you blew your 7000th on that reply? maybe you need a closer.
(congrats)
I'll get a mod to delete a few of my pointless ones to knock myself back down
I absolutely agree. Seattle had a lot going against them and still pulled out the win against a team that I think will surprise people this year. Winning those close, tough road games makes you a stronger team at the end of the year, Imo. It gives you the confidence you need if/when you are in the situation again.
Really looking forward to this weeks game. San Fran @ Seattle.
Just saw that Chris Clemons is listed as a starter and we should have Browner back as well. Should be a really good game.
I don't know about Aaron Rodgers, he looks like Tony Romo lately, I don't see the drive that he used to have, KAPS on the other hand is fucking bad ass at the moment.
IF he can do this, then the eagles may become very dangerous. But thats going to be a big if.
They certainly can. Even if the defense can be just half decent this year. Regardless though, Vick is Vick and still makes bad decisions. One thing that drives me nuts is he never reads the defenses blitzes and misses his hot reads 90% of the time.
Any way you look at it, it very refreshing to see a different coach running things. I actually watched Chip Kelly's press conference last night. I was so glad I didn't have to hear an injury report and "times yours".
holy shit man pump the brakes. Romo is like Philip Rivers' long lost cousin, king of choke. Rodgers is a top 3 QB.
No need to thank me, they did it to themselves. Brady needs a decent WR to throw to.
Gronkowski is going to see 20 targets/game when he comes back next week or the following. Probably end up being the single biggest fantasy football performer at any position.
Short of that, they should give Dobson a stickum shower pregame. And I'm not talking gay webmaster style.
Agreed, I thought Kenbrell Thompkins was going to get me some points in fantasy...and he would with all the targets if only he could catch the ball. Hoping Gronk's return makes up for it.
Great play by Cushing ont he pick-6 and Eddie Royal had a hurr-durr drop on a long 3rd down in the 4th. Too early to tell if Rivers will be the Rivers of 08-10 or 11-12. Give McCoy a chance to ride his ass a little (or threaten to) before passing judgement. Norv coddled his ass way too much in the later years.
Houston has a top-5 D and if the refs don't call Cam Thomas for a BS personal foul on the field goal attempt, SD could have very well won and therefore no meltdown. Rivers had a bunch of 4th quarter comebacks of 14+ points back in 2006 when he had to throw and couldn't rely on Tomlinson, so he does have it in him.
Lol, they've lost their two of their best defensive players, if not the best. Dumerville to the Ravens and Von Miller to the living room couch. BTW, Miller has an outstanding warrant in California so he'll likely be missing the away games at Oak and SD. Plus there's a good chance he'll get suspended for a few more by Goodell. Dude could easily miss 10 games this year.
NFL admitted Staley shouldn't have been flagged so no offsetting penalties should have been called.
A truly awful call was in 4th quarter of the HOU-SD game when Cam Thomas (SD NT) gets called for a personal foul for brushing past the "defenseless" long snapper on a field goal attempt. If the long snapper is fucking defenseless, what's to stop teams from trying constant fakes on field goals and punts when you can't pressure up the middle?
Houston got gifted 4 points - they scored a TD on the next play - and only won by 3.
(p.s. couldn't find a vid of the play. But Packers (no D) Seahawks (can't win on the road) and Denver (Manning can't throw in cold weather) won't be doing shit this year except eating giant bags of cocks while wiping away their tears. It will be fun to watch
