Week 12 Recap!

Welcome Back Josh Gordon

Reports were that Josh Gordon was going to be on a limited snap count (around 30-40 snaps, only). 16 targets, 8 catches, and 120 yards later? NAHHHHHH. Welcome back, Flash Gordon.

Congratulations TY Hilton

T.Y. Hilton’s daughter was born Sunday morning at about 7:30 am. He spent the morning with her, showed up to the stadium late (past noon) for a 1pm kickoff. But he had a legitimate excuse… and then made up for his tardiness with 4 catches for 122 yards and a touchdown, all dedicated to his newborn daughter.

They named her Eugenia Emma Hilton, and they’re going to call her GG... D'awww....

Odell Beckham Jr.

You’ve heard it. You’ve seen it. Odell Beckham Jr. is a glorious freak of nature, and a WR1 the rest of the way. HERE IT IS AGAIN.

The Inadequacy Bowl – Chi/TB

This game could not have been more entertaining, but in a “Three Stooges” kind of way as opposed to a “Good Football” kind of way. Seriously… both teams looked completely horrible. Here’s a quick rundown of back-to-back fails: McCown pick (Bears to 10 yd line) followed by Cutler strip-sack (Bucs TD) followed by Mike Evans taunting call (Bears short field) followed by missed Robbie Gould field goal. WRETCHED.

Jonas Gray Sits/Blount benefits

Funny story: the game after he appears on the cover of Sports Illustrated, Jonas Gray is benched for oversleeping his alarm. Blount benefits and explodes for two TDs in his first game back with the Pats. The irony: Blount was released by the Steelers for his off-field issues, then gets a chance to shine because of someone else’s off-field issues. Here’s to you Blount, you opportunist man.

 

Lovie Smith calls out Bucs’ O-Line

“A defense can tee off on you once you can’t run the football,” said Smith. We saw Doug Martin again this week, which shows you how the Bucs are doing. I guess they’re going to have to rely on Josh McCown… to which all Bucs fans are saying:
