My God the Dolphins were horrible. Nearly as bad as the commentators who didn't seem to know anything.

My daughter wasn't going to leave the sofa and go to bed until the Bears/Steelers game had ended.
She's really getting into it...

Great win from the Redskins. :D

Not sure where that defense came from though.

Wow.... Brilliant FG block becomes complete fuck up through showboating before Cooper crosses the line.

Love it when showboating goes wrong in any sport. Amazed it doesn't happen more often in American sports as they generally seem to be concentrating much more on the celebrations than the point scoring at times.

That was a particularly good one though, particularly as he got smashed in the penis at the same time.

I think I'd be happy with an end of NFL season DVD of 'Shit tackles and showboating fails'. All that other nonsense just gets in the way.

Sproles tore his ACL and broke his arm on the same play yesterday.
That hurts. I saw a stat pop up yesterday. Sproles is 8th on the all time yardage list, and he would've easily leapfrogged Steve Smith and Marshall Faulk into 6th in the next game or two, if not for his injury. Amazing stat. :eek:

Is he really that high? That must include punt and kick-off returns, which inflate it a bit. He's one of my favourite players though.

Yeah, it includes everything. Mostly kickoff returns. Still amazing to rack up that much returnage over the years, given the NFL considers it the most dangerous part of the game. Hence their repeated attempts to mess with it.

Entire Cowboys roster, plus Jerry Jones and other executives knelt together ahead of the game last night.
Slight twist on the other events from the weekend as they knelt before the flag was unfurled and ahead of national anthem.

Massive game tonight, I am expecting a loss but would be a huge win if we could pull off an upset.

Really don't have any confidence in Glennon though.
