Go.

 

[rockaction]

Prime rib cooking, presents opening, but this game can't come fast enough. Let's go!

Throw for 10, throw for 12, throw for 15, throw for 10. Run, run, 3rd and long...fg

You did forget a run for eleven, though I get what you're saying.

Houston has difficulty with the pass, not so much with the run. They're probably sixth against the rush, according to DVOA.

Game couldn't have started worse for my fantasy team. Just so you all know, I need Bell and Smith-Schuster to each score twenty. Looks bad right now.  

 

[GregR]

Was that sideline catch good, or should they have challenged?

Sorry rock

I'm only playing for 3rd but I need Ben and Bryant

Lot of game left

Looked good imo. 2nd toe barely drug

 

[IheartGuinness]

Looks like the monster game I need from Bell isn't going to happen today.

I guess second place isn't the end of the world.

Looked good to me. No challenge. Mike Tirico said you could see rubber from the toe drag. 

I don't know what that means.

Successful year. I've won once in seven years, finished second three times, and know how much luck factors into it. I only won because Lockett broke his leg last year. I only lost this year because I started Chicago over Arizona, Keenum missed a pass to Thielen, etc. 

 

[C-Bound]

Juju, where are you?  Please be true.  Make some catches you foo'...I know you want to...TIA!

Thanks, bud. 

Good luck for the bronze.

The toe drag kicked up the rubber pellets in the turf.

Thanks. That's right, artificial turf is made from rubber, right? Makes sense for the more modern turf they use.  

 

[GregR]

That catch is getting challenged

 

[Slapdash]

There are these damn black rubber pellets that are in the turf.  Used to play in an adult soccer league that kept playing on turf, quit because it really tears you up when you fall/slide. 

 

[rockaction]

This game is such a dud. Yates looks never to score a point, and Pittsburgh looks content with that. 

Shoot.  

 

[JaxBill]

That catch is getting challenged

That was the right call but if Steelers let 42 seconds go off the clock after that catch, they have only themselves to blame

Gotcha. That stinks. Adult soccer leagues at least keep you fit a bit. No need to be on turf, really.  

 

[rockaction]

I think the struggle for the ball took at least twenty-thirty seconds.  

 

[rockaction]

Well, that's awesome for me. I want this to turn into a track meet. Alfred Blue!  

eta* I just want to be honest that I'm cheering solely for my fantasy team so people don't take offense. This needs to be close and high-scoring for me to compete.  

 

[lod001]

Miller would have ran into the OL and got 2 yards on that Blue carry.

 

[The General]

Gotcha. That stinks. Adult soccer leagues at least keep you fit a bit. No need to be on turf, really.  

The turf is a ton more durable and easier to maintain than grass. But yeah sliding on the stuff is no bueno.

Oh, I know that. I just haven't played on it, nor knew that there were rubber pellets in it these days.  

 

[rockaction]

Oh boy. 

 

[Tool]

2 passes from the 6 inch line with TJ Yates at qb? you've gotta be kidding me

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Is Sarkisian calling plays for the Texans now?

 

[Dez]

3rd and goal at the 1 foot line and they throw twice in a row pretty smart.

 

[rockaction]

Looks like O'Brien has taken a page out of Bevell's book.  

 

[Slapdash]

Yeah, especially when this company really doesn't like to call off games for rain.  We've played some true mud games on grass fields that they don't maintain well.  Unfortunately, I play mostly in the goal so sliding is a way of life.  Even with good keeper pants that #### hurts.

 

[Slapdash]

Has there been a Jesse James siting?  Realize Vance has been injured, but it looks like he has taken the job.

 

[Ridcully]

Ben, throw the ball to JuJu!!!  You’re ruining my Christmas! 

 

[Yankee23Fan]

I really hate fullbacks.

 

[rockaction]

Nix with the touchdown. That helped...

nobody in the fantasy world.  

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Aannnndddddd the FB scores. That helps noone :(

 

[Wooderson]

I really hate fullbacks.

I hate sports 

 

[Tool]

Well that sucked.

 

[Tool]

Aannnndddddd the FB scores. That helps noone :(

It helps everyone playing against Bell.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Good point 

 

[rockaction]

It helps everyone playing against Bell.

True. 

 

[Dez]

Really ??????

I have Roeth + Bell combo in the FFPC and DFWC trying to move up the ladder for bigger money and I was like good 1 of them will score............

 

[The General]

Yates having quite the game here.

 

[rockaction]

This is an utter disaster of both a game and for my fantasy team. Hunter and Nix. 

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF.  

 

[Short Corner]

Oh, I know that. I just haven't played on it, nor knew that there were rubber pellets in it these days.  

It's been that way for at least 15 years.  Makes it so thereis more give, ie less grab.  I tore my ankle up on the old carpet stuff when I dragged my foot on a crossover step and the turf grabbed it.  

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Cmon Ben

 

[Pip's Invitation]

-1 passing yards in almost a half. Eesh.

 

[JaxBill]

Heinicke?

He owes me money!

 

[BobbyLayne]

Yates having quite the game here.

That the explain for Hopkins? Haven’t seen a snap.

I’m in a coin flip in the 3rd place game. My Bell & JuJu v. his HOU. Down 10.52 at the half. Hmmm now that I look at it again I think 50-50 is wrong I should win this easily.

The Finals are 98% projected winner. #1 seed has Miller. #5 seed (Gurley owner) is up 9.89 at the half & has Ben, DeAndre, Bryant, & Boswell.

Back to slicing honey baked ham...
