The Titans scored at the end of the 4th quarter to make it 20-19, and went for two.  Obviously it worked because it would have worked for McCarthy against Arizona too.

Vikings and Jets tied; Detroit up 10 on Miami; Chicago leading the Patriots.

Trouble risky is gawd awful. There where many open receivers against the goat herd today, but throwing off his back foot the ball was uncatchable or put only where the defense could get it. The goat herd was also pretty bad. Just really a poor NFL game. I see the wheels coming off the bores season real soon. 

Why is it when I watch a game it is nothing like what the talking heads say it is? I’m convinced most of these gas heads only read stat line. Some dumb twit on NBC sports radio actually said Trubisky had a good game. WTF?

He'd have a great game if he could throw a football 5 more yards

I think that was the same KC D-lineman that had Tom Brady wrapped up last week, let him go for the exact reason you mention, Tom ran 5 yards for a TD. TD stood. 

It’s hard to play defense in 2018.

330 yards, 2 TD's - must be a good game. Just gotta ignore the 2 int's and 50 pass attempts. 

I will say he was pretty effective with his legs yesterday but that guy that flashed against Tampa Bay isn't real at this point. 

Mack now has a bad wheel.  Will be really interesting to see if he can heal it up or if it slows him the rest of the season.  That D downshifts at least a gear if Mack isn't 100% with his hair on fire.

and ignore the 2-3 passes right into the hands of Patriots in end zone, which they uncharacteristically dropped. That stat line is more an indictment of the Patriots poor defense than the effectiveness of Trouble Risky.

MNF guys wondering why NY going for two with 4 minutes left in the 4th down 8. 

I mean **** man. It’s 2018. Use some ****ing math. Odds of winning go up if go for two there instead of kicking a long assed extra point. You fail you are down 8. 1 possession. 

**** I hate listening to 1990 cavemen. 

Sorry to like all your posts, C'Jon, but I can't (and won't) argue with any of them.
MNF has been a shell of itself since it went to espn. All their money goes towards the TV contract, not for on-air talent, apparently.

Atlanta is gawd-awful, as you say. There's a bandwagon down here like none other. Win a few games, and all sorts of cockroaches come out of the woodwork. Lose a few, and you hear crickets by halftime. 
Get behind in games and the house empties by 3rd quarter.

Giants scored earlier & inexplicably went for 2 when going for 1 made more sense. OBJ dropped the 2-pointer. making the score 20-12 Atlanta at the time. 

As it turns out it didn't make a difference at all but it could've if the Falcons missed their late FG.

Who cares.....I was watching Bucks kick the crap outta the Knicks. Way more fun....
