NFL Week 14 -- Let Love Rule

Crowd sounded like a Gals home game. That's because Cowboys ticket holders forced to pay Jerry's seat license prices will cash in on the secondary market at the drop of a hat. No wonder they suck at home and will keep doing so.
 
Just saw a clip of the animated game on the overnight news. What a disaster.
 
On the Manningcast, they showed about 10 seconds of cartoon Peyton and Eli interviewing Homer. That was enough of the Simpsons game for me.
 
That's why the no-announcer options are so appealing to me. Caught my second one on ESPN at the SEC Championship, I believe they call it "Skycast"

Camera angle was from behind the offensive team, and zero PxP or color guy. The only thing you can hear are the game sounds, and either the press box or PA announcer.

So calming to be rid of all the irrelevant bullship that has become a way of life for watching football.
 
After the bonehead play by the Cowboys' special teamer last night, the biggest bonehead play was Devante Adams making no effort to prevent himself from being pushed out (thus stopping the clock). Allowed the Dolphins to come back with seconds to spare to kick a game tying fg.

No effort at all by Adams.
 
In a league full of some guys really not smart, Kadarius Toney can set himself apart.
 
I realize its Tom Brady's world and we're just living in it - but it still astounds me his duties/involvement with the Raiders operations haven't been clarified. He's making $40m a year from Fox. He has access to some info as a Raiders part-owner other broadcasters don't. As a broadcaster, he has access to info some owners don't. If you were a player, coach or owner on another team, would you tell that guy anything? I realize Fox put in some protocols regarding production meetings, but even if you were a Raiders player or coach, wouldn't you want to know if he's the "defacto GM" or merely just a silent partner? Or something in the middle?
 
How much of a stake does he have? 5 percent? Less?

I don't think he's running ship with the Raiders, and certainly not the day-to-day operations. But it's unseemly as hell and should not be allowed, either from the league or Fox or both.
