Have you ever been outside in sub-10 degree weather? And if so, did you try running or holding onto a football? After 10 feet your lungs start to burn, and as soon as you stop everything freezes up. As for the football, it becomes much harded to hold on, much less pass a football when it is rock hard and slippery.

Sorry Gonzo, but you really don't know what you are talking about here.

I'd imagine being from New York , he's probably been in pretty cold weather.

Grossman was an emotional boost. Thats it. Nothing else. He did nothing else.

Yes, I have been in said weather, its been like that for a week here actually. Yes, running in the cold is hard because breathing cold air starts to get painful. Yes, the football gets slippery in the cold, but its not greased down in WD-40. This is all common knowledge so I don't know what you're getting at here. I mean, its easy to assume I've never played football in the cold, and thats why you're wrong here.

I was agreeing with RP, and disagreeing with you in saying that cold weather doesn't affect a QB's performance that bad. But then again, I don't know what I'm talking about.

So do tell, what makes you the authority on the subject? Is there some sort of degree for this?

You don't need a degree, it does effect the game especially passing a lot.

That being said, I didn't see the game, or looked at the stats and have no opinion on Grossman, I'm just commenting on the effects -10 degree weather has on throwing a football.

Also, has it really been -10 for the last week where you live? and is that before or after windchill?

lol, for the last time I never said it doesn't affect the passing game. I said not to an extent that BCWWF implied it does.

Oh, and its been in the single digits in temperature around here. For me when the temperatures that low, whether its negative or not I don't know the difference. Alls I know is its fucking cold. I've played football in the cold, and sure passing the ball is different, but not as bad as some of you are saying. That is all.

I'm rooting for Grossman btw ( Only cause i played against him in high school ), but still i'm rooting for him. Lets not get ahead of ourselves tho. He didnt do anything special that Kyle Orton couldnt do.

I'm pretty sure they said there was a strong crosswind in the stadium all night. Certainly affected the Bears punting in the 1st half. And Grossman made a difference simply by getting the ball out of the pocket with some accuracy, something Orton just didn't do. Not to say he's the 2nd coming of Dan Marino, and I like Orton and what he has done (or rather what he hasn't, i.e. lose games) but as it stands right now based on last night Grossman > Orton.

I didn't watch the game nor was any mention made of crosswinds or anything. My statement was basically just supporting RP and disagreeing with BCWWF.

I don't know, I don't think it matters who the Bears have at QB, there defense wins games.

The cold weather affects a football game in so many ways it's not even funny, and basically everything has to do with the passing.

Have you ever noticed how in cold games both teams turn to running the ball? That's because it makes it harder to throw and catch the ball in the cold. I don't know how you can possibly try to dispute that?

So, where the fuck is Dave Wadding?

Yeah, you know... the guy who took a hissy fit because I said it was possible that SD could beat Indy (given, I didn't think it was very likely) but since the game hadn't been played it was still possible... but that just didn't sit well with Wadding.

That was a great game by SD, it looked like a film of the Patriots beating the Colts last year. The reason I say that is they key to the Pats beating the colts has always been getting to Manning, don't give him too much time and use the blitzes to throw off those timing patterns, make him release the ball before the WR is in position, so he has to either loft it or cut it short, maybe rely on the WR to adjust. It's something the Pats couldn't do against them this year.

I hope Seattle and Indy plays their starters the first half at least, should be a great matchup.

I will admit I'm eating a lot of Seahawk Crow and am very impressed (but still can't feel confident in any team being run by a BC QB... but that's a personal issue.)

He's a physical monster. He played end and OLB at Maryland. Like, he wasn't a "tweener." He's just so good, he played both. Faster than most LB and stronger than a lot of DEs. He can do anything he wants, when he wants, to whomever he wants. Even the greatest QB in NFL history.

He has a light switch tattooed on his arm, and when he fucks someone in the ass like he did to Peyton, he flips the switch on his arm.

LIGHTS OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.

He was drafted after Demarcus Ware I think, because Parcells thought Ware was better suited for the 3-4.

And drafted after Troy Williamson, because you can't coach speed.

I traded for him on Madden... he's not as good on Madden as he fucking should be... yet.

I can't believe anyone hasn't heard of him. I read a quote from someone who said that Merriman is the greatest rookie LB some people have ever seen.

And the funny thing is... as much as I love him... I've never been able to see him play.

LT was the GOAT. I've heard comparisons. You don't think that it's near accurate? At least as far as rookie seasons go?

Maybe if we give Lights Out a bunch of cocaine he can play better.

But imagine him in Dallas under Tuna... the two GOAT LBs under Parcells .

To be fair to Ware though, he has had to learn to be a every down Linebacker this year, where Merriman is more of a situational player that comes in on plays designed for him. I think parcells was going for the guy that he thought was going to make the best full time linebacker. Also, I swear in the Indy game I saw the Colts putting only a Tight End on Merriman, what kind of foolish idea is that.

That said, I would cream myself if Merriman was on the Cowboys on the other side of Ware.

Kevin Burnett will be good though, when he gets healthy.

Also bean, I share your man love for MBIII

Whatever they did, it didnt work. He bullrushed one of our offensive lineman 7 yards in the backfield and sacked Manning. I think it was a backup Olineman, but reguardless. No linebacker should be bull rushing an offensive lineman.

Mine obviously runs deeper. I've been fighting the battle against Lawrence Maroney for a while, now... Barber is the truth. On Madden I just drafted Maroney, and he's 88 with like 96 speed... and after spending a year on Barber he's just NOW 89.
