Week 17 early games

[bvanthielriceyoung]

Falcons looking pretty tough so far. Their defense is actually playing pretty strong, up 7-0

Patterson for the vikings continues to make some big plays here late in the year. FF players for next year, might be a guy to keep an eye on!

Jared Allen should've had an OFFENSIVE touchdown for Minnesota but Cassel threw wide of him. Wide open. Might be Allen's last game as a Viking and many expect it to be.

Atlanta going to be forced to settle for 3 after a Hardy sack. 5 sacks in his last game and almost a half

 

[ChrisPozz]

Carolina has 31 total yards. 23 of which are rushing yards. 16 of those 23 rushing yards came on a 3rd down and long scramble by Cam for a first down.

I continue to applaud the work Mike Nolan and company have done with their 3 young linebackers.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Dolphins are concerned about a knee injury Brian Hartline suffered a few minutes ago. The trainers did not look pleased on the sideline when they were examining him. That would be a semi-big blow if they make the playoffs.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Tyrod Taylor replacing Flacco after Flacco was hit by two defenders in the end zone as he was attempting a pass. Cincinnati up 7-6.

cam newton 1 of 7 and a pick for the day so far

 

[ChrisPozz]

A.J. Green probably going to be charged with a dropped TD pass. Slightly out of his reach but it needed to be caught.

wow, huge screen to deanglo williams probably for 60 yards or so and then he fumbles at the end

And that's going to remain a fumble after a review. Stripped by Robert Alford. Another young player you could talk about on that Falcons defense.

aw, then matt ryan throws a pick six

 

[jds_49ers]

Matt Ryan sucks so bad, lol

 

[ChrisPozz]

1st and goal from the 1 yard line and Sheldon Richardson scored on the 1-yard plunge and then went down to the ground with some kind of injury. Didn't have to do much to score. 2nd rushing TD of the season for Richardson.

Matt Ryan just threw a bad pick 6, if that wasn't on Harry Douglas, following the fumble. Argh!

Flacco REMAINS in the game following that nasty hit. No Tyrod Taylor.

Dolphins are fearing a torn ACL.

Annnnnnnnd that's Roddy White's 2nd or 3rd drop of the half giving Atlanta a 3rd and 8 backed up deep.

Gonzo converts for them - 19 yards. Ryan with a nice step up with Thomas Davis closing in quick.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Andy Dalton passes Carson Palmer for most passing yards in a season by a Bengal QB.

 

[ChrisPozz]

GREAT special teams play by Atlanta. Batted a punt backwards inside the 5 and then downed by another Falcons player..

Flacco REMAINS in the game following that nasty hit. No Tyrod Taylor.

And then he wasn't in on defense following that play when he suffered some kind of injury.

Around the League (twitter):

Colts losing key defenders to injuries. Vontae Davis (groin), Aubrayo Franklin (knee), Bjoern Warner (ankle) all questioanble to return.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Marvin Jones with a HELL of a shorter touchdown catch from Dalton. Wow! Bengals have now scored 13 TDs in their last 13 red zone trips. Very impressive.

10 TDs for Jones on the season. Had a 4 TD catch game earlier in the season which inflates the number a bit.
