You know what is a really good film that was on BBC?

The Outsiders!

Now is Sixth Sense.

Why is Haley Joe Osmandias able to see dead people?

Wow.

At least the Jaguars made it a football game. NFC game is a blowout.

Yeah, very, very bad time to have a bad game.

Two Major Points:
1. Stopping Pats on the first drive.
2. Taking a knee at the end of the half.

I forget the amount of time-outs they had, but they only needed to go like 20 or 30 yards to get into field goal range. This signaled that their coach did not trust their offense, and they played "not to lose." He was clearly afraid of an interception, AND he was afraid the Pats could actually score. Made no sense: 55 seconds, run the ball, make the Pats use their time-outs, and worse case if you punt with them having under 10 seconds.

Their delay of game penalty was also huge. Would have been in field goal range at least with a new set of downs.

I agree that they should have tried to score before the end of the first half too.

Yeah, I hate to use the "C-word" [Stop that!--Ed.] "Choke."

But they choked. How the hell do you take a delay of game there? I mean, thank you very much. The DIRTY hit on Gronk actually hurt them as well.

They feared playing the Patriots in Foxborough.

Isn't the Super Bowl in Minneapolis this year too?

Has any team ever had home field advantage in the Super Bowl?

It's not the Patriots I take issue with, or watching them in an other Super Bowl. It's an almost-criminal failure of the other organization to pose a competent challenge.

Imma pick the NFC to lose in the Pro Bowl.

The rules state that if you pick a team in the Pro Bowl, you have to watch the game. All of it.

shemp · Post by **shemp** » Wed Jan 24, 2018 4:56 am

Because I am constrained to pick the Pats to lose the Stupor Bowl, I therefore refuse to make a pick!
