And we all know about the Fins coach firing, and also, the Lions are the ONLY winless team in Football.

I don't think that's gonna end this week.

 

[RPD]

I agree with all your picks except I expect the Steelers to beat the Chargers.

Obviously have to go for Seattle. Beast Mode should be back, maybe that'll take pressure off Wilson. Also depends on whether their hilariously bad O-line can start shaping up. Eagles and Saints are equally bad, but I'll give it to them for being at home. I'll take Titans over the Bills because they're at home and I expect Mariotta to start cutting down on the turnovers that have hurt him.

Took me a bit to figure out the "cheating scandal" in the story was him having an affair, not breaking an NFL rule. Given how much Deflategate has poisoned the well those words should be off-limits when discussing anything that happens off the field.

 

[Banana]

This week's thread title > last week's.

My upset pick is Lions over Cardinals. Lions at home, pissed off (possibly), and will benefit from refs' make-up calls

 

[lupi]

Looks like Indy will be out of luck again this week.

 

[JujuFish]

It's an odd-numbered week; we should see the good Bills team Sunday.

 

[Imported]

It's an odd-numbered week; we should see the good Bills team Sunday.

And a 50% chance of a decent 49ers team.

 

[Phoenix86]

Damn, it's going to be a depressing few weeks for Cowboy fans. Pats, Giants and Seahawks next 3 games with all these injuries.

They're the lions...they go out with a whimper, not a bang.

Tannehill supposedly crapping on practice squad players. This report is a bit on the hearsay side but if it's true what he said about the paycheck of the practice squad players...what a fucking douchebag. And what doesn't seem to be in contention is that practice squad players were told to go easy on Tannehill to build up his confidence. I'm sorry but when you sign nearly a $100 million contract, you lose all rights to have someone go easy on you. You should be the cream of the crop. The elite of the elite.

 

[Imported]

You're missing the Raiders game in the picks.. but Denver gonna win so why bother?

 

[lupi]

houston sucks.

 

[pete6032]

This game is incredibly boring. Feels like a scrimmage.

 

[emperus]

Wow. Terrible

 

[glenn1]

HAHAHHAAHHA Indy fail, what assclowns

 

[lupi]

lolololol


six on one coverage and the idiots let him catch it.

 

[glenn1]

lolololol

Yeah, that's what tends to happen when all six of those defenders are behind the receiver where they can't make a play.

 

[WaTaGuMp]

That was some fine defense, Colts.

 

[smackababy]

Colts aren't playing particularly well, but getting look to be getting it done. Gore still runs hard, despite it being a bunch of geriatrics out there.

 

[emperus]

Colts D sux.

 

[lupi]

houston secondary is sucking ass. colts going max protect having 7 on the line to block 4, and yet the colts keep moving the chains.

Don't know HOW I missed that.

Thanks!

 

[IndyColtsFan]

HAHAHHAAHHA Indy fail, what assclowns

Well, they're led by a trio of assclowns: Pagano, Grigson, and on defense, Greg Manusky. This team is going nowhere. The only winnable non-division games I see are against the Buccanners and Dolphins and if they win those and the rest of the division games, that's an 8-8 finish which SHOULD be enough for Irsay to hopefully clean house.

I did think it was funny seeing Mallet pouting on the sideline - he isn't going to last long with that attitude.

 

[Jimzz]

Yea Mallet is a bust, even the Patriots could not use him. Houston was back in the game when they took him out.

The person worst off though is probably luck. Hassleback has played really well the last 2 games. So if Luck comes back and has problems again; hard to say its the O-line or other things when a older soon to be retired QB plays better.
So how long till the Colts trade for RG3???

I agree with that. It happens in sports all the time. More so in the NBA, IMO, when a refs blows a call, all it takes is for the beneficiary to look at someone wrongly, and the whistles fly.
