not over yet, touchdown Falcons, 24-28 now

I am kinda surprised that they didn't go for two.


they can do that? (still getting the hang of the scoring a bit :p)

they just scored a field goal, so it's 27-28 now, pretty close, they almost got another touchdown

Yes, after a touchdown a team can either kick a field goal for one point or try to move the ball into the endzone again for two points. The latter is more difficult, so it's usually not done. But had Atlanta gone for two and converted, it would have been 25-28, so they could have tied the game with a field goal later on.


ah okay, cool, as they are now 31-27 behind they may well regret not doing so! 



Hey Rol, you had to have made up that quote from Cutler?


Really wish the Texans-Bears game was on now.



STL/SF tied. WTF!
It looked like neither team try to win in OT.

I didn't watch the game, but both teams missed a FG in overtime. STL even attempted a 58-yarder, so I wouldn't say they didn't try.

 

  • 1. superchunk: 9-3
  • T2. BoneArk, chocoloco, insomniac17, Level1Death, SaviorX: 8-4
  • T7. amp316, Kenology, Mendicate Bias, NinjaBlade360, noname2200, RolStoppable, shakarak, Train wreck: 7-5

 

A tie is a loss, I'm guessing.

Now I have even more reason to root for Houston! As Superchunk unsurprisingly picked his 2nd team after the cardinals.

I do not remember hearing of a tie in football in a long time. The game was so boring I stopped watching after the 1st quarter.

First tie since 2008.

Houston all the way. The Bears need to eat dirt. Today no leader in the NFC shall have won a game.

EDIT: Why, Houston? Why? Why are you so horrible?

It helps the Broncos if the Bears win so either way I win.

Not a fumble.



This might sound redundant, but fumble. Lol, this might be a low scoring game.

This will be hhard to deal with being used to the high scoring broncos.



Von Miller is so Swag. Great weeK.

Man, 3 concussions to NFC quarterbacks in one day.



Congratulations to the Houston Texans their the best team in the NFL now, they should easily clinch home field advantage for the AFC.
