"I'm told (Suh) told them: 'I run this defense, I'm going to be here for the next five years, there is no guarantee any of you will be as well. Only a handful of guys are good enough to play with me right now,'" Rapoport said. "He also said the schemes were not good enough, the techniques were not enough and everyone needed to be better, he said 'follow me.'"

And whoever it is, they get to host a playoff game too.
Washington seems like a decent threat to win a home playoff game over a seemingly better wildcard team like MIN or SEA. Like when SEA snuck into the playoffs at I think 7-9 and beat the defending champ Saints.

I really don't understand NFL coaching. Mark Ingram is averaging 8 YPC, and he only has 5 carries in the 3rd quarter. He's by far the best player on that offense. Meanwhile the corpse of Drew Brees has 25 PA.

This is way off topic but this is my first season with Red Zone, and it really is the cure for shitty Sunday regional games. Connecticut has the Giants-Redskins and Jets-Dolphins today, which both suck. Red Zone eliminates that.

End unsolicited advertisement.

A battle for first place in the NFC east and a game featuring the second best team in the AFC is "shitty"???

You need to check you patriots fandom privilege

I wonder how many times Reuben Randle has to cause an interception before everybody realizes he is a terrible football player.

I stand by it. The Jets or Dolphins are pretty far from the second best team's in the AFC, and a 4-6 team easily beating a 5-5 for first place in a down division isn't compelling. At all.

Redzone for all, just have an adblocker working and ignore/close the warning that you need to subscribe after 10 seconds.

Nervous. I hope Jeremy Lane is starting in the place of Cary Williams, otherwise I think Williams gets picked on all day.

Must win for the Seahawks.
Seahawks inactives: WR Paul Richardson, CB Tye Smith, RB Marshawn Lynch, CB Cary Williams, LB Eric Pinkins, center Drew Nowak, G/C Kristjan Sokoli.

Red Zone's one of those things that's awesome when you first see it, but once you get past the gee, whiz factor it's a lot less compelling--you miss the pacing and drama of actual games.

Logan Mankins with an unsportsmanlike penalty on a missed field goal. You'd think Polian was still running the Colts

You're one of those who actually prefer listening to an entire Beethoven or Mahler symphony as opposed to the wonderful Reader's Digest Famous Classical melodies collections.... sheesh....

Chuck Pagano with a bad challenge, looks like the pass hit the ground to me

Edit: And the ref just screwed up the announcement, initially confirming the call, then reversed it correctly as incomplete.

Is Strength of Victory calculated by opponents's end year winning percentage or winning percentage at the time the teams played?

I can't figure out who would have the tiebreak between Pats and Bengals if Pats lose, say, tonight and to Jets. Losing tonight and Houston would give it to Cincy

End of the season.

Cincy is going to have the tiebreaker on the Pats, unless the Pats lose to the Eagles.
