NFL 2013: WEEK 8

[Ryan]

Griffin's going to get splattered by the end of this game.

[BobbyWhioux]

This Steelers-Raiders game is an absolute comedy of errors. It's quickly turning into a battle of who can suck the least.

 

Jacoby Ford keeping the Steelers in this game.

 

[He is, unfortunately, the Raider return man]

[RIPPA]

The players in this game do realize they are allowed two hands to catch the ball right?

[Ryan]

Nice call, refs.

[pipGofern]

Except the refs, clearly on the take, came up with a convulated reason to give he ball back to the Raiders.

The only chance Steelers have is if they somehow keep Pryor in the pocket. That interception was a comical Kordell Stewart-esque overthrow. Then again, Tebow 316 managed to whoop their ass.

[The Comedian]

What’s really disconcerting to me as I watch the Eagles is not that they’re not good this year (which I didn’t expect anyway), but that they’re not gonna be any good next year either. They have so many holes that it’s gonna be at least 2015 before you can make that team into anything.

 

And then on top of that I get to watch the whole football world fellate Andy Reid after he’s managed to accomplish the incredible feat of going the entire first half of his season without playing a single decent team…

[hammerva]

Steelers are playing like garbage and the skins are competing with the broncos.

This is turning into a horrible week

[RIPPA]

God the Broncos defense isn't very good

[Tabe]

Pryor's run if you want to see it. He basically is a faster Cam Newton body-wise. I don't think he has nearly the arm.http://deadspin.com/terrelle-pryor-runs-93-yards-untouched-for-touchdown-s-1453040896

To be fair, the list of guys with an arm as big as Cam - all-time - is pretty freaking short.

[dogwelder]

Tied at 7 at halftime?

 

MORAL VICTORY!

[RIPPA]

This is the way to beat the Broncos.

 

Have the ball for like 12 minutes and get a shit ton of lucky plays

[Death From Above]

LOL Broncos fans booing a tie at the half. Spoiled much?

[JRGoldman]

Broncos fans booing is the worst.

[RIPPA]

Bengals/Jets is reaching "Will Someone Stop the Damn Match" territory

[hammerva]

If geno smith is one thing it consistent. Really good one week and really awful the next.

[BobbyWhioux]

Is the Steeler Offensive Line built on an Indian Burial Ground or something?

 

For years now it seems every Steeler game I see features an injury to the O-Line and #78, Whimper, is currently continuing the tradition.

[RIPPA]

It would be really swell if Denver would stop trying to run the ball.

 

And turning it over

[dogwelder]

I'm not sure what Haslett's done since the bye week (again) but the defense looks SO much better.

[dogwelder]

ALF!!!

[RIPPA]

Yeah - I now hate football and my weekend is ruined

[epwar]

Dallas/Detroit reminds me never to walk away from a game thinking "it's over."  

[Niners Fan in CT]

Falcons might be worse than I thought. Skins/Broncos is fucking strange.

[hammerva]

Weekend? Try to entire week.

[RIPPA]

Weekend? Try to entire week.

 

Yeah - I might have to move

[Death From Above]

Falcons might be worse than I thought. Skins/Broncos is fucking strange.

 

I think what this week is teaching us is that people underestimate how much the Bucs suck, because the Jets and Cardinals both are getting it done.
