Shocking that McCarthy would use a timeout when we're punting the ball from our own 1 yard line. Take the penalty and lose 1.5 feet. Makes no sense.

The murder of Peterson's child is tragic but now having read the story I find it difficult to muster sympathy for Peterson. His first interaction with the child was when the boy was on life support. Hopefully, Peterson plays some role in the lives of the other two women who bore him children. I have to wonder how many other "families" Mr. Peterson has created.

In many ways.  Cobb probably done for the year.  That's the biggest issue.  Jones could have something serious based on how he was walking, but the actual hit didn't look nearly as bad as Cobb's.  Packers might REALLY struggle if Cobb is out more than a week or 2.  Offense already looks awful.

Both sides, just a train wreck of a game.

I don't think the offense has been the same since Philbin left.  I think he was way more important in the development of game plans...in game adjustments...and just a sounding board for MM than we fully understand.

Agreed.  Good point.

My god, Vikings.

Holy $&@! Texans.

The level of football by both teams today is beyond pathetic.

Packers now have three of their next four at home.  The road game is Sunday night v. the Vikings.  Hopefully they can overcome their injuries and put a nice little stretch together now.

A lot of people are mixing him up with his other son, who he pretty actively involved with. 

I am pretty sure Adrian, Jr. lives with him.

I believe the son that died is a son from another mother that he wasn't aware of until recently.

I really think they should win every game from now to Thanksgiving.

Depends on the injuries.

I know that he did have a DNA test on the son who just died.

Lions at 4-2, 2-2 on the road.  I was fortunate enough to miss the first 3 quarters and only see them dominate the 4th, getting next to nothing from Calvin Johnson.    Being a fatalistic Lions fan, the only positive thing I am willing to say right now is that the Lions won't lose 13 games this year.

How about them ViQueens JB?

I just read a column by Charlie Walters of Pioneer Press, he thinks Ponder will be traded by the deadline or else released just after it.

Frazier might get to finish the season - SKOL!!

that MNF game next week (MN @ Giants) should get HUGE ratings

Just wanted to call it ahead of time, but I think Jags beat Chargers tomorrow.

Kudos to the Lions for finding a new way to lose after all of these years.   Get the ball back with 1:40 to play, play conservatively, don't get the second first down to keep moving down the field, have your rookie punter shank a punt, giving the Bengals the ball near midfield with 26 seconds left, two quick completions, 54 yard field goal, ballgame.

Just like the Queens are better off without Ponder, the Bears are better off without Cutler.

Bears defense is as bad as I have seen going back to Abe Gibron...the injuries have just shown the defense is getting old.  McKown proved to be a great back-up in the West Coast offense with a 120 rating.  Don't know what game these refs were watching but that offsides, in particular, on the onside kick was horrible...and I believe very late after the Bears recovered.  In the end, if you cannot make a stop at all (problem all season), made worse by injuries, it will be a long season.  Looks like Cutler out a span as well.
