NFL Turkey Day thread

    Who you got?

    Bears @ Lions....IMO both teams really need this game. Bears are on the edge of "forget about it" in the WC race and a loss and, well it's over IMO. Lions are losing steam and have to win this home game to keep them in the WC race (I know they are right behind the Packers)

    Cowboys vs Eagles....huge game for both as they both look like playoff teams. Cowboys should win this home game with Foles out for the Eagles. This is Chip Kelly's chance to work his "magic"

    Seahawks @ 49ers....another huge game and the loser will have their backs against the playoff wall. To me this is where Seattle shows whether they are going to go for a repeat or not. They seem to be assuming they can choose when to just turn on the switch.

    Predictions

    Lions 31
    Bears 23

    Cowboys 34
    Eagles 17

    Seahawks 29
    49ers 28

    Bears, Cowboys, Seahawks

    And I think Seattle and Dallas win big.

    Interception in the end zone. Didn't matter anyways, but he and the Bears still suck.

    Yeah....their slim hopes are gone. Sign them up for a good draft pick.

    Eagles dominating early
  • like_that
    Just shitty defense on the cowboys. The eagles WRs have been open by 5-10 yards on numerous plays. That last play on 2nd and 20 was just pathetic.

    It was more than that. He throws it to Marshal to like the 2 yard line, who has an illegal forward pass. Detroit held, so offsetting penalties. They replay it, as an intoned down with 0:00 on the clock...Cutler proceeds to throw a pick lol.
  • Laley23
    Why is it a roughing the passer, blow to the head after he leaves the pocket and is a runner??

    According to my bet it's going exactly as I expected.

    Are you surprised?

    Not sure I understand. Kelly rising up and Eagles winning is not surprising (or Romo and Dallas laying egg)....but am surprised Joe Buck is so over the top at this point in the game.
  • Ironman92
    Romo will get 150 garbage yards and a TD or two down 23 in the 4th
  • Ironman92
    I'm not aware of the rules but just a bullshit play by the Dallas returner.
  • Ironman92
    Romo with a TD pass in 38 straight games....the one he's going to get here shortly won't mean anything
  • Ironman92
    Lol, I'm good

    Perfectly stated so we're on the same page. We agree Kelly rising up and Philly winning is not surprising.

    But your Joe Buck point is true and funny but not what I was referring to. Still hilarious though

    10-0 Seattle where I'm at in the game. 49ers' offense looks bad.

    Nice to see the Lions offense actually wake up. Very easy schedule upcoming for the Lions should leave them 11-4 heading into GB. I do believe the NFL should institute an emergency policy to take of the NFC South situation however, you cannot have a 6-10 team making the postseason

    Too many hurdles and it would be impossible to do anything this year. Your 11-5 Lions going to 6-10 Atlanta could be profitable for Lions fans.....though the 12-4 Saints about 5 years ago lost at 7-9 or 8-8 Seattle to open the playoffs.
