I'm happy to report we not only won 23-0, but shut them out at Lambeau Field for the first time since 2006.
Six sacks, three ints, three fumble recoveries. Smothered them in their own cheese doodle.
Baltimore D now has three shutouts this season.

That was fantastic. You guys are the best.

At least for today.

[Ranoria]

Saints get the win in OT, awesome. I didn't watch the game but it looks like Brees, Ingram, and Kamara all lit it up.

[Val Halla]

Haha! Bengals do something stupid, if only that was recovered by Denver, my season would be complete

[Ranoria]

QB cotroversy in Tampa Bay?

Bucs are 2-0 with Ryan Fitzmagic starting, 2-6 with Jameis Winston starting. And after Winston's comments after the win against the Jets (saying things like 'imagine if I had been in there), and his incident groping an Uber driver, this is getting ridiculous. And not to forget the fact that FSU payed out almost a million dollars to silence rape allegations against him.

[Val Halla]

Again, Peterman picked... nice move Bills, this guy is waaay better than Taylor

Beating the Jets and beating Jay Buttler are nothing to particularly be proud of

LOL, WTF. Are you stuck on that phrase?

The Pats go to playoffs as #1 seeds every year beating teams like that all season in the AFC East for 6 "nothing to be proud of wins."

"Tyrod Taylor deserves to be benched, Peterman played well in pre season"

Peterman in preseason eh?

Peterman has thrown 4 ints and it's in the 2nd Qtr. Chargers lead 17-7.

Worst start for a QB in a while. Currently still playing, master mybe the Bills go 8-8 on purpose

I. AM. SO. HYPED. RIGHT. NOW.

That "on purpose losing" to get a high draft pick is how the Colts got Luck. What an unethical position to place "a professional" sports team. Sad.
I really hope the Bills aren't doing this shit.

It really doesn't make sense, you're not getting a top QB with 5 wins, and you were in the playoff picture. It's just... stupid

Race you to the first round bye!

they probably just already wrote this game off, and are seeing if Peterman can salvage something from this or if the front office is going to have to see about using the thousand and one draft picks we have store to trade up.

Agreed, if they do it again next week. They get a pass (probably intercepted, lol) for this week bc the coaching staff wanted to see if Peterman was any good.
The answer is clearly, no ...not yet anyway.

Is it just me, or is the AFC particularly bad this year? We're at the point where the Bortles-led Jaguars are the conference's third best team, and the wild card options are lousy. In addition, the Chiefs are trying their hardest to give up the West, and no one is obliging them.

I think it was pretty clear that the AFC was gonna be weak this year, but this bad? We're probably gonna see an 8-8 team in the 6th seed

CBS gave up on New England slaughtering Oakland. Bout time.

The Jags have a damn good defense. After accumulating ten straight years of top ten picks, why shouldn't they?

Injuries have weakened a few teams. Baltimore, Houston, KC to name just three. These teams would have better records.

Yeah. What happened to Deshaun Watson is probably the biggest tragedy of them all. After struggling so hard to get a quarterback, the Texans finally find a good one and he gets injured. It is important to note, though, that injuries have also hit NFC teams like the Packers and Bucs that should be in contention.

Packers yeah. Bucs have sucked all year though

[Fauxia]

Jeez, Buffalo. Not many teams let in 101 points in 2 games.

Meanwhiler, my ‘Skins just couldn’t beat a team that was better than them... no, 31-16 with five or six minutes and that isn’t enough.
