Bad news: I am tied with my opponent and he's projected to win.

My team completely shat the bed, and one of my players managed to get ejected. Sooooo, I'm out.

Oh man, just watched the last 6 minutes of gametime on that Browns-Raiders game. Heartbreaker.

My fantasy team is currently Mel Brooks. C'mon Miracle!

Tell me about it. Tough pill to swallow right there.

I guess the miracle will have to wait until Christmas day vs. the Packers.

Steelers are 7-6-1 with @Chiefs, Browns (on MNF), and @Ravens to go.

10-6-1 is highly unlikely.
9-7-1 could happen based on the entire AFC North's injury/covid statuses.
7-9-1 is impossible due to the deal Tomlin made for his soul.
8-8-1 is what's going to happen.

You know how hard it is to finish .500 in this league? Nearly impossible in this league with 17 games! Yet, don't count Tomlin out!

GENIUS

When I get back to hell, heads are going to roll...

Bruce Arians has zero integrity.

Bears ripping the officials.

I agree with the Bears. The refs last night weren't horribly bad, but there are too many rules now that seem to get called in favor of one team or another. For example, Justin Fields took a beating last night, but there were rarely flags thrown. Meanwhile, if a defender runs by Tom Brady and creates too much of a breeze, that's a flag.

Has he tried being Tom Brady?

WTFers vs... Dallas had a similar issue. WTFers D player BARELY touched Dak, and it's 15 yards. D player launches himself into our QB's KNEES AFTER the ball was thrown, nothing.

Put him in NE and I'll bet you he has the same or better record as Mac Jones. Watching SF play the other day and there is NO WAY you can tell me that Shanahan doesn't have buyers remorse over Trey Lance. They gave up a LOT to get a guy who can't even find the field over Jimmy G. Meanwhile, Justin Fields is legit, has a great attitude, works hard, his teammates love him, and would have fit Shanahan's system perfectly.

Sorry, mini-rant there about how bad Chicago is and coached.

Heard some interesting rumbling...maybe by Simmons or Cowherd? I don't remember. Anyway, hiding in all the Urban drama is the fact that "the most can't miss prospect since Andrew Luck" isn't exactly playing awesome in Jacksonville. He's not a bust, but he also has not been very impressive. In Jacksonville's shoes, I would have never taken him after hearing his interview where he talked about not needing or loving football. I want a guy who eats, sleeps, and shits football like Brady, Manning, etc.

I need 21+ points from Gibson tonight or my fantasy season (in my primary league) is over.

In my other league I'm up 4 points on a guy who still has Ruggs in his lineup... (work league)

Well, we can both celebrate the end of our season tonight.

Well, I take it back, WTFers decided Gibson is the only player on the team.

I'm down 5 points right now. He wins a tie breaker, so I need 6 points. That's 60 yards or a TD.

ESPN says he has a 99% chance of winning.

Posted: **Tue Dec 21, 2021 9:56 pm**

Down 3 with 3 minutes left...

Well, the first quarter was in your favor.

Missed it by that much...

Oh well. It was a decent year. I'll get some money back.

Bad year for NFL players that drive themselves.

Analytics betray Catt!

Seriously, this is just delicious vindication.

Another Steeler beat writer joins the growing dissent.
