Data from two minute warning...

Good call...i went to bed at halftime thinkin i had a win wrapped up. Woke up this morning mad. haha

Stickin with these trends I'm favoring Titans and Rams.

I don't want to start a shitfest in Roberto's thread but come on. Jac got lucky last night on the pick 6. A win is a win and congrats but GB was covering the entire 1st half and most of the 2nd half until that bonehead throw. GL tonight Roberto.

Real deal, sure that pick was lucky at the end, but remember how GB got the ball. A fumble where JAX probably would have been forced to kick a pretty makeable FG...tit  for tat...but yes, lucky none the less.
