  • Holy crap, make it 34-0. NE looks like they're letting the clock run out, then goes deep on the last play of the half, TD Branch.

    Belichick is really a punk.

    • San Fran is trashing Seattle, as well and New Orleans has a lead on St. Louis. Yeah, we might be looking at a 7-9 playoff team in a couple weeks.

        With NE's defense this year, no lead is enough.

        • They were showing the NE-Chicago game, but after the start of the second half they switched to Miami-Jets saying they were going to switch to a more competitive game, hahah.

              • The downs in the Redskins-Buccaneers game were not messed up. The Fox announcers screwed up.


                So relax, Reismark.

                • The play that the officials claimed resulted in a first and goal wasn't even close to being a first down. The receiver was tackled a yard shy based on where the prior spot was and the officials gave the Redskins first down because the marker was placed incorrectly. It's in the comments in the very article you quoted.

                  Fifth down.

                      I'm probably messing up here, but doesn't the article say the field was correct and the announcers were confused?

                      • Yes, and then comments in the articles and pictures of the action show very clearly how the official markers (chains and orange arrows) were messed up, thus granting the Redskins a first and goal where they shouldn't have had it.

                          I'm a Redskins fan, and I'm leaning toward agreeing with you. I suspect the officials were trying to rationalize their mistake after the fact.

                          That said, Orakpo was nearly decapitated on the Bucs go ahead TD, and had he not been, he surely would have sacked Freeman before the play had gotten off. The refs no-call on that "holding" was pretty despicable.

                            As diehard of a 49ers fan as I am, I admit I am embarrassed when I see us in the "NFC teams in the hunt graphic" at 5-8.

                            • The high-scoring teams of the week... Arizona Cardinals (43 points), San Francisco 49ers (40), and Jacksonville Jaguars (38)... who woulda thunk it?
