NFL Offseason: Big Money, Big Draft, & Big Ben Follies

[Rhianna]

Come on Rhianna! The Seattle Seahawks are a 2-3 juggernaut!

Hey, we've beaten two teams this year! Both of them are in our horrible division, one is 2-3 and one is... 0-4. THESE ARE ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

[Beefcake]

I hate the NFL overtime rules. Whoever invented them is on my shit list.
:lol: Says the woman whose team was 93-0 (I may be embellishing a bit) under said NFL overtime rules until yesterday! I believe ESPN told us that Pretty Boy Tom had never lost an OT game in NE.

Now, take your lumps, er, lump. :P

What a wonky season. Have there EVER been such division for early, with seven or so distinct upper class teams, and a bevy of bottom feeders who look like they can defeat only each other? The Dems are right - the middle class is DYING!

Seriously, I've never seen so many crap teams in a season! St. Louis, Cleveland, Kansas City, Oakland, Detroit, Tampa Bay, Seattle and Carolina and Jacksonville on certain weeks ... and Miami, Buffalo and Washington perhaps. And what to make of Tenneesee, winless but much better than their performance?

:shuffle: My Colts are four-for-four versus the above crap list. Ergo, jury's still out on whether Indy is as good as its record and stats. Peyton, of course, "is" as good as said data :kickass:. I only wonder about his team. November will tell: After getting the worst of the worst after their bye week -- St Louis -- followed by iffy San Francisco, Indy has a tough November with Denver, New England, and Baltimore.

I need to get some hair color because the Bengals have brought out all my gray and added some. :lol: "Cardiac Cats" is very true.

Great and important win for them.

So true!! These game have been fun, but stressful, to watch! :lol:

So sad about Mike Zimmer's wife, it was nice to see the team rally around him like that. The Bengals are playing with a lot of heart this year- something that's been missing the last couple of years.

This Dolphins-Jets game is :watch:. The Dolphins drive are so fun to watch! Go Fins!

The Ravens should have re-signed Matt Stover. Now he's with the Colts and we just lost a critical game on a blown field goal. :mad:

[HeatherC]

UGH UGH UGH. :wall: The Bengals lose to the Texans today AND they lost Odom (the NFL leader in sacks) to a season ending achilles injury AND they lost two other big defensive guys to other injuries (no word on the severity of those yet). This has seriously been the WORST.SPORTS.WEEKEND.EVER. for me and I am so ready to crawl into a hole for a while. :scream: :slinkaway :yikes: :fragile:

Tennessee is... really quite bad.

Tennessee is... really quite bad.

I am guessing that 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter they were on the sidelines saying "can we just call it now and go in for some hot chocolate and a hot shower?"

then to add insult to injury - the CBS sports center said "the outcome of this game is not in question so we are going to a game that is more competitive"

That kind of made my day and disappointed me since I was enjoying watching the Titans look like they were about to freeze to death.

Geaux Saints!!!

Yes, incredible considering last season they started, what, 11-0.

Collins had a 4.9 quarterback rating! :yikes:

In related news ...

:blah: Belichick = Yep, still classless. 59-0? Up 30-something to zip and Brady is still in the game ... throwing throwing throwing. Not wishing it upon the guy, but it would've been :EVILLE: kharma if Brady (or any other star player who was left in this game into the 4th quarter) were hurt while piling on those stats.

I suppose it'll be more of the same next week versus another winless team, Tampa Bay, in London.

[BigB08822]

I don't think anything is wrong with leaving someone in even if it is a blowout. However, it IS stupid. Why risk injury to your star player? I wouldn't have done that but I don't think it is unfair or anything.

[flyingsit]

I think it's tacky, rude, AND stupid. There was no point to leaving Brady in that game other than to embarrass the Titans even further. Well, and to pad Brady's statistics.

I'm remembering just why I hate Belichick and the Patriots to much... this on top of defensive players getting called for roughing when they barely touch Brady (and him ASKING for the penalties), when other QBs get the crap pounded out of them and no flags. For chrissakes, he's wearing pads too. Yeah, he got hurt the first game last year. It's football. It happens.

[jeffisjeff]

Didn't Brady leave the game during the 3rd quarter?

[HeatherC]

WHO DEY!!!!!!!!!!! :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

I thought it was very nice of the Cardiac Cats (aka, the Cincy Bengals) to give us fans a week off from having a collective stroke at any point during their game today. :P That was was a good old fashioned blowout of the Bears today and the entire team was clicking on all cylinders. It was a great game by everyone (especially Carson and Cedric) and I am one STOKED Bengal fan tonight. Who Dey! :cheer2:
