Bill O'Briens copping some heat for saying the way they came back from a 14 point deficit with 4 minutes to go was he started calling plays that the QB likes.

That goes to back up my statement from yesterday that he runs the offense the way he wants it to look, not the way that suits his players abilities. Unless he has a change of mindset, I think the front office might look at replacing him with someone that listens to players.

I know Josh McDaniels sits down with players and asks them what they want to run, and what suits them, and look what he got Brissett doing.

If you actually watch some of Cleveland, they're fun to watch. Pryor has turned his career around by switching to WR, and Kessler is actually playing well for a rookie with nothing going for him.

I watch FCS football (Div 2 college) so Im not too fussed with the polish of the skills. The battle is what I like.

When Kesslers dropping back, getting annihilated by DE's, getting up and completing a 1st down pass like nothing happened, thats what I like.

I also like the underdogs getting up....hence the Texans. Forever underdogs.

Pretty average game from two teams supposedly in the Playoff mix. Vikings were terrible, especially the offence, at one stage two turnovers in succession inside Phillies thirty and didn't score a point. Special teams made some critical mistakes. Wentz wasn't great, but after quarter time our defense didn't take advantage and he found a way to get them over the line.

A great comeback from the Chargers. 33-30 in OT after trailing 27-10 late in the 2nd.

Gotta hurt Valleys, couple of big losses to the Falcons last couple weeks which would have virtually ended at least Carolina and New Orleans' seasons, and could be important in the Wildcard race by the end of the year

Very ordinary, FH.

I can cop the Seattle loss, as we did well to get ourselves back into the contest after being 3-17 down at the half. Realistically, the missed PI call on Jones cost us a chance at an unlikely victory.

Can't cop today. We had the chargers on toast just before half time, and let it slip. A game that you quite rightly mentioned, could have seen us position ourselves to go straight through to the conference round given Minnesota slipping up today.

Arizona v Seattle ends 6-6.

Both kickers miss short range field goals in overtime to win it.

Whoever im playing this week picked up 3 players I have dumped recently (Mariota, Ajayai and Fleener)
its broncos D v Thomas today, im up by 4 I think.


going to be burnt by ajayi pretty bad tho.
I thought he was going to be a gun, then with Miami having all those RB issues I thought **** ill take the risk and swap him.
