  1. Well that is something I've never seen before.
  2. The Jets defense has 0 interceptions this season, which is the fewest ever in a 15 game span.
  3. Panthers win, which greatly increases the chance that the week 18 Bucs-Panthers game means something (if Panthers win and Bucs lose next week the Panthers still clinch), so I would guess that game gets flexed to the primetime game.
  4. Jaxson Dart's stat line today: 7-13, 33 yards, 1 INT, 5 sacks for 20 yards. So, 13 net yards with an INT.
  5. He's a huge Packer fan and podcaster, but gotta tip the cap to the guy for cutting together that short after what I'm sure was one of the more devastating losses in franchise history.
  6. I have a feeling Caleb will be getting plenty of love from the national media this week.
  7. Caleb Williams needs to average 220 yards passing per game the last two games to set the Bears' franchise record for passing yards in a season. He's at 3400 right now, 3838 is the high mark.
  8. Why is Puka trying to speed run Antonio Brown's career?
  9. Caleb Williams 242 yard passing day vaults him into #10 all time in Bears career passing yards, passing Justin Fields.
  10. The Panthers were swept by the Saints this season. They are also still tied for a playoff spot in the NFC South.
  11. If the Bears win out, they will be at worst the 2 seed, and would need just the winner of next week's Rams-Seahawks game to drop 1 of their other 3 games to get the 1 seed.
  12. Both sacks today involved Garrett going through essentially untouched by Trapilo. It's Garrett, but you need to at least get one bump on him.
  13. I wager if he throws the ball at that point it's not ruled as forward progress stopped.
  14. The fan base seems to have suddenly gone nuts after the last few weeks. They just went 3-1 in a stretch where 2-2 would have been considered a win for the franchise, and the loss was on a last second play that was there. Caleb continues to throw the ball in places where it won't result in a pick, and is releasing the ball in time and quickly enough to avoid almost any sacks. It's much preferable to the alternative of taking 2-3 extra sacks per game just to keep the completion % up.
  15. It was pretty obvious they were going to go for 2 there had they scored. They weren't rushed on the 4th down play, they went for the TD on a play where the Packers were all in defending the run. It just didn't work. Good plays don't work all the time.
  16. Last call was solid. 4th and 1 with 14 seconds left, they need a TD. If they get the first there they'll have maybe 7 seconds left and there'll be 8 defenders in the end zone. The play was there, Caleb tossed it a touch late and a touch underthrown. As for why they let so much time come off the clock there, they wanted to make sure there wasn't any time left for the Packers after a score. Again, logic was there, what they were doing made sense.
  17. Is Lamar Jackson broken now?
  18. 2 of the last 3 years, Alabama has been the beneficiary of some very shady logic by the selection committee. The year they didn't, they cried foul and then lost to a terrible Michigan team in a bowl.
  19. I think this game is largely a must-win for GB, more so than the Bears, just because due to the current standings the Bears splitting the two GB games keeps the Bears in first with 3 games left, 2 at home, with both teams having similar closing schedules. If the Bears win this game, they're effectively 2 games up with 4 to play, 3 at home. If the Packers win this game, they're 1 game up with 4 to play, 1 at home, and still go to Chicago.
  20. That's just because the committee is a worthless group of lying hucksters trying to shill for the SEC time and time again. Once more, Alabama undeservingly gets the benefit of the doubt despite doing nothing to earn it, and it doesn't matter how many teams make up the playoffs.
  21. Neither offense is showing much today. Georgia has taken advantage of two turnovers.
  22. Here's what I think WILL happen: - If Duke wins tonight, JMU and Tulane will get into the CFP, and the committee will put Miami in so there is ACC representation. If Virginia wins, it'll be Virgina and Tulane with ND getting in. - Georgia will get the 2 seed with a win, and the OSU-Indiana loser will get the 4 seed. - If Georgia blows this, the committee will move Bama all the way up to the 4 seed because reasons. Here's what I think SHOULD happen: - Indiana-Ohio State should be 1-2 regardless of tonight's result. - ND and Miami are the best 2 loss teams by most empirical ratings, they should both get in. - Tulane and JMU are better than either team in the ACC championship, so they should both get in no matter what the result of that game is. - Georgia and Texas Tech should get the other byes due to winning conferences, but I think TT is the better team and should be #3. - Oregon, Texas A&M and Ole Miss should be locks. Last spot should be up for discussion between OK, Bama, Vandy and Texas. 4 teams should be plenty fair for the conference.
  23. I remain convinced that the SEC has a bunch of good teams, but no great teams. I hate that the committee somehow made this about ND/Miami and not 6 SEC teams that are varying levels of good. I have a feeling that if Duke wins, they'll put Miami in so there's an ACC team in the playoff. If Virginia wins, they'll put ND in. What I'd like to see is having ND and Miami both in, 3 B1G teams and TT with byes, Tulane and JMU in (I think they're both better options than Virginia too). 4 spots left for the SEC, and you could easily say A&M, Georgia and Ole Miss belong, and then choose your 4th between Bama, OK, TX, and Vandy (obv if Bama wins the convo is simple)
