It’s looking like a bad night for Lee Hoos in Baltimore ;)

Our ex Chief Exec. is a Baltimore man.
His team are on the verge of either play-off heartache or the best comeback of recent history.

Jackson's a rookie, he'll learn. He has to develop a clock in his head and learn to throw the ball away if nobody's open. Baltimore needs to upgrade their offensive line in order to improve their running attack and balance their offense.

I caught the end of the Eagles v Beard game and it was an exciting finish with the Eagles winning by one run after the Bears kicker hit the foul pole.

And how the Bears kicker wishes that were true! If you hit the foul pole, the run counts! ;)

Some finish. Bears hard done to with bad call that would have left them a few yards from end zone in first half.
Talk about ‘tight margins’.
No sport generates more last minute drama than AF.

Not really - if the refs hadn't blown the play dead, then Philadelphia would surely have recovered the fumble. There weren't any other Bears around, as I remember.

If a kick hits the uprights and bounces back into the field of play, it's automatically blown dead. It's not a referee's decision.

Different play. I think cuban was talking about the "catch" ruled a no-catch, that should have been a catch and fumble but was blown dead.

All good match ups this weekend with 3 of the away teams winning too.

Saints are favourites but got a funny feeling about the colts.

Could be correct that Dsr, on reflection, I guess I was going off the fact that it was deemed a bad call to
call it an incomplete pass but it Eagles might well have recovered. Felt for the Bears and I felt they didn’t really deserve to lose, big respect for Foles though, he’s a very resilient QB - brilliant on 3rd downs, takes risks and fortune favoured the brave on the night.
