Let's be real, too -- no fumble on the kickoff return and this doens't look like a disaster

The defense just needs some position to get a ton better to slow them down at all. Every play you can see where just one f***ing guy could have done something. Better LB play, better safety play, better DE play. Something

Briggs isn't play well. He just runs his right (healthy) shoulder into the blocker every time and blows by the play. I haven't seen him engage anyone with his left side all game

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 22, 2013 -> 08:30 PM) The ball hit the freakin ground on the snap, nothing he can do. You're ragging on Jay just because at the moment. I was talking about the previous play when I posted that The (non-snap) problem on the next one was Forte

Also, Forte's several totally blown pickups have totally killed those plays

Cutler needs to figure out what to do when there's a blitz for f***'s sake.

Drives like this needed to happen sooner, before we completely gassed our defense.

Because they snapped with 0 on the play clock, he f***ing throws it without reading the defense like he's still being timed.

Get the ball out!

Jay looks like f***ing s***.

We know the defense is bad. We also know that it will be twice is bad if they spend the entire game on the field. The offense can't play this bad or the defense will never have a chance.

If you could press the reset button on this game, would you kick it off with McCown under center?

Welp, this doesn't look good. Can McCown play defense?

Josh Phegley has only had acceptable offense in the minor leagues for half of a season, ever. Let's not act like he has some kind of great MiLB pedigree.

I think Tomlin did the right thing. Running the clock down and all that involved too much risk to leave 7 points on the board at that point.

Looking good...

Another bad call, jesus christ. Now in Detroit

This should be a blowout. Thanks refs.

So 1. Rule is written poorly. In this case, there's no reason GB would ever deserve the ball back. 2. They botch the fact that he did possess the ball, despite talking about it for over 10 minutes. and then 3. They miss the fact that he was f***ing DOWN BY CONTACT

Why not? Japanese folks love baseball as much as we do and he is almost definitely going to make more money for this season.

What do you think Shin Soo Choo would have gotten if he had hit the market a year ago? That is one of the first things I think about when evaluating a deal. When a guy's likely value jumps tremendously from one year to the next, especially at Choo's age, I tend to think the current value is too high.

I'm really glad I didn't accept the huge rate increase to keep my old plan without checking out the exchange, where I paid about 10 dollars more for a lot, lot better plan. I had a "good" plan already in that it's a lot for a pretty healthy young man like me, but my new one has the same deductible, lower out-of-pocket max, lower co-pays, my monthly med goes from $70 to $35 and my regular doctor visits to get that med go from $90 to $10. Even better is it's the same company where I saved a buttload of money by going to the exchange (BCBSIL). Also interesting that the available dental plans aren't too bad. I'm still mooching off my parents' for that though, where I add about $5 to their plan. Their plan sucks and requires me to get dental check-ups only on my infrequent visits home, but it works for now until I get coverage from my grad program. The requirement that all the companies give you a summary of benefits on the same kind of form is also great. Really helps you compare apples to apples. They also explain terms that a lot of folks won't understand. Co-pay means, coinsurance means that, these things are included in your deductible and these things are not. I'm also assuming the fact that many of these plans cover in-patient addiction services at no cost or 20% coinsurance is not out of the goodness of the hearts of the insurers and was required. I'm sure some people will be pissed they're paying for that, but reducing the barriers to getting help for people will offer society a nice-sized benefit. If you don't want people to be addicted to drugs, it's cool now that we're also willing to offer something beyond shame to get them out of that cycle.

If you're going to make an awfully offensive joke, at least make it funny. Sheesh. I can kind of sympathize in a perverse way with a really callous joke if it is fathomably funny. This one's a s***ty joke either way. Was never worth the risk.

I want a gif of Rayvonte going full cornholio after the buzzer
