What is up with Alex's goofy look there?

He saw the Lions were dropping into coverage and chuckled because he knew he had a month to throw.

 

[WedgeX]

Fuck yeah Tulloch!

 

[Elfforkusu]

Stop passing, Niners.

 

[brentech]

Whoa, Kyle Williams having a fit

 

[Doorman]

LOL at the ref escape there.

 

[Plinko]

What was that, SF?

 

[bionic77]

I might sound like a Flacco apologist but is it just me or is Alex looking good? Almost all of the drops are his receivers faults.

 

[Drakeon]

Well, that trick play didn't go so well.

 

[Edgeward]

Should've been a draw play up the gut. Would've gone 15 yards at least

This is the first time the Rams have avoided starting 0-2 since 2006.

6 wins this year fo sure

 

[eznark]

Williams is such a bitch. DeSean without the talent.

 

[Elfforkusu]

4 man rush might work against Rams scrubs but no chance vs SF

I bet SF's d-line could get pressure with 4 against the SF o-line.

And since we've been repeatedly informed that the Lions have not only the greatest d-line in the league, but perhaps the greatest d-line of all time, clearly they can do it too. QED.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Bad play callin. At least we get the ball first in the 2nd. We are letting them stay in the game.

 

[etiolate]

Alex has been pretty on the money with his throws. Surprised at the drops.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Mmm that Outback 4 course deal looks good.

 

[GQman2121]

No, he does. I was going to wait until halftime to mention it, but he's making good throws out there. It's not like they're asking much of him right now with the lead, but he's playing his role well for the time being.

 

[NomarTyme]

Are the Lions gonna knee it?

 

[Elfforkusu]

Are the Lions gonna knee it?

Why take a knee when you can turn the ball over in your own red zone?

e: Okay, they had a moment of clarity.

 

[Drakeon]

Are the Lions gonna knee it?

Yep. Not even going to try. Cowards.

 

[eznark]

Cowards gonnna coward

 

[Drakeon]

Typical niners half, dominate the game, but only up 1 score. We really should be up by more than this.

 

[squicken]

Seems like you have to keep running against SF. If they are going to keep 6 in the box then you just need to beat them, b/c dropping that many in coverage is just too much to beat. Would think maybe a running QB could be effective

 

[Jackson50]

That half could have been worse. We're still in the game, at least.

 

[Snuggles]

This umbrella may look harmless

BUT IT'S NOT

 

[captive]

Imwondermhow many of these celebrity endorsers actually use xfinity.

 

[Chichikov]

Spoiler

but seriously, that was the right call.

 

[Elfforkusu]

but seriously, that was the right call.

What does Matt Ryan have to do with any of this?

 

[jakncoke]

still funny thats a legit game

I don't think we face any of them this year, unless I'm mistaken. No redskins, panthers or eagles on our schedule. Maybe in the playoffs? But I would worry more about Cam or RG3 than Vick the way he's been playing lately. Russel Wilson is the only one who we face that could be considered a running qb.

Smith ripped off a couple of 10 yard runs, but I think if he took it up the B gap he would have netted more. Than again maybe someone was scraping on that side of the field that you couldn't see on the broadcast.

No screen game or passes to the back, Linehan is usually good with that. Lining up in compressed sets and then flaring it out to the flat while an interior defender fights through the traffic. I'm sure it's because of what the Niners are doing, Linehan is good with the screen game.

The horse shuffling on it's hindlegs kills me.

The first time I saw it I almost suffocated at the sight of the limousine horse.

Rodney is a bitter little patsy bitch.

 

[Novid]

...are you serious - zero to none...not when your celerbrity endorser are smacking the same folk giving him his pixie dust to fix his leg.

Rodney Harrison is about to roid rage on Dan Patrick

 

[MechDX]

I wanted Watt....

I wanted Fairley. jnc

Glad it didnt happen that way.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

It should be a rule that no former Patriots players should be analysts.

Gotta love Dan's trolling.

 

[Spectral Glider]

ha ha at Flacco bitching about the refs.

 

[NomarTyme]

Gotta love Dan's trolling.

I love me some DP!

"Flacco minced no words": show clip of Flacco totally mincing words

 

[WedgeX]

They're pros at analyzing tape. It just happens to be legitimately obtained now.

 

[Vesmir]

Honestly, the replacement refs aren't THAT bad. The regular refs do a shit job as well, people are forgetting about this.

"I'm not saying they're doing a bad job..."

 

[eznark]

Steroid user and member of Patriots cheat teams telling players to take any advantage they can. Shocking. 

 

[Blackace]

You don't like the Madden passing stats?

Just nuts..

 

[Vesmir]

Gotta love Dan's trolling.

Have you listened to his radio show? Shit's hilarious. I don't know if its still televised, though.

 

[AndresON777]

Maybe if flacco would just give the goddamn ball to ray rice they would've won


--yeah DP is on the fox sports networks from 9am-12pm. radio would probably be better though his sidekicks can be annoying

 

[cajunator]

"the Saints clearly miss Sean Payton"

Yeah no fucking shit

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Scott Pioli pushed his way through a doorway, into the Ralph Wilson Stadium tunnel and then, alone, disappeared into the Chiefs’ locker room.

As the team he built was enduring the final minutes of death-by-Ryan Fitzpatrick, an embarrassing 35-17 loss to the Buffalo Bills, the Chiefs’ general manager walked toward a few minutes of solitude. Days like this are lonely when you’re the king, and maybe he embraced what is obvious to so many others who saw Sunday’s loss: that another team he constructed looks lost and unprepared. No injuries and no excuses, no former head coach to blame, and no safety net below the Chiefs’ most powerful football man.

The Chiefs’ problems are with their coaches and players, but the bigger issue is about the man who brought in those coaches and players. Yes, this game and this season are on Pioli, and there’s no denying that anymore. And there’s no more denying another truth, whether you’re ready to read it or not: The Chiefs will never win big while Pioli is this team’s boss. His priorities are too misguided, his insecurities and denial too immense to allow Kansas City’s favorite team to win the Super Bowl that he was brought here to claim.
