The end of this Seattle Cardinals game is absolutely unbelievable... This game continues to amaze me

[cowboy_from_hell 2,390]

Vikes O line upgraded to pitiful today. Overall the game was awful. In 5 consecutive possessions between the 2 teams there were 5 turnovers. That bye hurt us a little bit I think. 

Detroit find a way and are quietly coming. What's with the Hawks Cards game? A 6 all tie? I heard that there is a saying in the league that there are 3 good kickers 3 bad Kickers and the rest are average.

I believe Washington are the 'road' team for their game against Cincinnati in London ... 1 point only on offer this week.

I've avoided commenting for a few days, but seriously... Who throws into 3 man coverage to their shortest receiver???? And then in to double coverage just to continue good form until throwing it into the end zone where there was only giants players...

 

I think I'm going to go back to supporting the St. Louis Rams and watch their games...

Interesting week of tipping...

Have a feeling the Bills could get the Pats at home, same as the Browns (surely their due) against the Jets. Carloina -2.5 favour at home against the Cards ? I know Arizona haven't been setting the world on fire but the Panther are 1-5

Fisher is 5 losses away from holding the record for most losses ever by an NFL coach.

Yup. A shoe in for getting it this year unless they sack him.

Erghhhhh what a terrible game. But with those helmets I expect nothing but.  They must be embarrassed to be seen in them.

Keep forgetting to do my tips the last few weeks. Not a great season as a bears fan. They've stripped the roster to build through the draft with a defensive focus and almost every starter on the defense has been injured and half the offense has too. A total mess. The one highlight was the Hoyer looked was doing a fantastic job keeping the Bears in games without winning to facilitate a nice tank job and now he's injured, Cutler comes back to try and save his job and the Bears might just be dumb enough to keep him.

[JV7 2,339]

@Macca a shootout in Atlanta... I thought both our defenses were very ordinary, was one of those games whoevers offense got the ball last wins, albeit Green Bay had a chance but only with 31 seconds. 

[Macca 16,174]

With a likely Vikings win tomorrow both Minnesota & Dallas are creating real separation from the other teams in their respective divisions ... Atlanta are 2 games clear in the NFC South whilst the NFC West is up for grabs. 

9 wins might get a wild-card in the NFC so there's hope for any number of teams - outside of the clear-cut division leaders, there are no fewer than 10 teams sitting on 3 or 4 wins in the NFC.

Over in the AFC the Pats keep marching on whilst 3 teams from the AFC West are in a position to reach the playoffs (Broncos, KC, Raiders)  Pittsburgh needs Roethlisberger back asap whilst Houston could be good enough to win the AFC South.  But who knows?

There's been a lot of close games - and that will almost certainly continue.

 

Edit: And true to form my predicted win for the Vikes falls flat.  The NFC North is now up for grabs as well.  The Bears & Cutler were very good today.

Vikes were putrid and Chicago were pretty solid. Our line will stop the vikes from challenging this year. Bradford keeps getting hit and I think there is enough film for teams to diagnose the strong defense we have. As @Macca said a win today wouldve given us some separation in the division and the NFC. We got Detroit next and they are looking real good. 

 

[Gorgoroth 12,369]

Good to see the cards ran the Panthers into form for our game this week.

Get on the Panthers for a away win this week!

[Macca 16,174]

2 points up for grabs this week ... good luck.

Surely one of us has to get 3 right... no one has scored since round 1 I think...

Atlanta (not confident, TB & Winiston have the wood over us winning the last 3)

Wow. Did not know that. TB are funny, in patches they look great then really poor.

[Clintosaurus 6,798]

Falcons, Cowboys, Saints. Denver is a brave pick.

Tipping against the vikes. Our offensive coordinator just quit. Seems we are trying to make it hard on ourselves.
