Tiki Barber using the term "we" when talking about the Giants while working the game on Fox.

Why would the Jets spike that and leave time on the clock? He makes the kick, but wait, penalty. No wait, no penalty. NFL refs. Fucking idiots.
I could not believe they spiked it there. The only thing more shocking is that they didn't miss the kick and allow a FG drive the other way. Usually shit like that is punished in hilarious fashion by the football gods.

If we can't even cover Devin Funchess and Fozzy Whitaker, I have no idea how we're going to cover Mike Evans.

I'm honestly terrified thinking about what's gonna happen when Atlanta comes to down. They lost to Buffalo today, but apparently Jones was out most of the game. If he's back, and Gilmore's still struggling with zone defenses, it'll be a Tobe Hooper production. You know they already want blood.

FG attempt by Koo at the end of the half. He nails it but he got iced. Thankfully he hit the second one, too.

I've calmed down now after taking my kids to buy some pumpkins.

On the good side the Jets kicked the Jaguars ass up and down the field and are undefeated at home. On the bad side, they would have lost the game if a Jags receiver would have made a catch I could make.

Clearly, they won’t.

Maybe the D will improve over the next 2-3 months, but until that happens, the Pats are going to have to win some shootouts. 30+ points against two of the league’s better defenses (HOU last week, CAR today) suggests the offense is up to the challenge.

Denver's defense is still absolutely stellar. It's incredible watching the way they make you earn every single yard.

Carr hurt. Wow. And he got horse-collared...grabbed his lower back.

This Denver game may end up delayed; we're getting tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings out here.

Hands to the face call against San Diego on their own 5. It was a sack on third down, so Phi would have had to kick. Now they have first and goal. Hands to the face seems to be the call de jour today.

When you have a shitty fake punt ready to go against Denver inside your own 20 on 4th and 11, you just have to call it.

Only Raiders get called for taunting on a stuffed attempted fake punt down 2 scores

What I don't get is even if they convert, do they really think they're going to march down the field with EJ Manuel? Why not punt and see if you can play for field position, limiting the number of plays you're expecting him to execute against the Denver defense?

Del Rio gonna Del Rio, I guess.

That looked like King pulled a Patrick Chung and did that on his own. I'm not sure if that makes it better or worse.

Ha, Del Rio knew they'd miss the field goal the entire time!

PI on both the offense and the defense on the same play. I don't know if I've ever seen that before. The call against the Giants was bad.

Lynch chews up weak defensive lines but has zero ability to shake bigger, faster lines.

And with that he just got laid out blocking for Manuel.

Odell on the ground, writhing like a soccer player who is dying. Goes off for a play and then he's back in the game, jogging with ease. He's great.

Yeah, I mean...wow. Talk about being afraid of the hit. That's twice on this drive they've dropped passes in fear of getting hit. League's gonna take notice that to beat the Raiders you have to rattle their receivers.

@H78

Looked like a clear headshot to me. (Or is this something to do with the discussion about hands to the face that I wasn't involved in at all except for reading it?)

Oh, no, I was genuinely asking. I wasn't sure; I thought his helmet grazed the side of the receiver's but I wasn't sure. He may have made solid contact.
