I'm drinking beer

and I will probably needs lot’s of it for this game.

My God, 0-16. I can’t really come up with the appropriate words to describe it. I sincerely hope they beat the Packers today (of course, I always hope the beat the Packers) and would really like to see a road win in GB.

If I can only wish for one thing for Christmas, a win today is it. I do not want the Lions to be the worst team of all time in the NFL. There are plenty of other teams 1-15. I could take that. JUST WIN, BABY!

The weather in Buffalo is nuts

http://blogs.nfl.com/2008/12/28/epic-conditions-at-ralph-wilson-stadium/

This is really screwing with my championship game for fantasy football. I have 4 running backs in that game but don’t know if I should start 1 or 2 or 3 of them. They won’t be able to pass it, but how effective will they be running it?

That's my problem. In the big game

but worried K Smith could dress and not end up playing a lot. I think Smith could eat GB alive today if he plays the whole game.

When you play “franchise” you not only no longer have Roy Williams, but you don’t have the Cowboys’ draft picks either… one positive, Jon Kitna is not on the roster anymore if you have the update rosters

I really think that Cherilus could end up being a solid lineman but at guard. Also Ernie simms is a force on the Defense.

Definitely will write a story about this in the next couple days...

But Parcells apparently can opt out of his Dolphins contract, and although this is a pipe dream:

Among the teams sources say are on Parcells’ radar are the New York Jets, Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns and the Oakland Raiders. However, if Parcells’ son-in-law, New England Patriots vice president Scott Pioli, is interested in any of those jobs, Parcells is unlikely to wind up with that team, Mortensen reported.

I can’t even imagine Parcells. That would be amazing.

They should just not play defense!

Put the offense on the field to play defense!

How maddening would that be if you were the offense?

Seriously, you go and do your job, then the Defense goes right on out and Shits the Bed!

Its like the Defense wants to lose the game

and the offense wants to win. They are playing against each other and the Packers.

Cason is tackled out of bounds after a short gain

Gotta pick up more than a few yards.

Well, the season is officially 'totally fucked'

now we wait and see what that dumbass, Ford Sr, does to fuck it up even further. I’ll be checking back in here for a while. We’ll see what Ford does. That could determine whether I just stop watching football until he finally dies or not.

Hats off to Sean Y.

Sean—Better Days Ahead!!!! Thanks for the excellent Game Threads, I enjoyed all the comments/analysis and comic relief from all the participants. Thanks again!

p.s.—I think we will all feel better on Monday when WCF fires the whole lot of them and replaces them with trained chimps, it will certainly be an upgrade.

Well at least the Cowboys aren't going to make the playoffs

Eagles lead 27-3 at the half. Dallas looks awful.

Nice play there, though

Witten to Owens.

I hate Dallas, though. Hope they lose big.
