Lol he got not one, but TWO 70 yard TD passes that game. Looks like the Packers need to work on their deep coverage lol. Who are their safeties anyway?
 
The Packers dominated the Seahawks last year.
They went down 14-0 because Grant fumbled twice on 3 touches then ended up winning like 40something to 20 I think and Grant had over 200 yards.
It was amazing.



Fuck this season. haha. I called at least 8-8. Hopefully they'll do that.
 
If they are so good how did they allow two different receivers to get 70 yard completions? I know when I played ball if that happened twice in a game you got benched or worse.
 
Actually, technically the NFC North team could enter the playoffs 7-9... but that assumes that Chicago loses to both Detroit and Houston... which more than likely isn't happening. Minnesotta / Green Bay going 7-9 though isn't that farfetched, so if Detroit and Houston pull upsets, we could have a team with a losing record enter the playoffs.

weird.
 
The NFC North winner may end up 8-8, but Arizona could be winning the division at 4-7 right now.
 
New York Giants receiver Plaxico Burress has told the team that he accidentally shot himself Friday night, a league official told ESPN's Sal Paolantonio.
Burress was treated and released from New York Hospital Cornell Medical Center. He was there overnight and was released at 2 p.m. Saturday, the Giants said. A team official told The Associated Press that Burress shot himself in a nightclub.


Seriously, just ban players from going to nightclubs. Period.

No, How do u shoot ure self..
 
No one is entitled to honor Master Mikurage. Honor is something that is granted, so it cannot be demanded (which you are acting as if it was required that he be honored, which is to demand he be honored) because it then ceases to be purely granted. Even once it is granted, an honor is merely something that is based upon the feelings of some amount of people. Sean Taylor, of course, did not deserve to die as he did, but I do not belive that a person deserves honor for dying (and Sean Taylor being ushered in the way that he has been is abnormal - it is becaues of his death). Death deserves no honor; we are born arbitrarily and we die arbitrarily, and neither deserves any special honor based on an individual case - in this case, a rich football player who had been highly petulant and had learned to be slightly less petulant whose death exacerbated his life far beyond its actual noteworthiness.
 
Regardless of whatever Samurai honor nonsense is going on in this topic, it's pretty cool that the Redskins did this.


On another note, Romo for MVP imo.
 
Well, I know this is completely off-topic, but here's this;
The one thing that annoys me more then bandwagoners are anti-bandwagoners(I'm not being hypocritical, Just listen..)

Here's an example of a anti-bandwagoner, people that get on my nerves a lot..

"Oh, the Titans are 11-1, I guess I wont like them because they're practically undefeated and I'll like a shitty team like the 0-12 Lions so i'll show how much I hate bandwagoning"
 
EvilBob, if you are going to attempt to shallowly dismiss something, then at least use a term that makes sense. My logic is closer to Egyptian in logic of the approach to death, minus the celebration.

Mikurage, I am pretty sure all anti-bandwagoners pick a team that is an underdog with a chance of actually winning...(like last year's Giants)

but he is not even as valuable to his team than a different qb in that same division. i am of course talking about eli lol. eli manning is definitely the key to the giants and they have proven time and time again that they can win without receivers or brandon jacobs or any guy who take off that team, EXCEPT eli! he definitely deserves mvp for this year
 
The only reason Eli could be in consideration for MVP is because they can't give it to the entire o-line. Eli shouldn't be any more of a candidate than Kerry Collins.
 
I'm still going with Tony Romo for MVP though if Dallas makes Wild Card. He's been really damn good while on the field this season.

even the rookie matt ryan is better than eli

Actually, Eli is just slightly better in passer rating (a far more important stat than yards, which Ryan leads in by just 1 yard). Ryan also has 6 less touchdown passes than Eli, and IIRC Eli has more rushing touchdowns. Even so, neither should be up for MVP. IF the MVP goes to a QB, it should go to Kurt Warner, or, should the Saints make the playoffs, Drew Brees. Romo would definitely be a better choice than Eli, but he missed too many games to be up for serious consideration in any case. I do think that Storm FTW has an absolutely unwarranted bias against Eli, because as far as I'm concerned, Eli is the 7th best quarterback in the NFL. Also, his team is arguably the best in the NFL this year, and they won the Super Bowl last year, so it's not like he's a Philip Rivers (outstanding stats, terrible record).
 
If it were any RB, it would have to be Peterson or Portis. Turner is good but those 2 really put their respective team on their backs at times, especially AP. Jones is statistically worse than the 3 I mentioned, and Favre is a much better quarterback than Frerotte, Campbell, or Ryan.
 
I'd take Campbell over Favre this year, he's done a great job protecting the ball.

I wouldn't quite throw Jones out of the MVP race concerning RBs, in fact I'd peg him at #2 below Portis. AP has the advantage in raw yards (due to attempts more so than a big gap in YPC) but working against him are his four fumbles, three lost, and his complete inability to pass block. Portis and Jones both hold onto the ball better and are bigger receiving threats. Portis is also one of the best blocking RBs in the league and Jones, while he lacks the raw yards of the other two, is well ahead in the TD department. Unfortunately for Portis, his injury might be bad enough for him to start missing games where Peterson and Jones are perfectly healthy right now.

As for Romo, he only missed three games. He has: the highest passer rating in the NFL, highest YPA, second-best TD:INT behind Garcia, and is one of the least sacked QBs in the NFL due to his amazing elusiveness. I think there's a strong argument to put him above even Brees/Warner, whose best argument is simply that they were healthy for every game so far. :/ (They're the only two above Romo in YPG, with six more att/g and lower YPA. Warner also has fumble-itis.) His "value to the team" was even proven by the offense falling apart when he sat for Bad Johnson and Brooks Lollinger.
