It takes a long time for the tapes of the games to get to Mexico.

Jax returned FG most exciting play in football. More on the line for Auburn but that was fun.

Only the third (IIRC) 109-yard play in NFL history.

Knowing it made Urban Meyer happy ruins it a little.

Those silver/gray Detroit uniforms are terrible.

And I shall eat my words about the Bengals 1st rounder. JaMarr Chase is fantastic.

The Canuckistani bar down the street doesn’t have Sunday Ticket but does get Detroit TV stations on its CDN satellite package so I can subject myself to the Lions all year if I want. At least the beers are only 25 pesos ($1.25)

The Bears had a net passing yard today. That’s the correct article.

This is so funny right now.

Yeah, the irony is that it’s so bad now it’s legitimately pretty funny. Like if this was G-d or a god or someone trying to punish Lions fans at this point it would be way too much to actually hurt.

But this whole season is a loss and was always gonna be. The new coach and GM gets to decide who to keep and who to jettison. Another high draft pick is not a bad result especially if they battle like they have the last three weeks.

He was very much the reason why everyone wanted out of Houston and probably why Watson decided he was finished with the franchise before news of him being a sexual predator was known. I go back and forth on whether or not he would be playing if he wanted to be here.

Of course, I assume it's not just the blaming it on Bill O'Brien that's frustrating. How about you don't want this piece of shit representing your organization?

I'm probably the only one with directv still here but I keep getting ads on my guide saying that I'm getting Sunday Ticket free ... and I'm not. I chatted with a customer service rep on the site and the explanation literally was "since you're getting the ad you may get it for free at some point but we don't know when and we can't just give it to you."

I'm calling if it pops up again next week. I wasn't planning on purchasing it this year anyway and instead doing that student deal. but I'm gonna try to get them to give it to me or at least stop the ads before I do that.

I was pleasantly surprised to find Red Zone there on my YouTubeTV yesterday!

maybe I'm weird but I couldn't imagine not paying the $5 a month during football season for red zone on yttv

I still have DirecTV. They emailed me that they were giving it to me for free again this season and they did.

Do whatever you feel is best with this info.

I don't really watch the NFL much, but I really like the Manning brothers commentary channel.

Oh my yes. Mentioned it in the week specific thread. Eli in particular on fire tonite. Excellent dry humor.

I could use a little less time with guests, but it's still pretty great.

When it's football guests, it is fine. When it is non-football it slows down a bit.

It’s a knockoff of the NBA’s Players Only broadcasts. I think they could use a third person so that Eli can just concentrate on roasting Peyton the whole time.

The vocal “Stafford sucks!” minority of Lions fans has been quiet lately.

(I still think the trade deal was a fair one for the Lions and worth making.)

That halftime lineup is fantastic…can’t wait to see racist Twitter and all the grumpy old folks come out in full force during the show complaining about something they don’t understand.

This makes me feel young and relevant. Actually, SB halftime shows tend to be acts that have been big for a long time more often than the hottest current act. It’s the pregame singers I’m sometimes oblivious to.

Dr. Dre's first album came out in 1987.

I hope they do "Bitches ain't shit" or the one about how super gay that one guy is, so gay they 'd like him to suck their dicks.
