Yep, Washington wins...by the skin of their teeth. Taylor Heinicke made one of the clutchiest 4th down throws to get the FG for the lead.

Chicago IS a fine professional football team. :rolleyes:
At fielding good teams with good D and special teams but no QB.

So every time they have a night game, they're tough but uninspiring to watch...and they've been stuck in neutral like that for years.

What exactly is the problem with the NFL kicking game overall this season? I've seen more short misses this season then I have in the last 5 combined seems like!


Has it gone the way of other sports fundamentals like bunting in MLB?

First season in a while where I have felt like there are no teams that are head and shoulders above everyone else. Who is the best team in the NFL right now? Dallas? Arizona? Tennessee?

Right now? The Colts and the Chiefs look solid in the AFC.... without Henry the Titans are in serious trouble.

Since Murray went down the Rams look like maybe the best in the NFC (if OBJ doesn't poison the locker room!).... I'm not sold on the Cowboys or the Packers.

So far the Chargers look to be dominating this game... we'll see.

Herbert is really showing progress.... not only does he have tremendous physical talent but it appears he's got it between the ears too lol!

Was out in the woods then dinner so didn't watch football, but the Cowpaddies lost so it was a good football day.

You picked a good day to mostly skip ... the only really exciting game between good teams was Packers/Vikings.

I'm not feeling all that optimistic about tomorrow night in Tampa btw.

:confused:

Holy crap @ the freaking Squealers! o_O

Even if Pittsburgh loses this (which I doubt now) what a game!

I can't stand Big Ben but man was that a terrible call and execution by the Chargers on 4th down. They deserve to lose just for that.

You already know I think LA should have punted it... giving Pitt the ball there was literally handing them the game and chancing it was straight up stupid.

Would have been nice if LA got that big stop OUTSIDE of field goal range ROTFL.

:rolleyes:

That was fun to watch! But Pittsburgh can pull off a 2 minute drive to get a TD, but with only 1 timeout, though with the 2 minute warning left.

Great game!

Chargers pass rush got downright nasty there, of course they knew zero chances for a run play
