Week 17

We have no backup lineman at this point I think so we could see some excitement (on 3rd RG of the night) don’t know who is left.
Some of the greatest stories of all time came out of that.
Silence.
That’s some powerful chemistry.

Flacco is going to break Browns fans hearts in the playoffs. I wonder if they know it’s coming.
I don’t know that it was that unfair. He was really bad for 3 and a half seasons. Hell, Trevor Siemian finished ahead of him in passer rating in 2016 and Flacco was bottom third of the league for several years in a row. Super Bowl MVP aside, he’s one of the statistically worst long term starters in the last 20 years. Capable of some brilliant throws (some of which came in big moments) and great games but his career numbers in Baltimore are very close to Mac Jones’s career numbers. Flacco was obviously better than Mac, and his 2012
insane playoff run was legendary. But he was dreadful in a lot of his earlier playoff games and was a below average QB week in and week out most of his decade long run with Baltimore. It also didn’t help his cause that he followed up his brilliant 2012 playoff run with a bottom 5 season in 2013 so fans turned on him really quickly
Lol at Jimmy Johnson just getting into the Cowboys Ring of Honor. So far, Buck has ignored the elephant in the room there (Jerry and Jimmy are merely ‘old friends’!).
Ehn, who cares? Some day, Kraft, Belichick, Gronk and Brady will all be in the HoF and they'll laugh over all the good times

Sure, but this particular schism lasted an almost thirty year period, so it seems to merit mentioning by the people covering the event.
Granted. I guess it's just something that interests me all that much. I'm sure it'll be addressed at some stage
My old man mind is kicking in, and this may be from the 70's, but doesn't Dallas always want to wear the white unis?
Or is this some mandated B.S from the league?

It might be true that Detroit is so used to wearing white on the road that they brought the wrong uniforms.
Not certain but I think the home team gets to choose helmet, jersey, and pants.
Yeah, it’s unusual for them to wear the blues. I doubt it’s league-mandated, with the exception of alternate unis (eg throwbacks) the home team generally dictates which uniform they, and thus the road team, wear.
This is Championship week for most fantasy leagues right? Good in a yardage league if you have Lamb
I remember George Allen on the Redskins and the NY Giants would opt to wear their whites at home just to aggravate the Cowboys and make them wear the dark blues. Dallas always opted to wear white at home. Since Dallas is wearing blue at home I'm wondering if they abandoned that superstition??
I recall the Giants some decades back making a rare decision to wear their white uniforms at the Meadowlands to force Dallas into their blue uniforms.
