It's amazing that Brandon Lloyd goes to the Broncos, with Kyle "Neckbeard" Orton as QB and a coach that got fired for losing over like 18 out of 20 games in a row and has better numbers than the whole time he was in Washington. Is there just some performance dampening field over the entire Redskins organization?
Yeah, it is called Daniel Snyder. |

That little cunt deserves every terrible thing that every happens to him and his team. The team (not to mention the world) would be in much better shape if he had been sleeping at Sean Taylor's house a few years ago.

It's been painful to watch the Redskins the past 5 (10?) seasons… …particularly Jason Campbell the last few seasons but McNabb has looked a lot like Jason Campbell in 2010.
Well, at least if you are a Redskins fan — while Steelers are my favorite team, Redskins were always my NFC favorite.
That list above is missing Jason Taylor who didn't play to form in Washington either.
Daniel Snyder may be the NFL equivalent of Donald Sterling.

Amazing is an understatement for Lloyd this year. 63 receptions, 1,185 yards, 9 TDs. A career year for any WR in the league with 3 games to go. They will give comeback player of the year to Vick, but Lloyd has definitely earned a honourable mention. Too bad the Broncos aren't in the discussion for anything else. |

Fuck me, Aaron Rodgers ruled out of the Packers/Pats game. Matt Flynn gets the start in New England in December, after not even being able to score a TD against Detroit. This game is going to be fucking ugly.

Heh, what a freaking meltdown by the Giants.

Spectacular meltdown or some insane production from Vick?

Well thank god the Mangini regime is about to end. At least we know McCoy is not as fragile as first thought in Brownstown. Of course that still makes Holms look stupid for bringing in Delhomme.

I really hope that Jackson's showboating costs the Eagles a game some day, preferably something like the NFC Championship or Super Bowl.

Fuck yeah. I hate the giants with a passion, but that bit of douchebaggery was ridiculous. |

I actually think he was watching the clock to see if all of the time was run off, but ya he is a showboating moron.

That's what he said in some post game comments but unless the stadium or TV broadcast clock was way off the clock hit 00:00 when he crossed the 20 yard line. Edit: also I was thinking as well about his falling backwards into the end zone stunt last week against the Cowboys when I wrote the original post. The running along the goal line thing is more debatable even though it really wasn't necessary to run out the clock (extra points take about 3 to 4 seconds) if that's what he was actually doing. |

LolGiants.  For fuck's sake, the Packers make a game of it after all. I don't put that loss on the QB. That was all about coaching. McCarthy's clock management was shit. He calls timeout two plays in a row instead of coaching up his QB to have a second play called when they come out of a timeout. Flynn obviously panicked on that last play of the game. He had no idea what play to call and there was no way to get the bench to call a play. Fucking shame, because he played about a billion times better than I thought he would. Even worse, McCarthy had done so well most of the game by continually calling on the running game even when it didn't hit big. It isn't out of the realm of possibility for the Pack to make the playoffs, but it's getting harder and harder. They need to win out against two tough defenses (Giants and Bears) and hope the Giants or the Bears completely collapse. The good news is that the Giants proved how fucking schizophrenic they are. That team is so wildly inconsistent, they could easily lose against the Pack. The Skins, though? If the Giants lose to the Skins in the last game of the season, they don't deserve the playoffs. |

I thought Flynn had a hell of a game all things considered. Even if the contrast between him and Brady was night and day, he played well and didn't make many errors. The final drive was a bit of a shambles but overall that was a very watchable game.

Yeah, kudos to Flynn for making that a highly entertaining game. It's probably for the best that they didn't win it, because I could just see all the "OMG THAT'S JUST HOW FAVRE STARTED HIS CAREER!"
LOL Giants.

I agree, mainly because McCarthy would have tried to throw the lights out with Rodgers and completely ignored the running game. At least with Flynn in there, he was forced to think about balance. I only hope he learns the lesson about having a running game that this game proved. But most likely, he'll revert to mini-Martz and forget about the run game altogether, forcing Rodgers to run for his life and get another concussion. |

I remember Flynn from LSU and have always thought he had a lot of potential. Maybe this will be his big breakout.

Rodgers probably would have been fine, except for the caveat Haem mentioned. The NE pass rush was largely absent for most of the night. I just don't know why you wouldn't blitz the hell out of a guy making his first start and they had good success when they did.
Flynn does throw a nice ball and had a good amount of composure out there. Looked like starting material. Well, until the very end, where he looked like a rookie.

Flynn held the ball too long and was bailed out by the young NE defense. He needs another year or three as a backup before he'll be worth a damn as a starter.

That said, GB sure does have a way of cultivating their backup QBs.

He is a Weenie, that is true. That's not why I hate him, though. E.g. I don't hate Aaron Rogers or Jahvid Best (both also Weenies).

Best being drafted by the Lions made me sad, because I was pretty sure he was going to die in his first game. So at least he lived longer than I expected?

I cannot believe I am rooting for the Jets this weekend. If Chicago goes 12-4, then the Eagles don't get a bye if hey go 12-4.

Welp, the Packers are proper fucked. Chicago wins the NFC North. Now the Pack have to win out and pray that the Giants lose to fucking WASHINGTON on the final day. Yes, that's right. My hopes rest with SUPER BOWL QUARTERBACK REX GROSSMAN. I feel sick.  |

If it helps any, I'm trying to work up hope that Carolina or Cleveland can beat Shitsburgh so the Ravens win the division.

I'd rather lobby for relegation for the entire NFC West division to NCAA Division 2 or something.

That entire division lost last week. It's almost surreal. The possibility of a 7-9 champ is becoming a stark reality. Who will get fucked by this? Probably the Pack and the Bucs. Outside chance of the Giants, which would just be a total tear-feast. |

It's disgusting, especially when you look at the other divisions where a 12-4 record is only going to be good enough for a wildcard seat this year. |
