    ...damnit.

    I seem to remember a John Madden story from the 70s where someone did this to a game winning FG. So I'm guessing that's why the rule was added.

    Thanks!

    Weird that it wouldn't be allowed.

    EDIT: I guess I could see the argument that, if they wanted the minimum bar to clear to count as a field goal to be "as high as a defensive player can jump and reach," they'd just set the crossbar higher.

    Yes this is 4 years old. Read the last item. Now, if YT wasn't blocked this week, I'd dig up the play.

    I'm trying so hard to care about tonight's game.

    It was a game made for thursday.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    If it wasn't for Allen Hurns, I wouldn't even care that this was on.

    Edit: I mean, hell, if the World Series was on tonight, there'd be no decision to make.

    Okay if Khan doesn't go down to the locker room and fire Bradley at half time, I will be stunned. This is some awful play by a team that's clearly given up.

    Would taking Carr and dumping Manning be a good move rest of season?

    Eli has one good game for ff on the season and that was due to OBj going nuts. Carr seems to have a much higher floor. Am I seeing things right?

    Gus Bradley has never beaten a team with a winning record. That's a fucking skill.

    Maybe we can make a special division for just him and Jeff Fisher.

    Ugh... awful week. My entire fantasy roster is questionable, and somehow still healthier than the actual Bills offense right now. Down our top 3 WR's, and our top 2 RB's are dinged up, as is our #1 TE.

    I'm going to drink myself into oblivion in the stadium parking lot, sell my ticket to a Pats fan, and have my wife pick me up so I can come home, pass out on the couch and wake up 5 hours later to see if my 57-10 prediction was overstated.

    will powerbombing or being powerbombed through a table help?

    I'm not really into wrestling but it is a bit cathartic to watch other people do it.

    Funny you mention the Zubaz, as they are coming back into fashion, including yoga pants versions. :biggrin:

    Honestly though, knowing the Bills we'll probably manage to keep it close only to lose in some epic fashion.
    Not really - Brady is gonna kick the shit out of us and Belichek wants revenge for the shutout in week 4. This will be nothing short of disastrous

    My entire (at least playably) healthy RB stable is jacquizz, rob Kelley, mike gillislee. I'm fucked.

    Also I need a kicker. Do I drop Kelley or Gillislee

    I'd say Kelley? But I have McCoy/Gillislee and have to try to hope that Gillislee will do something...

    Then again, I have a ton of RB's at the moment for some reason. Hm. Gillislee or Duke Johnson JR? Or Chris Thompson? Or C.J. Prosise? Bah...

    Can we get the chemicals in. 'Cause anything's better than this.

    Gileslee should get a lot of carries tomorrow, but I wouldn't be surprised if Jonathan Williams takes a lot of the touches. Probably not the bulk, but enough to make Gil not a good start.

    You know how you can tell if a team isn't doing well. How easy is it to get tickets. Like I can buy redskins and browns tickets for a reasonable price (about 42 bucks a ticket). If I wanted Broncos or Packers tickets. They send you right to the exchange.

    Where I was born we had the LA Rams and then the LA Raiders and then neither. And a combined two Super Bowl appearances and one victory between them.
