Who was Rodgers throwing to there?

Edited December 1 by UKBillFan

[Unforgiven]

I really hope the jets bring back rodgers next year

I don't know about season ending but I'd definitely suspend Al-Shaair in the 2-4 game range.

Amazing how these kickers can nail it from 50+ but shank the 20 yard chip shot

 

It's like the highly congested 3 pointer's in the NBA from way out, but can't make free throws.

Yes. We are trying to make the game safer. 

Completely different play.. Brady was scrambling and not actively sliding. Also the league had not changed the rules at that point. Clearly in today’s NFL the defense knows that play is unacceptable! 

[UKBillFan]

I think the Bengals were unlucky there - looked like the Steelers D-lineman moved first.

[HappyDays]

Wow Pittsburgh just jumped Offside on 4th and 1 but the officials called false start on Cincy... I'm rooting for Cincy to lose but that's a joke. This stuff needs to be reviewable. Takes 10 seconds to watch the slow motion replay.

yea, the dude gronked a player with his brace to the chin of a defenseless player who had given himself up. Both a different era but also a legitimately very dirty hit in any era.

Levis is infuriating - that was a beautiful throw so it shows what he can do. But he makes so many boneheaded throws too.

 

TD Titans.

Except Kiko didn't get in a fight afterwards and didn't taunt the fans

[BuffaloBillyG]

Levis reminds me a bit of JP Losman. 

 

Not a great QB. Not good at reading a defense. Bonehead plays. But boy does he throw a pretty and accurate deep ball.

Actually no. Brady was barely beginning his slide and was upright. A legal if brutal hit but not dirty.

Rooney's have owned NFL refs for 50+ years

The Vikings are really fading this year. They look pretty bleh

I'd argue the difference is Alonso seemed to start the tackle before Flacco began the slide - he didn't have a chance ot change trajectory. Whereas Al-Shaair launched himself at Lawrence after he started to go to the ground.

[Amaru523]

After a mostly disastrous 1st half for the Seahawks, to only be down 21-16 is kind of amazing.

Koo had a couple amazing weeks in fantasy for me, wonder what happened. 

Kickers are bigger voodoo than goalies in hockey now.

The Jets didn't ruin Sam Darnold. He just isn't very good.
