The Lions have a receiver named
Amon-Ra St Brown
Best. Name. Ever.
His brother plays for the Packers - Equanimious St Brown.
Their father thought they'd stand out more in pro sport if they had distinctive names. Can't say he's wrong.
At least i can say Amon-Ra

Scary injury to Teddy Bridgewater.
I know it's talked about a lot in rugby but the injuries in NFL seem to get worse and worse with these athletes bigger and faster. The collisions are insane with players flying in at all sorts of angles with no regard for their bodies. I'd like to see the stats because it feels like injuries are rising despite the rules changing to protect against it.

it's been said a heap, but the game would be safer without the pads

And without helmets!
Was almost last man standing for Tampa.

The Saints have shown the formula to beat Brady. Have excellent shutdown corners that stop him from throwing quick passes and an elite front four that can produce pressure without having to blitz.
I know the bucs had some injuries but that Saints pass defence is elite.

AFC is a shitfight
Every single division is up for grabs. In 2 i think every team can win and every team can come last, and in the other 2 it's between 3 teams
NFC a bit more straight forward for the winners, but a few teams in contention for WC spots.
Best season ever?

@mariner4life NFC race probably lost a couple of wildcard contenders today - the best Seahawks can finish now is 8-9 meanwhile Washington now have to turn around and play at Dallas in 5 days.

Only three teams in the AFC have a losing record. This season is really living up to the any given Sunday mantra.

God teh Titans have just fallen in a hole. O-line is cooked. Henry gone. They are just a shadow of the team from teh start of the year. Niners are all over them and this should get ugly on the scoreboard if Jimmy G can just be adequate (that pick in teh EZ was a terrible option)
-
@mariner4life agree, this could get ugly
-
lol @ the Niners
Titans had one offensive play, chuck it to AJ Brown. And they get the W

... and one hella defensive play to pick off in teh end zone.
No idea at all how they got that win. Wow. Well done.
NFL is such great fun this year, I'm loving ir more than most of the rugby I've watched. Very few dud games on

Who was picking the Lions to thrash the Cardinals?
Kliff Kingsbury is now 5-8 in December and 0-4 in games that would clinch a playoff spot.
Make that 5-9 and 0-5...

Broncos paying the price for having the most boring, risk-free offence in the league. Fangio has to go, and we need some sort of spark at QB.

Elway should call Russell Wilson
