That, and he may not have a starting job to come back to if the new guy keeps playing like he did yesterday. Sorry to see Big Ben go, but it looks like it's time.

Cam, too?

New Orleans > Seattle, ugh.
Kansas City barely > Baltimore, darn

New Orleans/Seattle; ugh? It was a pretty good game I thought; went down to the last minute. I especially liked seeing Kamara (from UT) make Seattle lose their first home game in September in years.

New Orleans/Seattle; ugh?

What can I say? I'm a Seattle fan, but I don't hate New Orleans.

It was a pretty good game I thought;

Not on TV here.

went down to the last minute.

Sorry I missed it. When I posted it was 33-14 with 4:19 left. I figured it was over.

I was going to mock his being from Utah, but U. Tennessee isn't as bad.

Ended up 33-27 Utah? Do I look like a fucking Mormon?

[O Really]

Local TV sports and fans would beg to differ. No, there wouldn't be any begging, just violent disagreement. Weather in Seattle was barely, if, out of the 50's and drippling rain. Sit out there for three hours to see fumbles, 3s-and-outs, non-existent offensive line, and general incompetence. Against a team that didn't even miss its starting QB. Foulness might be expected.

Not gonna dispute that; I watched in a cool dry place with cold beer at the good right hand of Mr Natural.
Non existent offensive line? Maybe with Seattle; Kamara was pretty offensive from their point of view.

Seahawks O-line is going to get Wilson killed.
Kamara is indeed a beautiful runner, making the defense look as inept as the O-line.

Yeah, he had several runs that I could hardly believe; it was almost like he was a ghost.

... Utah? Do I look like a fucking Mormon?

Idk, I've never seen a Mormon fucking. Have you? . . . I did have these fantasies about Marie Osmond decades ago, though . . .

[O Really]

Opps - I read over that post too quickly - I thought he said "moron"

I never saw a Mormon fucking myself, but I suppose they were rather prolific at it back in the polygamy days; makes me tired just thinking about it. They were so prolific about it, the government got involved and the Mormons just said "well, we'll just go fuck in Mexico."

[Vrede too]

Poor Mexico.

I never saw a Mormon fucking myself ...

Don't take this wrong, but I'm glad that I never saw a Mormon fucking yourself, either.

[neoplacebo]

Guess I should have gone with "either" instead of "myself." I will confess to having done it with a Jew, an atheist, and a Methodist. The only Mormon I ever knew was a guy....he wasn't "my type" but then again he wasn't a bonafide Mormon; he smoked and drank alcohol and fit right in with my religions of Smokethist and Drinkapalian.

[Vrede too]

... I will confess to having done it with a Jew, an atheist, and a Methodist....

I've had a couple of threesomes but never a foursome, religiously diverse or otherwise. Bravo.

AH, I did not mean to insinuate that all that religious diversity happened at once, and I should have made all those designations plural as well. I may as well also admit to not being discriminatory in that I've also had "knowing" relations with what could correctly be described as female members of the so called snake handler sect.

Your "snake" was handled?

Let's just say there was the laying on of hands as well as the taking of the sacrament. Funny how my confessing to not being Mormon has led to all this non NFL banter. But then again, there's the concept of tight ends, pushing it right up the middle, and going for two. So i guess it's ok.

[Vrede too]

It's not as much fun when you're trying for the double (or foursome) entendres rather than stumbling into them.

[Vrede too]

Champions of something, don't get to say that too often. Beat the Pack, knocked em out of the playoffs, that was a good day.

That was then. Tonight = UGLY.

2-0 since, including stomping DC last night. Nice, but still tied for last in the NFC North.

neoplacebo's unBrees-y Saints lead the NFC South, fine by me.
The unbeaten Rams and the . . . 49ers?! lead the NFC West.
DC is winless in the NFC East, of course, but the 'boys lead it .

AFC South - Meh, don't much care, but neoplacebo may want his Titans to do better.
Go Ravens, early season AFC North (North?) champs.
The unbeaten Chiefs would be my last pick in the AFC West.
The unbeaten Pats, of course, and the . . . Bills?! lead the AFC East.

Report: Cam Newton has Lisfranc injury

Panthers quarterback Cam Newton‘s foot injury has already forced him to miss one game and will force him to miss at least one more. And it may be several more beyond that.

Newton has a Lisfranc injury to his foot, according to Joe Person of TheAthletic.com. That’s an injury that often requires season-ending surgery, but the report says that’s not expected for Newton.

Still, the Lisfranc injury is generally serious enough that it requires multiple weeks to heal. It seems unlikely that Newton would be back before the Panthers’ Week Seven bye.

With Newton out, Kyle Allen remains the Panthers’ starting quarterback. The only good news for the Panthers is that Allen played very well in Week Three — better, in fact, than Newton played in the first two games of this season. Newton’s long absence may not be the death knell for the Panthers’ season that it would have seemed, but it’s still discouraging that he’s dealing with a serious injury for the second consecutive season.

Lisfranc injury

Lisfranc injury, also known as Lisfranc fracture, is an injury of the foot in which one or more of the metatarsal bones are displaced from the tarsus.

The injury is named after Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin (2 April 1790–13 May 1847), a French surgeon and gynecologist who noticed this fracture pattern amongst cavalry men, in 1815, after the War of the Sixth Coalition.

... Direct Lisfranc injuries are usually caused by a crush injury, such as a heavy object falling onto the midfoot, or the foot being run over by a car or truck, or someone landing on the foot after a fall from a significant height (like a 275 pound defensive lineman?). Indirect Lisfranc injuries are caused by a sudden rotational force on a plantar flexed (downward pointing) forefoot. Examples of this type of trauma include a rider falling from a horse but the foot remaining trapped in the stirrup, or a person falling forward after stepping into a storm drain....

[GoCubsGo]

Ouch. I've had plantar fasciitis, painful as all get out, took forever to heal. This seems worse, especially for a professional athlete.

Cam might've met his kryptonite.
