NFL Week 12 -- The Unbearable Weight of Caleb Williams

[Sam Mills 51]

The Bucs are DONE. Everyone's banged up, they can't stop anyone on defense and now Mayfield may have lost both his arms. I think Carolina can win that division just by steering the car to 8-9.

Holy ... did I just read this?

The fact that the Panthers have progressed to being competitive is the next step. The division? Consistency, not the division, is the next logical step.

Speaking of bad teams ...

That was one of the shorter Vegas residencies of recent vintage.

There just isn't a team you can look at and say for sure, "That's a Super Bowl team."

The Patriots and Broncos have the best records in the league. I just can't see either one as a Super Bowl champion.

The Rams look like one.

And it was knocked down in 2015. Only a few signs remain.

McCarthy is going to cost some people in Minnesota their jobs.
I wouldn’t let that kid start a hs game.

You should, he went 36-2 at that level. And 27-1 in college

Fair enough.

Dallas needs to go 5-1 down the stretch to make the postseason. I didn't think it was feasible a couple of weeks ago, but things change.

Next two weeks are huge -- KC at home on Thursday and at Detroit the following Thursday night. If they find a way to split, they close with Vikings and Chargers at home and Washington and the Giants away. 5-1 is absolutely in play.

The Bears' schedule really toughens up here at the end. They're 8-3 and probably need two more wins to feel great. They get a pissed off Philly team on Black Friday, then the Packers in Lambeau, Cleveland and the Pack at home, at 49ers, vs. Lions. That's not an easy run.

O'Connell built up an awful a lot of capital by winning 13 games with Cousins and 14 with Darnold. And most if not all of that capital is just about to go out the window in light of the McCarthy disaster. That they thought he was ready to be a starter for a contending team is really puzzling in retrospect.

And while it's not like they could have factored this in or can publicly cite this as an explanation, and I'm all in favor of parental involvement . . . having a newborn in the house probably is not doing a whole lot to help someone who's only 22 years old excel in his first season as an NFL starting quarterback.

And now the Cowboys are playing for a 60 yard field goal. I know Aubrey is awesome, but still.

EDIT: Never mind. The Eagles said, nah, try it from 40.

Pickens played like an absolute beast in that game. He now has more yards receiving this season by himself than the Steelers entire receiving corps. I don't care that Pickens is a jackass. The Cowboys robbed the Steelers blind on that trade.

Never blame the receivers who are too busy checking their makeup to get open. Never blame the offensive line. Always blame the quarterback.

Sometimes this place is as dumb as talk radio, if not dumber.

As a Jaguars fan, I think a 60-yard FG is makeable.

FTFY

If Rush Limbaugh was not getting battery acid enemas in hell whilst surrounded by swarming vulgar masses of infected virulency, he might say that the media has been very desirious that JJ McCarrthy do well.

That may be the oddest use of "Bohemian Rhapsody " ever.

That was OK. That cover of "In The Air Tonight" is crap. And, again folks, listen to the lyrics ... SMH ...

 

[HanSenSE]

CMC left, CMC right, CMC up the middle ...

 

[Sam Mills 51]

Can I just save three hours and start blaming Scott Fitterer now?

I forget. Does the guy end up drowning?
