Down to 16.7 points from Terrence West for a tie. NE has been solid against the run.

Fisher finally fired.

Cowherd had someone on last week who said the Jim Harbaugh to LA rumors were legit. That means there are a least talks going on...

Maybe they can find someone who'll bring back a passing attack for the first time since the days of Marc Bulger.

Dunno what happens in a tie.

Ironically, I am gifted the game by the Pats' terrible special teams muffing a punt and a kick return in succession, both of which the Ravens converted into TDs.

It figures that Bell goes off for 47 points on my bye week.

In other news, Fisher got fired and Eric Dickerson immediately started following Jim Harbaugh on Twitter.

2017 London games announced.

We're sending the Browns. Is that an act of war?

The Browns, Jaguars, Dolphins and Rams will be the home teams.
Signs point to yes.

No, we're kind of hoping they all get left over there and forget to come back.

No, but from your response there's really only one choice. I look forward to the inevitable preseason Bridgewater v. Bradford slapfight.

Loser championship game in the pussy league:

QB: Rodgers at Chicago
RB: ?
RB: DeMarco at KC
WR: Tyrell Williams hosting Oakland
WR: Davante Adams at Chicago
FLEX: Mike Wallace hosting Philly
TE: Jordan Reed hosting Carolina's D that gets lit by TEs
D: hopefully whoever's playing at Jackonsville this week
K: Vinatieri at Minnesota

The question is who gets the last RB spot: Theo Riddick at NYG or Ryan Mathews at Baltimore's #1 ranked rushing defense? I'm looking into getting Bilal Powell and hoping the Jets are cautious with Forte.

While I figure two years is too soon for him to leave, he's not there forever.

Also, I don't buy anyone's word until after bowl season.

San Diego pisses off Dean Spanos.
That’s the word that a source with knowledge of the situation applied when characterizing the idea of a 99-year lease at $1 annual rent floated by a group of San Diego council members.
