Giants
Guess no one told them a win is really a loss with their record.

Glad I didn't waste my day watching the Fins. Ate dim sum and just saw TB scoring on us every time I finished a few dumplings. Twas a bonus waxing my buddy in fantasy, 9 straight wins meaning I will implode in the playoffs.

Eagles keep rolling. Yeah yeah poor Cowboys were missing left tackle, linebacker, running back.

Oh wait
Eagles
LT: Jason Peters out for season
Linebacker: Jordan Hicks out for season
Running back: Darren Sproles out for season
Oh and we lost our kicker too.

​​​​​​​The Cowboys are simply not as good as the Eagles. Pure and simple. If Wentz ever gets hurt it will be game over for that offense though.

on all points.

ALTHOUGH I will say our backup Nick Foles would fair far better than most backup QBs in the league. He's very familiar with the offense coming from KC and familiar with a lot of the team, having been in Philly 2012-2014.

Cowboys missing their three best players, but they're probably still not as good as the Eagles.

Eagles are the team to beat this year.

I feel for the Broncos..... no not really, I'm glad they're sucking this year.

I know we talked about the league having more parody this year but outside of the Saints Redskins game, the rest of them were awful this week.

Nobody in their right mind could have predicted this

Cowboys have no depth. The Eagles are deep at almost every position. Their second stringers are good enough to start for Dallas. The Cowboys need Howie Roseman as their GM.

Seattle/Atlanta game was pretty good last night. If I were Pete Carroll I would trash Blair Walsh and get a better kicker. Over the years that guy has failed them and has failed them again last night to prevent the game going into Overtime. Time to move on!

I think Carroll knows he's range limited which is why they were going to try and inch it forward with 7 seconds left (assuming it's a quick out to the sideline). But I agree - he tanked us in the Washington game and didn't give us a chance last night.

How about the refs tanking the intentional grounding call in that Saints game. No excuse for letting the Saints tie it up with less than 4 minutes left, but being in field goal range, losing the down and the 10 second run off on that botched penalty is ridiculous.

Over the YEARS? He’s only been with the Seahawks this year.

Pretty interesting how the Vikings are just flying under the radar at 8-2. Not really getting talked about. They shut down the Rams last week and have played great all year, despite Cook and some other set back. Wouldn't be at all surprised if they go far. I'm a die hard Vikings fan btw haha..

You'll know if they are for real in the next 3 weeks.

Away vs Lion (who they already lost to)
Away vs Falcons
Away vs Panthers

One of our losses is a road game. I think we got the Lions tomorrow. I feel we've really coming together and since that losses. You never know though. Definitely 3 very tough road games.

No. Absolutely no reason as of now. I personally like Keenum and the offense really clicks with him. He has the 2nd highest QB rating going into tomorrow. Teddy should get a shot at some point, but now isn't the time.

Great skill guys. 2 good RB's and 2 stud WR's. Imagine with Cook. Plus Teddy and Bradford on IR. I can't believe your GM is the same guy who fucked up the Dolphins.

Kids today can watch all the highlights in the world but will never understand the fear that this man put into opposing offenses on every single play. He changed the game

Novak and all those missed extra points.... but I guess he was injured

cowboys
Chiefs

Stupid Talib and Crabtree


Also, heard the Giants will not be starting Eli.... Of course work blocks all sport related things, so I can only read the headline, which could be click bait.

I haven't watched anything outside of red zone but they literally don't have any WRs. Ands it's not like they are starting some young prodigy, it's Geno Smith. Didn't know he was till in the league
