ATL: Week 5

Gabbert taking a safety and refusing to dump it off to Hyde just cost me $125 in DK. Thanks, idiot.

That's ok, the fact that he continued to complete 3 and 4 yard passes to Hyde when they were down 17pts with 3-4 minutes left gave my opponent a nice advantage this week by picking up a bunch of garbage time points.

I would have liked for AZ to go 1-4 but SF is bad.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Even with the win, I'm still feeling pretty good about my bold prediction that the Cardinals won't make the playoffs this year.

So the Vikings are just going to be legitimately good this year? Not sure I'm cool with that.

Texans might honestly be the worst team in the league without JJ Watt.

Only losing by 3 to this Vikings team is more impressive than either of the Packers' 2 wins....lol

When I was watching the Texans play the Patriots the week before, I thought, "There can't be a worse NFL team than this."

This not being the first one to touch the ball after going out of bounds thing is really screwing Cooper this year.

If your name starts out spelled Mike McC--chances are, you are a head coach of a football team that finds ways to lose.

They seem to do this a lot though. Start of the season super hot and then just flop when it matters. Granted this is a different coaching scheme and each season is independent of one another, but I'll believe it when they make a run in the playoffs for once.

I can't buy Atlanta's defense to keep them in games. That offense with those playmakers can score with the best of them, but we saw the same thing last year when they started 5-0 and then the defense just collapsed down the stretch. It's still an impressive win, don't get me wrong.

It was an impressive win for the Falcons but in a way it told me more about denver than Atlanta. Denver is gonna have a hard time beating good teams with their qb situation. Im not sure if they would be able to make the cap situation work but if they could they should absolutely be calling the cowboys about romo.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

The #Vikings are placing OT Andre Smith on Injured Reserve and coach Mike Zimmer said he’ll have surgery tomorrow. Another one…

Norv Turner is one of the best O coordinators in the league, but that awful o line, with no run game has to mean Bradford is going to start getting hit. Bradford is no iron man.

Man, both starting tackles and AP. Bradford is better than Bridgewater so I'm not giving them that one. Hell, McKinnon might be a better fit for Turner's offense as well. They are not a deep OL though, so that will be interesting to follow.

Vikings are also signing Jake Long. http://nfltraderumors.co/vikings-sign-ot-jake-long-one-year-deal/
