I wouldn't. Regardless of form it's two big tv markets. But the main thing is the rest of that day hasn't got a lot on that's much better for NBC to use a flex.
The Cowboys-Patriots would be attractive if Romo were healthy, but then again CBS would probably protect it anyway. Maybe Seattle at Cincinnati.
That's 4.5 through 3 games out of 16. They'll probably actually shrink and regress near the end of the year though, so it's too early to tell.
If you can find that play on Gamepass, the TV cuts to Chip giving him a "wtf are you doing" look

Give me a break. What, that's the one play where Chip didn't dictate the read pre-snap in three years?
It doesn't get much easier than the Cowboys and Falcons defenses so the number is probably inflated if anything.

He definitely could have and should have pulled it there. His shrug after the play was pretty conclusive of that, as well as Chip's face.

As strange as it would have seemed two weeks ago, I could easily see the Raiders/Broncos being flexed into Sunday Night week 5

Hey Ez, Waynes didn't completely self destruct yesterday!

He doesn't have the size of Jones, but he's just as fluid as Brown. Plus he's slightly bigger.
Shrug looked more like "wish I could have gone to you, bud, out of my control" to me. But we're all just reading what we want into this.
Yeah, looking forward to watching that game again. Rivers went at him right away that first series he was in but then kind of stopped. Mostly because he was getting killed I think, but maybe Waynes was just playing well.

Roman has been incredible for the Bills, I love what he's done so far. I wish he was the Dolphins OC.

Think a Matt Cassel offense can score 28 points?

Good game MRSA. You guys absolutely destroyed out O-line at times and Cooper > Haden. What a joy to watch him play. Also, Latavius is a beast, gonna be a top 3 back in the league.
Then no he didn't.
Thanks. You're still a sexist Degenerate

Suck a dick.
Worse McCown played a pretty inspired game against the Panthers. It took a crazy INT by Josh Norman to save us from what would have been a really embarrassing loss. Granted, our D limped into the 4th quarter without our best DE, running back, and linebacker, but it still should have never been that close.
Can't say but I imagine he can at least throw a deep ball. All the passes Weeden had were about 10yds that's it. After that the falcons just stacked the box and covered underneath. He had to long passes one to Witten that he put too high and the slant to Williams. That's two out of 26 attempts you aren't going to win any games like that.

They didn't ask Madden for help. I wasn't surprised we blew another lead to the Colts. Just thankful they covered the spread
Probably not. Weeden has had two off seasons worth of reps in Garrett's offense (plus a season of first team Wednesday practices). Cassel had what? A year in Norv's offense. I don't think they would feel comfortable with Cassel.
This is Weeden's ship unless he gets injured.
I would wait until the all-22 to properly assess Weeden's play and
to see why tanking is the Cowboys best option going foward.
I guess we can be positive and say Mariota led a very nice drive for the TD at the end with the chance to tie it.
But yeah, I texted a friend at the start of the 4th quarter and said we wouldn't be able to close out this game, and not getting that TD from the 1 would come back and bite us in the ass.
Then that's exactly what happened.
Y'all barely escaped the onslaught of Verizon backup commercials. I'm amazed that was a game to begin with.
Making money off the spread, eh?

While I agree that he needs to play better, Teddy's receivers aren't doing him any favors. Rudolph drops a TD pass that hits him square in the chest/hands. Charles Johnson #1. is worthless beyond about 10 yards and #2. never fights for a ball. He let that defender get right in front of him on that INT. Patterson doesn't understand routes. Add to that a beat-up OLine.
If Ponder were playing today he probably would have tossed up about 3 INTs and bailed out of the constantly collapsing pocket 94% of the plays. I think Teddy is still adjusting to the force that is AD.
Teddy's been bailed out the last two weeks by stellar defense and Adrian. Eventually the Vikes will face a team that can shut down Adrian, so that's when Teddy will need to step up. Unlike the past few QBs the Vikes have had, I actually have confidence that Teddy will perform.
Denver is going to be a big test. I don't expect the Vikebike to win, but if they can get to Manning the way they got to Fatford and Rivers, Manning might actually be murdered on the field. All I've heard about is how awesome Denver's D is. How does their OLine look?

My god you are an insane person. Foles has put up 6 points the last 2 weeks against bad defenses. He is terrible. Bradford had no turnovers against a defense that was forcing 5 a game. The back catch 2 perfectly thrown balls and Sams stats would be totally different. The throw to Nelson was bad but that was really the only one. The Eagles put up 24 on the best defense in football and are only 1 game out of first. Be happy.

I'm not as impressed by Denver as other people. Their D is great though.
Peyton looks old.

Just one of those games where everything came up Millhouse for the underdog. They played basically a perfect first quarter and a half, controlling the clock and putting 10 points on the board. Then they got a special teams touchdown to start the second half. If their defense was just a little better or Cam Newton wasn't a fucking boss then they'd have won. $100 million well spent!

The Jets were nowhere near the best defense in football, Bradford had an atrocious game, and the offense actually only put up 17 points up.
Bradford, for all that he was as a Ram, and for all that he is as an Eagle, is exactly who we thouht he was. Someone who simply can not keep up woth the speed of the NFL, who doesn't have the talent to justify him starting for any team, even one as poorly built as the Eagles.
Luck and Lowery saved his job.
Also one of our Guards Hugh Thorton was having an absolutely shit game and had like 6 penalties called against him. At one point he started crying and Luck came over to try and calm him down, and he pushed Luck away...
Man, I wish he was our head coach at Pway.

I think it'll come down to the D harassing Peyton often, force mistakes out of him, and Norv coming up with an offensive gameplan that can chip away at Denver's D and maybe wear them out. Stay away from their damn secondary. It's a tall order, but if the Vikes want to get any respect they need to get some road wins against above average teams. That starts in Denver.
I say the Vikes give Chuck Johnson about two more games- then give Diggs a shot as a starter. At this point I'd take Johnson out over a guy like Thielen. Diggs could end up being something special. He's explosive- and unlike Patterson, he can actually run routes.
