Cousins' looked like he was struggling his ass off to throw the ball 15-20 yards. So is Peyton, but then he's old as shit and his arms, legs, and neck are about to fall off.

No, Colt McCoy time. RG\QB3 still wasn't active last night.

When looked at independent of game circumstances, Cousins' numbers are a bit alarming: 29 turnovers over his last 17 games and two interceptions or more in eight of his 17 starts. In three games against the division-rival Giants, Cousins has thrown one touchdown and has eight picks.
Damn.
RG3 time!
Go Packers!

49ers dumb down playbook due to QB.

Up there in the sky, it's a bird ... it's a plane ... it's a goddamned drone.

That author is a pussy. Perhaps he'd like to travel back in time to 100 years ago...
Two Yale defenders bore down on the helpless Burr, one of whom, Jim Quill, punched him in the face, shattering his nose. The other player, according to John Sayle Watterson's College Football: History, Spectacle, Controversy, citing contemporary newspaper accounts, "delivered a body blow with his feet which knocked Burr 'senseless.'" That sounds an awful lot like a drop-kick. No foul was called on the play.
...
But if the number of deaths remains a useful and malleable fact even now, 109 years later, the deaths themselves have been forgotten. How exactly did 18 football players—or 19 or 13 or 21—die in 1905?

Football used to result in death, it doesn't anymore except in extreme circumstances. Last dude I remember dying was Corey Stringer, and that was heat stroke at preseason camp about 15 years ago.

They have to be, right? I'm not watching the game, but I'm seeing the score.

And of course, with Ben as my #1 QB .... sigh

Until that last pick, Josh McCown didn't look horrible. He wasn't great either...

I don't understand the whole "He gives us the best chance to win" thinking. He might, but you might as well see what Manziel has and either cut bait or cultivate.

Big Ben going down sucks. We're without Gradkowski too, so Vick is the guy unless Ben's injury is minor. I give us no shot without Ben.

I don't know that QB is your biggest problem when the Raiders are lighting you up like that.

The Raiders beat Baltimore too, which would be more impressive if they weren't 0-3.

Cash league:

Getting my ass beat. Chris Ivory was "active" and played zero snaps. Forsett is getting benched, period. Meanwhile, Ryan Mathews and Darren Sproles each have 16 plus points on my bench. Wtf? If Philly's offense truly wakes up, I might start winning. Longer Demarco's hurt, better off I am. Would've been good to know his injury status before the 1pm game. Fucking Chip Kelly. Fuck you and your pregame warmups.

Catt league:

Had Newton, AJ Green, Rishard Matthews, and Greg Olsen. Win. Fucking finally.

1-2 start in both leagues.

Big Ben might be down for a count.

Wtf?
"The response I got was: 'Cam you're not old enough to get that call.' . . . I didn't think you had to have seniority to get a personal foul or anything like that," Newton said in his post-game press conference.

Official denies making the statement. This is the league that has sucked the cocks Brett Favre, Peyton Manning, and Tom "The Walking Pussy" Brady.

It looks like Detroit's getting screwed out of a TD because the official made the wrong call.

If he made that comment, I would assume it was a JOKE.

It was the right call regardless.

4-6 weeks without Ben. Shit.

Also, they announced DeMarco's being out prior to 1. I was able to pull him from my lineup.

I started Doug Martin and TY Yelton for a whopping 7 points, yet still find myself 33 points up on an undefeated team in our league. He has Rogers left and I have Crosby. Why? Because Brees got hurt, so I picked up Dalton and his 42 points today, plus Steve Smith went off and I played him because Delante Adams was questionable.

Sometimes you have to let the universe set your lineup for you!

Pathetic ass team!!

The supposed strength of our team, the defense is getting owned! Rookie WRs making our 3 pro bowl secondary look like a scout team. No name RBs running for 150 yds week after week!

3-13 will be par for the course.

Wanna listen to some good radio this morning? Its all doom and gloom over here!

I was not paying attention, and did not.

But I made a nice flan for my wife's birthday, so I've got that going for me.

Won1 game, lost 2. My fantasy leagues are as over as the Redskins' playoff hopes.

Would have been great if the new York jokes didn't lie about ivory's status.
