2017 NFL thread

It was a crazy exciting game! Unfortunately for me i wasn't too excited at the end of the game when the Raiders won. A couple of days ago i put a bet on the Raiders to win the game straight up. Then about an hour before the game i changed my mind and decided to bet on KC in order to nullify my bet. Okay i broke even because of my first bet but i broke my personal rule of never going against my first instincts.

Saints--Packers....my 2 favorites teams......Saints won with another good performance of Breezes.....as i already said won't b easy for Greenbay without Rodgers...mais son remplacant a quand même bien fait dans les circonstances .

The Bills/Tampa game was pretty entertaining. I didn't watch them but was told the Miami/Jets and Tennessee/Cleveland games were also fun to watch. The best game of the week was last Thursday's KC/Oakland game.

Thanks but it's okay. I put money on the Saints today.

Very good bet!!!!

Patriots 27-Steelers24......Wow....what an exciting game.....the last minute was incredible...tout un spectacle......sorry for Pittsburg qui méritait un meilleur sort.

Aaron was back but Greenbay lost.....they won't do it this year...too bad.....son absence aura coûté cher.

The Patriots had no business stealing this game from the Steelers. The touchdown call was correctly reversed since it was according to the rules but something has to be done to that rule in order to prevent the same thing from happening again.

Same thing with the Oakland game. Fumbling the ball in the end zone should not result in the other team gaining control of the ball at the 20. It's a bad rule. The play should be called dead and the team regains possession at the one-yard line. I don't see the logic of penalizing the team by handing the ball to the other team when that team never even came close to touching the ball when it was fumbled through the end zone.

It's unfortunate for Green Bay that they'll likely miss the playoffs but that's football and injuries are part of the game. I also doubt they would have accomplished much with that defence.

As for my Bills they're now clearly in the playoffs picture after a very impressive win against Miami.

Hey Doc....what a way to start the New Year...your Bills will do it après une attente de 18 ans.....big thanks to the Bengals......they r not my favourites but am happy for them.

What an ending that Bengals/Ravens game was!!!! The Bills are in because of that miraculous comeback by the Bengals, but it'll be hard to win next weekend without star running back Leshawn McCoy in the lineup. He left halfway into the game with what appeared to be a serious ankle injury. X-rays were negative for a fracture but when it comes to ankles sometimes a fracture is better news. I'd be shocked to see McCoy in the lineup next weekend.

Lots of coaches lost their jobs today. John Fox, Chuck Pagano, Jack DelRio & Jim Caldwell were fired. Bruce Arians resigned & Marvin Lewis is expected to step down. More coaches are expected to either get the ax or step down.

It's been reported that the Oakland Raiders have signed Jon Gruden to the longest contract in NFL history. They've reported to have signed him to a 10-year contract worth in the area of $100 million. Wow!!!!

Just watched CHIEFS--TITANS...wow...quel revirement....KCity menait 21-3 a la demie et ont perdu 22-21....incroyable...un peu décu mais bravo Titans pour une remontée spectaculaire.

..and what a game played by MARIOTA....athletic, flexible and talented QB....not easy to deal with him....garde toujours la défensive adverse sur ses gardes et parvient souvent a les surprendre ...fun to watch.

Ouffff my SAINTS did it in extremis 31-26 until the last play.....exciting game ...nice comeback from the Panthers.

Malheureusement Patriots just too good.......Go Saints go.....

Taburn...suis encore sous le choc de la défaite des Saints.....what a spectacular game and what about the last play....incroyable....magique....MAIS quelle mauvaise couverture sur ce jeu. Je ne m'en remettrai pas facilement!!!!!!!!

The player that miss the hit at the end was actually trying to hit him so the player remained inside the field right? It was the only way to finish the game for the Saint because if the player went outside they would have one anyway on a 3 point kick. Unfortunately he badly calculated his hit for sure!

What a game I do not watch football often (well I do watch a lot of real football known here as soccer...) but this was an exciting game!

Cheers,

I think this had to be the most dramatic ending to a playoff game that i've ever seen!

I was sure the game was over. And then....shocker!!!!

It appears from highlights that the Saints defensive back completely missed the player he wanted to tackle. It almost seemed like he jumped out of the way in order to avoid him. I don't know how to explain it other than he had a brain fart at the last second. But why was he the only player there?? New Orleans should have had more players playing deep than just a couple of players!

Jacksonville also shocked the hell out of the Steelers!! Who knew that they could score nearly fifty points against Pittsburgh?? And in Pittsburgh on top of that?? It made me realize that the Buffalo Bills' defence is one hell of a defence!!!

Philly/Minny will be a great game next weekend. I also believe that New England will have a hard time beating Jacksonville's defence. Speaking of the Patriots, they're about to lose three coordinators once the season ends. Their long-time defensive coordinator will likely become the Detroit Lions' head coach once the season ends and two others are likely to become head coaches elsewhere.
