    Pitre was robbed (really punished for missing games with a concussion)

    Lassiter has a good argument, but tackling CBs rarely receive accolades

    Used to be Free Safety and Strong Safety. As the offenses evolved so did the defenses. Bullock (think prime Ed Reed) is the free safety, Pitre (think prime Polamolu) is the slot corner, box safety, whatever the hell you call his position now. The voting hasn't changed with the times.

    ...and yeah, Lassiter deserves more love than he gets. As Ryans said a few weeks ago about how good he is and the backfield in general: "if Sting wasn't on the other side of the field we'd be having a different conversation."

    We should pick him up. Imagine CJ having the Rico/Nico duo as weapons.

    Make it so (or any other comparably good RB). Would he be happy splitting time with Marks though?

    I feel like this eagles offense is worse than the Texans offense. Glad I’m a Texans fan

    Eagles don't have a qb, so they need everything to be perfect to be able to function. Without lane johnson they suck.

    Chargers should've just taken the points after that gift of a turnover. Also their DBs keep slipping all over the field and giving Pats receivers wide open catches.

    All these AFC teams have looked very beatable

    Would we rather face the Bills at home or the weak ass Patriots?

    I started the night rooting for LA but I have switched to NE.

    Let us beat the Patriots and the Bills take care of Denver. We host the AFC Championship game in Houston. This is the scenario I am rooting for.

    Bills at home. Texans have never won a road playoff game.

    To be fair, in order to even get to this game, they will have won one.

    Patriots easily. Texans can beat everyone but pats a much easier game.

    No reason to think the Texans can put up more points against NE than the Chargers given the state of our offense.

    Texans starting a revenge tour to the SB

    Steelers for the 70/80s
    Patriots for those Brady years and letterman jacket game
    Bills for 32 pt comeback

    This Chargers Oline not being able to handle basic stunts is bringing back nightmares of last year

    I don't think football is for you. Every post from you is doom and gloom misery.
