NFL Monday Afternoon Rewind - NFC
Everyone out of the pool!
Giants 14, Redskins 20
If Giants fans needed one GIF to sum up this game, here it is.
Actually this one works as well.
Just a brutal Eli day when you needed good Eli to show up. And this is why I love Eli, whenever you think he’s playing well he’ll throw out a total stinker to keep you grounded. He might be my favorite non Bear quarterback.
ODB continues to be absurd (in losses)
And his snoopy/charlie brown cleats were awesome.
As for the Skins, first place out of nowhere and Kirk Cousins playing well (who I always thought was better than RGIII). And yes they’ve beaten some really crappy teams along the way (Rams, Eagles, Bucs, Saints) but 85% of the league is crappy so that will happen. You like that?
Vikings 20, Falcons 10
AP pulling the chair out.
Vikings PIMP squad looking good.
Lets talk about Matt Ryan.
Why the hell does Matt Ryan get a pass? Seriously, it makes no sense. Jay Cutler, Stafford, those guys get killed week in and week out whenever they have a bad game, then you have Matt Ryan throwing interceptions into the end zone and everyone is wondering why Matty Ice is a little off. Huh? A little off? That’s just what he is. When do we all admit he’s just not that good. I’m not saying he’s bad, he’s just not that good and the nickname Matty Ice makes no sense.
Little basketball intermission because there were so few NFC games.
Swissssssh.
Cardinals 19, 49ers 13
The 49ers season summed up in one vine.
I’m going to miss you, Jim.
I’m going to really miss you.
Oh and this game featured probably the dumbest 5 minutes of football I’ve ever watched.
Steelers 30, Seahawks 39
We have 2 yards to gain, lets’ run a fake punt with our backup quarterback throwing to a lineman!
Jimmy Graham with an unbelievable catch, RIP.
This honestly was one of the best games of the year. Back and forth action, big plays, big hits. It made me remember why I love football so much. And Russ Wilson, for annoying as he is, absolutely balled.
And Mike Tomlin pulled a Dan Quinn. Down 5 with 3 minutes left facing 4th and goal from 3 he kicked a field goal. I don’t understand how some NFL Coaches come to these decisions. Absolutely Brutal.
Oh and Big Ben, you got OWNED
