Foles is a top 2-3 backup, the Eagles can still win a Superbowl with him if they hold on to their seeding. Obviously, their odds took a hit...

Fans also threw shit at Paul Richardson on the last Seahawks TD. Ref saw it and pointed out the guy in the stands.

Doesn't excuse any of the Seahawks behavior. They pull this shit all the time after hard-fought losses, and it really fucking pisses me off.

They’re just still a bit excited from that Trump rally the other night...

So, Pats fans are forced to root for the Ravens.
Just as ready to see BAL lose to improve the chances they're watching the playoffs at home again. A Steelers loss doesn't improve the Pats' chances at homefield all that much, really just buys them margin for error in the other three games.

A Steelers loss here would give the Patriots a one game cushion in case things go sideways tomorrow night, otherwise just take care of business tomorrow night and next week and it won't matter what happens tonight.

Or, what Mystic Merlin said.

The Eagles play @ Giants and the Raiders. They weren't losing both of those and probably going to win both.
Not likely but you never know with the backup QB in there and the general malaise of losing your MVP candidate.

Steelers’ loss puts them in real danger of losing a bye, though.

Colts went for 2 and the win late in the game, made it, then like 5 minutes after the play the refs threw a flag for OPI. It was a legal pick play that was clearly within 1 yard on the LOS.

On Redzone they had already switched to another game then the guy was like, "Wait, switch back to the Bills-Colts game, I guess there's a flag after the play...." Assumed it was excessive celebration or something. And then they call a bogus OPI.

It was bizarre. I've never seen anything like it.
You could hear the ref say... "he was in the endzone" which would be 2 yards and illegal.
Honestly watching it, I thought it was an acceptable call, he definitely went forward then put both hands on the Db covering the intended receiver. If it wasn't late it would have been a pretty standard close call, they tend to call those when you don't even pretend to be running a route.

Look, I don't want anyone hurt, but this is being treated like the Steelers are the first team to ever lose a guy.

on a horrible hit he delivered. Then praise the return guy giving the same type of head first that injured the guy they are memorializing.
