Yay we get to see Brock one more time this game!! Woohoo!! Maybe he won't look like a steaming pile of �� this meaningless drive.

I wonder if not winning the division will be enough to get BOB fired.

I'm hoping OB bolts to Notre Dame at this point. He's obviously had to dumb down this offense for this POS QB, but he's the one who sticks with him and obviously doesn't have the nads to make a change. A lot of his in-game coaching decisions have been questionable as well. Doubt it could get any worse with a HC and QB change. This team is a complete bore.

Aw crap, that was a real stinker.
Hey but one thing - gotta give it up for Novak & crew because that was one helluva onside kick !

Starting anyone other than BO would directly defy the owner's wishes.

Of course starting BO is a losing proposition.

Nope. Still a hot steaming pile of �� (imagination emoji).
