We did lose, you did win. I'm not making excuses, but theres always reasons why a certain team wins and the other loses. Kudos to your team.

It surely comes down to that, but with the parity in the NFL these days it just isn't justified to say "Well this team won because they got more points."

It doesn't really tell the story.

Hester's family just needed money in general, not really anything relating to Katrina so he boucnedddd from the U. He would have been real sick this year there too, since Larry Coker was planning on installing a whole bunch of plays for him on offense and using him at like a Ted Ginn/Reggie Bush level.

I'm surprised he is a defensive back on the roster, I figured they'd have him as a wide out and let him develop there (and let him return kicks while he does, obviously) You gonna tell me you can't put this guy in for like 10 plays a game and throw him a screen or two?

Minus the turnovers, we looked really good for a second week without "Hollywood" Joe Horn.. Shame about that last drive though.. Copper had a great game until then..

The double reverse to Bush for the TD made me cream my pants alittle..

As I said in like week 3, Marques Colston is the motherfucking truth..

That direct snap was crazy as fuck.. Haslett used to use the direct RB snap but it was always Brooks walking away to the sideline with his arms up like there was confusion..

I want to have Drew Brees' children..

Deuce is still the most underrated RB in the league..

We hurt like 3 of the Steelers D-Backs including Polamalu..

We got the Bengals next week.. Gonna be another wild game, I suspect..

DON'T TURN THE FUCKING BALL OVER!!1!


I love Sean Peyton..

Who Dat??

:'(

haha Diesel

BALLLLLLLLIN

I agree. Deuce is a damn good back, he doesn't get the credit he deserves. I had the same feelings about Tiki for a while and to a certain extent still do because he doesn't get mentioned a lot of times when talking about the great backs in the league. I could be wrong about that though, since I don't really pay attention to a lot of the sports media (especially ESPN) because its usually garbage.

Anyways...

I was kind of pissed to see the Saints lose to the Steelers, but on the other hand I'm kind of glad since it goes hand in hand with the Giants losing. I'm just thinking for seeds when the playoffs come, provided the Giants don't play like last night for the rest of the year.

If the Giants have to go to the Superdome in the playoffs after that farce of a 'home' game for New Orleans last season, that would be tremendous.

Probably not for Giants fans though.

Deuce McAllister is definately not the most underrated RB in the league. There are a few things wrong with that statement. First off, he's not Warrick Dunn. Second, he hasn't had a really good year since 2003 and being hurt all the time doesn't make him underrated. Third, Deuce has a HUGE contract. Something in the $50 mil range I thought. He's good but he definately doesn't qualify as underrated.

He had a pretty good year in 2004, 1074 yards at 4 yards a pop. I'll agree with 2003 being a ridiculous season tho, over 1,600 yards rushing 500+ yards receving...damn

I guess the whole "underrated" thing goes hand in hand with us sucking until this year..

If the Saints wanted Warrick Dunn, we'd just start Michael "Beerman" Lewis at RB..

p.s. Brunell got benched for Jason Campbell.. He was a stud at Auburn..

ah man, Joe Gibbs was married to Brunell I was hoping he'd start the entire season. Redskins season is over anyway though :cool:

Jason Campbell could "Phillip Rivers-it" though

For one year...

Just throwing my Super Bowl prediction out there:

AFC: Ravens
NFC: Seattle

Ravens 24
Seattle 17

Feel free to comment, or rip me, whatever

Plus he had Ronnie Brown and Cadillac Williams but that's neither here nor there..

To be honest I don't think the Bears are at that level. This isn't because I'm bitter or anything but I noticed something in the opening of the game Sunday night:

If a team with a good ability to pressure the QB plays the Bears, I think they're toast. The whole offense was inept (Bears) in the early going against the Giants. We were sending blitzes, getting some nice pressure etc. Why we stopped this through the course of the game is beyond me (the coaching sometimes makes me mad) but I just don't think the offense is good enough to battle through that. Obviously if you pressure any QB they're going to play worse, but some teams are better than others at blitzing and getting to the QB, which I believe will be their downfall.

Go Colts

Just throwing an opinion out there:

AFC

The Colts regular season is never the issue, the colts in the big game is always the issue, and that defense which can't stop the run

New England is good, but no longer unbeatable

If San Diego wants any chance of going deep in the playoffs, they damn well better win this week against Denver. They'll need the home game, but they're one of the teams that I think could beat Indy. I'd worry about Rivers on the road in a big playoff game

Denver is also very good and very good defensively, but I don't want Plummer anywhere near a key situation in a playoff game, if they wanna go deep in the playoffs, they also need this game

Baltimore has a great defense and has the DB's to play most WR's man to man. McAllister is great and Rolle is no slouch. Plus Ray Ray and Ed Reed. And with McNair, the offense will be ok so long as they can do just enough to get say 20-25 points on the board they'll be tough to beat

That leaves one spot for Jacksonville/jets/ Kansas City, I think any of the three can be competitive, but will get beaten in the first round

You should work for CBS

I like how everyone is flipping out about how the Pats are all done since they just lost 2 games back to back for the first time in 4 years.

They are still going to win the AFC East and probably get knocked out in the 2nd round. Atleast thats my feeling right now.

Yeah word. I always told people as long as Jason Campbell was playing QB at Auburn we would win. It was not true.

Not to mention when they played the Colts they were in it despite 4 INT's and a fumble. Didn't watch the Jets game.

:lol:

And by future it means, jail sentence

I honestly don't feel the fun in the NFL anymore. I'm probably just going to stick to watching the Cowboys and college football next year.

Patriots replaced the natural grass at Gillette with Fieldturf this week, gay

WTF

It's been like, the most mixed up, entertaining season in a long time..

Not just saying that because the Saints are good either..

Oh yeah that Leon Washington thing, he claims he was throwing up "E's" for East Jacksonville

Anyone? On any... given... Sunday...?
