There's your talent SQ, MEGATRON!!! *Beasial Roar*

Stafford vs Foles in my fantasy game today...should be high scoring...(fart noise)

I love football!!!

Conventional wisdom might that the passing game will suffer because of the weather, but I think a receiver has a big advantage here - he knows which way he's going in advance.  Much easier to move first than react.  Calvin could very well have a beastly game.

Drinking game from /r/NFL

 

Grab a mug of hot cocoa and prepare yourself for the Lions/Eagles Snow Ball Drinking Game!

-Whenever a player fumbles: Take a sip.

-Whenever a team punts: Eat a mini-marshmallow.

-If a pass is completed for a first down: Try to suck one of your mini-marshmallows through your straw.

-If a player makes a snow-angel in the end zone after scoring a touchdown: Down your hot cocoa and make another mug.

-If a snowblower/shoveler trips and falls on camera: Shoot hot cocoa out of your nose.

-Whenever the announcers make a Christmas song/movie reference: Ummm....drink more hot cocoa.

 

Ugh come on Joique that's a free 3 points.

GODDAMMIT

Nooooo

jesus Bell......this is pathetic.

Sheesh, dude, hold on to the ball.

Bell with 2 lost fumbles already. GG Lions.

It'll be interesting to see if anyone gets away with penalties the refs simply cannot see. Play reviews could be shaky too. I love this weather. I played in this stuff. Seriously, it was a blast.

All the players with dreadlocks are going to have icicles pretty soon.

Not much bouncing of the ball on punts. This weather affects EVERYTHING.

if anything....Stafford has been on the money when he does throw the ball.

My God, catch the ball please. Detroit looks 100 times better than Philly and still can't show for it on the scoreboard.

Gotta body catch everything today.

get frustrated by lack of results, they are having results. Just keep ging patient. The Eagles are going to have their own turnover and the way field position has been, it's going to be at an inopportune moment for them. Well, a more inopportune moment than the usual inopportune moment.

thats what we needed. now go get some points.

Six right here!

what is the rule for when the football gets stuck on an upright in a pile of snow?  

Lions D looks outstanding thus far. All the DB's needed was 6 inches of snow to become average.

Foles has been a ticking time bomb.  Can we make them pay please

even if they don't make it, what's Philly gonna do with it?

And he didn't fumble it!

Huge TD! Going for 2?
