December 5, 20223 yr comment_1687894 FWIW, I watched the Browns game today. 14 of their points came off of defense and special teams and 7 more points came off of a turnover deep in Texans territory. The Texans also got a safety off of them. They did not look like an offensive juggernaut. Report

Browns Win” He had—not even virtually—no contribution to that decision today. We can expect more hype this week, now that he has slid past the media in his “return” Report
December 5, 20223 yr comment_1687908 Watson was trash today. I don't think this will be a trap game, the team is going to be motivated to finally get their first win against the Browns under Burrow. Report

Texans wound up scoring 3 points on that. Report

December 5, 20223 yr comment_1687923 Still think this game could be flexed next week. Not impossible Stealers and Ravens flexed. One of the games, anyway. I think the networks would see the benefit of having these games flexed not only for the possible impact on the playoffs but some of the major players involved, Limping Lamar, Kenny Picksix and George Prickins, Whack Off Watson and the entire Bengals team.

When I looked up the 506 Sports maps earlier this week the site said they would not be available until Wednesday waiting to see if and who were flexed. I think the Sunday night game originally scheduled for today was flexed out because the teams sucked. Report

Not convinced the NFL will want to go straight from the-debut-no-one-saw directly to Marqee-time with The Massage Therapist. At least not this fast. For all intents and purposes, CFT are dead for what remains of 2022. There is no real need for the league to highlight them—and absolutely no need to bring MT front and center into living rooms.

NFL cares about as much as they did when Ben raped a woman in a public restroom. Which is to say, not at all. If it's not caught on video and uploaded to social media or subject to actual criminal charges they're going to pretend it never happened. Report
