this is always my favorite week to be in Vegas...sadly I'll be spending most of the weekend behind the snow blower...expecting up to a foot here in the Heartland....good time to make a bigass pot of chicken/andouille gumbo and crack a new bottle of Four Roses Small Batch going with the old "deuces never loses" theory this week... Rams 24 Saint 17 Patriots 34 Chiefs 31 enjoy the games b.d.

Not to worry Gooch, Pitchers and catchers will be reporting before ya know it...unless NO POLITICS can figure out a way to screw us on Americas Pastime...
I'm all over the Saints -3 and KC-3. Bet them straight and tied. Hey Daddio...snow on the ground here, a dusting. Just enough to screw up any plans outside. It's Sunday so Sunday's are Beef Pot Roast w/Taters, carrots and onions. Ladle some brown gravy over it all and dig in...NO HAGGIS. :>)
Saints 24 Rams 14
KC 31 Pats 27

My favorite moments were when the referees, on two occasions, called time outs to review and confer and inform us that "The clock is correct!"

I am so done with football. Now I see the line for the Action in Atlanta is Pats -2, likely to be a pick'um at on game day. Rules have to change for overtime games. That roughing the passer call against KC was absolute donkey dung. Worst call ever! The non call for interference in the Saints game is a close runner up. Am I a disgruntled fan? Yep. But Andy Reid is pissed!

The bonehead who lined up offside, cost them the game, IMO.
btw, what's the diff between 'offsides', 'encroachment' (my favorite), and 'neutral zone infraction'?

Rule 7, Section 4
ARTICLE 3. ENCROACHMENT. It is Encroachment if a defensive player enters the neutral zone and contacts an offensive player or the ball prior to the snap, or if he interferes with the ball during the snap. The play is dead immediately.
Penalty: For Encroachment: Loss of five yards from the line of scrimmage. The foul is enforced prior to the snap.
ARTICLE 4. NEUTRAL ZONE INFRACTION. It is a Neutral Zone Infraction when: (a) a defender moves beyond the neutral zone prior to the snap and is parallel to or beyond an offensive lineman, with an unimpeded path to the quarterback or kicker, even though no contact is made by a blocker; officials are to blow their whistles immediately (b) a defender enters the neutral zone prior to the snap, causing the offensive player(s) in close proximity (including a quarterback who is under center) to react (move) immediately to protect himself (themselves) against impending contact; officials are to blow their whistles immediately. If there is no immediate reaction by the offensive player(s) in close proximity, and the defensive player returns to a legal position prior to the snap without contacting an opponent, there is no foul. A flexed or split receiver is considered to be in close proximity if he is lined up on the side of the ball on which the violation occurs; other offensive players are considered to be in close proximity if they are within two-and-one-half positions of the defender who enters the neutral zone. If the defender is directly over the center, a quarterback under center, the center, and the guards and tackles on both sides of the center are considered to be within close proximity; if the defender is in a gap, the two offensive players on either side of the gap are considered to be within close proximity (including a quarterback under center, if applicable) (c) a player, after he has received a warning, enters the neutral zone. It is a foul, even if he returns to a legal position prior to the snap without contacting an opponent or causing a reaction (movement) by an offensive player in close proximity.
Penalty: For a Neutral Zone Infraction: Loss of five yards from line of scrimmage. Foul is enforced prior to snap.
ARTICLE 5. OFFSIDE. A player is offside when any part of his body is in or beyond the neutral zone or beyond a restraining line when the ball is put in play. Penalty: For offside: Loss of five yards.

Credit to Brady and coach B for scoring whenever they needed and the game-winning touchdown He must be the greatest since no D players are allowed to touch him! Rans’ D line might be a different story..... I hope Going in hard on LA as a small dog
