They could always put the QB2 in for the obvious QB sneak. Or have the RB take the snap--a Wildcat QB sneak.😉 If it's 4th and inches in a close game, it's worth the risk. If it's a blowout, why bother?
Got a tip for us?

hmmm not really.
Playing a sub and accepting the result either way isn't fixing but you were clearly talking about not winning on purpose and that is abhorrent.
And I know it does happen, but it shouldn't.
Anyone annoyed by the huge number of commercials near the end of the first half? The last two minutes took almost 20 minutes actual time. Every break in the action or timeout, they went to commercial. And not just a 30 second spot. A full two or three minutes.

I feel like we experience this every NFL game. I didn't notice it being any more annoying this time around... I guess because I'm so used to it... I've started going on my phone or ipad during commercial breaks now so i guess I don't notice the time as much.
By halftime (which was only approximately 1900 here) I was having trouble keeping my eyes open so I was welcoming the commercials. Regularly, however, they are QUITE annoying and as was said, they look for ANY excuse to go to break. (And usually those breaks feature Mahomes and crew...but I won't get started on THAT.)
Now that is getting a bit annoying... Seeing Mahomes and his kermit the frog voice every other commercial is getting a little annoying..... There are other great NFL players that these advertisers can choose from my gosh.By halftime (which was only approximately 1900 here) I was having trouble keeping my eyes open so I was welcoming the commercials.

Don't forget the Kelce Bros and their mom too.
Though, to be fair...I did like Andy Reid's nuggies commercial.

They are not bad commercials, they just get played way too much.

And yes, I want the RAIDERS to win. No thanks to tanking/fixing. I don't care about the draft because our stupid staff will squander the picks anyway.

Good. I don't like basketball and it seems Christmas day was NBA day. Glad I'll have some football to watch.
Ok, same... but man is that going to piss off my wife...
"On Christmas day!?!? They should be with their families!!!" ad nauseam ...
So you're saying The Darnold can be 'sneaky' athletic. Down for that
Don't give CMC any ideas... he'll put his body through anything. We need him healthy to get the final prize.
I know the NBA has to be pissed about this... christmas was their marquee day for sure... But the NFL will absolutely crush their ratings.
Not that anyone cares, but after winning the championship last year, and starting a dour 1-5 this year, my fantasy football team powered on to multiple victories, to gain the 4th and final playoff spot, despite a 7-8 record.
Alas, my best WR, Jamarr Chase, will be out. Tyler Lockett in

Saints and Rams tonight. I don’t follow or care about either team but they both have a 7-7 record so hopefully it will be a decent game.
It's always a decent game when one's local team wins.....and the Rams are certainly looking better than earlier in the season. Defense still needs to step up a bit.
Yeah, I have to say though the Rams are showing signs of life, Cooper Kupp doesn’t look really sharp yet, and to be at their best they need him to be sharp. Puka Nacua had a good game though.
I didn't watch. The score was close. It wasn't a decent game?
I would have been for the Saints though...
I wrote that in the third quarter when it was 27-7 Rams. The Saints scored 15 points in the fourth. I think my indifference about either team was showing through.
Didn't watch the game, but the score made it at least somewhat interesting for those who stuck around till the fourth quarter.
