Falcons at the Saints is decent? Didn't we just watch that game yesterday? Saints in a blowout. The other two games, they're actually pretty good.

Yeah, definitely decent. Division games are never completely predictable. And any team with Julio Jones is going to score some points.

I’ve always rooted for the Lions on Thanksgiving...even during their horrid years...

So, i’m going to be pulling for the Lions over da’Bears this year...

The Colt McCoy talk around here has been nothing short of awesome so far this week. You've got some people saying he should have been the starter all along. Some saying they won't win another game. Some saying he gives them a better chance to win than Alex Smith. Pretty much a crap shoot of emotions out of Skins fans. :lol:

The Falcons have no excuse for sucking as bad as they are sucking...
They are loaded on the offensive side of the ball
and the NFL rules are heavily slanted to favor a team designed as such

Two great Wide Receivers
Two solid Tight Ends
Two solid Running Backs
an above average Offensive Line
and a very good Quarterback

If you can't win 11 games with that - Steve Sarkisian should be fired at seasons end (period)

Don't leave Matt Ryan out of that discussion. For a guy with all the hype he has, his team not winning when it matters has been an interesting coincidence with him.

NFL Week 12 observation:
Winning a football game is hard
because even the teams with crappy records have some great players and some good coaches

If you have a QB who can throw a dart and more than one guy who can catch, you stand a chance.

Or if you have Ezekiel Elliott.

Defense isn't really a thing these days. Or with these rules.

Agreed,
really you need to just be situational solid on defense...
The occasional 3rd down sack
The occasional interception
The occasional short yardage run stuff

That's about all you can ask from a defense anymore

The biggest question in my mind right now as we move past November is...

Why are the Redskins dressing in Panthers uniforms for the last 3 games?

Maybe so--

But the Panthers defense was supposed to be better than letting the Steelers hang 52 on them, Seattle hang 30 on them, and Detroit to score at all....

Wilson is having an MVP type year. He was 10-15 yesterday and has thrown 12 TD’s against the blitz on the season.

Defense has issues though.

The Seahawks have figured out that in general NFL teams are NOT built to stop the run

Wishful thinking, kalm.
