I've long been a defender of Capers, but even I've run out of patience. There were understandable caveats, especially last season, when it comes to injuries (we were regularly down to our 4th and 5th choice corners) but our passing defence has long been a joke. Plus while it's rare, when we let...

JG has got them competitive in his early stages. 2nd season - especially in a Shanahan offense - is where it'll tell though. Not quite ready to annoit him special just yet. Of course, that assumes he's resigned by the 9ers... The James non-TD was a good call but it's a nonsense rule, and we've...

Agreed. I hated the concept of these colour rush uniforms, but I begrudgingly admit that some of them look great. And yeah the nods to old proper uniforms ticks the box too. At what point do the Broncos admit they're going to bring back Brock for 2018, as tbh he's looked the safest of the three...

That's eight... eight... starting QBs done for the year. This has been an enjoyable season, but would have liked to see more teams at full strength heading into playoffs time. A real shame.

For once it seems like the latest round of suspensions were about right. Jujus hit was hard but fine, but yeah he got it for the taunting more than anything else, and rightly so. Yeah I'm still not convinced by Steelers either. Can easily see Patriots coasting to the SB again.

Watson and Robinson's injuries finally took their toll. I'm the only 7-6 team to miss out on the proper playoffs :(. Can I ask that for next season teams that are tied are separated on points scored? Much fairer than a completely arbitrary h2h record.

Only thing I'd read on Webb was him only ever practising with the 3rd stringers, which tells you all you need to know about their opinion of him compared to Geno. Everyone is seemingly chucking McAdoo under the bus but in reality they've largely drafted badly for years now and from the quotes...

Agreed on if you're benching Eli, it should be for Webb not Smith. I dunno, Eli's not been the only issue there by far but I don't think it's a given that in a new and better team suddenly we see one of his decent seasons again. Maybe some team will pay him for a season for that chance, but I...

Still don't buy the Steelers. Given the goose egg the previous week was surprised we did that well at Pittsburgh, can see that secondary getting exposed come playoffs. Was gutting to lose to a last second FG like that, especially given the length. Hundley though has at least now shown he can be...

Echo sentiments on Tyrod. Underrated QB even by the Bills, at least until last night. A game manager but one with big playmaking ability with his legs, which sticks him in the middle rankings of starters. Tyrod has thrown 14 interceptions in his 37 game Bills career I looked up yesterday...

Lost my first 4 games, then have won my next 6. On a roll despite losing Robinson and then Watson...

I dunno, I'm not convinced Benjamin is actually that good, big bloke who can run but not great hands nor standout separation. They get a 3rd and change now rather than what they'd likely get in return when he hits FA. On paper it does weaken them, but wouldn't surprise me at all to see a change...

Awful news. Texans were such fun to watch... Luck going to IR too. Luck, Rodgers, Watson, Watt, Johnson, Robinson, Beckham...

Ajayi seemed cheap, but the word was he's been a bad egg behind the scenes and given his knee issues they probably weren't going to renew his deal in 18 months. Comp pick value given the low salaries for RBs prob wouldn't have been more than a 4th, so they took a 4th now. McCarron for a 2nd and...

Makes a lot of sense both sides. Pats get a likely high 2nd in 2018 for a guy who at best they'd get low 3rd round comp value in 2019 if theyd waited til the end of the season. 9ers get an expensive half season rental to see how good he is before paying open market value. If he's worth paying...

Terrible news. Wasn't aware if he was ill, but he was a staple of me and countless others getting into NFL. Sad stuff. I know its just a smiley, but applying tribal glee in seeing the very best players in the league getting badly injured just because they play for a rival, seems weird to me...

We've had a torrid time with injuries all year and obviously this makes it exponentially worse. Really needs the Defence to up it's game though that seems ever unlikely. Perhaps it's more likely a case of hoping Jones and Ty can do enough on the ground to give enough time to Hundley, as our...

Baffles me how the NFL, with the history of fudged investigations and all the resources in the world, still can't seem to follow a proper procedure. And this of course lets someone they've deemed as a domestic abuser then take the field. Baffling how the NFL never seems to learn.

Tbh I hope the Panthers bottom out. With the switch at GM back to the guy who got them into the cap trouble of not so long ago, they're asking for it. Draft wise though I do think they've (or Gettleman, at least) done the right thing to surround Newton with extra options, as although it's good...

I'd be willing to part with a decent receiver, i.e. Cobb or Brown, and one of my defences in exchange for a good defence option...
