Aikman and Buck usually look like the choose from a pile of Michael Irvin's clothes that he doesn't wear because they aren't quite loud enough.

The face punching was just the wakeup call Geno needed!

Yes, and not only that, but apparently it's also responsible for the ratings drop.

Rodgers channeling his inner Buster Bluth. Nice.

Well…Pagano seems like a pretty decent guy. Unless you're a Colts fan, obviously.

Tom Coughlin already had that name.

Speaking of silly rules involving end zones: downing punts. I think I've bitched about this before, but the rules make zero sense. If the ball hasn't broken the plane of the end zone but any of the player's body part has, that's a touchback. If the ball is touched by the kicking team and possessed somewhere else,…

Down 2 scores in the 4th? Better start eating the clock!

I've always thought 3 years was an appropriate amount of time to wait before evaluating a coach (year 1 is a freebie, year 2 should see improvement, year 3 better be good), but the Chip Kelly Era does not seem to be off to a great start. Baalke, however, has had plenty of time to prove himself, and he's been…

That was top-notch Fishering, for sure.

For reasons I'm still not sure of, I actually watched a lot of last night's game. No amazing Drew Stanton celebrations. What a waste.

It's kind of reassuring to know that everyone else's kids are the same little shits that your own are, right?

15 years into the past? Or the future?

Best case: he got it out of his system.
Worst case: week 17, 2015.

Congratulations, I assume you're on the Browns' shortlist.

You still with us Pops? This is a safe place.

It's times like these that I'm glad I'm something of a Patriots fan. Not so much because they're winning (though that's part of it), but because if I weren't, it must be so goddamn infuriating to watch stuff like this happen.

Actually, now that you bring it up, I'm wasn't sure if they do or not. I know the medical personnel have the authority to stop the game and the refs are the mechanism by which they do that. I did some quick searching and the term that keeps coming up is that "officials" can remove a player for concussion protocol,…
