The Saints suck, so I don't care anymore.


Carry on... :)

The Bolts suck without Merriman, but I still have hope. Norv has been great with the offense this year, special teams has been good, and now that Rivera is DC I think we might just have a shot at something. Oh, it helps to be in the worst division in football. :)

I think we surprise the Steelers tomorrow. 27-24 Bolts

Cowgirls at Washington, Tony is back, Washington won here, and Jim Zorn is looking good as a head coach, but Jerry is in charge and coaches don't matter, its the owner and general manager.

hate to see washington win, so I will hope for a very fluky game

Cowgirls 37
Deadskins 36

True 'dat about being in the worst division in football. I'm thinking me and Seditious could put up 30 points on my Broncos sieve of a D....

and they lead the division...just comical...:jo

Strange game. Pitt deserved the win though.

Denver stepped up today, the Bolts didn't.

My two favorite NFL words... COLTS WIN!

3 in a row...and Peyton is looking Pro Bowl good. (ie, his usual self)

Our Defense has to continue to step it up...come back soon Bob Sanders!

But we have studs at both wideouts and tight end, and the tandem of Addai and Rhodes are gonna keep any Defense honest!

:cool: :dude

Oh...and the G-Men prevailed...what a ground game!
They are the only team right now that can send that 10-0 Tennessee team
to the showers.
But, those Titans still look GOOD.

Saints back to .500 again, which means we lose on MNF next week to the Pack. [we have not won two in a row all year]

I think not.

Are you going to sit here and mention the Cowgirls running game after what the Giants did to the #1 ranked run-stop defense yesterday. Jacobs put up 70 yards in the first 1/2 before being taken out. We slapped up their defense like a red-headed stepchild and you come in here and talk about the low life stinking cowgirls.

You betta rekognize!

the cowboys would not have won with out Marion the Barbarian, seemed to be the only offense they had in the 4th quarter, they would have been hurting if he did not get that last first down. Really interesting that was a regular game for Emmitt Smith, 25 carries and 100 yards or more, now its the exception rather than the rule,

you are right the giants embarrased the Cowgirls a couple weeks ago. So far the giants are looking like they will repeat in the superbowl :banana

was watching that game, it replaced the chicago green bay game, they stopped showing it when the overtime started, so did not get to see the overtime,

really pisses me off how they don't show the over times especially when its 10 minutes straight of commercials, and say they are following NFL rules. done that a couple times with the over times. :mad:

I think the Giants have a great set of running backs, and probably the best O Line in the league.

As far as single running backs...if I'm building the Team, Marion Barber is my first player.

No other cowboys make the list.

Craig Walker
11-17-2008, 07:57 AM
Barber was a beast on that last drive.

TNJ
11-17-2008, 08:28 AM
I think Marion and Brandon have to share the podium...could you imagine them in the same backfield???? :eek:

They are BOTH BADASS...

Damn...one is just power personnified, leaving bodies in his wake, and the other is a ferocious beast off the chain...leaving bodies in his wake! :D

I'd take 'em both...dont make me choose!

Hot damn, the Colt's are finally putting a win streak together. The offense is starting to click and Harrison looked pretty good. Maybe we'll have better luck if we peak at the end of the season rather than the way we usually peak early and fade late.

Awesome officiating on that Steeler/Chargers game, huh?

13 penalties for 115 yards against the Steelers

1 penalty for 5 yards against the Chargers while James Harrison was being tackled all day long.

Oh, and that call at the end of the game that negated Polamalu's TD was a 65 million dollar swing....in favor of Vegas.

This game, many other bizarre calls/no-calls and Goodell's cronyism with all things Patriot have ensured I will never drop another dollar on NFL merch...done..thanks.

I heard on the Radio this morning that the bookies made out to the tune of 42 million on the bogus call that cost the Steelers the touchdown at the end of the game. With all the obviously bad and strange calls this year, I was wondering if the NFL was rigged. I know if I was a Steeler fan I would believe it. 13 penalties to 1? Then the call at the end?

I'm a fan based on the thought that the NFL at least attempts to be legit, but mistakes happen. If it's rigged, I can't support it. Thoughts?

TNJ

I wouldnt look too deeply into the con scheme.
It's more about inept officiating, made worse by the fact that they are now in the crosshairs of technology, IMO.

I think the best running back in the league has to be Adrian Peterson, followed by Jacobs. Colts are finally putting it together. I'm really excited for next sunday, Peyton has always had trouble with the chargers so it should be a good game. But I hope its a huge blowout. 70-0 in favor of the colts. About the officiating it seems awfully ridiculous at times, I remember when the patriots had not had one single penalty called on them for almost 2 games or something like that, they played a team where I think there were 9 penalties called against the other team, and zero on the pats. Wish I could remember who it was they played.

Full scale rigging of games? Nah, I don't think so...but I'm not naive enough to think that there aren't a couple guys here and there.

John Hurtt
11-17-2008, 02:54 PM
Oh, and best running back? I'm thinking my Broncos would be happy to have one last more than a couple games.....I think they are on starter #6 or #7, everyone keeps getting hurt.

Yet another game where the officiating is disgraceful this year. At least that bad call didn't actually change the outcome of the game. I'd love to see the commissioner respond in some way, though - it's gotten that bad.

It's very hard to call a "best" running back, so much comes into play, the O-line has to open holes, and the defense he is running against comes into play.
The Giants have a unique formula this year that is working very well against some VERY tough defenses. I love watching Jacobs, how couldn't you as a football fan?

That call might cost me my matchup this in Yahoo FF! I still don't understand fully what happened to make them call it back. I watch it happen then hear the ref say the penalty is declined and that it is a TD. Then I check later and find out it ended up being taken away???:FM

I love watching the Giants O line even more....absolutely world class.

Yeah, especially after that NBA officiating scandal came to light. Its really fishy that they went to such great lengths to reverse a call that was absolutely meaningless except to the gambling industry. The NFL would be smart to quietly investigate the hell out of the officials involved.

better watch out, they call me a conspirsasy theorist every time I saw that things are in the NFL, but that was a horrid officiated game, looked like the refs were trying to keep SD from losing or covering.

OK, I'll join the G-Men bandwagon. My major complaint about the NFL (beyond instant replay which is a travesty) is the pass happy nature of the game. Coaches of the NFL, first and goal is a running down. Second and goal is a running down. Third and goal is a running down. Fourth and goal, kick the godd*mn field goal. Get it??? Also, you do not need to pass the ball 52 times per game. Run the damn football, am I clear???:BITCH

Thus, the G-Men satisfy my need to see dominant line play and a running game. God Bless the G-Men. That's all.

It's amazing what time and a different team does to a player. When Kerry Collins was on the Giants, he had a suspect O -Line and ALWAYS had the deer in the headlights look. I think every Giant fan was happy to see him say Buh-bye. Now he's on the undefeated Titans.


Go Big Blue!!!!!
