Titans finally scored after that awful "offsides" call

That's it for the Titans...Saints are holdin' on by a thread now to any first seed hopes.

The Browns' entire receiving core was put on the COVID list and then some. But, unlike the Ravens, the league did not bend over backwards for the Browns. With their playoff berth on the line. Which is ridiculous. You can't decimate an entire position and expect there to not be a significant cost, even against thr shitty Jets.

And Ohio State QBs tend to be hella overrated by the NFL in general. He is 100% the next Josh Rosen. I would not be surprised for his drafting to be a mainly Dan Snyder thing.

Was about to type all this. XD

Dwayne Haskins is gone after this year, I just wonder if there's anything there with him

Dwayne Haskins released: Washington cuts ties with former first-round pick, Ron Rivera issues statement

Damn. They gotta REALLY not want you to not even try to get late draft pick from someone who may try to take him on as a project, not to mention just eating the dead cap space.

No worries. He has plenty of strip clubs to go to.

My man said, "James Harden can hit the clubs, why can't I?" and got his ass cut XD (with some intermediate steps)

ROFL!

I saw Jaguar's post and immediately thought "If you're gonna follow the James Harden approach to being a professional athlete, the most important part is actually being good at the game."

Barkley was telling a story a few nights ago on the TNT halftime show about how Jimmy Johnson cut a rookie who fell asleep in a team meeting. He asked him what he would've done if Troy Aikman had fallen asleep, to which Johnson said "I would've just woken him up." Seems a little harsh, but I think the broader principle is the same here.

Jimmy Johnson was brutal but I love him and his player's loved him.

This is another hilarious yet brutal Jimmy story:
One day on the practice field he noticed that a rookie kicker was not participating fully in a drill. He asked the kid, “Are you with this program?” The kid said, “I have asthma.” Johnson exploded, “You have asthma? Get your *ss over to the asthma field and have some asthma! The asthma field is over there!” and pointed towards the parking lot.

Sounds like a dick to me.

If any of you question how much I like watching basketball, I'm voluntarily watching a Hawks-Pistons game. For no reason. Not even for fantasy purposes.

He exists.

Bills had an easy time here. No Gilmore made that whole backfield Diggs' playground.

Bills win next week or Bills and Steelers both lose 7th seed gets to hike up to bills stadium in the dead of winter.

Ravens, Browns, Titans, Colts, and Dolphins are 10-5...head-to-head Ravens are 3-1, Titans 2-2, Browns 2-2, and Colts 1-3 but Dolphins 0-0. Dolphins have a better winning percentage in conference games than Ravens do....likewise Titans best the Browns in conf. winning %. if all five of those 10-5 teams win next week, I think it comes out 1) Chiefs, 2) Bills, 3) Steelers, 4) Dolphins, 5) Ravens, 6) Titans, 7) Browns...Browns v. Bills in the playoffs

Dolphins and Browns have tougher schedules next week. Colts, titans and ravens are all matched against losing teams. Realistically, Bills probably beat Dolphins & Steelers beat Browns. Say Colts, Titans and Ravens win...Titans have the better record at 2-1 (Ravens drop to 1-1 without the Browns in the mix). if Dolphins and Browns lose, that means Bills/Steelers both win and tie-breaker goes to Bill, comes out I think 1) chiefs, 2) bills, 3) steelers, 4) Titans 5) Ravens 6) Colts 7) Dolphins....Dolphins vs Bills . Who the fck knows though...next week will determine all.
