Outstanding win. Stick that in your pipe.

...but at what cost...

 

[kieran_vale]

Still won though, so fuck the Pats!!!

We should be your favourite team for the next couple of weeks given we are playing a couple of your wildcard rivals. Not that doing the Dolphins any favours is something I particularly want us to do.

Rams will need to run the table to get to 7-9 now, could be one of the great stories of Fishers career.

Tannehill apparently torn his ACL. I'm not his biggest fan but he's still better than Matt Moore, disastrous.

Correct if I'm wrong, but the hit didn't get flagged either.

No it didn't, pathetic officiating. Horrible hit from Campbell.

Fisher fired at last. Got to marvel at how he kept his job this long really.

To be fair, he had f all to work with and the QB was gash

For 5 seasons in a row.

 

[Camborne Gills]

Yes and not even with Tannehill ffs

 

[kieran_vale]

Will never tire of seeing the highlights of that Baltimore playoff game a couple of years ago. That pass to Lafell for the winning TD was one of the most picture perfect throws you'd ever see.

Always wary of the Ravens though, they do have our number especially at Foxborough strangely enough.

 

[kieran_vale]

Brilliantly done Shea McLellin, timed that leap perfectly.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Heading into beatdown territory here.

 

[kieran_vale]

Could be, when even Flacco's usual moonball hoping for a DPI call doesn't work got to feel optimistic I think.

Best performance by our D all year, not that its a particularly high bar.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Jinxed! Fairly hideous throw from TFB there.....

 

[kieran_vale]

I know it was a bit of an anti-climax with the false start but like Harbaughs thinking going for it on fourth there in his own half. Ballsy.

Overall pretty pleasing, terrible throw in the red zone by TFB aside.

 

[kieran_vale]

Kneejerk reaction fucking cut Jones

Just not acceptable to do that.

I agree to an extent. For me though it comes down to how good Gurley really is - since teams with a very good defence (which is what the Rams should be) and a good RB often get to within sniffing distance or occasionally in playoffs even with a below average qb, which theyve not been near. If Gurleys not the real deal though, then perhaps their record isnt far off what their talent level is.

However, though the offense dont give their defence much help, their defence is now failing too. Change had to made.

How tight was fantasy football this year? 2-5 all finish with the same 9-5 record, and unfortunately for me, I'm the one that misses out on the championship play offs. Doh!

 

[Renegade]

I came 6th after starting 0-4, just had a brutal run of opponents at the start scoring 100+ every week. Finished 4th in points scored and 3rd in the breakdown, 'tis a cruel beast. Ah well, I had a good two year run of making the final and winning last year, can't complain too much. :'(

Oh and Tom Brady is good at football. </analysis>

 

[Aberstone]

Rumours abound that the Raiders will play the Patriots on MNF in Mexico City next season.

 

[Bobbin']

Worst bunch of games in London yet. Don't think I'll be bothering next year.

 

[.V.]

The Browns?!?! Oh the humanity.

 

[Renegade]

Yuck. Think I'll try for the Saints vs Dolphins and Cardinals vs Rams as a second priority. Depending on who the new coach is, could be an interesting game, plus a divisional rivalry should provide a decent atmosphere.

 

[Aberstone]

I'll be at the other two Renegade but only because they feature divisional foes. Really poor team choice next year.

 

[Tom_CUFC]

Well I disagree, the Browns game looks interesting all of a sudden......

I will renew my season tickets but probably try and flog them for either the Rams or Jags game, 4 games in 6 weeks is a bit more than I want to commit to.

 

[Lamby]

At least I don't have to fly 5000 miles to see the Cards now! Why does it have to be at Twickers though

Ridiculously tight. I was 6th before the weekend and somehow jumped up to finish 2nd. Cowboy Builders were 5th and only jumped up to 4th so fuck knows how it's all decided.

You two are in the Loserbowl semis though so all is not lost.

Meanwhile in 1FF, i finished with the 3rd highest total yet finished 12th. Booooo

Shame that few people gave up early though, as it seemed to create gimmes down the stretch.

I quite liked the depth of the league this year in terms of team numbers, it made the waiver wire harder and made you plan ahead a lot more, but would be good next year to scale back a bit.

Loserbowl?!?! I had the same record as the team finishing 2nd

I did finish above Carel though, and that's what really counts, I think we can all agree
