Matt Cassel has had a really poor season. Chiefs fans don't want him as their QB. They've got some talented young players both sides of the ball but finding out your QB is rubbish can be pretty tough - the fans aren't right to boo but I understand their frustration. I reckon they'll trade up to take a QB in the draft.

Chiefs fans cheering after Matt Cassel was knocked out during the game with Baltimore. Piss poor, don't expect it from Chiefs fans either. Eric Winston was pretty vocal with what he thought of them.

On top of that a non-existant holding pen on Shields and reviewing a first down call after the Colts have called time out with 48 seconds on the clock, 3rd down on the 4 yard line. Fuck me, the refs did everything they could to make sure Colts won.

Packers have the Colts at 3rd and 13, Nick Perry sacks Luck and his helmet bounces off Lucks' chest plate and into Luck's helmet. Refs call roughness, 15 yards first down. Are you kidding?

How the fuck is a defender meant to sack a QB these days?

Houston will slaughter the Jets. The Jets are going to be horrible this season.
Packers should win and hit some form.
And the Steelers should win. The Eagles turn the ball over too much.

I feel a bit sorry for the replacement refs, they were doing the best they could...but jesus, some of the calls they made were ridiculous.

I'll never complain about another ref this season :lol:

It wasn't the video ref upstairs. They went over to the booth to review it. So the call WAS made by the on-field officials.

I wonder if the Packers have any recourse to challenge the result...because that was atrocious and if it costs us a play-off spot that's just destroyed the integrity of this season entirely.

Just turned on ESPN. It's like someone has died. All they're talking about is that awful call.

The worst thing about it is the fact the video refs aren't replacement refs at all.

Not to mention the 2 cock-ups in the Lions game. I mean, first of all...how the fuck do you make the same call but enforce different penalties? It was bad enough ruling "half the distance to the goal" for roughing the passer in the second half...but to then rule "15 yard penalty" and walk out 27 yards in OT...are you kidding?

And then there's the ref IN THE END ZONE not throwing a flag and ejecting Mundy for that hit on Heyward-Bey. Dumbfounded.

The NFL have surely got to get a deal done this week. We can't have another week like that. The Patriots/Ravens game last night was ruined by the officials, missed some obvious calls on both teams.

It was bad enough that Heyward-Bey was hospitalised by the refs' inability to protect the player. But now it's cost the Packers the win. Absolutely fucking disgusting. The NFL have turned this season into a complete joke. Goodell has GOT TO GO!

In other news, my tipping went to shit this week.

Nah, that holding call was legit. And that 4th and short was on or around the 10 yard line, so with the 10 yard penalty Gostkowski's kick got a whole lot easier.

Texans @ Broncos and Pats @ Ravens...some big games this week. Packers have to get their passing game back to its best this week against the Seahawks secondary. And we get to see whether the Lions' gamble on Mike Leshoure was worth it.

Didn't help us at all a couple of big referee calls went against us. We got called for a false start on 4th and short when lining up for a field goal, yet the replays showed no-one on our side moved, and the defense should have been called offside. Then, late in the game, Woodhead had a a touchdown run ruled out after a debateable holding call on Gronkowski.

Poor Gost. He was the reason we were in the game in the first place. Our offense was poor...and Hernandez went down early and looks like he could be gone for a while :( Chandler Jones however, was brilliant in the pass rush. One for the future.

Some HUGE games this morning.

Gostkowski misses what would have been the game-winning field goal as the Pats go down to the Cards.

The Panthers steamroll the Saints in another comedy-of-errors performance from New Orleans.

Ben Tate helps the Texans steamroll the Jags with 2 TD's in a stellar running performance.

Buffalo and the Bengals blitz the chiefs and browns respectively, 3 sacks and a pick for Dqwell Jackson a shining light for the Browns.

And Josh Freeman's interception with 18 seconds left on the clock has allowed the Giants to pile 25 points on in the 4th quarter to steamroll home over the Bucs wiht Manning throwing for 510 yards (199 to Hakeem Nicks).

One this I hate about fantasy, I got Brandon Marshall and I was actually upset when he dropped that ball in the endzone. #-o

Packers D is the only reason you're still in our tie :lol: Hopefully Sanchez reverts to his usual self so I get big points from the Steelers D. Mostly, I think our tie probably hinges on how Megatron plays.

I've got Marshall in my other league...so I was a bit torn on that one :lol: I settled on being stoked that he had a shocker after all the trash he was talking with Jay Cutler this week.

I loved the way after the game a reporter asked Cutler "Did you ever envision tonight would go this badly?" and he responded "Yeah, I dream of throwing 4 picks and being sacked 7 times." :lol: ask a silly question...

Fuck, forgot to change my lineup in time. Ah well.

You can move players from the subs to starters right up until the start of their match, you jsut can't Add/drop players after the start of the match day.

Chris Johnson, on the other hand...I don't even know how you can be an NFL player and come up with stas like that.


Nothing more frustrating than handing someone alot of money only for him to turn to shit. He is almost uncatchable if he beats the defence but he just cant seem to get past the line of scrimmage right now!

How much of that is down to him and how much is down to his blockers missing their assignments though? Expect Titans to use their first two picks in next years draft on O-liners.

Nothing more frustrating than watching the Packers Offence turn to shit though. They really should have done better against the Niners. They haven't been the same since Jennings got injured. Hopefully they get their sharpness back against the Bears. Lots of teams are covering deep against us and challenging us to throw underneath.

I'd like to see Benson dropped in preference to Alex Green too.
