Week 13 in the NFL

[tucker rocky]

I apparently don't see one, so here it is.

Many interesting match-ups today, with GB/Philly as the biggest one.

[Crapshoot]

Let me state again that Mike Vick is amazing- DL never look so foolish.

[Ben E Lou]

That spin move was classic.

[Crapshoot]

That spin move was classic.

aye- its just every time the D line thinks its collapsed the pocket around him- he's gone. I mean, how on earth are you supposed to defend that- add an extra lineman ?

[Crapshoot]

And then he does something like that- ugh.

[Ben E Lou]

Dadgum I hate that call. 1st and goal with T.J. running over people on the last play, and a pass??? :confused: Tipped and intercepted.

[korme]

Dadgum Shayne Graham misses a 53 yarder for the tie!

[Dutch]

As long as Vick keeps throwing into triple coverage, he can make the DL look as stupid as he wants. :D

[korme]

As rule of thumb, anything bad that happens to your team today must start out in your post with "Dadgum"

[korme]

11 rushes, 23 yards.

That's the Rudi I know.

[korme]

Why is Chris Chandler in for the Rams?

[Dutch]

Jay Taylor, good from 50 yards!!! If you don't know who I'm talking about, it explains why he received a standing ovation before and after the FG attemp. :)

[korme]

And wtf - Dolhpins 21, Bills 14 in the 1st. They want to challenge the Bengals/Browns for most useless high scoring game of the season.

[korme]

Jay Taylor, good from 50 yards!!! If you don't know who I'm talking about, it explains why he received a standing ovation before and after the FG attemp. :)
New Bucs kicker in place of Marteeeeeen?

[Dutch]

Correct. I know, it's kind of goofy to give your kicker a stand ovation before a kick, but it was kind of funny to watch them standing and cheering.

[Crapshoot]

Damnit- Vick injured = end of Falcon's season/

[Dutch]

Damnit he's already fully recovered from his season ending injury...

[Crapshoot]

Damnit he's already fully recovered from his season ending injury...

point Dutch. But he looks slowed down out there.

[Passacaglia]

Why is Chris Chandler in for the Rams?

To throw a TD pass to Torry Holt, in case Bears fans are watching updates while suffering through Chad Hutchinson.

[Dutch]

And with that slowness, the DL just made him look silly. FUMBLE! :D

[korme]

Palmer just throws a BOMB to Chad Johnson for 51 yards, yet again we are in their territory, maybe we can make something of it.

4th down, and again we'll try a FG. This time Shayne will drain it, he's very good, 53 was just too long for him. 41 yarder right down the middle. 3-3.

Palmer has looked good, despite this last clearly overthrown ball on 3rd and 3. 13 of 16, 129 yards.

[AlexB]

All hail the Miami offensive juggernaut! 24 points, not just in 1 month, nor 1 game, but just over one quarter... man, the Bills D must be bad

[korme]

Dillon 17 carries, 98 yards, 2 td... 1st half. He is so good.. I miss our running game.

[Suicane75]

Everywhere i went said to take Miami/Buffalo over 34, I just couldnt do it. I'm an idiot.

[cthomer5000]

Pennington is very sharp. I think he's 9/10 (the only incomplete pass an INT though).

Texans lead 7-6 at halftime though.

[korme]

Harriington looking good.

Crappy defenses in the NFL today.

[VPI97]

If I were the Falcons, I'd trade Peerless Price for a couple of kicking tees and a face shield for Vick. Was that three drops on one drive?

[GrantDawg]

If I were the Falcons, I'd trade Peerless Price for a couple of kicking tees and a face shield for Vick. Was that three drops on one drive?
Agreed. Imagine what Vick would look like with recievers who actually made plays on the ball.

[Crapshoot]

Agreed. Imagine what Vick would look like with recievers who actually made plays on the ball.

Crumpler has done a pretty good job, but ya- Price has been a$42 million waste. A first round draft pick this fall on a WR might be nice.

[GrantDawg]

Crumpler has done a pretty good job, but ya- Price has been a$42 million waste. A first round draft pick this fall on a WR might be nice.
We spent one this year. If anyone has seen Michael Jenkins, please tell him the season started.

Crumpler has been excellent, but he and Dunn are the only players on the team with soft hands.

[GrantDawg]

Of course Vick seems to have forgotten how to hold the ball. How much you want to bet he is playing with a concussion?

[Crapshoot]

We spent one this year. If anyone has seen Michael Jenkins, please tell him the season started.

Crumpler has been excellent, but he and Dunn are the only players on the team with soft hands.

roffle- forgot about that. What's the deal with him- Rookie and Mora doesnt trust him ?

