I think there are 2 marquee games this week. one is the Chargers and Chiefs. a lot riding on that game. The other one is Pitt vs New England. If Pitt expects to get to the Super bowl they will have to win games like this. Beside if the Dolphins can beat NE Pitt should be able to do it too.

Well that DEN game surprised me.  Poor Trevor Siemian.  You could tell his shoulder & arm contorted in ways they were not meant to. 

Charles, I am looking forward to both those games. Kind of rooting for Rivers - he’s been around as long as Eli Manning & hasn’t won or even played in a SB.

For some reason Rivers always surprises when I see him play. He is so much bigger than I expect. I think he may be as big as Rothlisberger. I agree. It would be nice to see him go far in the playoffs.

Well. Rivers may have to wait until next year. KC won this time. That puts them on top of the division. I don't know if the Chargers can get a wild card or not.

Hey new England won. Did Pitt lose Antonio Brown in the game?

and San Fran won in the last seconds of the game on a field goal. Garrapolo has some of Tom Brady in him.

Wow Joy & Bettyjean those were some games ur teams put on! I made it thru fantasy quarterfinals! 

Dallas got a lucky break in the end of their game and got the win. Next week Zeke Elliott comes back. Dallas has a slim chance to make the playoffs but I think they will need some help from other teams losing.

I think eventually New England is going to regret trading away Jimmy Garappolo. He is so young he will play for many years to come and Brady will not.

Oh, man!  I tried just picking just Thursday's game and I'd come back later.  That obviously didn't work.  Crumbs.

That NE game was incredible.  For sure Pittsburgh was going to make that final touchdown ~ then the ball is tipped right into NE hands.  I think they must have all had a second of "Wait - What- We Won?"

I agree, Charles about Jimmy.  He would have made a great qb when Brady retires.  He can't play forever.  Can he?

Antonio Brown suffered a partiality torn calf muscle.  They say he will be out until the playoffs.  That is sure a bummer for the Steelers.

Congrats Joy! That was some game. The ending reminded me of your SB win over Seattle. Went down to the very last second. One of the most exciting games I’ve seen this year.
