Yeah. Including the game today against Tennessee where they only scored 10 points and Bortles threw at least a couple picks. As good as their defense is, Bortles is their achilles heel. Rattle him and he’ll make a bunch of mistakes.
Don’t let that distract you from the fact Atlanta blew a 28-3 halftime lead to lose the Super Bowl.
The Packers (shockingly) lost to the Lions, and it wasn’t even close. And cheer as I might, no meteor crashed into US Bank Stadium to forcefully remove both of my PITAs from the face of the planet. I’ll work through the playoff field and pick my 2017 NFL Playoff Team tomorrow, but I just can’t bring myself to look at a bracket that doesn’t include Green Bay anywhere in it tonight.
On another note, how the hell does Del Rio get canned with a .500 record over three years, but Hue Jackson STILL gets to keep his job? If Kizer happens to develop into a middling NFL quarterback, it will be in spite of Hue, not because of him. I can’t think of anything that will ruin a player’s confidence than to be repeatedly yanked and put back in, with no rhyme or reason, then have a new GM pretty much call him garbage. Jackson being employed in any HC capacity is an insult to the profession.
Rumor has it Dom Capers is on his way out as Green Bay’s defensive coordinator. The guy can claim one of the biggest “feast or famine” defenses out there, but with the constant turnover and added play time of younger players due to the rookie contract scale, players just didn’t have the time to learn everything that was needed for his playcalling to succeed. As much as I hate to finally admit it, he needs to go.
Well…found the video. Good for the Bills.
ETA: It’s funny…this is a team the Bengals beat during the regular season…and now we helped secure their playoff spot.
I own a t-shirt commemorating that very fact, so I’m not likely to forget it. ![]()
I love that video, thanks for sharing. We were pulling for the Bills since it’s been so long for them, plus we also enjoy Ravens schadenfreude.
March 28 is now a semi-official holiday in New England, Comeback Day.
I need to get one of those, along with a Richard Sherman Haz A Sad shirt.
There’s something I need in my life that I didn’t even realize.
Another wrinkle in that story is that Bills fans have taken to social media to boost charitable donations to Andy Dalton’s “Andy And Jordan Dalton Foundation”, which raises money to help disabled and underprivileged children in the greater Cincinnati area…mostly in $17 increments..which is how many years since the Bills last made the playoffs, LOL.
Looks like they’re up over $15,000 now. So that’s the fans. The Bills players? They’re sending the Bengals team buffalo wings, of course.
This because they’re out-of-towners, or else they’d send beef-on-weck.
And the Browns pull it off! A perfect season!
They can do a celebratory dance in the end zone, if someone will show them where it is.

Which, interestingly, the Cincinnati people might have recognized, as it used to be served at Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck, headquartered there until 1997. ![]()
Hm. I’ve lived in the tristate area around Cincy since 1993 and I don’t recall Buffalo Wild Wings ever being called that.
It was called BW3s colloquially for quite a while around here in the Chicago area (although I don’t know if people still call it that). The “Weck” got dropped from the name in 1998 (but I don’t know if we even had BW3s around at that time). So, if you were up on your trivia or curious enough to ask, at least you’d know why it was nicknamed “BW3” when there’s only 2 Ws in the current name. I’ve never seen weck on the menu here, though, but, like I said, I didn’t see any BW3s until after the name change.
Actually, looking through the Chicago Tribune archives, it seems that back in 1995 there was at least one Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck around here before the name change (although the article also refers to it as BW-3), and it did serve beef-on-weck for $3.99. Here for reference, although it seems the official name was “BW-3” in this market, not the full one. Hard to tell with the article, as the body copy says “BW-3, or Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck.”
Sounds like some fancy breed of poofy, yappy lap dog.

Carson Palmer retires. Good for both him and the team, Arizona needs a new young QB and Palmer has had injuries the past couple seasons

Cincinnati renewed the contract of Marvin Lewis.
Oh I had already looked it up and found it to be true, I was just saying I didn’t remember that moniker is all.
God help me. Worst news EVER!
It’s sad when coaching longevity is a sign of institutional disfunction. Appears to be true at BOTH of the Ohio franchises this year. ![]()
