Of course they miss the FG.Miami has the ball on Cinn 30, 4th and 3. They try to get them to jump and then don't run a play.
Why not just go for it? Both teams suck, play the game. You're on the 30.
Poor situational football. Didn’t matter.Why did the Saints snap that at 15?
There's a proviso about time left in the half on that Holy Roller rule.Ok, stupid question, but here goes; I thought there was a rule where if you fumbled in the end zone, you had to be the player who recovered thanks to the Raiders with that bush league fumble vs the Chargers?
By NFL rules, if the receiver has completed the catch, he's not considered defenseless.Why isn’t he defenseless, and a shoulder to the head counts too, I think.
Not sure what was the best part of that play; Stabler flinging the ball underhanded down the field or Casper stumbling and bumbling the ball into the end zone while he kicked it in with his feet before recovering it.There's a proviso about time left in the half on that van Eeghan rule.
I thought the same thing; you're 3-11, nut up and go for 2.Kicking the PAT is lame. You’re 3-11. Who cares?
They still got a chance next week. Luckily Jets helped them out this week. Need similar help next week as I believe the Steelers own the tiebreak.I’m pissed for Tennessee.
Casper was the key.Not sure what was the best part of that play; Stabler flinging the ball underhanded down the field or Casper stumbling and bumbling the ball into the end zone while he kicked it in with his feet before recovering it.
No, Titans own it now.They still got a chance next week. Luckily Jets helped them out this week. Need similar help next week as I believe the Steelers own the tiebreak.
Yup. It got flipped with Pitt losing to NYJ. Was other way coming in.No, Titans own it now.
I ran it through the ESPN playoff machine and Oakland would get the 6 seed.Who makes the playoffs if the Raiders/Steelers/Titans finish 8-8? Does it matter if the already eliminated Colts finish 8-8?
Yup. Just said that Tennessee controls their own destiny on RedZone. Hope they can do it for Mike.They still got a chance next week. Luckily Jets helped them out this week. Need similar help next week as I believe the Steelers own the tiebreak.
Never mind! Tenn loses to NFC and Pitt to AFC, so Tenn gets the tiebreak back.
So what you're saying is we're all Bears fans.I ran it through the ESPN playoff machine and Oakland would get the 6 seed.
As a side note, if Chiefs lose tonight the Texans would control their own destiny for the 3 seed. That would put KC in Baltimore's bracket as the 4 seed. If the home teams win on WC weekend, Pats would get Houston and Ravens would get KC.
This was discussed a bit in another thread. But with the Ravens now locked in at the 1, go Bears and Texans.I ran it through the ESPN playoff machine and Oakland would get the 6 seed.

I also think Tenn matches well to knock off KC with their running game.Yup. Just said that Tennessee controls their own destiny on RedZone. Hope they can do it for Mike.

Between the decision not to go for 2 and the decision not to try the long field goal, we have two 3-11 teams proving why they are losers.KICK IT
Works better with DJ Chark.Tajae Sharpe doot doo do doo doo,

When I did it with OAK/PIT/TEN/IND at 8-8, Raiders make the playoffs. When I drop the Colts to 7-9, Titans make the playoffs.I ran it through the ESPN playoff machine and Oakland would get the 6 seed.
So what you're saying is we're all Bears fans.
Yeah I didn't try the Colts at 7-9. Didn't think they'd lose to a Jacksonville team.When I did it with OAK/PIT/TEN/IND at 8-8, Raiders make the playoffs. When I drop the Colts to 7-9, Titans make the playoffs.
It's the Miami miracle in reverse.Dolphins still trying to somehow lose this game.
