Ryan Tannehill has thrown for two TDs and run in two TDs himself. Tennessee instantly became a team to contend with when he took over for Mariota. Great to see!

So many White players on offense and defense having good games today. Yet this is just post 52, pathetic. So many passengers, so few contributors. . .

You would think after last week that Miami's coaching staff would figure out Laird is the best back on the roster, but he gets next to nothing again this week behind Ballage and Gaskins. This is pretty much the reason why they keep losing games. They keep their best talent on the sideline. Even on 3 carries he still manages to get the longest carry out of any Miami back.

The league got a glimpse of what Berrios can do. Complete whiff on New England's part to give up on him so easily. The kid is a flash.

Don, I understand your point about Wentz' lack of good receivers to throw to, but I watched him throw off target a few times and not check down when needed and miss some opportunities. There were several times things were his fault. I am not falling for the caste narrative. I totally wanted him to do well and win, especially against the heinous Seahags.

He's doing the best he can with what little he has to work with. . . very little to work with. He's human, not a magician. IMO he's the last QB in the league who should be taking heat given he has no good healthy receivers to work with and it's not much better at running back. He's been let out to dry this season and of course is blamed for everything that's gone wrong with the Eagles this season.

Very unfair given that he has no receivers to throw to (the few decent ones the Eagles have are injured). There's not a QB currently playing or who has played in the past who would excel given the current Eagles offense. All he can do is throw to his two White tight ends, his halfbacks, or run it itself. In other words he has very little to work with yet is taking all the blame. Don't fall for the Caste media narrative.

Wentz is a great example of the case I am making - most of the white QBs are playing with a mediocre supporting cast - from o-line to running game to wrs and right on to the offensive scheme/playcalling. White QBs have not been put in positions to succeed compared with their black counterparts this year.

Agreed. And we know certain guys always seem to not get the benefit of the doubt.

The Tannehill lead Titans still have a chance in the AFC south - they have become a team to root for. Still hard to believe Miami traded him away for a 6th rounder.

He's also probably the only qb in the league who is facing a sort of mutiny from his starting receivers in the lockeroom. Jeffrey and Agholor appear to be leading it. Hard to have much success when your own receivers are trying to sabotage you. Eagles need to move on from these two next year.

Brady to Edelman again to the dismay of the haters! Great throw and catch!

No question. Ahgolor is the opposite of a clutch receiver, and Jeffreys is a permanent hamstring injury who's had one good season in his incredibly over-rated career. Clean house, but the last time Lurie did that he purged Chip Kelly. The Eagles won a Super Bowl but otherwise are a somewhat better performing knockoff of Daniel Snyder's Blackskins.

Joe Schobert is AIM in addition to ATM (Anonymous Interception Machine, Anonymous Tackling Machine). He had both of the Browns' interceptions today.

I feel bad for him and Mayfield. Two White players with tremendous talent and potential stuck on a coal-black team with terrible management and inept coaching.

Relax yourself, it takes all of a minute to find stats using a search engine. The better way to go is to find them out yourself and report them to us instead of expecting us to do it for him. Posts that ask the obvious that can be easily found dumb down CF.

Hey does anyone know what time it is?

jokes, just jokes take it easy.

That's a stupid post. One of the problems with this forum is that so few posters actually do even a modicum of research and share it with the rest of us. Asking how C-Mac did when anyone with an IQ over 75 can find it out himself in seconds is a great example.

Patriots with a much needed win to keep their home field advanatage throughout the playoffs safe for now.

Edelman is now over 700 yards receving. With 5 games left barring injuries he should eclipse 1000 yards again!

Love this guy. He is as competetive as they come and he cannot be stopped. Edelmann is very close to Welker in talent. I still
give Welker the nod but not by alot.

On a positive note, a lot of our guys had great games today on both sides of the ball.

I was glad Baker Mayfield had a nice game to silence all the cucked DWFs, at least for a while. Brady beating Prescott was very good and quite a relief...if it had been otherwise, yikes. The other matchups of the same type didn't go well so this was huge. Edelman continues to amaze. CMac is beast even in a loss. And even Trubinsky shined in a win. We have lot to be positive about.

Niners vs. Packers up next. Rooting for Jimmy G. to do well regardless of the outcome of the game. White QBs, particularly young ones who don't yet have a legacy, are under attack from all sides.

Agreed except I definitely want Jimmy G to win tonight. SF needs to keep winning in the NFC because the Seahags keep winning and it's their division rival to make things worse or better depending on how you look at it.

Another positive note is how Josh Allen and Cole Beasley are doing in Buffalo, now at 8-3. That's impressive. And with Dallas looking out of sorts and all discombobulated I'm sure in the biggest game of the day on Thanksgiving Cole Beasley would love nothing more than to go into Dallas and burn his old team. Allen going into Dallas and winning would be huge and would really stick a finger in the eye of the caste system if he could go into Prescott's home turf and be victorious there.
