So Nick Mullens threw for 411 yards last week but had a lot of turnovers. So he was benched.

Hall has two turnovers but he's 5/10 for 60 yards. Against this shitty Green Bay defense that has been carved up by every team they have faced for a month.

Coaching malpractice.

You know it's bad when the halftime guys don't even have a discussion about it, just all say "bench this clown"

Lol. Koc is going with Mullens now.

What a fucking boob. Just threw away a half and doing what he should have done ALL WEEK.

edit - in my defense, I called out this horrendous QB decision *before* the game started.

In 4 minutes, Mullens has the same amount of yards as Hall had in the half.

It's kind of crazy how these things happen, you just can't predict it.

When will they announce next week's gametimes? Tonight or tomorrow?
Probably tonight.

GB/Chicago is a good candidate for the night game in part because the league doesn’t like to separate games that impact one another, and I think this is the only win-and-in game with a team of national interest that doesn’t impact many other playoff scenarios.

But I also don’t know what the network preference rules are for the final week.

Wonder if the Rams will rest Stafford, Kupp etc. or if they go all out to win so they play the Lions instead of the Cowboys.
I'm interested in how the Ravens play it. They get a bye, so do they want to play it halfway with the starters given that the Steelers have a chance

Seattle maybe should have kicked out of bounds. Bad field position but you get the 2:00 warning time out.
I'm still pissed at Pete for this. You have already wasted a timeout on a shitty challenge (Pete wins like 1 of every 20 challenges), and kick the FG to end at 2:01. If you kick the ball out of the end zone (which Myers is easily capable of), the Steelers have to run a play before the 2 minute warning and with a 3 and out, they could have gotten the ball back with 1:40 or so to go. I mean, the defense was complete and utter dog shit to that point so a 3 and out is probably unlikely, but that has better odds than a fucking onside kick. Pete usually believes in his defense above all else, so it says something that he didn't rely on them to try and get the ball back.

I'm glad I was playing poker most of the time instead of focusing on the game, because I think it would have driven me fucking nuts. The occasional times I glanced up, something shitty happened. This team is garbage and is clearly less than the sum of its parts.
