Is Gamepass giving trouble for anyone else? The site just won't load for me.

Ya, mine has been totally unwatcahble for the last 10-15 minutes.

Anthony Barr's one of the few brightlights of the Vikings season. For someone who scouts said was incredibly raw, frightening to think how much better he can get

Ivefoundgod

Glad its not just me. Pretty ridiculous for a paid service. I was able to get a HD stream on Reddit for free that gave me less trouble.

Paully D

Who becomes the new head coach for the Jets next season guys?

You've got a quarterback there too IMO mate. Bridgewater will be a good one. Decent draft class for the Vikings.

Was very excited after preseason and the Falcons game. It's been tempered a bit since. His arm strength is lacking somewhat. He's been playing behind a terrible OL though, LT Kalil has been scary bad. BW does seem like a 'winner' though, good in the clutch. We'll see i suppose. McKinnon the 3rd rounder has been excellent too so a great draft class certainly

That's been said a lot this season

What happened? Why the decline?

Top 5 pick and I don't remember anyone saying he was struggling before this season

Itssoeasy

Why did the cardinals punt that on 4th down ? Strange one that. Let's go eagles.

Itssoeasy

Jesus how did ronde barber get a job as a colour commentator ?

mikemac1

No matter what he does he'll do a better job than Donavan McNabb.

On other hand David Diehl is doing a fine job

Itssoeasy

Oh now that was a nice play by the eagles

mikemac1

Steelers deserve to lose for those godawful uniforms

And the worst strip ever has to go to the Steelers. FFS guys, as soon as I saw it I started singing No Rain by Blind Melon...... ;p

They've worn these ones before haven't they ?

mikemac1

They have indeed

And they lost on SNF to Baltimore last time too

Itssoeasy

Just shy for the cards. 4th down.

Billy86

The Pittsburgh Bumblebees.

mikemac1

Now I'm lost

Schuab was in the game, was he realy benched after one series.

Though Carr was starter in previous weeks so why was Schuab in?

Tristram

I love those retro Steeler jerseys.

Schaub was only in for a fake FG which he managed to throw an INT on after a botched snap.

andyman

In fairness to the Vikings, their OL has been built to run block rather than protect the QB. That's why McKinnon has been able to shine and Teddy's been blowing hit and cold.

That last drive in regular time was what Teddy's all about. Outstanding.

Tristram

The Browns OL cannot run block right now it seems.

Billy86

And that's why Andrew Luck is not quite there with the very best of them yet.

Andrew Luck...

Billy86

WOW!

Eagles fumble on the 2 yard line earlier which Arizona recovers, and now Cromartie gets an interception in the endzone before returning it 40 odd yards!

Itssoeasy

:mad: Feck sake.

Rock Lesnar

For the love of f*ck Foles

Billy86

Cardinals continue to struggle to move the ball though, they can't rely on turnovers all day... 3 and out again.

taidghbaby

Just turned on the Colts game as Luck threw the pick! Then a very nice pass to Allen!

Billy86

Big throw by Ben there, that's got to sting for the Colts.

Alfred Borden

Hopefully Vontae can get back in in the second half. The secondary is rubbish without him.

johnmcdnl

Anyone watching the Browns game want to tell me what's wrong with Ben Tate that he's only got -5 yards rushing and 8 yards passing?

Alfred Borden

This is getting ugly

Billy86

Antonio Brown, good God.

Tristram

The OL cannot run block. He is having to fight massively to make it back to the line of scrimmage.

He had a great year 1. He was mediocre last season but had a virus of some sort and lost a lot of weight, so must gave him a pass and expected his top form again this year. However he's simply got worse, looks overweight now and slow. Besides the Centre Sullivan, the line is terrible and generally always has been, Kalil's rookie season aside

Moist Bread

What a catch by brown. At least I have him on fantasy, sort of takes the sting out of it

taidghbaby

Offside on a 4 and 1 field goal!

Stupidity!

taidghbaby

If Heywerd-Bey catches a TD I'm turning this **** off!

Billy86

Tom Brady might actually not end up with the best stat line tonight, who would have thought that two hours ago?

Billy86

Nearly another turnover from Luck, but a teammate fell on the ball. He really does have to be more careful with it.

Alfred Borden

Shame that Luck is gonna have to carry this junk coaching team again this season.

Billy86

Well that was... weird. Why no just got for the FG? Suisam has a good leg, makes absolutely no sense.

Son Of A Vidic

Just turned on Redzone, think I just caught the end of Ben messing up a punt? Dude needs to leave that stuff to Brady, or at least get some lessons from him.:)
