OT: NFL/Patriots 2016 Thread - 10-2

[Fenway]

Big weekend with PIT and DEN losing

Right now we need to watch Oakland and KC and one of them has to get at least a third loss.

Rather go through either of those teams' home-field than Denver, even if they're more well-rounded. We also might be able to avoid Broncos if they win the wild-card. I probably shouldn't be as scared of Denver as I am, considering how beatable they were last year and how they might be even more so now, but they're still the champs.

Anyone see Collins get dusted by Witten for a TD yesterday?

Somewhere BB was smiling

 

[Johnnyduke]

I've seen the Pats with three straight home games before but last night was Oakland's first of 4 straight at home. That seems really odd.

Does either one of those teams concern you?

Well one is in Mexico.

Should have been the easiest insta-ejection ever.

That entire sequence was sad to watch. Made zero sense.

I can still say Roger Goodell sucks, right?

Great.

Roger Goodell sucks.

I don't think I'll ever feel particularly bad for Bills fans or Rex. But **** the Seahawks.

Has to be the worst non call of roughing the kicker ever.

Technically unnecessary roughness, not roughing the kicker. And then to follow it up with standing over the ball, causing a delay a game was ridiculous.

 

[Therick67]

For a guy some claim is doing such a great job, it sure feels like this league has turned into a joke on Roger's watch...

 

[EverettMike]

You know what makes it so clearly, 100% dirty, without any question of whether or not it was unintentional?

He never extends his arms to block the kick.

Never thought of that. Great point!

It was a clear penalty, but that part's not true. He touched the ball.

Last play of the game?

If he did (touch the ball), it was an accident.

Mike is absolutely right in this case. Sherman ducks his shoulder and head and goes straight for the knee/leg.

How he didn't get penalized for this is beyond me? Then the delay of game was adding insult to injury.

Here's a better picture.

That's not an accident. He reaches down, "extends his arm", and touches the ball.

Is Sherman usually on FG blocks?

Ya. The games I have seen, anyway
