Cowboys have the game won, just have to run out the clock and kick a chip-shot field goal. (lol giants) Me: They seem to be doing an awful bad job of running the clock down, just run it up the middle and stay out of the end zone. Cowboys score Me: 1:14 and 2 timeouts. ah ha ha watch the slurs come back and 2-pt to win Slurs Score Me: And they also left the cowboys 40 seconds and two timeouts to get another field goal, this is hilarious Neither of those teams had any business winning that game |

Well you guys were right, despite the Cowboys trying to hand the Redskins the game in every possible way, including failure to score a TD until it actually HURT them to score a TD, the Skins would not be denied their shittiness.
They should nuke the NFC East from orbit. But it wouldn't matter because the rest of the NFC is equally shitty. I mean the fucking Seahawks have crawled out of the muck, pried open the window again with a crowbar, and have a shot at a Wild Card with a 7-5 record. And there's nobody really close that can take it away. Who is going to, the Failcons? The fucking Bucs? That's laughable.
The NFC is going to be Carolina and Arizona getting byes (LULZ), followed by the Pack, Vikings, and Seahawks all playing in the WC games with whichever slow cousin wins the NFC East.

Oh that game was so awesomely, epic fail levels of terrible. How do two supposedly professional teams just not show the fuck up until 2 minutes left in the fourth fucking quarter? Oh right, because they are charter members of the rolling dumpster fire called the NFC East. And DeSean Jackson is a fucking showboating idiot. Of course, he's no more an idiot than Darren McFadden, who can't even not score correctly. Goddamn, why not just call victory formation at the 2-minute warning and sit on the ball? You had it at like the 10-yard line. Run the clock down as much as possible and kick the field goal. This is not fucking rocket science. Of course, the fact that their defense couldn't stop this team from scoring with 1:14 left is just ROFL. I mean, I literally laughed at every fuckup both these teams made. Nobody on the field except Dan Bailey wanted to win this thing. It was like the refs had to give the victory to someone merely by letting the clock run out and spare us all the shittiness. That any one of these NFC East teams or any of the teams in the AFC South should be given a home-field playoff game is just a goddamn crime.

McFadden actually RAN OUT OF BOUNDS.
In a play where you needed nothing but to burn time outs and potentially get a first down to kill the clock, HE FUCKING RAN OUT OF BOUNDS. I thought Gruden and Tirico were going to have collective strokes. Then on top of that he actually scored the Touchdown and the Cowboys were excited about it.
The whole time I'm screaming at the TV just kneel on the ball and burn the timeouts you idiots. But once they didn't, we all knew what would happen. The Skins would score and take it to OT. But oh wait, they even scored too fast and then stupidly kicked a returnable kick to a guy who got 45 yards on the return.
The game was worse than watching the UGA-Mizzou game where it was 9-6 at the end, right up to the point where both coaches decided to punch each other in the nuts. For heaven's sake even the stupid Tablets they pimp non-stop failed, and they had IT on the field trying to unfuck the situation like a bad Sprint commercial.

Both of those McFadden plays were a result of really bad coaching or a really stupid player or both. Gruden and Tirico said as much - you coach that shit up first day of training camp. The Desean Jackson punt return was the same - I see so many punt returners reversing field when they could guarantee a good 5-10 more yards than they started with and then they end up losing like 10-15 yards more. Punt return, just run forward until you're tackled. If you are at any time going paralell to the goal line, you are doing it wrong. Of course, I see a lot of other bad decisions by punt returners, like trying to catch the ball inside the 10, so coaching special teams really is a lost art.

At some point I think special teams players just go rogue. It has nothing to do with coaching.

It goes back to coaching at early levels. Shit like "if you are on the receiving team never try to pick up a punt once the ball bounces" is just not talked about anymore apparently. That and "don't run out of the end zone, take the touchback". Coaches would apparently rather risk a muffed punt or getting pinned inside the ten on what should have been the twenty in hopes of the "big play". |

Yeah that was absolutely clownshoes coaching. Completely Zimmer's fault. If there was 10 more seconds on the clock you could try another play, but 13 seconds is not enough time even if your QB doesn't fumble the ball when he is sacked. Kick the FG and go to OT.

You can run another play but it's this : If the quick pass to the sidelines is there, throw it, if not TOSS IT FUCKING OUT OF BOUNDS under 3 seconds. And if your QB is not named Brady, Rodgers, Brees or a select few others then you don't even try.

Yep. You can't put Bridgewater in that situation. He doesn't have the experience yet.

So apparently the Cardinals and Vikings are decent teams now. So much so that I watched what 2 years ago would have been a LOLTHURSDAYFAIL game. I think Bridgewater is a decent QB, thoug he has the arm strength of a plague victim in the final stages. David Johnson is going to be a hoss running back. He reminds me of Shady McCoy and I can only hope he's a bit more durable than McCoy. Bruce Arians' offense makes me smile - he actually throws the ball downfield and I don't just mean 3 long bombs a game at +40 yards while not throwing the ball past the 5-yard mark the rest of the game. I wish Green Bay ran this type of passing game. Of course, not many teams have wideouts as fast and good as these guys. I mean, Larry Fitzgerald is your damn possession slot receiver and blocking wideout. With this defense, this is a contending team so long as Palmer stays healthy. Clock management by the Vikings was pretty bad though and yeah, I'm not quite sure why they were trying to throw long on that last play. There wasn't really a lot of upside there and a whole lot of downside.

The Cards are fun to watch (even though I am obligated to root against them). If Palmer doesn't get his traditional holiday injury they are serious trouble.

I'm more wary of facing the 11-2 Cardinals than I am the undefeated Panthers. They have better coaching and a better passing QB.

Welp. That was an absolutely disgusting second half to the Raiders/Broncos game. Defense can't bail you out all the time, Offense. And DT, CATCH THE FUCKING BALL.

Maybe Houston can pull off a miracle tonight and salvage it with a Patriots loss. |
