Week 11 Game Thread

[shawnrbu]

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

But Jamie is enjoying the family atmosphere.

 

[johnmd20]

Respect to Terrell Pryor. The only player on Cleveland actually playing.

 

[Al Zarilla]

1,000th career reception for SS Sr.

 

[mauf]

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.

Kudos to the Titans' FO for building an O-Line and running game to enable that success. I doubt he'd be enjoying similar success in Jacksonville or Tampa Bay.

Speaking of JAX, Bortles just threw his 10th career pick-6.

 

[johnmd20]

Blake Bortles and James is horrendous.

 

[sodenj5]

Awful fake punt attempt by Tennessee.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Another missed PAT , Robby Gould. 22-16 NYG over chicago

 

[Al Zarilla]

Surgical, long TD drive by Dallas. 92 yards.

 

[johnmd20]

Surgical, long TD drive by Dallas. 92 yards.

Elliot played a role in that drive for the first time today. And they scored. Who knew Zeke was awesome?

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Surgical, long TD drive by Dallas. 92 yards.

Finally ran the ball. Zeke had 0 carries in the second quarter. That should never happen.

 

[sodenj5]

Man Mariota drops a dime.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Kessler injured. Unnecessary roughness on Lawrence Timmons on the play. Edelman, Bennet and DION LEWIS, all active for Pats.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Throwing some helmet around in Dallas, and not leather.

 

[dcmissle]

Elliot played a role in that drive for the first time today. And they scored. Who knew Zeke was awesome?

Wear and tear from oline starting to show.

Cowboys have too many weapons.

 

[Over Guapo Grande]

Another missed XP. 9 on the day

 

[Harry Hooper]

TD Dallas. Combining a blitz with big cushions in the secondary is not a good combination..

 

[Al Zarilla]

What happened to Jerry Jones' mantra "Tony Romo will be the starting quarterback for the Cowboys when he's healthy"? Somebody talk him out of it, or did he just come to his senses?

Tony is 'not quite there yet', I am sure.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Romo's going to spend his golden years in Arizona, starting next season

I'd put my money on the Jets. I think the Jones clan will want him out of the NFC.

Fair point

No one has the balls these days to do a Bledsoe-to-Buffalo type deal

 

[Cellar-Door]

Blake Bortles and James is horrendous.

Bortles was good today. Pick 6 hit his WR right in the hands.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Tampa Bay could be doing the Pats a tie-break favor today

 

[dcmissle]

SS Sr is joy to watch

 

[mauf]

Jags D had been stellar today until that play.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Jags D had been stellar today until that play.

Second totally blown coverage today though. Earlier nobody covered Marvin Jones, but Stafford never even looked at that side of the field.

 

[Al Zarilla]

SS Sr is joy to watch

Little shit got the Panthers back into SB 37 against the Pats coming up on 13 years ago. Of course, Tom made sure the Panthers wouldn't win.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Nothing like seeing a spine compress live.

 

[dcmissle]

Dak to Beasley for 17 and crucial first down.

Reasonable health + the defense they have = SB favorites in my book.

Too many weapons and their o-line will NOT get NY-Gianted in the playoffs.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Oh Jags. Jump off on the 4th down hard count.
Edit it was pretty clear that DET wasn't running a play too.
Basically cost his team any chance of winning.

 

[mauf]

Oh Jags. Jump off on the 4th down hard count.

Jags should've called timeout to conserve time anyway, which likely would've resulted in more disciplined D. So this falls in large part on Gus Bradley.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Not calling timeout was fine to me, get it back 2:30 and 2 timeouts. DET lined up with no RB and all WR tight. No chance they are running a play there.
Of course dumb decisions and bad discipline are Bradley's fault too.

 

[shoosh77]

Colts timekeeper ran down the clock on a 4th down stop. Integrity.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Dalton driving late. All check downs.

 

[Brand Name]

The Vikings became the first team with a 100-yard kickoff return for TD and 100-yard interception return for a TD in the same game since the 1962 Cowboys, who did so while winning 41-19 against the Eagles in Week 5.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Man the Bears O-line sucks!

 

[Ale Xander]

Why arent the Giants declining this?

defensively, 3rd and 24 is better than 2nd and 29.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

NYG take a 5 yard penalty. 2nd and 29 vs 3rd and 24?

 

[Ale Xander]

CUTLER!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Cellar-Door]

Cutler underthrow easy pick.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Is there any qb you'd less want running 2 minute in a close game than Jay Cutler?

 

[Ale Xander]

2 of them are in the AFC East

 

[genoasalami]

Bucs were frisky today. Nice win by the guys on Dale Mabry.

 

[Ale Xander]

Can't take a 3rd strike, 92.

 

[Cellar-Door]

So that dumb offsides costs JAX 2 minutes 10 seconds and 3 points.

 

[cshea]

Cards get a roughing the passer call on 4th and 19 from their own 5 to extend their hopes...

 

[PedroKsBambino]

2 of them are in the AFC East

Jets don't have a qb, really. You thinking Tannehill? I'd prefer him.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Another pass popped up by WR (at least this one was a bit behind him) pick DET, game.

 

[Tony C]

sometimes the red zone kills me. roughing the passer penalty saves the game for the Cards (for the moment), but they flip away before see a replay (and I didn't flip fast enough to get it, alas).

 

[Tony C]

not to worry....Palmer has nowhere to throw
