Saturday Games Thread

[Hoenheim]

Anyone watching these 2 games? I dont have NFL Network so I have to watch it online lol

First game is Detroit vs Bears 4:30 PM.

• Game doesn't have much meaning but I guess the Lions haven't been eliminated yet at 7-6 they're one of the fringe NFC teams that have to win out to have a prayer to get into the playoffs
• Pretty sure the Bears have been eliminated but at least they're fun to watch with Trubisky (I'm a UNC alumn), Jordan Howard, and Tarik Cohen

Second game is Chiefs vs Chargers 8:30PM

• Cheifs and Chargers are both 7-6 and whoever wins this game gets the division title lead and probably a huge leg up in AFC playoff seeding. Big game!
• Also interesting b/c the Chiefs offense seemed to come alive last game, will see if they can continue against a very good Chargers team lately
• Kareem Hunt is #2 in the league with 1046 rushing yards and he has 389 receiving yards for a total of 1435 yards from scrimmage (Kamara 1247 , Fournette 1136 , McCaffrey 838)
• Hunt has a chance to make a late push for ROTY since Kamara was injured last week and KC came back alive. Putting together 3 big games he could get the award over Kamara or it may be a very tight race

not sure, i thought it was a typo when i checked earlier this week .. Maybe b/c the college regular season is over and theres just some lame meaningless bowl games on until the college football playoffs start in January 

Its going to be the same next Saturday 12/23  . Colts vs Ravens 4:30 PM , Vikings vs Packers 8:30PM

Tuning into this Bears game to watch John Fox’s last nationally televised game as a head coach.

TV money. No real competition from college means they have a full evening of ratings and advertising money to gobble up

Pulling slightly for the Lions.  Ideally they can get into the playoffs instead of the Falcons/Seahawks/Cowboys/or Packers.

its pretty ridiculous that I see WR from literally every other team catch balls like its nothing , yet we've been struggling with drops for years on end.

Lions trying to score with :57 left in the half inside the 15. Something RR would never do

LOL Detroit fumbles it to Chicago inside their own red zone with less than 10 seconds left in the 2nd quarter.  wow what  a fug up by that Lions RB

and they promptly fumbled in their own side of the field to let the Bears get a field goal before the half lol. Just more fuel to justify Riveras conservative coaching decisions
