Go Raiders 2-9 > @KC 10-1 (-13 ). Yeah, right.
Good luck, Jasmine, whether you're rooting for a win or a loss.

[O Really]

I don't know anything about it, but I'd guess his continued defence of his horrible decisions, or lack thereof, at the end of the game probably sealed his fate. Every "expert" in the world as well as every fan said he was awful. Woulda been better to just say "oops" and get off the podium.

... That and a new HC are the off-season priorities. I'm lobbying for the Detroit OC.

... Chicago wants Eberflus' head on a Thanksgiving platter.

Dang, that's some neoplacebo mojo you're working.

The OC? Sure, that'll fix things.

The OC? Sure, that'll fix things.

Could he be any worse? :lolno:

Hopefully he knows how to read a clock.

I figured he shared responsibility. EVERYONE knew what was going on other than the coaches and QB.

"Coach, thirty seconds on the game clock"......<crickets>....

You heard it here first.

Bears coaching candidates: Could Lions OC Ben Johnson be Matt Eberflus' replacement?

He knows all their secrets.

The Chiefs are the luckiest team I the league.

The Raiders always find a way to break my heart. :angry-banghead:

As a UNC alum, I feel your pain.

I didn't think I'd see the game because we don't subscribe to Amazon TV, but it turns out you could watch it with any Amazon account even if you don't have Prime. Based on one experience, I'd say Amazon isn't ready for Prime Time. The announcers were all awful - I know Al Michaels is a legend at least in his own mind, but he was bad today. One of them called the Raiders "Oakland" twice, and they frequently seemed confused with ref's calls and play descriptions. Anyway, it was fluke ending that couldn't have happened for anyone but the Swifties.

Speaking of Swifties, Jasmine, given your appreciation of womens' sports, does it make you feel a little lighter for Mahomes that he and wife Brittany own half the KC Current and were instrumental in getting their new stadium built? I didn't know that until recently.

Aidan O'Connell played better than Mahomes. LV rushing was better, too.

You know when teams kick the winning FG on 3rd down just in case something goes wrong? Well . . . :crybaby: 0-2 for the week. :thumbdown:

[O Really]

LV kicker missed three. Bet he wishes he'd had a chance to redeem himself with a last second. Win.

Or, he's glad that he didn't also miss the game winner. Either way, he'll be gone next season, if not sooner.

I'm 0-1 so far.

Iggles 3 point underdogs? No respect. Philly folk don't like being disrespected.

[GoCubsGo]

Brutal.

You're rooting for the Iggles then?

3 points is basically the home field advantage, no disrespect in that. Another difference:

Key injuries

Eagles: Philadelphia lost the heart of the team when DE Brandon Graham announced after last week's game that he was out for the season with a torn triceps. He said previously this would be his final season. Graham has 3 1/2 sacks this season, his 15th with the Eagles. ... CB Darius Slay (concussion) has been ruled out for this weekend and WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) is questionable.

Ravens: Star LB Roquan Smith (hamstring) did not play against the Chargers, but he was back at practice this week.

Ravens' edge. More "Stats and stuff" at the link.

That went downhill fast. It never snows in SF.
The Bills 4th TD is :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: Highlight reels everywhere.
Josh Allen, early in the 4th: passing (2), rushing and receiving TDs. Last done 2022 & 2005.

Underdogs, pfffft!
Well, if you were sitting at Geno's in South Philly eating your cheesesteak, properly ordered "wit", and perhaps a glass of wooder to warsh it down wit, you would notice that "Iggles" is the correct pronunciation in native Phulladelphan.
