someone brings up 80's huskers, that's enuff trigger for me

Agree.  They were outgained 640-172.  That’s unheard of in the NFL.  I had the game on piddling around the house all afternoon.  The Giants actually made the final numbers a little more respectable when Dallas pulled its starters in the 4th, but most of the game that looked like something Nebraska would have done to Northern Illinois in 1983.

At some point in the 4th quarter I believe the graphic said NY had 17 yards passing.  I think the old LSU teams with the inept Jordan Jefferson and Jarrett Lee rotating hopelessly at QB that went like 5 games or something without breaking 100 yards in the air could've passed for more than 17 yards.  I mean.......17.  Yikes.

Lions are 7-2. Firmly in place of a death grip on the NFC North and legit contenders for the #1 seed in the NFC.

They have the Bears & Packers at home, then @Saints, @Bears, Broncos at home, @Vikings, @Cowboys, then close out with Vikings at home.

Can't ask for an easier close for the schedule. Cowboys are the only legit team they play to close it out. They should go 7-1 or 6-2 to close out the season.

I feel like I am dreaming. What is this?

How are the Bills losing at home to one of the worst teams in the NFL? 

At one point is Josh Allen not considered elite? He’s super talented, but god damn is he a turnover machine.

Just got back from my son's Scouts meeting, and it's tied 15-15.  So I take it the Bills tied it up recently?

Bills committed to the lie, by actually putting the fake Damar Hamlin into the game

[FearlessF]

Russell Wilson takes the sack?

[MarqHusker]

12th man flag?  Pro football?

[ELA]

The Bills are the Chargers of the NFC.  Just squandering a good QB with horrible roster management 

[FearlessF]

Looked like a big ten west game

Looked like a big ten west game

Nah, I swear I saw some completed forward passes.  And in the end nobody was rewarded with a pig themed trophy

[FearlessF]

about the same number of turnovers as completed passes

better running by QBs than passing

awesome special teams play

decent defense

The Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos are responsible for the only 15-8 halftime scores in NFL history. The second occurrence took place on Monday night, 62 years after the first one. 


If that wasn't ironic enough, the Broncos were the team that led at halftime of both games. And if that wasn't ironic enough, the Bills scored on a two-point conversion after their first touchdown in both contests, according to EliasSports (h/t ESPN). 

The first game, played in Week 1 of the 1961 season, ended with the Broncos recording a 22-10 win. The star of that game was Broncos perennial Pro Bowl safety Goose Gonsoulin, who picked off two passes.

Sounds like the NFL bought that first one
