America's favorite Dystopian pastime - NFL 2021-22

i don’t wager but the packers only giving six points at home against the steelers is absurd

really should have doubled my net worth on this, although it was closer than i'd expected

Lugz

never rock lugz im way above

lol I was thinking about that on the final Steelers drive, could totally see the Pack playing prevent defense and giving them an easy TD with :23 left. I mean that's what McCarthy always did

its weird seeing the Steelers in last place. I was surprised Ben was still playing...for some reason I thought he retired like 2 years ago. He didn't look great!

I hate Brady’s stupid face so much I’m rooting for the Pats what have I become

:)

yeah no winners in this matchup

that said seeing Belichick throw a bunch of crazy defenses at Brady is pretty cool. and it seems to be working thus far.

ben is averaging like two yards per pass

part of it is that his line sucks and that's all the time he has, part of it is that he can no longer scramble for the extra time, and part of it is that he simply can't throw the ball very far. coming into this game i don't think he'd even *thrown* a pass 20 yards upfield between the hashmarks, let alone completed one

I have to admit that I…admire Belichick as a coach. Lord knows he’s outcoached the Bills almost every time he’s played us.

the pats are driving me nuts with execution mistakes but this judon guy is a lot of fun

xxp yeah he's in that late stage Eli phase where you know you're not going anywhere with him but you're probably worse off benching him

rather than benching ben the steelers should kill him idk just feels right

xp yeah but a) this has been going on for three years, and b) eli wasn't a rapist

patriots seem to be prepping to lose this game

its because it stopped raining, bad luck

well tbf the Steelers did start 11-0 last year and very nearly overcame a comically gruesome start to beat the Browns in the playoffs

Ben still had the same issues but he at least was hitting open dudes. he missed two not particularly difficult TD passes against GB today and if he can't hit those he's worthless

well well well nice lil drive there pats ok ok

they were really reeling off the good plays on that drive

rookie QB with no run game going against an excellent veteran defense, you'd think he would be getting clobbered

mac has got some game

steelers started last year 11-0 because they played the NFC East; they are not and never were in fact a good team

this will get me excommunicated by any trv steelers fans here, but mike tomlin is actually a really good coach. (i know, right?!)

ben is done. i don't know exactly how they proceed from here, but it has nothing to do with roffles

draft a quarterback?

Very smooth Tom! 😂😂 #SNFonNBC #GoBucs pic.twitter.com/gjmSeZpGZn

NE has rushed for -1 yard midway through the 4th and somehow they're only down 2

Too much time on the clock for Mac Jones…

this is a tight game!

ahahah ok sorry Bill Belichick rules

meyers 2 for 2!

belichick wants this one lol

i would really like to have had an early night for a lot of reasons but this game is too good

That was 19 consecutive completions for 180 yards and 2 TDs before the back-to-back misses from Mac Jones.

who are you even rooting for lag∞n

the pats baby!

holy shit

tight game!

can't believe this game is actually delivering

now its raining again...

ahhhhh

lol so close

tight game

was probably the right call too

rain makes it dicey, thought they were gonna go for it tbh

going for it with a rookie QB in the rain probably also dicey, you got like a 40% shot of losing the game right there and who knows how many more yards you're gonna get

mac was dealing! youre gonna get like at least 6 more yards if you get it probably more

it was just a very long field goal for such poor conditions, if it hadnt started raining again sure kick it

oh actually I forgot there was still a minute on the clock and TB had two timeouts, the 35-40% shot of a Brady comeback definitely makes going for it correct

yeah that too

It was a special night

steelers started last year 11-0 because they played the NFC East; they are not and never were in fact a good team

Unless there's been some heavy duty conference realignment I didn't hear about i don't think this is true. AFC North is at the very least a solid to good division

My Vikings are on a dark path
