The NFL Thread

Kearse's catch reminds me of this classic moment:

Damn it.

I don't give the slightest damn about any sports in the slightest, but something incredibly crazy must have happened because my family is losing their fucking mind right now.

And here I am wondering why people get so maniacally obsessed with grown men throwing a ball.

Man, those last few seconds were insane. 28-24, Patriots.

Well, that was the work of Tzeentch or some shit.

I never took Seahawks fans seriously when they complained about their offensive coordinator...until today that is.

All I can say is that the decision to pass on the opponents 3 yard line when you have Marshawn Lynch (who had run for 100+ yards) in the backfield is one that should honestly cost someone their job.

@frostav: damage is measured in yards, the offensive linemen are the tanks, the QB is a wizard, the running back is melee DPS, and the receivers are ranged DPS. play occurs same turn instead of one after another.

basically what happened is that butler rolled a natural 20 on a wisdom check and was able to perform the counter spell to wilson's magic missile so effectively that the seahawk's turn ended, right when they had the patriots at 1hp

I am absolutely furious right now. Shitty year for football, all around.

Leave it to the Browns to draw some attention away from the Super Bowl. Remember when they were 6-3 and leading the AFC North?

My overly late reaction: FUCK.

Now I get to spend the next few months listening to all the Pats fans in the Northeast say "We're the greatest!" and "We're number one!" for the next five months in a horrible Boston accent.

Somebody please deafen me.

They're number one because they fucking cheated, that's what. I don't intend to piss off any Pats fans here, but that's what's happened, and they're being rewarded because of one stupid decision.

How did the Patriots cheated? I watched most of the first half of the game and saw the end bit but I don't remember any blatant unfair calls. I will say that if the Seahawks did not give the Patriots 10 penalty years they could have possibly won the game.

After that very lucky catch it seemed like the Seahawks just lost it.

I think he's talking about Deflategate :P

Ballghazi is the dumbest controversy

like, one ball under 2psi, mathematically explainable with basic physics of hot and cold air, is going to account for 44 points. And those balls are not used by Indy so it definitely accounts for only one touchdown

I wish people would rub two brain cells together before accepting media outrage more often. This is why measles is back in America

I'm more or less with you. Admittedly I haven't been following the case too closely, but it feels to me that if the Patriots are found guilty of breaking the rules, the punishment should be a low-to-mid round draft pick, depending on how far up this went.

Let the offseason begin.

Bills win this trade if Alonso doesn't bounce back

Eagles win the trade if he does

Yes, this is a cop-out answer

Pinch me, I'm dreaming, it's all a bad dream, we didn't just trade our only dependable offensive piece to the Bills.

Sorry for Double Post.

MJD has called it a career after 9 years in the league.

It's better this way. Watching him plod along in Oakland hurt my heart.

Free agency news:

• Randall Cobb returns to the Packers on a 4-year, $40M deal. Backup QB Tolzien will also return.
• Ndamukong Suh will likely to go to the Miami Dolphins on a five-year, $110M deal
• Byron Maxwell and Frank Gore appear to be going to Philly.

frank gore to the eagles :( :( :( :(
