TFoA Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Well that only means one thing, St. Louis won today......wait they beat San Diego?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKm5xQyD2vEOf course, they're probably gonna turn on the switch pretty soon. But come on, this whole thing of starting seasons off slow is getting ridiculous now.Ew @ the Falcons today, though. I'm cool with 4-2 at this point, however. Could be worse.

Cujo Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 The Jets just played a god awful game, full of turnovers, bad penalties, and last year's version of Mark Sanchez -- Yet Gang Green still come out of Mile High with a win. These are NOT your "Same old Jets". Usually they lose this game. 5-1 headed into the bye. Best team in the league. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEW.ERA Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Jerry Jones doesn't have the balls to take the whole coaching staff out back and fire.I don't find Jason Garrett that great of a coach either.

The_Admiral Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 How many NFL games a week are ruined by the officials?As many as they play per week, probably.Football has too many rules and I'm not convinced that anyone ever really has a clue what the hell is going on, players, coaches, officials, and fans alike. You just sort of roll with whatever's going on around you. Every now and then in baseball you'll get a little spat or quibble over strike zone elasticity or the infield fly rule, but it's as if you can't catch a touchdown in the NFL without precipitating some sort of nationwide Talmudic conference over the vagaries of "a football process" or some crap. I guess this is why the NFL is indisputably the bestest league in the whole wide world and dissenting opinions are not allowed without express written consent of the National Football League. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 'Bout damn time the Vikes did something. Favre was going nuts after the game before he headed back through the tunnel.

gingerbreadmann Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I'll be that guy: I like Brett Favre. I try really, really hard not to like him, but I do. I like the way he plays tough and even though you can tell he is hurting badly, he jumps right up and gives it his all on the next play. I like the way he gets super-enthusiastic about every big play his team makes, even if he isn't involved, and how he shows how totally pissed off he is when he makes a bad play. I like the way he makes it obvious how much he cares about his team and about winning. Yes, he's a drama queen; yes, he has embarrassed himself quite a few times off the field; and yes, the media is essentially his bitch. But given all that, when I see him play football, I can't dislike him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninersdd Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 My Niners won! Especially against the Raiders, finally they did it! The sked the rest of the way SEEMS easy:(@CAR, vs DEN, vs STL, vs TB, @ARZ, @GB, vs SEA, @SD, @STL, vs ARZ). Maybe we can get the division after all. Also, the Chargers played the end of the game without their top 4 receivers from last year(Gates, Jackson, Naanee, and Floyd). With that said, they should be embarrassed going 0-4 on the road so far(against Seattle, KC, Oakland, and the Rams).

Look at Miles Austin's "push-off" that called back a touchdown and his "unsportsmen like conduct" penalty for merely jumping over Roy Williams after Williams scored a touchdown. And for that last one, no one was even able to explain why that was a penalty. Two of those calls changed the game, and if they weren't called, Cowboys would have won today. But, apparently you can't really do anything without being penalized in the No-Fun-League.

BBTV Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Lost in all of this, Kevin Kolb showed yesterday why the Eagles were confident enough in him to get rid of McNabb and turn the franchise over to him. While he certainly has ways to go, and hasn't really accomplished anything yet, it is clear that all the negativity after his bad half against Green Bay was ridiculous - as was his benching. My fear now is that Andy Reid, the most stubborn / arrogant / "I'm smarter than you" head coach since Mike Martz will come up with some way to use two QBs. I'd rather him use the wrong one than use both, but something tells me he's going to start Vick, but give Kolb a series here and there - or worse, trade them in and out on the same series.
