Ugh that was rough last night. Bruins got hit by a buzz saw. They play in Buffalo tonight.

 

Pats will probably try and run up the score for the deflate gate garbage. Colts are undermanned and just played 5 quarters 4 days ago and now on the road. I will watch if it’s close.

It was only rough if you were a Bruins fan.   

 

Like any blow out even my wife said she was losing interest.   After 5-0 I would just listen for the horn and hit rewind or to watch the fights.

No TY Hilton, Jack Doyle, or Marlon Mack - 3 starters on offense. Plus without their leading tackler on D. Coming off an OT game. On a short week. On the road. Game, blouses :(

As @teefis fond of saying 

 

Cake walk

Yes but on the plus side I picked up Nyheim Hines on waivers last week.

The RTP rules are all the craze in the media right now, but for the sake of player safety (i.e. looking at the Colts' injury report), can we ****ing get rid of TNF as soon as possible? 

 

All those scheduling idiots need to do is have Thursday football only on the nine weeks they have bye's (week 4-12)   

 

This gives fans and everyone 9 weeks of Thursday night football, and helps the players because you only schedule Thursday night games with teams coming off their bye week.  

 

Problem solved, nice compromise for players and fans alike.

I'll be watching the game but checking in on the VGK score. I've never really been an anti-fan, but these bandwagon d-bags in Vegas are too much. If this team is bad, tickets will be available at the 99 cent store. 

 

I'm gonna take the 10 on Indy because I enjoy losing money.

Curious to see how season 2 goes for VGK.

 

10 points ......  I hope you didn't bet $5000

I worked on the other side of a sportsbook counter for 10 years, so I'm not with that foolishness.

 

I'll put down 55 if I LOVE a game.

Fans love the TNF every week.  It's a rating s gold mine.  It's going nowhere.

Tommy boy isn’t able to completely recover since he had less time to lubricate his !@#$ with avocado ice cream and gets his collar bone completely shattered in the 2nd qtr right before the half.

 

the colts win 162-5

 

By the end of the year, Brady's would have been  replacement in NE (Jimmy G) will have missed as many games as starter due to injury as Brady has missed in 17 years as starter.

Honestly, it is unhealthy how much I hate NE. I cannot even watch games involving that team unless they are losing by double digits and even then I'm a mess the entire time.

 

Luckily tonight is the Sabres first game!

 

As much as I hate to say this, NE losing feels as good if not better than the Bills winning lately. Maybe it's the stakes involved for the Bills have been so low, whereas with NE it's all about stopping them from getting to the Super Bowl, and every loss makes that tougher.

Five things to watch for in Colts-Patriots on 'TNF'

 

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000969773/article/five-things-to-watch-for-in-coltspatriots-on-tnf

 

After being spurned during the offseason by New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels for the then-vacant head coach position in Indianapolis, Colts general manager Chris Ballard provided a comment to fuel future matchups.

 

"The rivalry is back on," Ballard said on Feb. 7 as he walked away from the podium.

 

The Colts eventually hired Frank Reich, but the first step of Ballard's declaration occurs in Week 5 of the 2018 regular season when the Colts (1-3) and Patriots (2-2) renew acquaintances on Thursday Night Football.

 

The rivalry between the two teams peaked during numerous Peyton Manning-Tom Brady showdowns. And the high-profile competition between the two teams drew further national attention on the heels of the 2014 AFC Conference Championship game, which produced the Deflategate scandal and later a four-game suspension for Brady in 2016.

 

While there are off-field matters to add fire to the matchup, the players still have a game to play, of course.

 

...whoa Big Dawg......the LUCK IS DONE thread convinced me not even to watch...now what??..........

I don't always watch Thursday night games, but when I do, I need to know what channel they are on.

 

Last week, or the week before, it wasn't on any of the network stations-i only have antenna.  I have heard it's on Amazon for prime members, is that true??
