Ball burst .. game now over..IND 13 - KC 31
Bit harsh on Luck there. He wasn't exactly getting much help.

Rams looking a much better team but Peters (LA corner back) is working hard at keeping Dallas in the Game. Only one score in it and Cowboys are driving.

Rams are running over Dallas.  Cowboys 15 Rams 30 .. Dallas driving .. just converted on 4th and one.

Penalty against Rams in end zone puts Dallas on the 1 yard line. Prescott dives over for touchdown.
Score now Cowboys 22 Rams 30

3rd and long on the 2 minute warning. Rams driving.. if they can get a first down game is over.

Phillip Rivers is a broken man!!

Rivers has been terrible - yes he's been under unreal pressure but hasn't looked to get the ball into the flat at anytime to Gordon and has been crying at the officials since 1st qrtr

Pats have been worryingly good tho!!

Saints are slowly getting the better of the Eagles who got out to a 14-0 lead on the saints. Currently 17-14 to the saints in the fourth quarter.

Horrible start from the Saints. Right from the interception on the first play by Brees. 14-0 down in first quarter. What a step up from that point onwards. Eagles barely able to get a first down at all on their possessions. Michael Thomas was untouchable and from half time the Saints finally started to get Kamara into the game. They'd have to be concerned about the amount of penalties that they gave away though (particularly frustrated by the Hill to Kamara TD being chalked off fs).

Special mention to Lattimore with the 2 picks.  He was excellent all night.

Rams will be a different animal. Saints have been decent at stopping the rush all year and they will need to be on top form in that regard. Thankfully it is in the Dome.

We saw the real Nick Foles the last two weeks. Very average. Some team is going to go ahead and plough a load of cash into him in the offseason though.

Yeah he was poor. looked like a lost sheep at times. loads of under thrown passes. the noise of the dome seemed to cause him major distractions too.  In saying that, their run game basically became non existent in the 2nd half and the saints were able to adjust the coverage accordingly.

Would he be an upgrade for the Bears?

No way.
