NFL Week 17

Last week of the regular season. Watching the Jags-Chiefs, I am not so sure that David Garrard has sewn up the job the way many people thought earlier this season. Lefwich may not be going anywhere just yet.

I have the same opinion. I don't particularly like the Jags or Chiefs, but watching Gerrard and I can't imagine the Jaguars coming back, unless the Chiefs can't stop the run.

Chiefs winning, Bengals losing, Titans losing ... I'm beginning to believe in miracles. If this keeps up and San Francisco doesn't go all out to beat the Broncos, the entire team will be hunted by Chiefs fans until they are all rounded up and flogged.

I can't believe how bad its gotten for the Cowboys and Giants. Yes, I know that the Giants won last night, but take Tiki Barber away from that team, and they are 4-12 or 3-13. The Cowboys are even more surprising as I felt they had more talent then how they are playing.

Ty Law just picked off a bubble screen pass that was quite impressive. That's supposed to be a fairly safe type of pass. I think it was borderline on whether it was a forward pass or a lateral. He takes it down to the goal line and LJ pounds it in.

Looks like the Chiefs are going to give LJ the carries to break Jamal Anderson's record.

And the Jaguars are getting ready to replace Garrard. Don't know if this is bad or good.

Answer: Bad, because Gray comes in and rolls the Jags down to a quick TD. Ugh.

What a bold move by Del Rio either way... with the playoffs on the line. I think that Leftwich is the QB for them either way, but I think Gerrard's tag as "best backup QB" took a hit with his performance today...

The Bengals won't even have to worry about the results of the other games. They will not win this one. I've never seen a team play so... lethargically, when the end of their season is on the line.

You have your biggest rivals at home, and can't even LOOK like youre TRYING to win?

What I wouldn't give to talk to the team right now and tell them how weak they are.

Sweet fancy Moses ... Gus Johnson and Steve Tasker are getting ready to put Quinn Gray on Mount Rushmore. Granted, all he's done in (part) of the third quarter is go 7 of 9 for 100 yards and run twice for 26 yards and 2 TDs.

Trent Green got knocked out, Huard came in engineered a TD drive. Green is now back in.

35-24, four TDs in the third quarter. What a game.

Crap. That Chiefs take two torpedos almost simultaneously ... Green throws a pick and Carson Palmer throws a long TD pass after the Steelers fumbled inside the Bengals 10 yard line.

Also, I have my doubts as to whether the Lions will need to draft a WR with Mike Furrey sucking up anything within ten yards of the line of scrimmage. He gets about as many receptions as a runningback gets carries.

Ah, who am I kidding. Calvin Johnson does need a home.

For those not stuck in the UK without any TV coverage, did Dallas really just march 80 yards in 2 great plays or are the Lions tanking to avoid losing the first overall pick?

EDIT - never mind then Interesting what a Detroit win does to the draft - at number 2 the best value is almost certainly going to be Calvin Johnson

I can't imagine the Patriots blowing a 10-point lead with 4 minutes to play, so I'm putting my faith in the hands of Alex Smith and Frank Gore. Come on Niners!

S.F. going for it on 4th down this early when neither team has moved the ball? Bad sign for K.C.

I'm very happy that the Eagles have clinched the NFC East, but I'm sad that they are removing starters so early in the game when I have a few Eagles on 2 different Fantasy Football Teams that are playing in Championship Games. One of them is a money league where I stand to win a substantial amount of money if my team wins.

Any league that has championship game in week 17 are questionable IMO

I'm not a fan of it, but both leagues are with solid guys. I've argued against it in the money league strongly, but have gotten drowned out each time. That being said, it is a league with colleagues only, and I know more about football than most of them it seems, or I'm very lucky. I've won 1st or 2nd place money each of the last 4 years and have only lost money 1 year. So, I can't complain too much.
