As a life long patriots and buccaneers fan. It really is an amazing feeling.

Unbelievable


Chiefs couldn't even make a simple cupcake FG to win and Ravens make the most difficult FG to win.

Football Gods must be confused

What an absolutely brutal ending to that game. First the 4th & 19 conversion to get them down there with zero timeouts, but the kick. Ohhhhhh the kick. I can’t even imagine Lion fans having an emotional reaction to shit like this anymore. Just gotta stand up and look around like

That's pretty much the reaction. You become numb to it. You already know what's going to happen, you just don't know exactly how it will happen this week. It's just always something. About 15 years ago, I'd be pissed the rest of the day. Now I shake my head, laugh and then move on it from 5 minutes later. It's easier to accept when you know they have no chance of winning a super bowl.

Defense played great today but then gives up a 4th and 19. Baltimore had some big drops today that should have put the game away much earlier.

And to rub salt in the wound the refs missed a delay of game penalty the play before. He would have never attempted a 71 yard FG.....but then we probably would have just lost on a haily mary instead.

It’s glorious. Potential MVP this year. Fantastic defense. Going to the game next week.

Aren’t you a Seahawks fan? 9 straight winning seasons with 8 playoff appearances, 2 SB appearances with a win?

None of that woe is me from you Carl.

1-2 with a defense looking like swiss cheese. I don't have high hopes for this season. The defense is that bad. We're asking Bobby Wagner to literally do everything out there. Tre Flowers may be the worst CB in the NFL. WE're allowing QBs like Tannehill and Cousins to dissect us. It's just bad all around.

I went to the game on Sunday and got a close up view of the destruction. Why we play a zone defense with no pass rush blows my mind.

Hopefully we can figure it out because the NFC West is scary.

BYU does the same thing and I just don't get it. We rush 3 and drop 8 into zone. Giving any QB that much time allows them to find holes in zone defenses and they pick us apart. It's frustrating.

Looks like it could have easily been delay of game too? Feel for the Lions.
