Jags can still tie this up... I spoke to soon lol

Give me another sack JJ!

Doesn't matter anymore. 8-8 was better than I expected though

 

[Tamanon]

Hmm....

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Come on. It wasn't Flacco that won that SB. It was a vitalized team with Ray Lewis announcing retirement. As soon as he said it was his last season, I told everyone here I was scared of the Ravens, and I was right.

If your stupid safety plays deep enough the Broncos win. I'll never forgive that twat for handing the Ravens a ring.

 

[Ricker]

Chargers are in with a win.
Chiefs need a ravens and Texas loss

Chiefs are winning but need help they arent going to get. They are likely done.

Ah damn,looks like that wont happen,Ravens up by 10 with 2 minutes left...thanks.

 

[skLaFarebear]

How does anyone have faith in Philbin and Pettine with the way their seasons' ended?

Ross is literally the only person who still has faith in Philbin. The problem is, that's his boss.

Also god tannehill was murdered on that drive. Is his o-line trying to kill him?

 

[Kevtones]

22.5 is the record right?

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Shit ending to a shit season.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Can't believe I have to deal with another season of Philbin. Fuck this season.

 

[Grexeno]

God fucking damn it, the fucking Ravens are going to win the Super Bowl again.

 

[Talamius]

22 sacks? Obamanotbad.jpg

 

[brentech]

looks like Borts maybe should have ran that just to pick up a couple

 

[Jarate]

Houston is gonna get himself a huge contract

 

[WesternHeretic]

Go home Rivers you will never win 2 rings like Eli.

 

[harSon]

22.5 is the record right?

Yeah, he's tied right now

 

[Vyer]

Damn, players dropping everywhere

 

[Sanjuro]

The Angels had the best record in the AL IIRC. They sucked in the playoffs but they made it in. Trout was even better the last two seasons and lost out on MVP because he didn't make the playoffs.

To me it's different because of impact. In the NBA or NFL (with QBs), a single players impact is HUGE. You take LeBron or Durant away and replace them with an average player and their teams go from 55 wins and the playoffs to 20 wins and the lottery. Same thing with QBs in the NFL. The way the league is structured Quarterbacks are by far the most valuable players in the league and it's not even close. You don't win without a good QB. Replace Luck or Brady with an average QB and those teams win 4 or 5 games. Replace Watt with an average defensive lineman and I'm sure the Texans can still find a way to miss the playoffs or hover around .500. Watt is a great player, but not the most valuable.

I think they need to become more defined.

...and, yes. I'm one of those people who do believe the MVP has to be awarded to a player of a competitive team who makes the post season. I don't see how someone can be the most valuable to a team who is not in contention.

 

[BlindRage]

Lmao. What's rivers record in December now?

Spoiler

15-3

 

[Greg]

The only thing these arguments inform me is that the MVP award needs to have its name changed, or another award needs to exist to acknowledge tremendous, historic performances.

Not putting Watt on the books for this season, or his 2012 season, because some QB out of the littany of similarly producing QBs tossed 40 touchdowns is corny. Last year Peyton broke every offensive statistic worth breaking, so sure. This year no QB stood out week in and week out, whereas Watt destroyed QBs and offensive linemen non stop.

I believe it's called defensive player of the year

 

[Zee-Row]

DM, Mindlog, Zee-Row, my other fellow Bucs fans...

We did it.

We da real champs.

The NFC South is going to regret beating us! Little do they know they helped accelerated their ultimate destruction!

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Patriots have not allowed a 2nd half touchdown since the Colts game.

And that was to Anthony Costanzo.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Alright, heading out to watch the game, because the Rams suck and are on local tv.

This shirt, which I am wearing today, will carry us to victory.

Special thanks to Sanjuro.

I don't think Ross has faith. He just doesn't want another Sparano situation so he's publicly backing him early. Ross cares way more about Michigan, we're just a plaything for him.

 

[coolasj19]

What a craptastic ending to the season. Injuries, Jags in the red zone, Browns being the Browns.

Was that the dude that did the Dhalsim dance?

 

[Matrix]

Doesn't matter anymore. 8-8 was better than I expected though

True. I still don't want to lose to the Jags at home and the last game of the season.

 

[shadyspace]

Not as satisfying as last season when we kept them out of the playoffs last year but I'll take it! Fuck yourself Fins.

 

[Kevtones]

That return just won the game for KC even though there was no play.

Please break the sack record.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Yep.

 

[JNA]

Houston...imagine him and Watt on the same team together.

 

[Danthrax]

OK guys what's the draft order looking like

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Was that the dude that did the Dhalsim dance?

Yes

 

[GQman2121]

Bad guys back in the playoffs, suck it everybody.

 

[Trey]

I believe it's called defensive player of the year

Nah.

 

[Colasante]

 

[Grexeno]

Houston...imagine him and Watt on the same team together.

*hides behind couch*

 

[Sanjuro]

LET'S GO GET A GODDAM SNACK...for the last time.

 

[brentech]

he didn't come down inside. good try though

 

[Quikies83]

gg Chargers

 

[JNA]

Oh man almost win for Jags there lol.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Welp no three teams from the AFC West in the playoffs this time.

 

[jakncoke]

narichan go drink yourself to death bitch

 

[skLaFarebear]

I don't think Ross has faith. He just doesn't want another Sparano situation so he's publicly backing him early. Ross cares way more about Michigan, we're just a plaything for him.

You're right. No one has any faith in philbin. He just lucked out that he has another year.

 

[Matrix]

Nice 9-7 finish, I will fucking take it.

I agree, the only sport I don't hold to this standard is baseball, because you can have the best player on the planet, Trout or Bonds in his prime, and still miss the playoffs if your pitching is no good. No one player has as much individual impact as a quarterback or franchise NBA player can.

 

[Duxxy3]

Lots of pro bowl flashes today.

 

[Tamanon]

Close Good try.

 

[ActStriker]

So AFC North winners vs. Ravens

 

[MechDX]

Nice 9-7 finish, I will fucking take it.

BOB is going to be REALLY damn good

 

[Officerrob]

I appreciate the Jets showing up today and potentially letting the Raiders move ahead of them in the draft
