Don't let the Texans blowing a 24 point lead distract you from the fact that the Falcons blew a 25 point lead.

At least it took the Falcons a little longer lol

They aren't really comparable games. The Texans went up 24 due to a couple of individual plays that provided easy TDs. The Falcons were up 25 because they thoroughly outplayed the Patriots for more than half the game.

On the embarrassment scale, the Texans are far less embarrassing than the Falcons were.

Very true. 

This game had a rather bizarre start, with KC's special teams providing the Texans with 14 free points in the first quarter, only for the Texans' special teams to repay the favor soon after.



And that's the bottom line, 'cuz Stone Cold said so!



What a special team?

Thankfully this game had such a start, because that made at least the first half of it entertaining (and very much at that). The second half proved that the two teams aren't on the same level.

The most exciting game of this weekend starts soon. I've watched lots of Packers games this season, you've watched lots of Seahawks games, so we both know that we can look forward to high quality football.

The very highest

Now, I become a Packers fan just for today.



Divisional Picks

Zakaro:
MIN by 3, BAL by 7, KC by 10, GB by 6

RolStoppable:
SF by 13, BAL by 7, KC by 10, GB by 8

Level1Death:
SF by 6, BAL by 9, KC by 10, GB by 4

hatmoza:
SF by 5, BAL by 3, KC by 7, GB by 7

Castor:
MIN by 6, BAL by 14, KC by 10, GB by 3

sethnintendo:
SF by 7, BAL by 14, KC by 7, GB by 3

Rol and sethnintendo have advanced respectively, by virtue of not being dumb enough to pick the Vikings. Level1Death will advance as well, as despite the even record and hatmoza having a better point differential, there isn't enough discrepancy in the point differentials that existed to overcome HFA (even if GB wins by 7 or more, the PDT would be 5 points in favor of hatmoza, 12 points short of the 17 point HFA).



I hope seattle wins. Can't stand packers or 49ers.



As someone who can't stand the Seahawks and wanted the Packers to win... How in God's name is that a 1st down? He's clearly short by half a yard AT LEAST.
The Seahawks got robbed there.

Nevermind the generous spot the Seahawks got earlier when RW was clearly short of the marker.

But he got it, so it's a moot point.
