Ballgame. Inspired effort by Indy's defense. I can't believe they found a way to lose to the goddamn Raiders at home last week.

I’m taking over as Viking GM tomorrow. First move is to send Zimmer and Cousins to Indy for Frank Reich.

I'll wait to hear what Al Riveron says about it but yeah, at first blush it looks like a pretty easy call.
Wait for what? Hilton didn't initiate contact, there was hardly contact period, and it was a yard from the line of scrimmage.

I don't know the rule book that well. Maybe there's a valid reason. Or maybe he'll admit they blew it. I dunno. I'd be more salty about it if they had lost.

Was checking out the Chiefs upcoming schedule and decided to look at the Patriots so far.

Steelers 1-4
Dolphins 0-5
Jets 0-5
Bills 4-1
R Words 0-5

next two are Giants and Jets.
Have Bengals and Dolphins two out of the last 3 weeks of the year.

For being the 2 best teams in the league, neither team has a daunting schedule IMO.

Not much to be done about the AFC East. It's not the Pats' fault that they get six cupcakes (I guess Buffalo is decent this year, so more like four and a half cupcakes) worth of divisional games. They do have some challenges coming up - at Baltimore, at Philly, Cowboys at home, at Houston and then the Chiefs come to town. But yeah, their early and late season schedule is a joke.

Former Chief Houston with the stop to turn it over on downs.
Justin Houston with an amazing game. Lucky for him Cam Erving was the Chiefs LT yesterday. He's so bad. I never thought I would miss Eric Fisher but holy crap please come back asap. Also Sammy Watkins is a waste. Mr Glass. I bet they move on from him this summer.

I bet he calls Urban Meyer.

Could be. And maybe it's a long shot but I wonder if he chases Jim Harbaugh, too. If they're dead set on making a splash hire they'll have to pay a premium. That's one of the most dysfunctional franchises in all of sports.
