Okay so not bad: I went 10-6. Some big upsets and well, big mistakes that caused those upsets. That Vikings game was wild: when I stopped watching in the top of the third, it seemed Minnesota had all but lost. But then I found a bit later they won? Colts, what the fuck was that - Saturday should have been relieved for just that. Then you have Patriot Players making asinine moves

49ers over Seahawks
Vikings over Colts
Ravens over Browns
Bills over Dolphins
Eagles over Bears

Panthers over Steelers

Because this is a local game, I can watch it without Amazon.

I think I have to protest this rule.

Yes. He's been awful, the Jets offense has done nothing, and the fans have let him hear it. Now this new guy is in, and he's not super talented, but the crowd loves him because he's not Zach.

The score is 16-3 with about 5 minutes left. Given what happened the last two times this happened, you still got a shot.
