Yeah, if Brady can not beat a defense coached by assistants and guys from the research department, then he should retire. The NFL refused Detroit’s request to delay the game until Sunday, when the majority of their coaching staff would return form contact protocol. They all tested negative and they didn’t break league covid rules, they just got caught up in the contact tracing issue. Several times the NFL has shifted games for other programs but I guess they wanted their fair haired boy to be sure to get into the playoffs so they rejected the Lion’s request. I am not saying the Lions would have won today but this asshole, clearly biased move by the NFL sure sealed it. They Lions may have been embarrassed on the field today, but I am more embarrassed at the NFL blatant pandering to marketable teams and players.

The same thing happened to the Dolphins versus the Cardinals Week 8 (IIRC). Outbreak of positives among the Assistants. We had to field Front Office guys in Coaching roles and other wacky changes (the TE Coach was the QB coach in Tua’s second start bc the QB Coach was out, for example). With one day’s notice. HC Flores attributed the success and the win to the organization being prepared and having contingencies in place beforehand.

Absolutely looks better here than a CBS or Fox broadcast

You must have shitty CBS and Fox stations, because every other broadcast I’ve seen this year, regardless of the channel, has looked better than this.

Proposal to evaluate Amazon’s CDN based on internet comments.

I wish Amazon had tonight’s game as well, then I could at least watch it.

It’s only on NFL Network except in local markets, right?

Holy crap, the end of the Dolphins game was crazy. Can’t believe Fitz completed that pass while being tackled by his facemask

The Dolphins/Raiders game went from boring for 55 minutes to completely redonkulous. The win probability chart probably looks like the EKG of a heart attack victim. Fitzmagic throws a ridiculous bomb WHILE HIS HEAD IS TURNED AROUND due to a monstrous facemask penalty.

Never in doubt.

The Raiders purposefully did not score a TD in order to milk the clock and kick the FG instead. That last carry before the kneel down, the RB could have easily scored a TD. He had a full head of steam but he killed his momentum at the 1 yard line.

This is why you score TDs.

Yeah. They also downed the Ball on the next play deliberately, makingNo attempt to score. With the limited time remaining, I get the strategy. Without the the face mask penalty, it probably would have worked.

Did Tua get hurt or did they just sub in Fitzmagic?

They subbed in Fitz once his beard crystals had charged.

Best of all, the Raiders officially fumbled the kick return with 00:00 on the clock and Miami recovered, extending the streak of consecutive games with a turnover to 21.

LOL! I don’t know what that means, but it’s funny. :)

Guy has to be the #1 backup in the NFL, if not a starter.

It means I’ve had a little too much gin.

Here’s the end of the game for people who need to see Magic is real.

Video blocked. The magic is not available.

You just have to click “Watch on Youtube” because the NFL are bastards.

Meanwhile…

Ok, that’s an awesome finish. Truly, the best no-look pass ever. No one will ever say Fitz is the GOAT, but he may be the backup GOAT.
