I can finally breathe after 3 hours
Super Bowl preview? I don't think my heart could take it. 49ers are as good as everyone says, and adjusted both their offense and defense well.
Closer than it should have been maybe, with two absolute bullshit calls going 49ers way, one giving them a 4th conversion, the other cancelling our 3rd conversion (and the refs have been totally fair pretty much the entire season in the games I've watched, so this isn't something I often bring up).
Edit: And the Patriots lose! What a day! |

Results wise not to my liking, Vikings defense played like ass which has been the same way they've been playing for a while now. The D used to be their strength now it's the elephant in the room. Cousins was suspect now he's putting up 30+ every game, not sure what more they can ask from him.
Overall good time, parking is expensive probably better off staying at a hotel and ubering the parking will be half your hotel bill for the night.

Yeah I was surprised by how many Vikings fans I saw on TV! Impressive!
It was an amazing game, too bad it didn't go your way as a Viks fan. Cousins has proven to be a good signing for them after all (earlier in the thread we were both VERY doubtful!) but somehow their D has gotten weaker. Especially Rhodes, what's going on with him?
Apparently Cook will be back, so that's good at least
Vikings will probably finish 11-5 or 12-4 with an easy schedule, but unfortunately the fudge packers have an easy one as well. Good luck!

Good job KC !!
Barn burner in New Orleans ... SF really learning how to play in the clutch. They looked tentative against Seahawks a few weeks ago but it looks like they are maturing at the right time.

The Pats offence, especially Brady, played awful!
Interception, dropped passes. The list goes on and on.
the Chief's defence stepped up big time to match their potent offence.
Mahomes played really well.
I gotta say though the refs missed some calls on penalties that favoured KC.
There's no way that N'Keal Harry stepped out of bounds on the 3 yard line!
That was a TD pass! There is no way that is a non-TD call!
Belichick used up his coaching challenge earlier in the game. Otherwise, he would have sure challenged that non-call on pass interference late in the fourth quarter. The refs were horrible!
That being said, hats off to KC for outplaying the Pats on their home field.
Full marks for the win.
On to Cincinnati!

I actually feel bad for the Patriots players, they have by far the worst fans in all of the NFL. Imagine booing your 10-2 team off the field at halftime? Absolute trash home crowd. We rarely see it, since they rarely lose at home, but when they do the fans turn on them so quick, it's literally disgusting. If I was a Pats fan it would be unbearable. They almost got the win too, despite being outplayed, with all sorts of craziness with blocked punts and trick plays. KC held on in a fun game though.
SF vs NO was just INSANE! I only caught the last quarter, but man I love it when games live up to the hype. I don't get how SF gives up that many points though, but it was just one of those games. Kind of like LAR vs KC last year.
A lot of the time a team will win a big game like this and come out flat next week. Guess we'll see. Not sure who SF is playing next week, and I still haven't watched the Seahawks game so I have to avoid spoilers.
As for Ravens vs Bills, not an exciting game but still a nerve wracking one. I had this game pinned as a loss for most of the season - even during this run. The Bills at home are easily one of the best defenses in the league. Unfortunately for them their offense doesn't live up to it, and the Ravens had one of their old school dominant defensive wins. I heard Allen was getting better, so I don't know if this game was an aberration or not. He looked awful on a lot of passes, wind notwithstanding. Like I said, everyone is talking about Lamar, but the Ravens defense is for real.
Offensive play calling was really weird. They didn't seem to want Lamar to take the ball as much (but when he did, oh boy), and passing was bad since it was so windy. Some weird trick plays that didn't work at all, and when that happens they just look bad
I was almost sure they'd blow this one but the D held up, despite the refs giving them like 60+ yards of BS penalties in the final quarter. Seriously, the most ridiculous calls! I know this is 2 weeks in a row complaining about refs, but I rarely do this and it has been really brutal the last 2 weeks. This time it went both ways, but that final Bills drive was just disgusting.
Hope Andrews is OK
Final play of the game, Marcus Peters seems to be working out pretty well
Thursday Night vs the Jets!

OK Pats fans are the SECOND worst in the league... Eagles fans are booing their team off the field on each of the first two possessions of the game! |

Yup impressive comeback, albeit against a very non impressive team lol
There aren't many actually consistently awful teams in the NFL. Pretty much it's just the Dolphins, Bengals (and even they can put up a fight and have lost close ones), Redskins, and Giants. Jets go back and forth between trash and decent, and I guess the Jags are there now as well.
This is kind of why I don't like the argument that a winning team isn't good, based on their schedule aside from these teams (who BTW make up for 5 of the Patriots wins, and 2 of their last 3 games are against these teams, but that's neither here nor there ).. Just about any team can beat any other team. Broncos beat the Texans last week. Except for these actually awful teams, any win is a good win.
I can see why the Patriots are cheating to beat the Bengals, they actually have a chance to win at home. I do hope they get busted and punished hard. Their players don't deserve it, but their owners and fans do.

[B]Reports: NFL investigating Patriots for filming opponents
Nothing surprises me anymore with the Pats. As a Pats fan, I've seen Spygate in 2007, Deflate, and now this incident.
Belichick and his coaching staff are cheaters. Although it puts an asterisk on all of their Superbowl championships, it doesn't take away their rings.
The Pats also have an owner who was caught getting a happy ending at a spa this year. Talk about being busted in more ways than one.

As more info on this comes out, it is pretty clear that they were doing what they did in 07. Blatantly recording sideline signals.
They have to come down hard on them this time. Maybe suspend Belichick for a year and take a draft pick?
I wonder what this does for Bill's legacy, considered the greatest coach of all time, hands down. But if he's been doing this all along (and he was for a long time before getting caught the first time) it pretty much confirms that a lot of credit has to go to him cheating. Also what else is he doing that he's getting away with?

History making night in New Orleans. Brees just tied the NFL record for most touchdown passes. He could break it with another 1/2 of football game to go.

BTW his brother died last month apparently. Pretty obvious way to trigger a relapse.
Feel really bad for the guy, but yeah I don't know if he'll be given yet another chance. If the drug in question is just weed though, they really should just allow it. I think they will after the next CBA.

Ya they should. Weed is the opposite of performance enhancing when it comes to sports.
