I was watching sporadically. A few times Burrow looked a bit confused and lost. He drifted back for an outlet pass and then thought he could shake the defender who promptly planted him in the ground about 15 yards behind where he started. The announcers were saying that he needed to throw that ball away. Then (maybe on the same drive) he called a timeout when the ball had already been snapped and he had to run back and fall on it. Cinci could've actually WON that game with some better mojo.

Not sure who was watching that NE-SEA game last night but I had Seattle -4.5 and they were up 35-30 late in the game. They had the ball on a 3rd and 1 and for some unknown reason they threw a long pass that was incomplete. The clock stops and they have to punt. Cam Newton and the Patriots march all the way downfield and and have the ball on the 1 yard line and somehow Cam is stopped on the last play of the game and Seattle wins by 5. But why oh why wouldn't you just run or throw a short pass to get the first down, keep the ball and keep the clock moving? I currently have 109 points for the week (of a possible 136) and me and my BIL are way, way out in front of everyone else. I need the Raiders to stick around and not lose by any more than 5 tonight vs. the Saints and I'll finish with 113 and 1st place for the week.

I have not watched a game yet. I only keep track via my FF app. I said last year I was not going to do FF this year but there would have only been 9 left in our league if I dropped so I stuck it out. I just have too many other things going on to watch games during the day. That may change next weekend because my 7 year old asked if we can watch the Patriots and have some wings. I told him if it is nice we will set the TV up on teh deck and have wings and watch the game. Hate to upset a 7 year old. The game will not be my focus. May have to make some pretzels to go with it.

I flipped back and forth between that NFL game and the Cubs last night but I spent most of yesterday on the bike because it was sunny and 70°. I have seen ZERO Bears this season so far. None. At some point when the snow is flying and I'm stuck inside I may be paying more attention but not yet. I used to make whatever good stuff for lunch when my kids were younger and then we would all go to the basement to watch the Bears. It was a tradition and I miss it. If the Bears were on later in the day or on Sunday night then it was a really big deal and the kids would get excited. Enjoy it while your kids are at that age. Pretzels, wings and Patriots sounds great for next weekend. Just tell me when to be there.

I just wish the Seahawks hadn't made it that exciting. It's not the first time I have seen the Seahawks call a boneheaded play like that. Like they want to get fancier than they need to be. Put your head down and get the first down with brute force!!

I have the Chargers vs KC game on DVR that I will watch tonight as part one of a doubleheader with MNF. I was following the Chargers game on a yahoo sports app and thinking oh snap they might be able to pull it off but I knew better.

Yes, I prefer to know the score of my favorite teams before I watch the game.I record all the Angels games and only watch the ones they win.I should probably go see a shrink but it drives me nuts not knowing what the outcome is going to be. I don't have a problem when I'm live at the game only when it's on TV.

Okay. Well, I didn't want to spoil it for you if you were going to watch it and [somehow] hadn't seen the final. The Chargers were +8.5 so they won... for me.

How did you do tonight? I thought the Saints were going to cream the Raiders.

The Raiders were +5.5 and I took them. I had a big week... 113 points. We use the line and also confidence points. I had 5 points on Seattle on Sunday and 4 points on the Raiders last night. I have been using a site called ODDS-SHARK. It uses the line and crunches all the numbers with an algorithm... perfect for me. I picked 13 of 16 correctly this week. I was hurt by TEN who was giving JAX 10.5. The Bears did not cover and Dallas did not cover. I won the rest.