[korme]

Jenkins was fantastic at OSU - unspectacular but solid possession receiver, hopefully he'll see more action next year.

[VPI97]

Jenkins was fantastic at OSU - unspectacular but solid possession receiver, hopefully he'll see more action next year.Dude's a stiff. Atlanta would have been better off if they forfeited that pick and not taken anyone.

[GrantDawg]

roffle- forgot about that. What's the deal with him- Rookie and Mora doesnt trust him ?
Since I've only seen him in one game all season, I have no idea. I would say he must look real bad in practice. The fact that the Falcons rarely use more than two WR (heck, they rarely use two WR) doesn't give him much of a shot at playing.

[digamma]

Did any of my fellow Falcon fans think we had a shot in this one (before it started)? To me, it set up for a no-brainer loss.

[korme]

And we blow yet another chance. FUCK. :(

Palmer in Baltimore's territory, overthrows WIDE OPEN CHAD JOHNSON and instead throws a perfect bomb to Ed Reed, who starts to return it, FUMBLES, McAllister picks it up and goes about 60 yards.

20-3 Ravens. :(

[GrantDawg]

Did any of my fellow Falcon fans think we had a shot in this one (before it started)? To me, it set up for a no-brainer loss.
Not really.

[Dutch]

Did any of my fellow Falcon fans think we had a shot in this one (before it started)? To me, it set up for a no-brainer loss.

Sorry, I didn't see that memo prior to the game. :)

[GrantDawg]

Sorry, I didn't see that memo prior to the game. :)Really? It was the constant theme on the radio this week. Desperate teams at home generally win.

[Dutch]

On FOFC.

[Suicane75]

The referees in this Jets/Texans game are fuckin horrid. They called intentional grounding on a play where Johnson and Carr got mixed up and Carr threw to where nobody was and a few plays before that they called a block in the back on the Jets and then picked up the flag and called no penalty which cost the Texans badly. the last 3 plays have taken about 6 hours thanks to refs having no clue what the fuck they're doing.

[AlexB]

I liked the zebra who dropped the snap on the punt in the Texans end zone... Nice of him to try to take it for the injured Stanley

[korme]

Wow, fantastic grab by TJ Houshmandzadeh... really proving to be a nice player.

[korme]

We make it a game with 10:39 left on another TD for Chad Johson. 20-17, Ravens.

Palmer has really thrown 2 bad passes this game.

His line is looking nice. 23/27, 250 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

[duckman]

Crazy shit going on during the Colts-Titans game. The Titans have kicked three on-side kicks in the first quarter alone!

[TargetPractice6]

Dillon 17 carries, 98 yards, 2 td... 1st half. He is so good.. I miss our running game.Rudi is on pace for 1500 yards which is more than Dillon ever got for us in a season.

[SirFozzie]

Geez, even if I'm a Pats fanatic.. was it really necessary to throw bombs on 2nd and 3rd and 22 from the 44 when you're up 35-7???

Cleveland: Worst. Defense. EVAR.

[cthomer5000]

Lets go Bengals, that would be huge for the Jets.

[cthomer5000]

Curtis Martin is just rolling today, and has (at lest temporarily) passed Jerome Bettis to move into 5th all-time. He's less than 300 yards behing Eric Dickerson as well.

[korme]

Rudi is on pace for 1500 yards which is more than Dillon ever got for us in a season. hell no he isn't.. and if by some crazy wacked out chance he is, it's because he's going to carry it 300-350 times this year, with a ypc under 4.0.

Just saw that he is, and his ypc is 4.2

Take away last week's game, and he has done below average the entire season.

[cthomer5000]

wow, unreal stat in the Jets game.

Chad Pennington all-time in the Red Zone: 35 touchdowns, 0 interceptions.

[TargetPractice6]

hell no he isn't.. and if by some crazy wacked out chance he is, it's because he's going to carry it 300-350 times this year, with a ypc under 4.0.Before today he had 1050 yards and was averaging 96 yards per game with 5 games left. If he continues that average then it's 475 yards for the rest of of the season and 1525 total. The Bengals play some tough defense though so I doubt he will get all the way there, but it's not like Dillon ever did much better than Rudi has this season.

[Ben E Lou]

Can we not RUN the ball from the one-yard line????? :mad:

[Crapshoot]

Can we not RUN the ball from the one-yard line????? :mad:

I never thought I'd agree with the SkyDog offense- but ya, Im not sure what Mora is thinking there/

[TargetPractice6]

A chest bump is excessive celebration?

[Dutch]

:D

[korme]

Housh comes up big 2 straight plays, we're down 23-17 but now in Baltimore territory. This is where we struggle, moving the ball into the endzone, we always stall here.

