2014 Fifa World Cup Qualifying

Mesut Ozil had a nice hat trick earlier for Germany. Nice to see him scoring goals, it's the one part of the game he needs to work on. A great assist man, he often ends up with good shots on goal for himself. Madrid has struggled to score goals in a couple of their games this year so it'll be a plus to have Ozil as another scoring threat.

The USA is tied with Jamaica at the moment, a team they most definitely should beat.

Tons of games today as well. I saw some of Russia's destruction of Israel earlier. USA will be in a bad spot if they lose a second time to Jamaica. Should be going all out in that one tonight.

A draw tonight and the bad performances are erased. We will have gotten through our two toughest tests in the first three games and will still be in a qualification spot. That being said, I am expecting a disaster, Mexico is the one in the more dangerous situation.

We have certainly been helped by all other games ending in a tie, hope that continues.

Man that is some hopeful thinking.

I'll take a draw. A 3-1 win would be epic.

It's highly possible. Mexico has all the pressure. They are in Mexico. Team USA has won in the Azteca before. And again, Ochoa, is horrid.

Trust me I'm not feeling good about my teams performance tonight. I just honestly believe team USA has all the momentum and is primed to win tonight.

I'm looking for the Netherlands to rebound from a heart breaking loss in the last World Cup final game to take it all in Brazil. Bit of a weaker qualifying division this time, but at 6-0 with 20 goals for and just 2 against, they are well on their way to show the world that they can....finally...for the love of god...win it all!!!

Cool. One of our players stated that the pressure is on them. It's true.

    • Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.
    • Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane  
    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
