Sadly no turkey and pumpkin pie for me this year but we’ve still got the “football”bro enjoy.
 
It's a shame they moved the Ravens @ Steelers to Sunday as the two games that they have left are fairly uninspiring.
 
Yeah the cowboys game should be good but I know what you mean.

I am looking forward to the Christmas Day game... Saints Vs Vikings...
 
washington v cowboys uninspiring? I will be searching for a stream or maybe even pay for it on nfl site if available. As a long time cowboy fan ( the man utd of american footy?) and we could be in the playoffs even with a losing record as the division is so poor this year and everyone struggling. Once in the playoffs though who cares.
Think there are a lot of fans happy the patriots are struggling, would be great if the bills finally did it this year if the cowboys don't, 4 superbowls on the bounce without winning one.

Detroit Lions are just dreadful in this first game.

NFC Least is shaping up to be the most exciting division, all four teams within half a game of each other.

Dallas' win over the Vikings could be key, there aren't going to be many wins against non-divisional opponents (except the Bengals) in the run in.

I think Dallas have the easier run-in with 4 winnable games (3 divisional games & the Bengals) in 6, everyone else only has 2. Philly have a stinker playing Seattle, Green Bay, New Orleans & Arizona before their two divisional games.

As a Giants fan we've improved each game but will need a big step up in performance to beat at least one of Seattle, Arizona Cleveland & Baltimore to go into the final game against Dallas with a shot.

I'm hyped, it is looking like a play-off berth or a top 10 pick in the draft. It is all to play for.

You'll do well to not delete this post when you wake up in the morning! 😂
 
Well. I enjoyed that, Cowboys tonked & Washington go top of the division with it all to play for.

Unless there is a major upset along the way, I think that at best 6-10 (or 6-9-1) now wins the division, beating the Panthers all-time low of 7-8-1.
To reach 6, Washington with 4 wins have to play the Pittsburgh (L), 49'ers (L) & Seahawks (L) before the Panthers (maybe) & Eagles (coin toss).
Cowboys still probably have the best chance to reach 6.

A Washington victory over Pittsburgh would be hilarious!
 
Yes it would.

A result like that is needed to stop the bottom team in NFC West (expected to be the 49'ers) having an equal or even better record than the divisonal winners in NFC East.

Incredible.+
 
Silence is golden, :( whupped yet again as cowboys defence has been so poor this year regardless of injuries, almost every team has managed 30 points against them. Yet crazily they are not dead yet, withj games still against Giants and Eagles to come and other winnable? games.
For sure it is possible a 6 win team could reach the play-offs. No different to our crazy play-off system where the 6th placed team can be miles behind 3rd place yet gains promotion. I have always preferred a play-off between 3rd top and 3rd bottom like we had with Chelsea.
 
change of thred somewhat, but have you seen how many players and coaches in USA are catching or having to isolate due to Covid 19?, has to be of concern to many as its not exactly a sport you can play and social distance. Although looking at some attempts at tackling some players are practicing it.

Reflects the case rate overall here right now. With such big squads, there's always the risk that someone catches Covid or becomes a close contact to someone positive. Real shame that the Raven/Steelers game was hit Thursday night (and now looks likely to go ahead without Lamarr Jackson QBing).
