Yes indeed. We've been on the end of a few drubbings this season. Being 42-0 down against Miami at HT wasn't great.
Texans v Titans is a decent game for the neutral at the moment with 3 turnovers in 17 minutes of football.
And then there's always JJ Watt knocking seven bells out of Mettenberger every time he lines up against him.

At 14-10 up at the start of Q4, are daves143 Falcons going to ruin the Panthers unbeaten season?

Am so bloody nervous, my dinner got launched across the room when julio scored that incredible touchdown!!!
I'm having a little colonial overlord chuckle to myself about Belichick's 'Established 1960' sweater.
I reckon there's a tin of something in the back of my kitchen cupboard older than the New England Patriots.

No need to be nervous any more! Great win for the Falcons.
No favours from Miami, so it's as you were in the AFC South. All down to the last match against the Jags at NRG stadium next week.

Tomlin only has himself to blame unfortunately. His stubbornness to continue to play Blake and not address the secondary, his constant time management issues (we could have really used those 2 timeouts we blew early on in the 2nd half) and the way his teams regularly lose against poor teams. Need some help from the Bills next week.

Or the field goal we didn't take on the first drive! I like plenty about Tomlin but to not make the playoffs this year with the talent in this squad, injuries or no injuries is a disaster.

There's a lot to like about Tomlin. As a leader he's great and the guy has never had a losing season and been to the Superbowl twice so he's clearly not an idiot but some of his decisions baffle me. His "Don't live within your fears" attitude seems to change with the wind. The 2-point conversions this season and the 4th down call today being a prime examples, no real strategy about them just seems to be gut instinct.
It's a huge off season for us next year, if they can sort out the secondary in the draft, work with the young edge rushers to get some production from those high draft picks and get a healthy Bell back there's reason for optimism next year. You're correct in saying however that this year is a bust if we don't make the playoffs, which is likely.

It's frustrating, we're really not a million miles off a championship team here. I agree the secondary has to be a priority but I'd always rather have a good front 7 and a poor secondary than the other way round. I'd be really surprised if we didn't use at least 2 high draft picks on it though (I seem to remember saying that last year!)
Assuming we don't qualify for the playoffs this year, it will be 5 years without a post season win, which I think I'm right in saying hasn't happened since 67-71. No matter how much we like Tomlin, I can't see his reign surviving a 6th. There are huge expectations and a roster that should be capable of fulfilling them.
Jnr will need surgery to be removed from his christmas present Rodgers jersey.
It's a handsome bit of kit and certainly embarrasses all his Albion replica tops.
Wrong post quote, but you can make sense of that!!

Think the Rooneys would be very reluctant to fire Tomlin, you never know though. Let's hope Rex has his team up for next week and we get the job done. Also an outside shot of getting in if Denver lose out and we beat the Browns.

Rams doing us a favour and keeping our faint miracle chances of playoffs alive!
