Steve Wyche:

Packers LB Clay Matthews questionable to return (hamstring). That's in addition to Finley (out, concussion), Starks (knee) ques to return

 

[ChrisPozz]

Eli Manning picked off for the first time today deep in their own territory.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Yep, go ahead Mike McCarthy. Go ahead and THINK you have a running back in Jonathan Franklin. Go ahead. Not that you've ever really, really wanted a running game anyway.

4 rushes for Locker today. 3 for first downs, 1 for a TD.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Cam Newton 3-yard rushing TD on a draw. Carolina up 31-0.

 

[clyde_carbon]

2 lost fumbles in the first 3 weeks for Peterson.

 

[ChrisPozz]

That Cardinals offense that looked "much better" than the 49ers offense has put up 167 total yards going into the 4th quarter vs. the Saints. They've only had 1 long drive since the early goings.

 

[ChrisPozz]

I mentioned a Vincent Jackson injury earlier but didn't say what it was. It's a rib injury and he's questionable to return.

 

[ChrisPozz]

3 Hoyer INTs now. This last one was deflected into the air and picked off. MIN has the ball on the CLE 9 down 7 points.

Ha! And Ponder overthrows a WIDE open Joe Webb in the endzone. WIDE open by 3-4 steps easy.

 

[Kinzu]

Just imagine if the Browns had not traded their best player.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Ponder 8-yard TD run to tie the game. His 2nd rushing TD of the day. Took a huge shot to his back area as he was going into the end zone. A HUGE shot.

 

[clyde_carbon]

AND...Rodgers was just INT'd. James Jones shorted that slant route. Bengals have the balls in Packers' territory down 9.

They traded Joe Haden?

 

[Rvnight18]

They traded Joe Haden?

Thank you. Him and Joe Thomas are better.

Joe Thomas.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Cincy's Mike Nugent 52-yard FG attempt missed wide left. Still down by 9.

 

[imac_21]

Joe Thomas.

Also acceptable. I had Haden on the mind because if the Browns are willing to have a fire sale, he and Gordon would be who I'd call about.

 

[ChrisPozz]

RGIII with a 25+ yard run and he possibly fumbled at the end as he was sliding/diving forward. Ruled a fumble and Lions recovered. Shanahan going to challenge. Because he didn't slide feet first, RGIII was still a live runner because he wasn't touched before he fumbled.

It's all good. I was kind of just being difficult in a light-hearted way. Plus, Joe Thomas is often a forgotten man by many on that team.
