Week 11 Game Thread

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Perfect pass by Cutler for a TD

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Aww Burfict is hurt. Too bad.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Leveon Bell has 70 of the 78 yards PIT has so far

 

[DanoooME]

Barring a complete turnaround, Marvin Lewis has to get fired after this season, right?

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Gotta like the way McAdoo goes for it on 4th early in games and within FG range.

Both XP missed in this game so far, though. I love XP being hard...

 

[Al Zarilla]

Didn't realize the Ravens were 5-4. Knocking the Cowboys around so far in Dallas.

This team is going to give the Patriots all they can handle.

 

[DanoooME]

Thought it was a fumble by Winston but replay looked like arm going forward

 

[Al Zarilla]

This team is going to give the Patriots all they can handle.

Some were saying the Pats had 4 pretty easy games in a row after Seattle. Probably not. Pats are at home to Ravens though.

They always do.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Looks like we have good Cutler (for now) today

 

[mwonow]

Dalton sucks, but Bills "discipline," so TD anyway

 

[dcmissle]

Bal at Dal well worth watching.

This as good as Bal has looked on offense this year. To this point this season, they have been very uneven with significant red zone problems.

It's a ridiculous comment in any event. There is literally never a stretch of 4 'pretty easy games' in the NFL. We see this play out many times every year, year over year, but we all - including myself - have a selective, perpetual amnesia about the difference in talent and preparation between any two given teams in the NFL. I mean, what are the statistical odds of winning 4 games in a row against any 4 NFL teams, even with a high win expectancy in each?

 

[johnmd20]

Extra points are not being hit solidly today. Three missed already.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Dallas about to lose a challenge on an unbelievable Steve Smith catch.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

What a fucking catch by SS Sr. I didn't think there was a chance he could get to that mid-throw.

 

[mwonow]

Dalton is terrible. How come he always looks competent against the PatsÉ

 

[Marciano490]

Ugly INT by Dalton. Wow.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Dalton is terrible. How come he always looks competent against the PatsÉ

 

[Cellar-Door]

Jags lions. Lions PR signals fair catch. Ref doesn't see it, he returns punt for TD. Not reviewable.

 

[mwonow]

Ah - right

 

[glennhoffmania]

MIN gets a second TD via a challenge. I hate the rule that it's auto reviewed if ruled a score, but the team has to waste a challenge if it's wrongly ruled not a score.

 

[Marciano490]

5 missed xps today.

 

[Al Zarilla]

what a pass by Prescott.

 

[mwonow]

I think Dalton just got Eifert concussed

 

[Al Zarilla]

Nice TDcatch by Edelman-lite, Cole Beasley.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

5 missed xps today.

Think we're up to 6 now.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Mike Tomlin, NFL Genius.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

And the Browns bail him out for his stupidity.

 

[ypioca]

Adam just missed a FG.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I have no idea what is or is not holding.

 

[sodenj5]

Pick 6 in the red zone by Minny.

 

[tims4wins]

Mike Tomlin is so dumb

 

[DanoooME]

Now two untimed downs in Cle

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Mike Tomlin is so dumb

It has to be maddening to be a fan of the Steelers and watching this on a weekly basis. That was stupid, despite the results of the play.

BB was killed here all week for that end of game nonsense, imagine that happening 2-3 times a week during a game.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Think we're up to 6 now.

Now 7! Good thing this isn't a drinking game.

 

[DanoooME]

Another missed XP in Det

 

[johnmd20]

7 missed XP.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Prior to the season last year, I made a post about how the new extra point rule was going to have a major effect in the NFL, and I think a lot of folks disagreed at the time. Pretty sure nobody would disagree at this point. The announcer on Red Zone just called it an epidemic. Sounds about right.

You know who agrees with you?

Spoiler

 

[Al Zarilla]

Justin Tucker 30 in a row field goals now for Ravens.

 

[DanoooME]

Mariota has never had an Int in the red zone. Interesting

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Justin Tucker 30 in a row field goals now for Ravens.

Yep, and Vinatieri just missed on what would have been number 45 in a row, I think. That's the NFL record. Interesting to see if Tucker can catch him, especially in a year where it seems like there are only a few actually reliable kickers left in the league.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Mariota is the real deal. Really fun watching him mature the last year and a half, and he's probably playing like a top 7 QB in the league the last 5 weeks or so.

 

[DanoooME]

Interesting choice by TB kicking a FG with 11secs left in the half on 3rd down. Why not chuck one in the end zone?

 

[johnmd20]

McCoy thumb injury, questionable to return. Offsets Green, I guess.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

LeSean "Glass Joe" McCoy out with a thumb injury.

 

[johnmd20]

Stafford was about 4 inches of head ducking from a career ending concussion. But he's fine.

Red Zone showing a stadium with a ton of empty seats, Cleveland of course.
