Perfect timing!
Right before the big game vs the Saints for #1 in the NFC South

You would think that with the number of times this stuff happens coaches would be constantly reminding players not to take any kind of pill or supplement without checking with the team doctors...  Happens in baseball all the time also.

We are dealing with a number of injuries so we need every able player for this game and he does this *smh*

They need to!!

Bills play the Patriots in Buffalo and the Panthers battle the Saints in NO for the top spot in the NFC South in the afternoon..
Both will be interesting, or dismal

NFL channel reporting that the NY Giants are not starting Eli Manning for the first time since 2004. Surprising to hear for the once two time Superbowl champion with the team performing 2-9 so far this season they are looking more like the Cleveland Browns than that of their former glory. Speaking of the Brownies looks like they are going for some kind of record this season going 0-11 as of this week.

Amazing!! We got the Bills game on CBS here in the Carolina
Now lets hope they upset the Patriots!

[RVR II]

Bills have held the Patriots to a season low 9 points so far
Now they just need to get some more points and pull the upset..

[RVR II]

Once again, the Bills go from bad to worse..
QB Taylor is carted off and the rookie Peterman is back..
Why they don't bring in Webb III instead is beyond me

[RVR II]

And after a shitty late hit by Gronk, we switch to the Chiefs @ Jets game

I'll just switch to Fox for the Panthers game instead..

Wow, when I left to go to NJ the Bills were only down by 6, get in the car to come home and hear that they never scored again...

Panthers defense is keeping them in it against the Saints.

It's like they just gave up in the 2nd half

Panthers defense is keeping them in it against the Saints.

They were starting to fall apart but hopefully they've gotten things stabilized..
If not I'm heading to bed very soon so I can get up at 2am for work.
We'll see how it goes

[RVR II]

And now the refs don't call an off-sides on the Saints costing us a 1st down

[RVR II]

SHIT!!!! 
Yeah I think I need to go to bed now....

[MartyS (Gromit)]

I don't get the refs not calling that neutral zone infraction, I'd like to hear an explanation of that...

Doesn't look good, Panthers can't seem to get any offense going, think I'll do something else before the Eagles vs. Seahawks game tonight.

[RVR II]

Doesn't look like Sunday was a good day at all as I see the Eagles were upset in Seattle..

[MartyS (Gromit)]

Carson made some badly timed mistakes, it should have been a tie game.  It had the feel of a playoff game, so hopefully this will teach him a few things and he will do better when they are in the playoffs.  Eagles only need to win one more or cowchips lose one more to clinch the division, but they do need to keep the intensity up if they want home field in the playoffs.

I still don't get that stupid rule where a fumble out of the end zone is treated different than a fumble out of bounds, we would have had the ball on the 1 but instead it's a turnover.
