leedsunited Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Well, the fight for those Wild Card spots in the NFC will be very interesting. The Giants, unless they really mess up, will probably get one. For the other, though, Detroit is in the lead at 6-5. There ar then 6 5-6 teams, the Bears, Vikings, Eagles, Redskins, Saints, and Cardinals. The Lions' fate is in their own hands, but their remaining schedule is really hard. They have the Cowboys and Chiefs at home, and Packers, Chargers, and Vikings on the road. Their only hopes of winning enough of their remaining games to make the playoffs is for somebody on defense, other than Ernie Sims, to learn how to tackle. The interception on the last drive of the Giants game was huge, and just may end up to be the difference if the Lions don't make the playoffs. It is going to be really interesting these last 5 weeks.And this is what's monumentally boring about the NFL gameplay this year. Aside from the absolute dominance of the Patriots, and a few second-tier teams like the Colts, Steelers and Cowboys, there seems to be nothing else worth noting. At all. All of those 6-5 and 5-6 teams are completely uninspiring and just playoff-spot fodder. You say interesting? I wouldn't blink if any of those teams made the cut or didn't. Frankly, none seem all that deserving anyway and are largely flawed in some way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigga Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 If your opponent's honest best fails to stop them, perhaps some restraint is in order from the Patriots on offense, since their opponent is trying its hardest to avoid humiliation.Dude, I get you don't like the Pats. I get that you still may be bitter over Super Bowl XXXVI. Hell, I even get that you find these Boston homers to be insufferable. But that is laughable. Seriously, for the love of all that is right and good, stop. Please. Just stop.Besides, you sound like such a whiny, tree-hugging, "can't we all just get along" liberal.

Sguse1 Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I thought AJ Feely looked quite good in the Sunday Night game. He look very crisp with his passes and overcame his mistakes well. My hopes now look toward a possible trade for Donovan Mcnabb, unless Tarvaris keeps playing like he has been the past two games. I really think if Adrian can make a healthy recovery and Tarvaris plays mistake free football the Minnesota Vikings could be looking at a possible playoff run. And then my hopes come true and we draft James Hardy in the 2008 draft. Mark my words 2008 Vikings- 12-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winghaz Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I didn't play high school football because my hometown was too small for even 9-man high school football. So I can't properly analyze football the way I can basketball or baseball.That in mind, can someone who is unbiased tell me about the Vikings-Giants game and how much of it was caused by the Vikes' defense looking great and how much was caused by Manning looking crappy?

This is the same Viking defence that were blown out by the Packers. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for setting the game of football back 6+ decades, Miami and Pittsburgh.EDIT: 3-0 Pittsburgh. 17 seconds left. Burn this games' tape, now!

(Boomp boomp...boomp boomp-boomp boomp...)You know...sometimes slosh-fests can be fun to watch. But then...when no points are scored, I guess people have a point about this game setting football back a couple years, or decades, depending uupon your view of perspective. I'm following this game on GameCast, since that same rainstorm, thunder and lightning that hit Pittsburgh earlier is the same rain, thunder and lightning that delayed me out of my native Pensacola, the same rain and thunder and lightning that CURRENTLY HAS ME STRANDED IN ATLANTA'S AIRPORT. Can anyone guess where I'm tryna get to tonight, if I ever get there? PITTSBURGH. Ain't that a pickle?It looks to be 4th & goal on the MIA 4-yd line? Oh, lookie--POINTS!!!And with that, this sloshfest is over. Welcome to 0-11, Miami Dolphans.
