I completely agree. NBC is smart.

I've heard that game did monster ratings. 3 of the four women in my family were watching it, and they would never have watched it otherwise.

Looks like Matt Canada created a burner account too.

That confirmation address is a dead giveaway.

The Steelers have a bye week after playing the Ravens this weekend. I'm guessing Canada is coaching for his job. Then again, a professionally well run team would fire a person performing this badly, and Tomlin doesn't run a team well.

This is one of her better ones lately.

Viewership across NBC’s platforms among girls aged 12-17 rose 53% from the average of the previous three weeks of “Sunday Night Football,” according to the network. The audience among women aged 18-24 increased 24% and 35% among women aged 35 and older, resulting in a total viewership increase of approximately 2 million female viewers.

Not bad for an average viewership of 26.7 million.

The Commanders' remaining schedule doesn't look so terrible any more:

Ws - Bears, Falcons, Giants, Patriots, Giants, Rams, Jets
Ls - Eagles, Seahawks, Cowboys, Cowboys, Dolphins, 49ers

Would make them 9-8

You're lucky they're not facing the Steelers and the best offense in the NFL.

Defense. They played smash mouth and rattled Watson. I assure you the offense didn't do much that day.

Oh right, and injured a star player because they are dirty.

I would hope so, otherwise why are we paying them?

Perhaps someone in Chicago heard all the criticism and decided to stop trying to fit a square peg in a round hole?

#FireRon is trending on Twitter.

He should have gone for two and the win last week.

Magic takes Commanders' intensity to task.

I like Magic, and I like that this criticism was well received.

The one exception is Howell. You can't say he wasn't intensely trying to win that game.
