NFC Teams that have given up the fewest points are Eagles & Vikings .
Wrong Saint. You mean New Orleans Saints next week not Saint Louis, who doesn't have a franchise anymore.Originally Posted by phill4paul
Like you mentioned earlier the Vikings and Eagles. And don't count out the Panthers. The NFC is very strong this year even with the Cowboys having their disappointing season.
Denver used third starting QB so far this year. Paxton Lynch started the pre-season #2 but was injured and this was his first game. He got injured again. Was not able to get the ball off quick enough and Denver's offensive line doesn't offer enough protection no matter who is back there. Trevor Simian came in and did get two touchdowns for Denver who has lost seven in a row- for the first time since 1967. Denver fans are not used to the team being this bad. They had 50 yards total offense in the first half. Three of final four games are on the road but Chiefs are the only ones with a winning record- and they are on their own losing streak.
Some speculate that Crabtree deliberately got in a fight with Tailb for two reasons- one in retaliation for a similar altercation back in January (Talib ripped of Crabtree's gold chain in that one) and second to fire up his own team (and maybe get Talib out of the game). League will probably be fining them both.

Ravens cannot cover Hopkins , Texans need to keep going to it . They can win this .
Well , Houston had chances , lose by a touchdown 16 - 23 after turning it over three times which lead to them being outscored 23 - 9 the last three quarters .

Baltimore did not cover the spread . As expected .
Talib and Crabtree fined and suspended their next two games.

Shortly thereafter, Raiders coach Jack Del Rio tweeted his understandable confusion about the discipline, noting the NFL's refusal to suspend the protagonists of an equally violent fight four weeks earlier in Jacksonville.
I've got news for you, Del Rio. Talib and Crabtree didn't just receive far harsher punishments than Cincinnati Bengals receiver A.J. Green and Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey. If these suspensions hold up under expected appeals, they received two of the most severe disciplinary actions for an on-field incident in NFL history.
There are no official records for suspensions in pro football, but the website Football Zebras maintains a well-researched database that shows only seven incidents since 1920 that resulted in multigame suspensions. (The list does not include suspensions under the drug or personal conduct policies.) If you're one who believes the NFL is cracking down more severely this season, you'll note that two of the seven -- accounting for three of the eight players suspended -- have occurred this season.
The NFL seemed to take into account the prior history between Talib and Crabtree as well as Crabtree's punch of a Broncos player one play before the fight. Regardless, the NFL has placed them in rare company in an effort to root out fighting at a time of the season when maximum eyes are on the league and tensions tend to run high.
The first player to be suspended for more than one game under such circumstances was Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Charles Martin, who got two games from commissioner Pete Rozelle for body-slamming Chicago Bears quarterback Jim McMahon in 1986. Here is the rest of the list:
2005: Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth suspended five games for stomping on Dallas Cowboys center Andre Gurode.
2011: Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh suspended two games for stomping on Packers center Evan Smith (formally known as Evan Dietrich-Smith).
2014: Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather suspended two games for multiple illegal hits on defenseless players.
2016/2017: Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict suspended three games in consecutive seasons for hits on defenseless players and a blindside block, respectively.
2017: Talib and Crabtree suspended two games, pending appeals.While the league has handed out three multigame suspensions, referees have ejected 13 players from games through the first 12 weeks. That matches the NFL's highest total since at least 2001, according to ESPN Stats & Information, and likely longer than that.
On appeal, the suspensions were reduced to one game each.
Rumors are , Eli will be benched for Raiders game . Might be just enough to get the Raiders a win . Raiders are nine point favorites , I would have bet against that before but not now . Manning has 14 touchdowns , 7 interceptions and a completion percentage around 63 percent . Raiders win gets them to 6 - 6 , probably hoping for an invite to the Holiday Bowl or something .
Geno Smiths best yr was 2014 , in 14 games 13 TD's , 13 Interceptions . Career completion percentage about 58 percent . Tough to be a Giants fan .
So far Redskins do not look like they came to play . This game is to see who wants to be 5 - 7 .
Cowboys get three turnovers from Redskins , manage just 10 points out of it . Redskins ball , 5 1/2 to halftime . They could win this easy if they want to play football
What gives with Dak Prescot?? From hero to zero in nothing flat. I sure hope his career isn't over all ready...

Redskins survived themselves , three turnovers and the special teams giving up a TD ,they get the ball back in the third down by only 10 to a team that has been outscored in second half 72 - 6 in the past three games .
Vikings lead 14 - 9 in Atlanta in the Fourth . Vikings defense has surrendered an avg of 4 points a game in fourth quarters this year .
Vikings ball , 14 1/2 to play .
With 12 1/2 to play Keenum is 14 of 14 for 151 and a TD between the numbers against the Falcons . 9:40 to play Atlanta ball .
Vikings ball @ own 35 up 14 - 9 , five minutes to play . Atlanta 1 of 10 on third down against Vikings defense so far today . Vikings came in as three point underdogs . A Vikings TD on this drive ends this . Otherwise , Falcons will remain in the game .

Vikings 1st and Goal at atlanta 10 . 2 minute warning . Atlanta out of timeouts . Vikings up 14 - 9 . Vikings QB will be taking a knee and running clock out . The 10 - 2 Vikings cover the spread again . Vikings defense giving up 17 points a game , Eagles defense giving up 17 1/3 points a game . Eagles at Seachickens tonight . Probably toughest test of the season for Eagles who have had very easy schedule .

Panthers - Saints the big afternoon matchup .
Damn, Buzzards.
Panthers vs. Saints. So far this is the game to watch. Damn. 7-7 after first possessions. Both teams checked each others. 2nd. Still tied. Panthers Addison made an amazing sack......
Panthers defense just let the Saints walk up the field. Ingram 72 yard run. Another run by Kamara and Ingram takes it in. Panthers better shut that $#@! down or its over, because the Saints are sure as hell shut down McCaffrey. 14-7 Saints.
Panthers Palardy drops a punt. Who paid this guy off? Peppers charged a penalty. Bull$#@!.
21-7 Saints vs. Panthers. Can't go into half down by 2 down if Panthers want to compete. . Saints will hit their stride in third.
Great Panthers turnover. It's sorely needed.
Turnover into a touchdown as Mccaffrey is wide open. Turns it back into a game. Panthers bring it back to a 7 point game 14 to the Saints 21. Kick to the Saints. Can the Panthers adapt to the Saints ground game?
Saints over Panthers at half. 21-14. This is a good game. Hope the second half is as competitive as the first.
Saints rule the third so far. Panthers defense can't stop them defensively. 28-14.
