Eastern or West Coast time? You should know how big of a difference that makes in the odds!

Ha! It's all written in the house rules and the house has the right to change those rules at any time.

Looks like moms will be driving tonight.

That is moms! (Kidding Richard).

I think I'm most happy for CJF... Sometimes he drives me nuts but I'm glad we have him.

If he read this board from the first half, he'd be doing a LB99esque victory lap. At least he'd be justified in doing so. I was frustrated at his lack of production early on but he came up monstrously clutch on those 4th down plays. Without those, we're 5-1.

For sure. But that’s how it goes. Players deserve criticism when they fail to perform, and they deserve praise when they come up big. They would have been justified in benching him and busting him down the depth chart, but hopefully, this will be the start of a turnaround for him, personally, on the season.

Julian Fleming:

Played so poorly in the first half, that he absolutely deserved to be benched for the remainder of the game.

All credit to him: he was in for the most crucial snaps at the end of the game and made two clutch catches to convert on 4th and 7, and 4th and 10.

Has to be feeling some good redemption vibes tonight.

A player has a bad half and deserves to get benched? Thank God you aren't a coach.

No, by all means, you definitely keep throwing ineffective players out there. Especially the ones that were non-factors through the first 5 games. People who subscribe to the “put the best 11 players on the field” philosophy are clearly idiots.

Using your logic, Sahaydak would still be our kicker. Let’s see you reason your way outta’ that one.
