I can’t believe Buffalo is coming back. No wait, I CAN believe it. Law of Gus FTW! ---

Rodgers is not worthy to carry Favre’s jockstrap. ---

Six turnovers resulting in what, seven points for the Browns? Embarrassing ☹ ---

I wish I could watch the Bills game. From the updates it looks like the most exciting game today. I’m pleased with myself for picking up Fitzpatrick for my fantasy team. ---

Losing after leading by 3 points is a huge meltdown. ---

> [@Hentor\_the\_Barbarian](#): > > Gee, my mistake. I thought that the Browns gave up two touchdowns in the last 3 minutes of the game. They gave up a TD with over 6 minutes left in the game, which tied it. Then they marched down to a field goal to take the lead again, Jacksonville scored again, and the Browns got close on the last drive to retake the lead at the end. That’s totally like blowing a 28 point lead to lose by 12+. ---

Almost missed the Bills’ victory. When they were down 28-7 I considered turning off the TV and going out to do some shopping I needed to get done. ---

I’m really beginning to like this losing my Bengals are doing. We keep this up and we’ll get sorely-needed new coaches and players. I hope we get Luck in the draft, although if Mike Brown is still the GM he won’t be signed until the 2012 training camp. ---

Well, the Ravens’ victory wasn’t as convincing as expected, and nor was it quite as convincing as the final scoreline suggests. They managed 22 first downs to 9 by the Panthers, and Flacco threw for 300 yards, but it was pretty close until the last quarter, and even then Baltimore’s 2 last-quarter TDs were scored by the defense. Ed Reed’s interception was great, and his presence of mind to send a lateral pass to someone in a better position to score the TD was typical of his ability. Also nice to see Ray Lewis run an interception back for a TD. ---

Damn McCann keeps turning games around, that was a great heads-up play to snag the punt and run it back. But Garrett better turn up his magic if the Cowboys are going to knock off the Saints. ---

Well, I’m judging this as the team that beat the Saints and beat the Patriots. Remember, I ate my words about them being a crap team and all. It looks like in the fourth quarter, they gave up a 61 yard drive for one touchdown and then on the next series an 87 yard drive for a second touchdown. In Pittsburgh, when the Steelers do that, we call it a meltdown. Maybe in Cleveland, they just call that the fourth quarter. ---

I don’t think the Bengals will ever get any Luck. ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nfl-week-11/561131.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nfl-week-11/561131.md?page=5)
