Oh my, we’ve got some jugger-naughty thrills and spills coming our way don’t we? I’m genuinely excited for what’s in front of us. Let’s take a not-so-deep dive (“NO RUNNING NEAR THE POOL!”) into the festivities… TO THE GAMES!
L.A. RAMS/SEATTLE:
De facto NFC West Championship Game? It sure feels/seems like it so let’s call it that. If the Rams take it they’ll be up two games with two left to go and the Titans and Niners remaining on their sked. On t’udder side, the Oceanbirds are staring at the Cowboys and Cards afterwards. As noted last week/week before, (it’s all a blur, folks) Seattle’s O relies on qb Wilson’s arm and legs for points to an out-sized extent-containing him in the pocket is a fool’s errand but one which the Rams edge rushers will attempt to do nonetheless. The Rammers also desperately need cb Tru Jackson to recover his form after committing two godawful penalties which contributed to the loss last week. Wr-wise Robert Woods is back in the fold after a wee absence-he racked up a weighty 162 yards the last time these two encountered one another.
Tennessee/San Fran:
This is the over-looked sibling sandwiched between two over-achieving brothers. However knowing how the NFL tends to work, this one will somehow be the most entertaining of the three at the 4 spot.
New England/Pittsburgh:
Here’s hoping this one is able to come somewhere near the parameters of the restraining order that is the hype surrounding this tilt. Does that make sense to you? It did in my thinker-spot. Aside from a 40-17 blowout of the Titans, 5 of the Steelers last 6 wins have come by margins of 5, 3, 3, 3 and 1. That’s bulimia-plagued supermodel skinny win margins, you all. Was it luck? Are they good enough to beat a Pats team coming off an embarrassing (to them) loss to the Fins? Let’s you and me and we see, oui?

And….that was the extent of Hammond almost dying again?
That’s probably the shortest presser Mike Tomlin will ever have.
Also, the call-in shows in western PA tomorrow are going to be G L O R I O U S.

hehehehe boobies
I’m starting to get the impression that Jimmy Garroppolo is pretty good.
I’d like something even more comforting in these dark times.
What a goddamn fifteen minutes of fucking football.
Love too be reminded of the Bears cutting Gould for no good reason.

Now my living room is gonna smellll….oh god. BRB…
WAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaa
Hammond is deds
Man, I haven’t been so happy after a game since New England won their most recent Super Bowl.
/For the fifth time in sixteen years
//Is being a total shithead right now
///Doesn’t care a bit
Who the hell do we think we are, the Pats? (Janeane?)
its drinking time folks
WELL fuck
Much as I loathe the Patriots it is nice to see Roethlisberger finally pay for forcing something where it didn’t belong.
This is banner worthy
here here
On the other hand the current banner does sum up the end of this fucking game perfectly.
Two banners?
Now, let’s again ponder why a RB need only break plane for a TD to count, but a receiver must break the plane, control the ball, perform an interpretive dance explaining the rise and fall of the Greek and Roman empires, recite the alphabet, (the Cyrillic alphabet, mind you), backwards, and then carefully hand the ball to the head linesman, and only the head linesman, before the pass can be considered for replay review to determine if it was, in fact, a catch.
This is the dumbest fucking league. The dumbest.
XmasApe says- There are no *good guys* between the Pats and Steelers but the game being decided on a rule no one entirely grasps is peak NFL
He’s not wrong.
I AM A FUCKING CATCH FUCK YOU

The Steelers have no choice: seppuku

Steelers know no honour.
