Week 13: Other Games

The Lions win!!!! Delighted for them, literally the last throw of the game. Goff with the last throw on 4th and 2.
The Vikes need to unload Cousins and Spielman. Just a brutal display of overratedness and overpayments everywhere. The Diggs trade was good because they got Jefferson, but the Dalvin Cook deal is bad, too. Just bad.
 
Maybe a bit early to do this, but from a playoffs perspective:

Anyone playing against the Ravens, Titans, Chiefs, Bengals, or Bills is good for us, because they are competing with us for the #1 seed.
NFC teams generally don't matter, but the NFC teams we've played (Saints, Bucs, Cowboys, Panthers, Falcons) it's better for us if they win than lose because of Strength of Schedule considerations, unless they're playing each other.
Teams we have tiebreakers over (Chargers, as an example) it's better if they win their divisions than others since we win the tiebreaking procedure.

Chargers winning was great, rooting for the Steelers vs the Ravens ( đŸ¤® ) and the Broncos vs the Chiefs.
 
Jesus. Tom just threw a horrendous pick 6. near his own goal line with 22 secs left in the half, he tosses a nothing pass and the lineman picks it off and runs it in.

Brady is throwing way too many INTs this season.
You really think so? That one was really bad but they throw a ton, a 3:1 TD to INT ratio is good for anyone let alone a 44 year old QB with the most attempts in the league. 3:1 is just about his career average btw which is outstanding.

All of the HOF QBs have a 3:1. It's an easy offensive league. Rule changes.
 
Anyone else impressed with Taylor Heinicke this season?
I liked him last year. I think he's good and seems to get the position. If you let him play, he may be something for them.

4:1 on the day actually. 38/51 (74%) for 368 yards (7.2 YPA) with 4 TDs and 1 Int, for a passer rating of 112.2 doesn't seem like a bad day in the office to me. Sure not throwing the Int would be ideal, but even with this he's outside the top 10 as far as most interceptions thrown on the year, it's just bad by his standards. Then again, 34 TDs on the season with 5 weeks to go would also be atypical.

I was talking about the season since he said he was throwing a lot of picks "this year"

Fair enough! 3.4:1 on the season too, 34:10; but yeah with rounding 3:1 is certainly fair.

The Steelers meanwhile are absolutely atrocious on Offense. Thankfully their defense is keeping the Ravens from running away with it, but their Offense can't get Anything done.
 
Can't help thinking that Tony Romo us dialling it in these days. he started off his commenting career really well and was a breath of fresh air. Now he's just not as incisive and tries to crack quips all the time.
 
Well some inconsistent play by the Steelers O is better than nothing at all; a potential TD is dropped, and a potential INT is dropped, and all told they come out of it with at least a FG and points on the board. 7-3 with 27 seconds until the half.

Not sure if we're talking career or season since I mentioned both but the only QB to have a 3:1+ that started in the same decade as Brady is Rodgers, with almost half the attempts. Brees, Manning, Big Ben(I guess he's a HoF'er), not even close. I'm fairly convinced you hate Brady given your reaction any time I gave him credit for anything.

I wonder if they were getting complaints about some of his commentating and it's throwing him off, like calling out the result of plays before they happen. We get it, you were a QB and can read what an O is doing. It was like a friend that keeps telling you the ending of each Walking Dead episode.