Make that 3 big plays for Housh! TD! Bengals lead 24-23!!!!! We have rallied with 3 TD this quarter! Yay! No game other than football messes with my emotions like this!

Palmer has a career high 317 yards
C. Johnson - 9 catches, 139 yards, 2 td
Houshmandzadeh - 9 catches, 139 yards, 1 td

[Ben E Lou]

I never thought I'd agree with the SkyDog offense- but ya, Im not sure what Mora is thinking there/Seriously, the Falcons have a 250-pound halfback who hasn't been stopped for a loss all game long. There is no excuse for him not getting the ball in either of those situations. We ran three plays from inside the 3 today: 1 QB draw, and 2 passes. Blech.

[AlexB]

Great decision for me to leave Palmer on the bench for my fantasy team then...

[Dutch]

:D :D :D :D Sorry, we'll take that!

[cthomer5000]

I imagine the Texans will be making D-line their top priority this offseason. Jets are over 200 rushing yards now.

[Dutch]

Desperate Team 27, Michael Vick 0

Smack that ass! :)

[Suicane75]

damnit man, the NFL live update things sucks. Everytime the Rams game reloads it jumps back 6 minutes.

[cthomer5000]

Cincy, please hold on.

[korme]

Here we go again: Baltimore 26, Cinci 24. Let's see if you've got one more drive in you today, Carson, your receivers are hot. Feed them, not Ed or Chris.

[korme]

Palmer sacked

[korme]

OMG, on the run going to his left so he's throwing an awkward way, dips it into Housh for a 25+ yarder

Housh 10 catches, 171 yards :):):)

[Suicane75]

Please let Wilkins kick A FG

[korme]

Into field goal range!!1

[TargetPractice6]

Man, Housh really stepped up in Warrick's place.

Palmer tosses to Johnson inside the 10!

[korme]

Timing pattern to CJ into the 10!!

WE GONNA WIN! NO TURNOVERS BOYS!

[Dutch]

Ballsy play call for the Bengals! Nice job.

[TargetPractice6]

12 men on the field for the Ravens. 5 yards closer...

[cthomer5000]

GO BENGALS!

[TargetPractice6]

2 seconds left to kick a 23 yard field goal...

[korme]

Graham for the win....

Right down the middle! We win!

I am so excited as we again strive for mediocrity!

[TargetPractice6]

it's good! Cincinnati wins and gets to .500!

[cthomer5000]

Tampa just gave Atlanta a good-old beat down, eh?

[TargetPractice6]

But this win over the Ravens was about a season too late for the Bengals...

so pretty

[Crapshoot]

Nicely done by the Bengals- the Ravens now might miss out on the playoffs. the AFC is the NFC's daddy this year.

[Chubby]

McGahee's stiff arm is deadly

[Solecismic]

Compare Pennington's stats inside the 20 with what Vick did today with those interceptions. Think of how good Vick would be if he just got a little bit better with his decision making.

And now we see Minnesota's annual late-season fade into mediocrity. Could both NFL wild-card teams be 8-8 this year?

[Swaggs]

Thank you Bengals for beating the Ravens. :)

[Router Help]

Kevin Jones of the Lions has a 195 yards rushing and the Lions take knee to end the game. :(

[GrantDawg]

Tampa just gave Atlanta a good-old beat down, eh?
No doubt. Atlanta has had a lot of pratice losing over the years. They know how to do that well.

[GrantDawg]

Agreed, but even better would be if the coach called plays that made sense.

[Chubby]

Pat Williams puts the stake through the Dolphins heart HAHAHAHA

"Just beat the Dolphins" :D

[AlexB]

Hey, we had to throw the lead - we blew the 1st pick last week, don't want to risk the 2nd now as well!

[Chubby]

another pick by Feely, 5 picks and 2 fumbles for the good guys?

[Chubby]

TO TD, sets Eagles single season TD record

[Desnudo]

We spent one this year. If anyone has seen Michael Jenkins, please tell him the season started.

Crumpler has been excellent, but he and Dunn are the only players on the team with soft hands.

If it makes you feel better, Jenkins was All-Pro for me in my FOF game.

[Desnudo]

Did anyone watching the Pats game see Troy Brown's interception?

[AlexB]

Jesse Chatman's gonna have a headache in the morning - John Lynch almost decapitated him!

[GrantDawg]

If it makes you feel better, Jenkins was All-Pro for me in my FOF game.
I've taken him to All-Pro in Madden. No, it doesn't help. :)

[Solecismic]

Feeley completed passes to 15 different receivers today. That would seem more impressive if a third of them didn't have different colored jerseys.

[dfisher]

Eagles are making quite a statement. 28-0 and look to be going in again at two minute warning.

