Lauren Draper-Wood delves into the Twittersphere to bring you some of the most memorable NFL tweets of the last seven days.
Coach Kub is a great man & always handles himself with class. Grateful for him giving me an opportunity 3 years ago. Wishing him the best.

TEXANS 20-27 JAGS: After crashing to defeat against the 4-9 Jags, the inevitable happened for Texans head coach Gary Kubiak as he was relieved from his position. JJ Watt’s tweet echoed the sentiments of Texans players and fans alike.
Big shoutout and props 2 our defense they played there butts off tell me @NewEra_54 & @Geraldini93 aren’t the best at there position #bucs — Donald Penn (@DPENN70) December 9, 2013
BILLS 6-27 BUCCS: A fine defensive display led by Gerald McCoy saw the Buccs limit the Bill to just 6 points. With 2 interceptions and a sack Lavonte David (@NewEra_54) is more than deserving of the praise heaped upon him by Donald Penn.
No need to panic, last I checked we still lead the division and there’s 3 regular season games left.It’s all about the next game.#EnoughSaid — Stephen Tulloch (@stephentulloch) December 9, 2013

RAIDERS 27-37 JETS: Frustration surrounds all things Raiders at present but a win against the Jets would’ve eased tension all be it temporarily. Without doubt more is needed from the Raiders and an apology from DE Lamaar Houston isn’t going to paper over any cracks.
Prayers up to my dog @Mathieu_Era ! Minor setback for a major comeback — Tony Jefferson (@tonyjefferson1) December 9, 2013
RAMS 10-30 CARDINALS: It was a weekend of ACL injuries; one of those hit with a long layoff was Cards safety Tyrann Mathieu. Arguably a rookie of the year candidate, he’ll be a big loss, but as fellow Cards safety Tony Jefferson suggest, this is not the end of the road for the young man by any means.
Let’s keep the fire boys. Turn up the temperature and shut the door!!! #WhoDat

PANTHERS 13-31 SAINTS: Back inside their dome the Saints bounced back from the Seahawks massacre and burnt Panthers hopes of a victory over their division rivals.
Wow talking about bad officiating & the worst fan base I’ve ever experience! They threw snow balls the entire 4q like lil kids. Smh — Adrian Peterson (@AdrianPeterson) December 8, 2013
VIKINGS 26-29 RAVENS: Injured Vikings running back Adrian Peterson took to Twitter to air his views on Ravens supporters and officiating staff at Baltimore. Not a fan of the snow then AP?
