did rg3 get hurt?

Yep. Concussion.

 

[tyke1doe]

Yea, concussion in the 4th quarter

Really?
He needs to retire.

Rivers seems to get an incredible amount of Love and his failures always get pushed off under the "lack of support" carpet... Not so sure he's not a bit overrated... Dude makes a lot of bad decisions and is wildly inconsistent... Never a fan of his shotputtin' ***

If the Browns end up with the #1 pick not sure there's a QB worth taking at that spot. They'll end up having to take one and will continue to regret passing on the opportunity to draft Wentz.

Myles Garrett has to be the pick.

Chargers in FG range

Really?
He needs to retire.

He got sacked NINE times, can't really blame him

He's like the west coast version of Romo, minus the lone AFC Championship appearance.

2ND part isnt true at all

It's 100% true! You always have a chance in the playoffs. The Giants won the SB as a wildcard in 2007 beating the #1 seed Cowboys and won the SB in 2011 with a 9-7 regular season record, becoming the only team to ever accomplish that. The Packers won the SB after a 10-6 record in 2010 with a bunch of players on IR.

Are you kidding? Do you see what WRs he has this season? Can you name one in the past five years not named Gates?

 

[viman96]

Chargers miss the game winner! HAHAHAHA wow...

 

[Doomsday]

WOW! That is insane!

I had no idea Reggie Bush was still in the league until this moment.

Ultimately I think he and Romo will be grouped together when people look back at QBs of this era.

Romo has a couple of points on Rivers in QB rating (97 vs 95). Rivers got himself to the playoffs more and further.

First time I saw it was last week.

I think parcells and belicheck have used it. Parcells loved special teams.

Another fun one is that if they try to down a punt, and touch it but don't possess it, then you cannot try to scoop it and never lose possession no matter what. I don't know why teams don't try a few laterals in that scenario. Sure it may feel silly or pointless but that's how you can surprise teams.

Apparently you see so many field goals returned for scores Bc the kicking team gets lazy and stars to drift towards their sideline as the ball is In The air. Leaving the entire other side of the field open.

Browns just lost the number one pick. SF in control.

 

[viman96]

Chargers or Browns fans more PO right now?!

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

Merry X Mas San Diego.... long plane ride home baby..

Rushed for 5 yards so far this year.

 

[Direwolf63]

Browns one play away. Cleveland wins!

Break up the Browns! 1-14.
