Frank Reich gets fire by Indy and they replace him with.... Jeff Saturday??!!! The guy has zero coaching experience at any level. Many coaches toiling in the league must be wondering who they have to kill to get a shot. I'm looking at you Eric Bieneimy....

loool NFL teams don't even play on Saturday, what a dumb hire

I just read that there is now no one on the coaching staff that has ever called plays in the NFL.

The Tank is on!

Shame none of the college QBs this year are playing particularly well.

Irsay is a fool. If you value Jeff's opinion why not hire him as a special advisor? A NFL head coach is such a technical job, and his lack of resume is bound to cause issues.

Watched the Bills Vikings last night.

What a game. What a catch by Jefferson. What a perfromance by Jefferson - he's making Kirk Cousins look half decent. It's ridiculous.

OBJ's catch was better for me - but Jeffersons on 4th and 18, at that poitn in the game, was ridiculous. Catch of the season (so far).

NFL is delivering high quality entertainment this year. And playing in Germany, I read the 70k seat stadium got 3,000,000 ticket applications. That is truly ridiculous.

i know 1st year coaches never get fired

but

Hackett is fucking getting fired.

Denver are keeping teams to 17 and under every week. We're 3-8 having sold the farm for a new QB. That's fucking disgraceful.

I wasn't expecting the Cowboys to pump the Vikings like that.

It's not completely unheard of for first year coaches to get fired.

New ownership in Denver too. Stuck with Russell Wilson's contract for a few more years yet.

Yep Hackett is gone. He might be lucky to even see out the season.

Denver playing surprisingly well against the Bills. Thought this would be a bloodbath, but it's probably going to OT.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone - don't forget two more games to go yet today

Bills have fallen back to the pack a bit recently

ah crap, yes. Detroit. Same start right Clearly an early start

Second game fun too; good day to be chilling around the house. Cricket this afternoon to multitask on

also, classic Lions at the end; give up a FG with less than 30 seconds on the clock. Just ripped open when it mattered the most.

Josh Allen is some player

Pats Vikings is kinda fun too. Plenty of scores being immediately answered

Apart from the Cowboys game, the Vikings have been fun to watch this year. They look great in patches of games and then let others back in but have found a way mostly to stay on top so far anyway..

@bayimports Belichek is on hell of a coach. Turns journeymen into proper defensive rocks. It's seriously impressive.

Cyclops

This Vikings team is one of the jammiest teams I can remember for a while. They're 9-2 with a negative points differential. Insane.

A very Happy Thanksgiving for the Cowboys

That's an incredible 49ers win over the Dolphins.

Conceding a 75 yard TD on the first play.

Losing Jimmy G for the game (season?) on the first offensive drive.

The last pick in this year's Draft aka Mr Irrelevant rookie Brock Purdy comes in and plays great at QB.

49ers defense were able to generate turnovers from the Dolphins. Bosa leads the league in sacks.

The 49ers season might rest on whether or not Jimmy G can come back but either way that was an amazing win.

mariner4life

The Broncos are fucked. Fucked i tell you. And the worst thing? We sold the fucking farm to get us this fucked. FFTFF (fucked for the foreseeable future)

If i was the defence i would go on strike. Yet again they proved themselves to be elite. They have conceded 204 points in 12 games. And they have won 3 times.

@mariner4life

Seahawks currently getting pick number 3 next year as part of the trade. The Seahawks have an abysmal record in the first round (they're amazing in later rounds though). I'm intrigued to see how they go with it. Could be a dream spot to grab a QB. Get a top prospect. Give him a couple of years behind Geno and then let him loose. Also slightly reduces the leverage Geno has when he hits free agency at the end of the season since if they love one of the QBs and think they're day one starters (I'm not convinced, but that's off season chat!) then they can move on if they have to (or feel more comfortable tagging him and letting him walk after a year or two). Of course Geno has to hold it together down the stretch first.
