Well, your D has woken up. And Ponder had a pretty good night.

Between the 3 TDs and not even 175 passing yards, I'd call it a wash.

I hope we got a fucking draft pick for giving Washington that last time. WTF? Can't believe they held on.

Naturally, Jordan Reed goes for 6/60 and a score against me when I'm playing the dude right behind me for best div record, with Gronk on bye.

You lose to the Vikes, your season is pretty much over.

I don't think so, but your team is looking much improved over years past.

I think you make the playoffs.

I don't mean dominate, but I expect we slow their "unstoppable" run game and force Kaep to make throws.

We'll see how that works out.

I've not seen Colin have a really good throwing game this year since week 1. He had a pretty ok game versus the Arizona Desert Birds in week 6. Week 1 was mostly Boldin torching the shit-tacular GB secondary, week 6 was Colin figuring out Vernon Davis could get lots of YAC if it took a linebacker and two safeties to bring him down. There's not going to be one Carolina safety or corner to pick on for the entire game. Then it becomes a matter of who blinks first: Newton or the Gore-Hunter RB combo. Think ToP could be huge because I could see a close game, then someone's D getting worn down and destroyed.

Second Vikings player (along with Jerome Felton) with drug problems this year. Not like he was doing much but Jennings and Carlson are going to get blanketed now. Jarius Wright. and Patterson move up a notch on the depth chart.

Today in the NFL:

Ben Tate now the man in Houston.

Well known Incognito talks more. I'm inclined to believe he's just a typical douchebag that's prone to losing his cool and doing remarkably stupid things in that state. That being said, there are indeed some motherfuckers you can't joke with. One of the former just met one of the latter and one party blew a whistle. Also, to paraphrase one of the Miami players, "It's bullshit if the coaches say they don't know about it. Hell, sometimes they tell us to toughen people up by doing that shit."

Big Ben trade rumours seemingly quashed.

None of this matters though because the hot garbage Carolina Offensive got off the plane.

This is going to be known as the week I ran out of WRs.

Roddy White, benched, did nothing.
Jennings, benched, did nothing.
Kenny Stills, benched, probably going to go off because of that.
Marvin Jones, started at WR2, does nothing.

Opponent had Brandon Marshall go off. I'm up by 3 with Welker + Woodhead in the remainder of the 4th plus Tim Wright Monday. He's got Dez Bryant and Witten. Should be noted that NO typically shuts down the opposing top wideout to the tune of sub-70 yards.

There's a chance Welker does some damage still or Wright nails Miami Monday night, but this pisses me off because now I'm back to tied for best league record.

Yeah, I had M Jones and my opponent had Marshall as well. I'm getting killed. 2nd best in the league at 85 points, and #1 is 152 points (Rams Defense, seriously?), who is my opponent.

Rodgers is out with a left collarbone injury, and backup Seneca Wallace left after the first series with a groin injury.

So Matt Flynn's leverage just went up.

Nice call. Not pretty, but a HUGE win for the Panthers.
