Patriots have just looked...off since their bye. Some of it is due to injuries, but that can't excuse the sheer sloppiness of the play in the past three games. The last two drives of the game today looked a lot better, both on offense and defense, so...hopefully things are turning around somewhat?

Kind of glad this soft spot in the schedule has come when it has, because the Pats are not looking good right now.

Yeah, plenty of time for the Patriots to get their game together for the postseason IMHO.

When everyone was jabbering about the Seahawks barely edging the Pats in that game, the story to me was clearly the Patriots at every level playing like zombies. I've seen that with a lot of teams this year, and wonder if it will catch one of the teams with a playoff bye as well. It's really strange.



Man, what a game. Heck of a comeback by the Chiefs.

I dislike the notion of playing for a tie, but when the alternative is going for a 60 yard field goal and leaving your opponent with a minute and a timeout to drive 30 yards, I think you have to punt it there and at least avoid the loss. Even in Denver, the chances of hitting that can't be better than 50%, and KC was moving the ball pretty consistently over the past two drives.

At the moment, Denver actually trails Miami for the final wild card spot, though that's ultimately meaningless as the Dolphins have played one more conf. game than the Broncos. Denver ends the season with the Patriots, Chiefs, and Raiders back to back to back, whereas a home game against the Pats in the season finale is the only game Miami has left against a team that's better than one game over .500.



Wow chiefs great win. Titans got the broncos 2 weeks from now. I like our chances.

LOL wow what a game. KC *doinked* the FG in to win as OT faded. Amazing. When I heard that noise I thought it was a tie at first. GOLD.

Has the Packers' entire defense suddenly been replaced by the Seahawks from Super Bowl 48's Breaking Madden?

No?

Then I'll probably stick with Philly.



I'll take the Eagles by 13 tonight



Hahah, what'd I tell ya :

A - most of my fantasy team took a complete dump, perfectly timed. Best scoring fantasy team in the league, but very erratic. I'll get 130 points against someone that puts up 45 points, then they'll all crap the bed and score 69 lol.

B - Packers should have absolutely been expected to win this game. Philly is walking wounded, with a makeshift O line, receivers moving around, defensive collapse, just overall trash. Anyone who watched them get annihilated by the Seahawks, who then got annihilated by the BUCS would know this. Oh, and Wentz is going to be yet another QB who plays for about 3-4 years, regresses, and gets punted around as a forgotten backup. Philly eats QBs alive.



Ah, the Eagles are a total joke now, you can see a lot of them have given up, no chemistry, Wentz rightfully has no confidence in his team or his own skills, it's a broken team.

I offered you a super fair trade, you countered with a joke trade lol :)
