Jacksonville should be banned from ever having games not on Sunday afternoon. I can't even imagine a more boring team.

What awful matchups this week. One decent non-Pats game to watch...ugh

Houston @ Chicago is going to be epic enough to make up for all of the horrible games this week. Major implications for the Pats, too.

How was that Luck TD not reviewed upstairs? Guess the refs are already back in the Colts pocket.

edit: Looked like a TD but any scoring play that was close has been reviewed this year. No way they decided that quickly it was definitive.

What a bizarre thing. Aren't ALL scoring plays supposed to be reviewed?

No, it is not necessarily reviewed by an official on the field. Two steps occur:

1.) The booth reviews the scoring or change-of-possession play.
2.) If the booth concludes that there's a question as to whether the call on the field was correct, they call for an official to go under the hood.

It's not any different than any potentially reviewable play inside of two minutes, in that sense. The purpose of the rule is to take coach's challenges out of the equation for scoring and change of possession plays, not to mandate review of all of them under the hood.

EVERY break goind Indy's way

[cshea]

Reminds me of the Bill Polian days. Jeez.

[tims4wins]

This lateral is gonna go against them too. Ha.

On a side note...first pressure on Luck leads to a REALLY bad decision

[SemperFidelisSox]

EVERY break goind Indy's way

Except bone marrow biopsy results.

[tims4wins]

Jax is so poorly coached. Why wait 10 seconds to call the timeout?

edit: they deserve to miss this now

[BigSoxFan]

This Jaguars team is just...awful.

[Mystic Merlin]

If the Patriots lost to the Jaguars, I think I'd vomit all over myself. Literally.

Yes exactly and given that only one official signaled TD and Luck clearly didn't end up in the end-zone it is beyond belief that the play was not reviewed. I've only seen one angle that appeared to show the ball cross the goal line and it would have been for about 1/10th of a second. It is simply inexcusable not to take a closer look at that play.

[tims4wins]

This Jaguars team is just...awful.

And yet you just KNOW they will give the Pats a game. It's inevitable.

[BigSoxFan]

Butler!

[Mystic Merlin]

What a miserable decision and throw.

[Turrable]

I love crappy quarterbacks. I have the game on mute while writing college essays and I look up for like 2 seconds, which is naturally enough time to see Gabbert throw a pick-6.

[Turrable]

Look up for 2 more seconds: sacked for loss of 11.

[jk333]

1.5 years and its already clear that he's a bust.

[ypioca]

Jacksonville is just hideous.

[ypioca]

Lucky that wasn't picked off.

[jsinger121]

Jacksonville is just hideous.

Worst team by far in the league.

[Ferm Sheller]

Is it just me or has every Thursday night NFL game this year but Steelers/Titans absolutely sucked?

[jk333]

Worst team by far in the league.

Have you seen the Chiefs this year?

I don't disagree - they are horrid; but the Chiefs can compete.

[jsinger121]

The Chiefs are bad but they have talent on defense. The Chiefs need a QB badly and they are also so poorly coached. The Jags have very little talent on either side of the ball.

[Turrable]

Some white guys can pull of the shaved head look and Andrew Luck is definitely not one of them.

Agreed; the Chiefs are loaded on defense. (however, with horrible results this year) Watching the Jags without MJD, makes you wonder what MJD could do on a real team.

[Turrable]

Nice knowin' ya Blaine

[ypioca]

Jags players get genuinely shocked every time they get a flag.

[BigSoxFan]

I know Gabbert is terrible but I've been really surprised by how bad Blackmon is.

[estreetfan]

Did the ghost of John Candy invade Andrew Luck's voice?

[saintnick912]

Seymour is inactive. That is all.

[Turrable]

So my brother just told me this was for Pagano and now I feel like a dick

[CaptainLaddie]

The joke that will live forever.

[abty]

Is it possible for the eagles and cowboys to both lose? Say yes.

[Spacemans Bong]

I'm seriously considering watching the CFL playoffs given they'll be on TV here versus trying to find decent streams for such a crappy slate of games.

[swiftaw]

Chris Ivory, nice TD run.

[Reverend]

So my brother just told me this was for Pagano and now I feel like a dick

HaHa! You're a dick.

[phragle]

SANCHEZ!

[TheShynessClinic]

SANCHEZ X2!

[shawnrbu]

What a play by Romo.

[johnmd20]

I love this Jets team. They are delicious.

[SoxFanInPdx]

This Rams/Niners game has been one hard-hitting, chippy game.

[Ed Hillel]

The Jets season is pretty much over now.

[Al Zarilla]

Couldn't happen to a nicer team.

[Al Zarilla]

This Rams/Niners game has been one hard-hitting, chippy game.

You never know. Even before Alex Smith got hurt, this looked like the Rams' game. Niners not dead yet.

[54thMA]

Looks like Pete the poodle will get his revenge on both of his former NFL teams, bet he's pumped and jacked over that.

And after the game, Rex will tell the NY media he still believes in Sanchez and thinks the Jets will make the playoffs.

[Briz]

Nice td throw by Tate!
