Tomlin fined.
If they lose draft picks, I'm hoping they fire him.
I like Tomlin, but I think his success has been more about riding the ship that he inherited more than anything he has done.
And just so we're clear:
Potentially affecting a single play: $100,000 fine.
Actually affecting multiple games over a few years, including Super Bowls: $500,000 fine.

Ace Sanders, Jaguars WR2 and my pick for breaking out next year. Looking like a slightly better QB than Case Keenum. How the fuck do you regress that badly since looking like Jesus walking on lava coming in to almost rescue shit in week 9 after Kubiak was felled by a mini-stroke? Every time he's played and Gary wasn't carted off by an ambulance, he sucked. Hmm, and Schaub is warming up. Fuck. Anyone hear "Taps?" Come the fuck on and keep feeding Andre. He's old but he can still do it.

Kubiak out. Case Keenum back in, probably just because he's not Schaub.

1) They had championship contender aspirations this year and have dropped 11 in a row.TheCatt wrote:Yeah, I don't really get the firing. He's done really well, imho. I guess it's rings or nothing.
2) I think any state besides Texas would let this slide. They probably fire high school coaches down there after 11 straight losses.

I don't understand the firing at this point either. Are you going to salvage your last 4 weeks to make the playoffs? No. So why fire him now? Why not wait until after the season?

Campbell starting. Betting Caleb backs him up. Good news for Josh Gordon unless Jason gets his bell rung again.

So, Minnesota v. Baltimore in driving snow. You'd figure the Vikes have it locked up except dome life has softened them up over the years. Looks like Torrey Smith ain't doing anything.

My 4 dudes going right now: combined 12 points. 11 is from the Bengals shutting out Indy. But come the fuck on, Torrey Smith and Gronk blanked for the first half by the Vikes and Browns respectively? WTF?

Torrey Smith: 1 catch ... Marlon fucking Brown, 8 catches. Come the fuck on. It's the fucking Vikes.
Then Gronk gets killed, word is his ACL is done. Hope Owen Daniels comes back next week because I got no other TEs. Half my team got me about 10 points this week. On the plus side, everyone else is doing respectably and the only dude my opponent has worth a shit right now is Larry Fitzy. Brees, Pierre Thomas, and DeAngelo are all going later and I'm done after Marshawn, Russel, Woody, and CJ. And fucking Shonn Greene has vultured two of my TDs. WTF?
