Wowsah, Philip Rivers is playing an NFL game today. It's been five years since he played an NFL game. That's crazy.

Yes, that was Chris Berman...he and Tom Jackson were the best. So clever and kept things moving
ACL. Out for rest of season, not that it matters any more.
And he played very darn well. That INT at the end of the game was partly deflected to the defense.
The best medicine for any struggling team is to play the Raiders, it seems. Or the Giants. Or the Bengals. Or the Titans.
I flipped back and forth between Rams/Lions and Hawks/Colts. Colts should have won that game. One defensive mistake at the end turned it. Rams look strong, and Lions aren’t bad either. Sorry I couldn’t see the Bills/Patriots, but we didn’t get that game here.
I hate to see anybody tear an ACL (having been through that), but glad to see the Bolts get the win. I’ll be happy this year if the Eagles don’t make it to the SB. I wish they would change the playoff format to a record-based metric and do away with automatic berths for division winners. Why reward a team for winning a weak division?

If this is it for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, I think Bo Nix and the Broncos are ready to take over the AFC.
Also, @mrpackerguy has been spot on about Jordan Love from day one.

It was pretty cool seeing Rivers out there, playing well and obviously having a good time.
That it was. Here in Indiana, his role is helping make some lemonade out of the lemons of injuries the Colts have suffered
Did you see the HS football team he coaches had a watch party to see their coach play in the NFL again? Very cool for those kids.

You don't think overheated purple prose is inappropriate for advertising hype?
It sure looked like Miami threw away that game as the fourth quarter started.

Indeed. They played as if they were very disinterested in it all.
...and the "worst 11-2 team in the league", just won their 11th game in a row..
~SHhhhhh..

After the amount of players on the injured list this past week, I wasn't really expecting a Steelers win last night but I'll take it. A win is a win... again. 
They made the Steelers look like a playoff team.
I see a three-year Tomlin extension in our future.
Tomlin is fortunate McDonald gave up and decided not to keep throwing it to Waller.
Totally reminded me of the Brady to Welker games.

With throwing to the middle of the field and targeting tight ends, it looked like Tomlin let AR call the plays. It's like when Ben pulled out so many 4th quarter comebacks by taking over playcalling.
Nah. That's just bad my Fins really are. The previous 4 weeks they were in some kind of altered state.
I think you're right. KC already had to make a lot of changes this upcoming off season. One more might be at QB now. Mahomes may not be the old Mahomes again.
