The scoop and score play the Jags just took the lead on late in the 4th qtr is typically called an incomplete pass, especially if Brady is the QB.

Took the Titans on the money line with one of my free bets from Draft Kings. The NFL owes me $57 for that call.

Jets won't score a point today with Joe Flacco under center.

Needing Jets to beat Miami could be the death sentence for Pittsburgh (or, technically, blowing the game against the Jets earlier in the season...). If Miami is still playing that shitty third-stringer that replaced Bridgewater last week, I'd give the Jets a fair chance of winning, but not remotely to a degree where I'd feel comfortable putting money on it.

I'd pick Buffalo to beat NE and would call Pittsburgh-Cleveland to be a 50/50 game that would probably come down to how well Pittsburgh can control the ball and eat clock on offense and how well they can contain Watson/Chubb defensively.

I like to scream at Canada but when Pittsburgh scored a TD and refs spotted them on the 1……it’s all on Tomlin, don’t care if Canada called the plays from there. 2nd and 30 inches and hurry up to sneak Pickett????? A hurry is def going to be a sneak. Pickett’s sneaks have been successful all season and this one got them closer to goal line …..just sneak again. Instead handoff ball on the 4 yard line and Harris no room to gather and secure the jump.

Refs should’ve called the TD

Tomlin should’ve trusted Harris…Harris knew (he’s not a dramatic receiver)…..

Sneak on 2nd was fine but why hurry???

Just sneak again.

Pickett hasn’t had a negative sneak all year.

Lol refs helping Pitt at the end of the half.

Refs threw a holding flag on Steelers when it was 3rd and long and Cleveland failed…never showed the penalty. Also hurt Pittsburgh by allowing the terrible play after clock hit 2:00 warning.

This crew has been terrible multiple times both ways.

Watson and the Browns fucking suck. Shocker

Tomlin and Diontae sucking bad today for Steelers

Lol the Browns are so bad. Fucking clowns. 

Fire these refs please….please don’t let these guys get a playoff game. They can’t see. My God

I honestly just want to watch the game…..if the Browns are better and win, good for them. These refs have taken away a TD from Steelers, extended a Browns drive with a made up holding on a 3rd and long that was unsuccessful, gave Steelers new life on a drive on a phantom PI, and now have taken Browns from 3rd and goal on the 20 to a 1st and goal and a TD to keep this game interesting.

We get it NFL….make sure this 7 spot comes down to an exciting play.

I feel like I’m watching wrestling. Fire this crew or investigate them. It’s insane and obvious.

Dolphins in FG range for the playoffs.

Nailed that one. Steelers/Browns referees ruined a potentially fun game.

If Browns just throw over top to Cooper it’ll be there

Fire all Browns coaches. Garbage game

I noticed a huge lack of effort late but I saw some big players not even trying on plays in the first half

Lord….Waddle and Tyreke both limped off field today. If Tua can’t play Buffalo might win by 40

How is the NFL going to make Chargers/Jags, Bengals/Ravens, Bills/Dolphins exciting???

I have no idea. If Bills or Bengals game is close…..something crazy is going on.

If Bills play Bengals is that neutral site? At Pittsburgh seems obvious.

Not feeling real confident in Cincinnati right now. Looked real rusty today. Play like this next week and it’s a loss. 

Lamar possibly back next week which could be good or bad.

Lamar at best will be rusty AF…he still hasn’t even practiced. Bengals aren’t up for this Ravens team sitting 6 starters….they jumped out fast and fell asleep.

It’ll need a crazy happening for it to be close IMO.

But I do 100% respect your thinking that way. I completely get it and would 100% do the same.

I think the Bengals and Chiefs are on their own without the Bills…Bills still seem shook, BUT….when they face you know damn well Hamlin is going to be on that sideline, in his hometown Pittsburgh and as a Bengals person I don’t want any part of that…..so to me Hamlin’s presence keeps them dangerous.

I think the Chargers are dangerous (as Jags beat them by 20 lol)

Zebras strongly helped the Dolphins to that win.  Tied 6-6 with about 6 minutes left, Flacco threw a beautiful 9 yd completion to Garrett Wilson near mid field where he threw the ball low and to the side, where only Garrett could catch it between the 2 defenders, which he did by stretching both hands out along the ground and adeptly cradling the ball between them above the ground.  As he proceeded with the catch, to make it more secure by letting the ball slide about 4" along his forearms toward his elbows so he could clutch it up toward his midsection and make it even more secure.  The Dophins challenged that it wasn't a catch.  The announcers said they saw it move, which it did, but there were no views that the ball touched the ground, and furthermore the horizontal position of the ball did not go down, which you would expect if it went between his forearms.  To my amazement they ruled it incomplete, and the Jets chose to punt and it resulted in pinning the Dolphins at about their 10 yd line.  They got stoned on a 1st down run, then the zebras did not call two holdings at the outside point of attack on the outside run which netted a first down.  From there the Dolphins were able to advance it enough to punt it down to the Jets 10 yd line from where they had to punt which got the ball around midfield from where the Dolphins were trying to get into game winning field goal range.  The Jets made a great play and got the ball carrier OB for about a 2 yd gain, but they called a horse collar tackle that was highly questionable to put the Dolphins into FG range from where they won the game and a place in the playoffs!

This has been a point of controversy the last few days. The bengals were in control of getting that #2 seed. Who knows what would happen with that MNF game but the league basically said if they, Buffalo, and KC win out this week then they’ll stay the 1-2-3 seeds which took away Cincinnati’s chance at the #2 seed. The MNF game was canceled and Cincinnati lost their chance at the #2 seed (and #1 seed if KC were to lose last night but that wasn’t going to happen anyways) 

They also went ahead and crowned Cincinnati AFC north champs but they still had to beat Baltimore today to wrap up home field for next week. If they lost today, they’re still division champs but then they do the coin flip to see if the game would remain in Cincinnati or go to Baltimore. 

I think it’d be fair if Buffalo and Cincinnati won next weekend to do the coin flip for home field advantage for the divisional game instead of just giving it to Buffalo. If Buffalo and KC meet in the conference championship, that game is played at a neutral field. 

It’s a shitty situation that they’re all in. 

Mike Williams carted off with a back injury in a game he didn’t need to be playing in.
