rams80 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Massive thank you to the St Louis Rams for what you just did to the Saints.The schedule shaped up for this team to be postseason trolls. I'm glad the Edward Jones Dome continues to be a chamber of horrors for the Saints. Excelsior!

dbadefense1990 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Wasteful Cincinnati tonight condemns them back to the #3 with a looser grasp than they had at the start of the week.Freaking Indy actually still has an outside chance at the #2 and a bye at this point. Gee whiz, what the hell happened to the best teams in the AFC this week?What if I told you that the Ravens can still win the AFC North if they win out? Yeah, a little more motivation for Baltimore's final three games, all because of tonight's stinker in Pittsburgh.There's a lot to try and figure out heading into the matchups of Week 16, but a great deal of that won't be known until the result of tomorrow nights game. The Monday Night game isn't a gem as far as the teams involved, but it does hold a ton of playoff weight, and ESPN will probably be glad about that. Their final game is 4-10 Atlanta vs. 10-4 SF, so that one won't hold nearly as much.Given Seattle's season, the 49ers can only get a home-playoff game as the #5 seed and they play the #6 in the NFC championship. More than likely, ESPN will run a sap-fest of what, in all likelihood, will be San Francisco's final game at Candlestick. Look for their MNF crew to be more reflective than concurrent with the actual game coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Maybe they can, but I have difficulty seeing Cincinnati slipping up at home next week against Minnesota. Criticize Andy Dalton, criticize the play calling (there's a ton of that going around; hey, anyone seen Gio Bernard?), whatever, but the Bengals are 6-0 at home this season and have consistently shown excellent offensive capabilities. Minnesota has played some real tough games against their foes in the last month, but I'm not seeing it being enough next week. I think the East and North see their resolutions in the AFC next week.If Baltimore trips up against Detroit, then their game with New England may well be a must win game. There's legit potential for the AFC to be wrapped up, virtually entirely, come Week 17. This potential does not exist in the NFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Not quite. If my math serves me correctly, the Patriots are still owed one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOVWmxBW56Y Why? That's a penalty. It's hardly New England getting screwed when the player was very clearly doing what the rule very clearly says he can't do. The call was verrrry ticky-tack. Many people thought the entire thing was BS, including myself. But not to worry. The Patiots will be handed their final make-up call this postseason -- one which could possibly vault Brady over Peyton, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't push another player towards the line of scrimmage on a field goal. Additionally, it was a rule change that was requested by the players association.The fact that you're even arguing that a clear violation of a rule being called a penalty somehow screwed the Patriots is astounding to me.

Telemundo219 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 The hate that some people have for the Patriots here is astounding. You would think that they killed some people's families, lol. The whole "the Patriots got a pass Week X, so it's ok they got screwed Week Y" argument seems a bit worthless and nitpicky, imo (if you don't agree, cool). A blown call is a blown call regardless, and there's been aplenty in the NFL this season whether it's benefit your team or their opponent. College sports as we know them are just about dead. The lid is off on all the corruption that taints just about every major program and every decision that the schools or the NCAA make is only about money, money, and more money. We'll have three 16+ team super-conferences sooner rather than later, killing much of the regional flair and traditional rivalries that make college sports unique and showing the door to any school that doesn't bring money to the table in the process. Pretty soon the smaller schools are going to have to consider forming their own sanctioning body to keep the true spirit of college sports alive because the NCAA will only get worse in it's excess from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to come on here after the game and "blah, blah, blah should've been a penalty we got screwed!" is just ridiculous. Yeah, boo-hoo, it hurt your team this game -- you weren't blasting the officials when their blown call helped your team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 How does Jason Garrett still have a job? He is a terrible head coach. I know Romo was horrible at the end but why did Garrett go away from Murray in the 2nd half?I know one thing...football is, above all else, a game of mistakes. The Pokes simply made the key mistake of deciding the second half was the best time to display their best impersonation of the 92 Oilers defense. Or perhaps coach Garrett had no idea what to give Dom Capers for Xmas before deciding that straying from a stupidly effective run game would be just the thing. You know, so the Pack sieve defense could be spared further embarrassment or something.I say this as a Packer fan, Green Bay should have lost this game, furious comeback aside. That's clear to anybody who watched the whole thing. That Dallas didn't so much as force a field goal in the second half, let alone a punt, is a damning indictment on their defense. If they'd forced even one FG in the second half, the Cowboys win. Simple as that. Hell, if Garrett, or Bill Callahan or whoever the hell was calling the offense didn't get the oh so brilliant idea of suddenly ignoring a Peterson-esque rushing effort, Dallas wins. Instead, Matt Flynn looks like he channeled the spirit of Frank Reich, sans snow, and the Pack's playoff hopes remain on life support with #12 likely returning to action next week rather than being shut down. Yes, I know Frank Reich is alive and well.On unrelated notes, I applaud the Dolphins' sabotage of the Patriots. And Jay Cutler...I know Marshall's your guy and all, but PLEASE take a page out of the book of McCown...do not forget about the Alshon. The world needs more Alshon. Hell, the world needs an Alshon Drake Hands video. A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know Frank Reich is alive and well.I don't think Jerry wants to fire Jason Garrett. What if they won their last two games and the Eagles lost to the Bears? They can still win the division at 9-7. Now the question is, what team is the city of Los Angeles backing up now if the Cowboys keep losing? The Raiders have another losing record! The Rams beat the Saints, and Dallas still has a shot despite Romo choking. I thought Green Bay couldn't come back to win! And I also thought that Cincy was going to comeback and beat the Steelers. Boy was I wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
