I was getting tired of Tannehill spinning his wheels in Miami. It looked like he would be finishing out his career as a back-up at best if not gone altogether. Just shows what a change of scenery can do sometimes.

And Cousins just floated it up there. Should have been a 50/50 play. Instead it's a laugher.

That Niner DB comically misplayed that Diggs TD. But he is athletic I hear.

I was liking Minnesota's chance vs. the Niners. Niners a bit of a wunderkind team, maybe not ready for play-off pressure, while the Vikings are more seasoned. But dammit I hear Theilen is injured with a cut ankle. And just as he's finding his rhythm again. Dammit. Still should be a good game.

Maybe that's why Belichick beefed up the defense maybe neglected the offense a bit. He had seen that Brady had aged into more of a game manager in the last couple years so the Pats needed a stingier defense to help him out. With the salary cap it's hard to be dominant on both sides of the line...

Brady and the Pat's offense used to put in clinics. Lately though it has looked like they need to go to some kind of clinic for help. On a side note I'm thinking of changing my handle to The Hock Roman Numeral One.

Actually, it was a magical play by Watson according to an announcer. Could he have escaped the tacklers of 30 years ago? And you can put "magical" in the HOF of upsider attributes right up there with "room brightening smile."

Yup. Gotta watch maybe Brady's Last Stand.

Marginal PF on the lineman who was being selfish according to Booger.

Yeah, that and the near muffed punt highlight some problems with the modern "athletic" NFL. Lack of judgment and poor pass catching skills. Along with other fundamentals.

And when the ball was still live he ran over near it where it could possibly take a funny bounce off of him . He should have been moving away from the ball at that point. Part of being a good returner is good decision making so as not to cause a disaster.

For my money on that Allen TD that wasn't a keep him out of the end zone tackle try, that was a take him out of the game attempt.

Easy TD run by the Niners. Hell, Marshawn Lynch could have run that one in.

Yeah managed to lose a yard.

Burlsworth Trophy winner Hunter Renfrow with a nice game over the century mark. That nifty lateral he made one a nice catch and run looked like a chest pass. I wonder if he played some point guard back in his high school days. His first catch was at the start of the game and an announcer seemed...

Looked like Kumerow had his man beat but Rogers couldn't lay it out in front. He's been a little off all day.

LOL Dumb play by Amendola personal foul in front of God and everybody. He would never have done that with the Pats and Belichick. But hey it's just the Lions and their fat slob of a coach. So what the hell.

Well another week down. I kept half an eye on it. One image that stands out is a puzzled looking Brees throwing up his hands at a receiver that wasn't where he was supposed to be. Some of these guys obviously don't do their homework. But who need to study that much when you are so electrifying?

One of the announcers said something about Kupp being "held in check." In my opinion yes. By his coach. That Allen QB sneak for a first down was something else. He was stopped, then stepped to the side and launched himself easily for the first down. With one foot. Now that's athletic.

Somebody should make a highlight video, synced with music, of frustrated QB's and coaches making hand gestures of the correct route to clueless wide receivers who just ran the wrong route.

Collinsworth made a curious comment right after a Higbee reception. He said something to the effect that Higbee has helped make a difference the last few games for the Rams....with his blocking. If I heard correctly.

Kittle half wide receiver half tight end all beast. What a draft steal.

Forget what game I was watching but one of the corporate employees said that this is the year of the running quarterback. I think I heard something about that last year. And the year before that. And so on.

Amendola making the catch on that pass would have been Christmas come early.
