    Member when people thought the Dolphins were actually good the past couples weeks?

    I member.

    No, not watching any football at all. There's a WWII in HD marathon on which I've been watching since this morning. I have no reason to watch football this week. It's the last week of the regular season in my Yahoo league which I've locked up the #1 seed in. So I don't have to worry about fantasy football this week or next week.

    I only watched the gb game because it was snowing. I'll check out the game tonight though with the Seahawks and panthers.

    Watched the GB and Texans, love bad weather football.

    Osweiler is bad, Fitz might end up back in Houston.

    Watching Giants and Steelers now, I'm at work so I can't go anywhere, forced to watch football.

    Cam at least has a leg to stand on. He rarely gets roughing the passer calls. It reminds me a bit of LeBron not getting foul calls because he runs through getting slapped on the arm, but it's a lot more blatant with Cam. He takes a beating back there, so you can call it whining but it's justified and true.

    It's amazing how good of a coach Andy Reid is. Dude was a perennial winner in Philly and always had his team in Super Bowl contention. Maintaining that in Kansas City. I could see them making a run.

    He has a good defense, but it's awesome what good coaching can do to a team. Only 3 losing seasons in 18 years as a head coach. I'd like to see him get a ring. He deserves it.

    Raiders and Dallas both teams that a lot of fans traditionally hate, but if you forget about the laundry they are wearing they are both fun teams to watch.

    I would love to see that match up in February.

    I think the Raiders are gonna give the Pats fits in the playoffs if they get that far. I don't see much getting in their way. They went from dysfunctional to contender so maybe there's some hope for the Nyets.

    Just saw the blurb. Reggie McKenzie has been their GM for only 5 years and they're already elite.

    Oakland plays with 6 lineman.. something the Jets should take note of. Tight end and running back. Run to pass.

    It also helps to hire a good head coach with NFL experience.
    Build a solid O line, and hit on draft picks Carr and Mack.

    Recipe for success.

    Amazing what happens with good drafting supplemented by quality free agent signings. McKenzie should be in contention for executive of the year. Only reason he doesn't win it going away is the Cowboys finds of Dak/Zeke.

    Their first three draft picks from both 2014 and 2015 are all starters. Three are possible All-Pros this year (Carr, Mack, Cooper). Man I wish Cooper fell to us. He was as much of a sure-thing as their has been as a wide receiver prospect since Megatron & before that Larry Fitzgerald.

    He's in for a real test when they resign Carr and Mack to well-deserved monstrous contracts. It'll be interesting to see how competitive they can remain with two stars accounting for $40 million+ on their cap.

    I hope they give New England fits, but Oakland needs to get that 1 seed. Beating Brady in Foxborough is near impossible, especially without a consistent running game.

    Belichick may have gotten a little too cute in getting rid of Jones & Collins. Bet he'd love to have them in January.

    Earl Thomas just tweeted hinting at retirement after suffering a leg injury in the first half. Bizarre. It didn't even seem that bad?

    JV28, we would have to use all linemen, we don't have any TE's, its against Gailey's faith....here's a way to make Kellen Davis an all pro send him to Pats for a towel and watch Brady make him Gronk Jr.

    and Buffalo's playoff dreams go down in large part because of Khalil Mack (sack, forced fumble, forced interception)

    A kid playing college ball in their own backyard who they traded up ahead of and passed on for Samantha Watkins. Good call there Buffalo

    Awesome stuff. It's not like he was playing at the U in Florida and the Buccaneers passed on him. He was in a city that's 52 square miles and they passed on him for a baby in Watkins.
