still won by 15 points. Still undefeated

Was looking at the roster of a buddy in my fantasy league:

His RBs:
Fred Jackson - Out
CJ Spiller - Out
Adrian Peterson - Out
Shane Vereen





...might want to check out the waiver wire..

Haha poor guy, hopefully he got/gets some combination of mckinnon, hillman, mason robinson etc. All these injuries are definitely creating good waiver guys at the running back position. Definitely helped me out when gore turned out to be something of a dud.

The Eagles are the only NFL team whose logo faces left.

I lost my match by 3 points because Cousins go benched and only got me 1.6 points. I have D. Murray and L. Bell on my roster, along with J. Forsett and Jerick McKinnon and I can start all four of them. And. I. Still. Lost. FML.

In my fantasy match up, I was down by 8 points going into MNF. I had Bell, he had Brown. I literally sat there and watched the lead change a half dozen times. Brown killed me with his last catch (it's a PPR league).

Reality check on San Diego. Damn RB by committee. Hillman should've had those TD's. At least Brees still got garbage time points.

Nothing worse than your RB getting his TD's vultured!

FF sucks at times! I have DT and McManus on my squad, so when another Bronco scores the TD and my kicker only gets 1 point it makes me enjoy it a little less. The Broncos will ALWAYS come before my FF team but the latter does spoil the enjoyment a little.

Either way, go Broncos! A running game and dominant defense to add to the already potent passing game...the sky's the limit!

One of the guy's I'm playing against has Sanders , but thankfully it's in my non-money league. I wish one of those running TDs would have been a passing TD so I woulda gotten more points, but Peyton basically hit his projected points, so I can't complain.

Thanks I couldn't remember the term vultured which is what happened. I was literally going to draft Sanders but the guy before me got him. I knew he'd replace Decker just fine. Gotta love TD systems.

Monte Ball was my first round pick (I had the 12th pick, but still....). He's worked out really well.

I've never cared for these games played over in London... what's the point? Majority of the viewers are still going to be in North America, it's not like we'll actually see a NFL team over there... I would think (depending on which team), the jet lag can really F up their rest time... I just don't get it

I highly recommend you don't put money on that.

Don't the U.K or England have a thing about letting ex-convict into their country?
I remember a Mike Tyson fight was proposed to be in England but was rejected. If I recall right.

So if you were running a company and you were told people out of your market wanted to pay you for your services. You would ignore them?

Not only will you see a London team at some point, you'll see at least two. The idea will be that a team from the US comes over and plays at least two games on a swing and then come back. I think it's still about a decade away, but it is coming.
