    Its a good way to work around an injured punter too, never punt.

    Two incomplete passes and now a punt on a 3 and out, so... guess they didn't follow that playbook.

    So the offensive player initiates contact, and the defender gets a flag thrown at him. Right.

    Not that it mattered cause Patriots then let Duke Johnson walk in untouched.

    I know Patriots have some injuries going on in the secondary and at LB but this is not how I expected them to play, especially nto after last week.

    Refs have swallowed their whistles in the Rams/49ers game letting some fouls go on both sides.

    The missed call on the interception will likely be the game.

    Well, maybe not. 49ers are making this interesting at the very end.

    TD 49ers. Just need an extra point to tie.

    Tie game. 20 seconds to OT.

    Robbie Gould player of the game for nailing some punts and kicking without his usual holder.

    And fuck the Rams.

    Regardless of anything else, this is a worthy final game of the regular season.

    I am so so so tired of the announcers in the Saints/Falcons game talking about the playoff situation, they've covered it at least 20 times now.

    That was an impressive drive by Mac. 3 point game. Now the defense needs to show the same kind of resolve and mettle.

    Who needs to wait for the game later tonight, both the Rams and Niners could get what they want if this game ends in a tie.

    Regardless nothin', I hate one of these teams already and it looks like I'm bound to hate them both by the end.

    That's the funniest ending to a game I've ever seen.

    Wow. I can't believe it.

    49ers win on a pick.

    I'm still amazed at how the Saints season went. A winning record with that injured roster is insane.

    Well shit. Not only did we lose in Miami, again, but on the penultimate play Christian Barmore got hurt, and it sounds like it might be serious. He was our 2nd best pass rusher this season.

    Stafford throwing a pick is pretty easy to believe.

    It's not that. What I can't believe is that we actually won.

    I can't believe that we came back from 17-0 to tie. I can't believe we turned the ball over on the goal line. I can't believe that we then had the placekicker punt the ball from our own goal line with 2 minutes left in the game, down a touchdown, and still managed to force a 3 and out, get the ball back, and score the tying TD before the end of regulation.

    The entire OT was more believable, frankly.

    For those looking ahead to next year. The schedule is set, we just don't know the time and place for each game yet.
