Way for the Giants to ruin my birthday! This is getting ridiculous! Nothing has changed at all from last year. I think the Giants are done! Maybe it's time to give up football until Coughlin gets fired!

McAdoo needs to go too.

What do Thomas Rawls, Doug Martin, Chris Ivory and Travis Kelce all have in common? They've all fumbled and are starters on my fantasy team this week.

I have Kelce playing now with Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown to play tonight. I'm in good shape to win and make it into the playoffs, barring an outrageous performance by players in the second have of these afternoon games, or a couple Cowboys tomorrow night.

Patriots fall again!

Pats did not have their star Gronk.

After tomorrow night the Beagles could be tied for first place. I wonder if all the talk about firing Chip Kelly would die down then.

It's hard to form a consistent contender when you redesign the team each offseason. A team of free agents have rarely played together, and often times the free agents are players other teams don't want anymore, or don't find their talent worth their salary.

The lone female in our fantasy league will enter the playoffs as the #1 seed. She has now won 6 in a row. Coming into this week I was seed #2, but if seed #3 (coming into this week) loses, then I might not make it into the playoffs. If he wins, I should make it in whether I win or not, either as the #2 seed or #4 seed. If he loses, then I need to win mine or the tiebreaker will come down to a few points. A lot on the line! And the only two games still up for grabs are mine and his.

Well I'm going to win. I'm up 145-80 right now. Big Ben has me 43 points, and Antonio Brown has me 28. Martavis Bryant has me 21 points on my bench. This is my second highest point total of the season.

So I'll head in as the #2 seed and face the #3 seed. And the #3 seed (coming into this week) will lose and fall to the #4 seed.

The next two weeks will be tough matchups as Roethlisberger/Brown/Bryant play the Bengals then the Broncos, but at this point the Steelers offense has proven to be good against any defense. Hoping I can move onto the championship!

Oh, and the other matchup in round 1 is a boyfriend/girlfriend duo. So that will be interesting.

You know, if Ben Roethlisberger had been healthy all season, I think he'd be one of the leading candidates for MVP. He's having a phenomenal year.

A first down! This game is really getting exciting!

So much offense I can barely stand it!

When they showed Jackson trying to pump up the crowd and show 'give it to me'... I was sitting here and said outloud 'he's all cocky here until he fumbles'... and he does. And now he just catches the game tieing throw.. MNF is getting some good TV time the last few weeks

But the running backwards 22yrds was just beyond stupid...

 

[PUSH]

DeSean getting lucky there. However, if they could have done that without the fumble leading to the Cowboys score, that would have probably been more acceptable.

 

[Lord_Vader]

The Cowboys finally figure out how to win a game.

On the bright side, even though their season is most likely over, they at least knocked down the Redskins.

This just proves how terrible the NFC East is, three teams leading the division at 5-7 with the Cowboys one game back at 4-8!

Updated Playoff Machine Predictions

AFC
1. DEN 2. NE 3. CIN 4. IND 5. KC 6. PIT
NFC
1. CAR 2. ARI 3. GB 4. NYG 5. SEA 6. MIN

Giants winning the division (at 7-9) is contingent on them being the team to knock Carolina from the unbeaten. If that doesn't happen, Philly wins at 6-10 (and 10-6 NYJ, 9-7 BUF, and 9-7 TB stay home).

Everyone, except Carolina, has lost at least one game that they should have won.

Cleveland is done winning this year.

I think at least one team in that division will finish with 7 or even 8 wins, but it would be hilarious if a 6-10 team hosted a playoff game.

I heard a radio host say yesterday that would make Roger Goodell's head explode.

 

[acishere]

I honestly don't want my team to make the playoffs. Changes need to be made and stumbling into the playoffs could jeopardize that.

Anything that keeps Chip Kelly bumbling around in Philadelphia would be worth it in the long run though.

Like I said, it would be hilarious.

The sad thing is the Redskins were in the best position to take the NFC east... till that trainwreck Dallas game. Talk about comedy of errors..
