NFL Week 16 -- Football overload

And he last played almost 75 years ago.

 

So you’re saying there’s no hope of a comeback?

 

I would argue--and I'd probably find agreement with Bears fans like @QYFW and @Regan MacNeil and, well, just about everyone--that it's even more depressing that the no. 1 Bears passer is Jay Cutler. BY A LOT. A Bears QB is probably gonna need six seasons to surpass Cutler's yardage (23,443). Is that gonna happen anytime before 2040?

 

Carolina is no longer a guaranteed win.

 

FTFY

 

Indeed, Bucs should have lost to them six ways to, err, Sunday the last time they played.

 

I have a hot-ish taek here, but Dan Campbell's act is starting to wear a little thin. WHY are you wasting a fun call like this up two scores in the third on a dogass team like the Bears? Wait for a moment when it matters, like week 18 against the Vikings with the division/home field on the line. Toss this on to the fire with the throwing in the fourth quarter of the 52-6 rout of the Jags last month (I know, I know they're all pros and if you don't like it. stop them...still, that was a bit much).

 

It was 27-14 early in the third quarter. Hardly time to pack it in and play ball control. Up 44-14 and yeah, dickhead move. But for a team that had given up 99 points in the previous three games and only beat the Bears by three in their game last month...keep scoring.

 

Certainly not the time to take the air out of the ball, but pulling the last trick out of the playbook against a dogass team?

 

You do those things against shitty teams because you want the good teams — like the Vikings — to think that you might do that or something similar against them, as well. You won’t, of course, because they’re good enough to make the adjustment.

 

Keep scoring. WTF does it matter what play call gets you in the end zone?
