I haven't watched much Monday Night Football this season, but I have to say that I actually really like Booger McFarland a lot in these broadcasts. I thought I was going to hate him like the old Tony Siragusa shitshow, but I think he brings a lot of good analysis to the game and he isn't annoying. I'd love for him to join Al and Cris and try to liven up that duo a little bit. (edit: as I said, I haven't watched much MNF... there's a good chance I'm going to start hating him soon)

Witten is horrible though.

Titans should have tried to draw them offsides again after the timeout, taking the delay of game penalty and kicking it if the Texans didn't jump.

I don’t see how Witten can last several years in this role absent serious improvements. He’s boring and says shit like this:

‘There’s a difference between pass rushers and guys who can rush the passer.’

What the fuck?

This team fucking destroyed the Pats. Mariota had all goddamned day to sit back there and pick his spots.

Next time the Pats play Houston will be the end of Brady's career, because he'll be lying dead on the field before the end of the first quarter.

We caught them at the right time -- and they still my get a bye with Pats playing the first week.

They should be favored in every game the rest of the way, with the possible exception of @ Philly week 16 -- and then only if the Eagles are playing for something.

Houston is going to be 13-3 and we'll still have no idea if they're really any good. They've played one team all year that's currently more than a game above 500 and it was in Week 1.

Right, because the Pats have never dealt with and beat the Texans before.

BO'B folds up against BB. bring them on once more if that is what ends up happening.

that said I'll be expecting to lose any road playoff game this year. So the fact we might have to run the table to keep pace with their easy schedule is annoying.

I’m cracking up at Mariota protecting his perfect completion percentage like an NBA player who holds the ball until juuuust after the clock runs out at halftime before releasing a prayer heave.

Witten’s analysis of the Jax situation just did more damage to my brain than anything I’ve ever done in my life.
