2014 NFL Season

[The Buscher]

Well, thanks to Luck's non-existent performance I've managed to knock off a team with a perfect record in my finals.

And in another league thanks to Russell Wilson's game I'm now down by 8 points headed into MNF. I do have CJ Anderson though and he has nobody else, so I SHOULD be safe but who knows.

I would have posted in this thread about the game but I was too busy writing Marshawn Lynch's name in my notebook along with little hearts and the word "yeah" a lot.

I hate him now. He was supposed to get 175 yards

[The Buscher]

I know a bunch of Pats fans panicking about how the team just doesn't look the same, they're worried about Brady, etc. I swear this happens every year. The Pats will get it together and finish 12-4 or something and get a first round bye like always, and then their fans will be all like "we're awesome! never had a doubt!" etc.

Just thought I'd dig that one up. I hate it when I'm right.

Due to losing a bet with Skip Bayless over who would win the NFC East, Stephen A. Smith had to wear a shirt that said "I Love Jerry Jones" on the front and "How `Bout Dem Cowboys????" on the back, along with a Cowboys cap, on FIRST TAKE this morning. (Actually, the cap was Stephen A.'s idea when they made the bet)

I love seeing haters get their comeuppance.

What bet did you lose where you had to watch First Take?

[jrhodes]

And when was the bet made? Because no-one with a lick of sense had the Cowboys winning the East at the start of the season.

[GhostMachine]

Not sure exactly when the bet was made, but it was recent. Not at the beginning of the season.

[ThaBoss18]

I think they made it after Dallas beat Seattle and Stephen A Smith lost the first Cowboys bet

[Your Mom]

Yeah I saw someone tweet that Skip said the Redskins were going to win when the season started and RGIII was going to be great again. So I mean it's not like Skip is a master at seeing the future

[Plubby]

That's more than likely Skip sticking to his RG3 > Luck grandstanding he made, two years after that was proven wrong.

[DMN in the House]

Yeah, Skip had Washington as his winners on Twitter, then tried to claim he had Dallas, only to get called on it on Twitter.

Mildly amusing. More so than First Take. If it wasn't for the live games, I wouldn't miss having cable anymore.

[gunnar hendershow]

So let's go Chiefs then.

Watching First Take? That was your First misTake! [/ghostmachine]

Don't really see anybody other than the Pats coming out of the AFC.

[DFF]

Pats vs Hawks or Packers for the SuperBowl then it seems.

Surprised they're not showing Packers/Lions seeing as that could conceivably be the difference in being the 1 or 6 seed.

[Thrilla]

Yeah, I'll be streaming Packers/Lions if those are the options.

I need Packers, Seahawks and Bengals all to win to win some money on my divisional winners bet.

[DFF]

Surprised they're not showing Packers/Lions seeing as that could conceivably be the difference in being the 1 or 6 seed.

Sky has always preferred win-and-in/lose-and-go-home games, so Panthers/Falcons makes sense. Also, the Packers are destroying everyone at Lambeau at the moment - it'd be more entertaining to (hopefully) watch a shootout between two weaker teams than a one side mauling.
