2013 NFL Season Thread

[gunnar hendershow]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the Atlanta Falcons are the first team eliminated from playoff contention in the 2013 NFL season.

I'm sure Srar is popping champagne right now to bask in Midget's further demise.

Also the Texans are dealing with the Curse of Vanilla Ice.

Save the bubbly, Srar. Save it for the draft, when the Falcons decide to draft seven running backs, because that will be when I beat myself even more senseless against a random flat* object.

*Object may change to something sharp without notice.

A bunch of Packers players apparently didn't know there wasnt a second OT period and thought they were going to keep playing :lol:

I mean seriously after how big the McNabb thing got blown up how the hell do you not know that??? Stupid Packers are still stupid

As a casual fan who enjoys the sport but doesn't actually follow it that closely I didn't realise that OT wasn't sudden death When/why did it all change?

[Meacon Keaton]

Because people kept bitching when a team won the coin toss, drove down the field and kicked a field goal.

The Vikings/Saints NFC title game, in particular, was a big reason why the OT rules changed.

I remember watching that and being so happy Favre lost.

[Thrilla]

Predictions for tonight's games anyone? I going for the Lions to squeak out a victory over Green Bay, Cowboys to smash the Raiders and the Steelers to win in Baltimore.

[The Buscher]

-Green Bay (I think Detroit has a better team especially with no Rodgers, but they seem to be cursed on Thanksgiving so I'll go with history)

-Dallas (crappy game. I hate how one of the Lions or Cowboys have to host an AFC team every year so the game can be on CBS)

-Baltimore (without bothering to look it up it feels like these two teams rarely sweep a season series against each other)

[Meacon Keaton]

I'll say Detroit, I guess. No Rodgers means I don't think they're capable of keeping up should the Lions put up big numbers which I think may happen today.

I'll go with Dallas. Is McGloin starting for Oakland today? If so, that's why.

Ugh, I'm not even going to watch the nightcap. Both fanbases are bandwagon jerks who think they're better than everyone because they jumped on the bandwagon while other people stayed with their teams. Fuck em both! They'll tie!

[Your Mom]

I am going to pull a Vince McMahon for the first game and say I would be happy to see both Detroit and Green Bay spontaneously combust

[Meacon Keaton]

Detroit/Green Bay ends in a no contest via a Chicago and Minnesota run-in.

[gunnar hendershow]

Minnesota! What the hell are they doing here? Their season is over!

[Mick]

There is no doubt in my mind that God hates the Lions.

[gunnar hendershow]

God hates America for making us watch the Lions every Thanksgiving.

[Berober]

It feels so damn good to have both Megatron and Bush in the Ron Dayne League

Total Yards:
Green Bay 57

Detroit 488

What? :|

[Lineker]

HEY DAN REPLY TO YOUR PM'S!!

On a side note - I love Sky's Thanksgiving coverage!

[gunnar hendershow]

We were still on EWB III the last time Detroit won on Thanksgiving.

[The Buscher]

The Packers just look like a horrible ball club.

[Dan]

Detroit now have 500 yards more than GB.

[HC]

The Packers just look like a horrible ball club.

Being without your MVP-caliber QB tends to do that...

We were in perfect position to take the division before Rodgers went down. We'll be back next year. Hope Detroit or Chicago enjoys their Wild Card round exit.
