Oh God the halftime show at Indy is a Mascots vs. Children football game why is that not on TV?

[RIPPA]

Foles staying in the game so there is that

[pipGofern]

Gabbert with a hilarious overthrow and Blackmon is all like "Really dude?"

Edit: and then some penalty shenanigans convince Jax to go for it on 4th and goal and Baby Animal picks it off.

Rams-Jags is officially the first cripple fight of the season.

[RIPPA]

And the Giants just called a timeout so they could challenge a play.

So there is a chance they will be down to one timeout

 

Oh and there are 12 minutes left in the 3rd Quarter

[Josh Mann]

Bal-Mia has been a horribly officiated game on both sides. 1) The Clay TD should have been reversed and 2) I STILL haven't seen the Dolphins commit pass interference.

[RIPPA]

And of course the play is upheld

 

Sigh...

and man does Billick need to STFU about Shady not having control, the ball shifting slightly in your hands as you hit the ground does not equal "losing control"

[James F'n X]

Watching Russell Wilson is a joy.

I was 50/50 to play Tate or Shorts this week...I chose the wrong one. Yeesh.

 

I'm actually kind of weirdly uncomfortable with the Saints' D playing this well. It's not natural.

Possible sign of the Apocalypse.  And that is coming from a Saints fan

 

Seems , I should have started my namesake in Justin Blackmon today as well.

It's Pinata Brady time in Cincy.  472 sacks and counting (even though that one was offsides).

[RIPPA]

David Wilson (who had been out since the 1st Quarter anyway) won't return today.

[RIPPA]

RUEBEN MOTHERFUCKING RANDLE!!!! (who I didn't start... sigh...)

[The Comedian]

I'm getting a strong feeling the Eagles are gonna snatch defeat from the jaws of victory here

[pipGofern]

Andrew Luck just got whac-a-moled across the noggin and fumbled. No flag. Marry a Brazillian supermodel and grow your hair out like a hippy if you want those calls, son.

[johnnyboy]

Tommy Kelly's down clutching his knee

[RIPPA]

Mike Vick is suddenly not in the game and suddenly NYG can stop the ball.

 

Of course - they can't catch punts either...

[The Comedian]

oh yeah we're totally fucking losing this game

[RIPPA]

Yeah - the Giants have gone back to the "Throw 50 yard bombs every play" offense

[RIPPA]

And Eli just used the Giants last time out... in the third quarter

 

So yeah... that's not good

[The Comedian]

Yeah - the Giants have gone back to the "Throw 50 yard bombs every play" offense

 

well it kinda worked...I mean even if your receivers keep missing deep balls eventually one of them's gonna successfully beg his way to a bullshit pass interference call like Cruz did

[RIPPA]

RUEBEN RANDEL EN FUEGO!!!!!

[Death From Above]

Colts with more bomb throwing. Hilton again. Colts go for 2 to tie but don't get the convert.

[Ryan]

I've got Phil's straight jacket and padded cell ready to go. It's in my basement. Don't ask why. Eagles fans are also welcome.

With the NFC East as shitty as it is... winning this keeps the plug in the wall for one more week.

 

Now granted they play the Bears on a short week so it's meaningless anyway

[johnnyboy]

If that had resulted in a turnover I'm sure that Brady would have whipped the soles of Dobson's feet with a cane.
