Power Rankings
BIGGEST MOVERS
Up 6 TEXANS
Down 7 RAMS

1	Ravens	They continue to roll up big numbers on offense and the defense is improving by the week. This team is a legitimate contender.	2	7-2-0
2	Patriots	They come off their bye licking their wounds from the loss to the Ravens last time out. You can bet they will get past it quickly.	2	8-1-0
3	49ers	They didn't play well on offense against the Seahawks, but it's just one game. They still lead the division and the NFC.	2	8-1-0
4	Packers	They got the offense back on track against Carolina. Here's an idea: Don't party on road trips.	1	8-2-0
5	Saints	That was a terrible loss to the Falcons at home. The bye did this team no good. What happened to the offense?	3	7-2-0
6	Vikings	That was a big-time road victory for Kirk Cousins against the Cowboys. Dare I say it: Cousins is in the MVP conversation.	5	7-3-0
7	Seahawks	The division is still up for grabs after that victory at San Francisco. It wasn't pretty, but they toughed it out like a lot of good Seattle teams.	1	8-2-0
8	Texans	They come off the bye with a lead in the division, but face a tough road game against the Ravens. Can they contain Lamar Jackson ?	6	6-3-0
9	Bills	At 6-3, they are still the Wild-Card leader. But they've lost two of the last three games and haven't looked good doing so. They need more offense.	--	6-3-0
10	Raiders	Yes, they are in the playoff race. Kudos to Jon Gruden for the job he's done.	5	5-4-0
11	Eagles	They come off the bye hoping their momentum carries over. It won't be easy to keep it going with a tough home game against the Patriots.	5	5-4-0
12	Chiefs	At 6-4, they still lead the division. But they have to get things fixed on defense. The run defense was awful against the Titans.	2	6-4-0
13	Cowboys	Just when they take a big step forward, they always seem to take one in the other direction. Is that coaching?

Wife is making me watch #3 MSU vs #12 Seton Hall

 

[GA_Boater]

So this homer switch to FOX after this thread about 2 minutes ago. Just in time to a pick by the Browns.

I'll check back tomorrow cuz I'm the Jinx!

 

[WIMUSKY]

The last few seconds of the game, wow....... Crazy stuff.....

 

[GA_Boater]

Just watched the video. Yikes!

I am sorry, but you cannot rip off someone’s helmet and hit them over the head with it. The whole game was chippy and there were several unsportsmanlike calls that were missed. Steelers lost 2 receivers because of unsportsmanlike hits (targeting) but only one was called, with an ejection... but Johnson left the game bleeding from his left ear! The Browns v Steelers is never a pretty game, but this one was another “over the top” one. I respect Pouncey and DeCastro for defending their QB, but kicking him in the head and punching him was a little much. The NFL is going to have a hay day with suspensions from this game ...

 

[WIMUSKY]

It will be interesting to see what happens to the Brown guy. They need to drop the hammer on him. The coach should have already said ba bye for now.....

 

[GA_Boater]

The NFL will be making some big announcements soon. Pouncey will be on the list, kicking just ain't in the cards.

 

[aspeck]

There were a plethora of cheap hits throughout the game ... it is Browns v Steelers ... but the League needs to go through the film and give out many suspensions. Kitchens lost control of the team, so maybe even a team forfeit would be in order ... it has to be something that hurts or this will continue on ... these 2 team play each other in 2 weeks ... something needs to be done so there is not a repeat.

AS this abomination was happening on live TV I was screaming at the tube ban him for 5 games. Later on I was calling for a ban for the rest of the season. Today I say a lifetime ban from the NFL, that would sent a real point to the rest of the league. Welcome to Canada stupid and your 80K annual salary, in Canuck funny money you idiot. A game that will live on in infamy.

DeCastro or maybe it was Pouncy, whomever, he doesn't have a future in MMA or Boxing. He threw 2 or 3 rights to the head of stupid from a foot away and missed every one. Convictions have been successful for fights in Hockey before and that's a hockey fight that happens almost every game. It's up to the Cleveland DA to go forward with charges for assault of the Pitt QB. This sad story isn't over by a long shot.

Many great match ups today. I gave my wife an inch of money so I will have the big TV for a few hours at least. I'm getting 5 games at 1PM on our Sat provider. It was an inch of 5's with a 20 on top and bottom!

 

[bassman284]

Well, time to try to figure out which prohibitive favorites are going to get whacked today.

You dog! :rofl:

Another blown PI call after a challenge. Oilers receiver was clearly interfered by the Raven defender.

Oilers? Lived too long in Houston. :doh:

 

[WIMUSKY]

Vikes forgot they have a game today....

 

[Old Ironmaker]

I have a NFL rules question you guys might know the answer to. I know if a kick off goes out of the field of play there is a penalty to the kicking team. If I recall there is also a penalty to the punting team if the punt goes out somewhere within the field of play. Am I losing it, again? Maybe the Comical Football League, the CFL.

PI has been reviewable up here for a few years. The CFL also moved point after atempts, used to be called converts, to the 35 years before the NFL did. I think the NFL watches how some things they are thinking about doing after the CFL puts them in the rules.

When did they change what was called the "1st down marker" to "The point of gain" or some stupid thing?

My Bills are actually scoring TD's not all field goals today and the D has 3 sacks in the 1st quarter, they are playing lights out on defence. Ok, ok it's the Fish we are playing in summer like weather but Fitz is no slpouch QB when he is on., he's not on today, yet. This Allen kid is improving every game. If he stays healthy the NFL had better watch out for this raw talent that is getting ripper and ripper every week. Not many watch Bills games other than die hard members of the Bills Mafia and this kid that has a rocket for an arm. Watch him for a bit and you may see what I see.

Vikes forgot they have a game today....

Same with Houston and Carolina. I would add Miami, but they forgot a long time ago. Wait a sec - Miami scored!

 

[WIMUSKY]

Iron, no penalty if the punt goes out of bounds

 

[WIMUSKY]

Vikes have 47 total yds for the half....
