> [@EllisDee](#): > > Would you say that about Tua? I don’t have much of anything to say about Tua. The jury is out on him. He hasn’t been in the league long enough for me to say if he’s a long-term success or not. He has yet to play a full season of football since he was drafted. He’s not a great example of much of anything yet. He has potential if he can be healthy. If he ends up being successful in the long run, maybe he can be an example of the pocket passer being a winning strategy, but you can’t say that yet. ---

This game is important for the {\color{blue}\mathbf{GIANTS}}. They have to beat a team they’re as good as or maybe a little better to continue this run and finally get us a Play Off Game. The Giants’ [injury report](https://www.giants.com/team/injury-report/) is up to 16 players, it might be too much. ---

[Moderating] > [@Hamlet](#): > > In his first NFL snap in almost 2 years, Deshaun Watson tears his Achilles to shreds, never playing another snap of football. Right before disappearing into obscurity, he is intimidated by giant, physically imposing, famous, powerful men into giving them handies against his will. Jimmy Haslam then fucks off into obscurity with Watson. Antonio Brown then joins them. We do not wish rape on people. This is an official Warning. And in case anyone is wondering why it was two days before this got moderated, it’s because it wasn’t reported until after I had gone to bed last night, and I’m only just now seeing it. ---

This game is starting to look like a crushing defeat for the Giants with a minute left. Up until the 2:00 warning in the 4th quarter, Daniel Jones had thrown one incomplete pass, which was a spike to stop the clock at the end of the first half. After the 2:00 warning, 3 & out with three incomplete passes. Ugh. ---

They were so close to putting this one away and have looked terrible until this last Washington Drive. ---

Lions hold onto a razor-thin chance for a wildcard with a commanding win over the Jags. So now, defense, you finally start to get your shite together? Week 3 or 4 woulda been a better time to gel. ---

I still want to see the NFC East be the only division in NFL history to send all 4 teams to the playoffs. ---

The Packers were behind the Bears for most of the game, but pulled out a win, in no small part due to Bears QB Justin Fields throwing two interceptions in Packers territory in the final three minutes of the game. ---

The Rams/Hawks game is rough, Seattle is running out of RBs and LA is running out of QBs. 🤕 ---

Seattle kept their playoff hopes alive with a thrilling win in the last minute of the game. I give Wolford credit for his guts though. That poor dude has got to be hurting. ---

> [@solost](#): > > Lions hold onto a razor-thin chance for a wildcard with a commanding win over the Jags. That was a very un-Lions like win. They just dominated. No turnovers, 1 penalty all game, 8/12 on 3rd down conversions, Goff 31/41 with 2 TDs and 340 yards. If a few things had gone slightly differently in a couple games, they’d be in the hunt for sure. It feels like a team I could actually root for without people feeling pity for me.
