2020 NFL season - Week 16 thread

Vance Joseph in the playoffs is as bad as watching McDope with Pats win Super Bowls. Eugh.

Mysterypunter

The one man team titans being shown up badly, some stiffs in this league, Miami heading for the playoffs says it all.

Was just about to whinge about Henry running into traffic too much....drawing all those green bay defenders worked a charm that time.

Tannehill ain't too slow

Tannebaby?

EDIT: Poor from Vrabel there. Clearly out.

BonnieSituation

Too easy for Rodgers. Give him free yards like that he's gonna punish you. And he did.

Jones getting the old lambeau lenience from the refs there.

Mysterypunter

The green bay flags being bailed out again by the officials, offside on the blocked field goal, wasn't, and Jones out of bounds 35 yards before he was called, there was a judge on the sideline, but he didn't see it, must have been the same dude that called the fumble in the Eagles and Cowboys game

Announcers kept going on about how the titans coaches didn't see the foot out of bounds to challenge it, ignoring that the ref was right there looking, too busy admiring him to do his job. Why are they always so reluctant to point out refereeing incompetence on these broadcasts?

Because they are all matey matey with them, Mike Periera is on from New York, stating the obvious, they are like the sky golf commentators, no one ever points out the bad shots. They are all on a gravy train and essentially on money for jam. There are some very good analysts, but it's a handy number. This is over and done with now.

Think the titans were so preoccupied with not jumping offside they let Dillon get the jump on them there. Packers look very good in this weather, be hard to see them stopped by anyone in the NFC.

Funny how quiet it is here these days during patriots games. I was always told all the fans were just really into the Patriots because of the Irish connection with Boston, nothing to do with them winning all round them at all. Maybe it was a more specific Irish connection...

On another note, the espn announcers rambling on interminably about the past and future of the pats is some of the most tedious sports coverage I've ever heard in my life, they haven't actually even acknowledged a play since the middle of the third quarter. It's not like they're providing any insight either, just ****e talk.

I don't think people really post much when their team is losing and are out of the playoffs.

Pats thread is one of the most active on here in all fairness, and has been all season. Late games can be hit and miss at the best of times, people often can’t stay up until 4.30 am for all sorts of reasons.

Why all the Patriots hate lately? I've watched all the games not much point commenting when you expect to lose maybe another few years get used to it like the Bears

I'm not terribly proud of that post I must admit! A flash of bitterness...

But what other patriots hate? I assure you my hatred is reserved for the Packers. The result of years of trauma.

Lately? Now now Paulie. It's gonna take a long time for that to dissipate, if ever.

An absolute meltdown to suit my Browns, Team, Eagles and Colts support. Started with such promise.

8-8 (0.500) on the week leaves me on 154-86 (0.642) on the season.
