How bad are Philly fans? Stat just flashed during the game: since the stadium opened, eagles have won more on the road.

To quote the article I just read, "Weeden's always looked better in relief than starting."

Dance rock band may salvage Redskins trademark.
The decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., vacates the refusal by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to register the name of the Asian-American rock band, The Slants. It could also affect the decision by the agency to cancel the trademarks of the National Football League's Washington Redskins.

I'm in my cash league ff championship. My RB choices are James White, Ivory, Mathews, Riddick, and maybe Joique Bell or Bilal Powell. Thinking not ivory since he's got the Pats. I want bell because it's the fucking Niners and White. Also got detroit's D for the same reason. I'm a bit worried Seattle will fold because the Rams seem to have their number all the time. But Wilson and Baldwin are too hot to bench.

The Pro Bowl selections are such a sham.

Joe Thomas made his 9th consecutive pro bowl on name alone, yet I've never seen him false start, hold and let our QB's get blindsided more times in my life.

Alex Mack?? really? this dude looked like he was on roller skates all year long. Every single nose tackle literally had this guy pushed 3 yards into the backfield if it was a run or pass play.

So Cleveland sends two offensive lineman to the Pro Bowl, yet they yielded the worst running game in the league and have let up the second most sacks... Sounds about right.

Then to top it off "Big Play Gary Barnidge" gets an alternate and Travis Kelce gets selected over him?!?? Look at the numbers alone.

Gary: 68rec-930yds-9TD Travis: 65rec-820-4TD

Looks like Gary had a better year to me, and its not like Travis Kelce is a household name either. I never even heard of the guy until last year.

Wow. That's some weak-ass bullshit. Barny's the only dude in Cleveland that's been consistent this year.

Hah.
On the heels of Norman's 60-minute slap fest with Odell Beckham in Week 15, Falcons wide receivers Julio Jones and Roddy White openly questioned the Pro Bowler's toughness and attributed his reputation as a "lock-down corner" to Carolina's defensive scheme.
...
"I know Julio is leading right now, receivers wise," Norman said, via ESPN.com. "Roddy, I think, is their fifth receiver coming in behind the tight end and running backs.

"I think he has one reception for a touchdown this year, so we're going to try to hold him out as much as we can."

Daily fantasy leagues: now illegal in Illinois.

And Baldwin has a hamstring issue, just in time for Sunday.

Final ff lineup decision: Ryan Mathews at Washington on Saturday or joique bell playing frisco? Ryan seems to be the bet for lead back in his committee while bell's got real potential for garbage time.

Mack is getting out of Dodge.
"I will say that winning is really important to me," Mack said Wednesday, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain Dealer.


Looking like Megatron won't be in Murder-ville next year.

Fucking Baldwin is a game-time decision and I only got one other WR available that's healthy. Fortunately, they both play in the same set. But my backup's going against Green Bay.
