NFL 2011

[JWIV]

It is not for you, we get it.

A fool and his money, buyer beware, etc.

In other news, Pittsburgh is playing like hell on TNF.

I have no idea how the hell Big Jen came back and played on that fucking ankle. 

[Tannhauser]

My picks for today:

Bal over Indy
Atl over Carolina-Atl needs a win and they know the Panthers well.
Houston over Cincy-Houston's a well-coached team and I think Cincy is fading in the stretch.
Detroit over Minnesota-I think, hope and pray the Lions have gotten their act together and stop being fools. No Adrian Peterson also.
TB over Jags-TB's QB is back, that's all I got, don't follow these teams much.
Fins over Philly-The Fins are playing so well right now and I don't have any confidence in the Eagles.
Jets over KC-Both teams are mediocre at best, but the Jets defense is good.

Titans over NO-Upset special!  Saints having to play outside and the Titans have to win to stay in the wild card spot.  I look for the  Titans to try to run Chris Johnson 30 times and control the ball.

NE over Washington
SF over Arizona
Denver over Chicago-The Bears offense is mighty suspect and the Broncos are led by a higher power. 
GB over Oakland
Bolts over Buffalo-Norv Turner is horrible, but SD needs a win and play well in December.
Dallas over NY-Hard to pick, both teams are inconsistent.  I do think Dallas wants it more.

Mang, today was the first time in a couple months that I chose Miami to win in the Pick 'Em league. Doh, figures.

[Nevermore]

Oh hey, it's another last minute flurry of scoring to push the game into overtime, including a last second 59 yard field goal! 

I wonder what the record is for overtime games played in a season by one team?

[Paelos]

Tebow! TEBOW! TEBOW!

[Evildrider]

Tebow! TEBOW! TEBOW!

That was an amazing last 3 minutes.  lol.  I don't even watch football much anymore, but I'm gettin Tebow fever.

[Abagadro]

My grandma could throw check downs against that 4th quarter defense which was one of the softest prevents I've ever seen.  Marion Barber single-handedly lost that game, Tebow didn't win it.

Absolutely the Bears lost it. Still, the Defense for the Broncos is absolutely awesome.

[ghost]

The Tebow thing is getting ridiculous.

[Fordel]

Someone put Barber on suicide watch.


The Tebow thing is fucking glorious, I can't wait till he wins the Superbowl in the 4th with no time on the clock with a drop kick. 

[01101010]

WTF San Fran?

[Paelos]

The Tebow thing is getting ridiculous.

If by ridiculous you mean mind meltingly awesome! 

[Ingmar]

WTF San Fran?

Cardinals have been good lately and they took the Niners right out of their game plan. 37 pass attempts for Smith vs. 10 rushing attempts for Gore is not good 49ers math.

Also the officials fucked them out of a TD again.

[Abagadro]

And their receivers seem to have forgotten how to catch a pass.

I want to throttle Rob Ryan and his shitty Defensive strategy.

[Rasix]

 

[Nebu]

I want to throttle Rob Ryan and his shitty Defensive strategy.

I think his strategy was ok, it's the execution that was shitty.  That and Eli handled pressure better than usual.

[Paelos]

Jason Pierre Paul is a freaking beast. Good lord.

Now it comes down to a game in NY. God, this is going to be a terrible divisional finish.

Really, it was my magical hexing powers. You can ask Fordel, he saw me doing it in IRC.  

[Fordel]

It's true, her hate was tangible! She mailed a solid brick of hate to Dallas.

[Sjofn]

And they feasted upon it.

[Nevermore]

Jason Pierre Paul is a freaking beast. Good lord.

Just imagine when he really gets settled into the game.  He didn't even start playing football until his senior year of high school and he only had one year of I-A football.  He was definitely a bright spot for South Florida that year. The guy's athleticism is way off the charts.  6' 5" and 270 and he can do 20+ backflips in a row in full pads.  How many other defensive linemen can do that?

[Paelos]

Might want to gameplan better for that guy when we get to New York, Jason. Hmmm?  

Honestly, I don't think either defense is going to like the tape on this game. There were some hilarious fuckups in the secondary on both sides on multiple occasions.

[Zetleft]

But we still lost that game.  Horrible.

[Ozzu]

This Cowboys season has just been one kick in the balls after another. 

[DLRiley]

TeBOW!!!!! 

[Paelos]

But we still lost that game.  Horrible.

Giants are 3-0 at Jerryworld. I blame the new digs.

[shiznitz]

I just saw a piece on Bloomberg TV about how CBS and Fox are now arguing about who gets to televise games in which the Broncos plays AFC teams.  Hilarious.

That said, I made an effort to tune in to the 2H (figuring the 1H didn't matter) and I was rewarded with a great ending.  Yes, Barber deserves to be jeered, but Chicago's 1H effort was pathetic.  Tebow was 0-11 on passing, for God's sake!    That fumble was all Denver, though.  Great strip.

Marion Barber lost it TWICE. TWICE. That takes TALENT.

Why?  It must be hell to sell advertising for Bronco games since there's no reason to bother watching them until the last 5 minutes or so.   

[JWIV]

So, who had Todd Haley as the first to go?

[Nevermore]

They would have lost because the correct answer was Jack Del Rio.

[MuffinMan]

That reminds me of the last two weeks before this one where at the last 3 minutes of the game I was watching and interested in they say "let's switch over to a more competitive game" and switched it to the Broncos.