Dan

[Chubby]

35-0 Eagles, 5 tds for McNabb wow

[dfisher]

McNabb is 24-28, 303 yds, 5 td with some time left in first half.

Dan

[-Mojo Jojo-]

I love the Packers, but they've got pretty much the worst secondary I've ever seen. The high draft picks spent on Ahmad Carroll and Joey Thomas were spectacularly wasted. I still can't believe they let Mike McKenzie walk away.

[Desnudo]

Before today he had 1050 yards and was averaging 96 yards per game with 5 games left. If he continues that average then it's 475 yards for the rest of of the season and 1525 total. The Bengals play some tough defense though so I doubt he will get all the way there, but it's not like Dillon ever did much better than Rudi has this season.

Well it's kind of hard to do much better than 1500 yards. And Dillon is on pace for that in NE. Granted it's not the same challenge as running in Cincy, but he's the best running back the Pats have ever had in their history.

[Desnudo]

Funny section from the AP report of the Pats-Browns:

"When Cleveland's players arrived for the game, they found T-shirts draped on their locker room chairs that said, ``I Got Your Back.'' They were given the wrong size, though, forcing the Browns to work the room to find one that fit."

Robiski may want to bring in Tony Robbins, because I don't think t-shirts, buckets of ice, and shovels is going to bring the W's.

[Buccaneer]

Go Bolts!!!!!! With a household full of Donkeys fan, you should have heard the screaming on that last play. We all agree that was kinda stupid.

Btw, why no action in this thread for the late games? Not everything in football revolves around Georgia.

[Dutch]

The risk sure seemed great when all it would accomplish was a hail mary that was only 45 yards instead of 50.

[cthomer5000]

Personally, I kind of tune out when I'm stuck with the Giants game... so that leads to no commenting on the late games.

[cthomer5000]

The Eagles clinch a bye week with a win or a Seahawks loss.

[flere-imsaho]

I can't believe the Bears are still in the hunt for a Wild Card spot.

[Buccaneer]

I guess it shouldn't surprise me but why isn't the Chargers the biggest news in the NFL so far? All of the rest of the division leaders are of no surprise.

[cthomer5000]

I guess it shouldn't surprise me but why isn't the Chargers the biggest news in the NFL so far? All of the rest of the division leaders are of no surprise.
I'm with you, they have been pretty overlooked. I think it's because there are some other huge stories out there:

- the continued dominance of the Patriots
- Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers
- The Eagles seemingly having made a step to the next level
- Peyton Manning just terminating the opponent on a weekly basis

Schott. is a lock for coach of the year, but the 'Bolts (and Drew Brees) aren't getting enough publicity, IMHO.

[Buccaneer]

1. Just like last year.
2. True, this is a big story.
3. No they haven't. They would only do so if they win the NFC.
4. Just like last year.

[cthomer5000]

1. But it gets more impressive/historic the longer it goes
3. But they've never been this hot, passed so well, destroyed fellow NFC teams like this. You have to admit they easily look better than the Eagles teams of 2001, 2002, or 2003.
4. Bucc, are you kidding me? He's going to torch what some people thought was an unbreakable record. And I don't know this for a fact, but I imagine the Colts are on pace to break the single-season scoring record.

edit: yes, the Colts are on pace to break the Minnesota record from 1998.

[MikeVic]

Nice block by Staley on that TD pass.

[stevew]

I agree, Staley made a nice stuff. Hines Ward with a couple nice grabs there on the drive.

1. Impressive, yes; historic? It's up there with the runs the Packers, Dolphins, or Steelers made in the 60s and 70s. Their place in history would be cemented with a SB win this season.
3. Probably true but I imagine some Philly fans aren't buying it until the NFC championship game.
4. True but what did all of those points get the Vikings in 1998? Or Marino in 1984? The Colts, like the Eagles, have to win the SB or at least be there in order to meet expectations.

[Dutch]

4. True but what did all of those points get the Vikings in 1998? Or Marino in 1984? The Colts, like the Eagles, have to win the SB or at least be there in order to meet expectations.

Be careful, you might just have answered why the Chargers aren't getting any play right now.

That's all true, but this year's Super Bowl has not been played yet. These are the stories of right now. That was my point.

[sterlingice]

This Sunday Night game is really fun. Just good clean smashmouth.

SI

[stevew]

I hate instant replay. And Theisman ads nothing to this telecast. The main pbp guy is okay, maguire sucks, and Theisman is horrid. Every once in awhile they could just shut up.

[sterlingice]

Byron Leftwich reminds me of Stan Humphries who just loved to step into tackles to throw the ball. Tough stuff but it certainly shortens your NFL longevity.

I used to not have an opinion about these guys. It is the first game I have really watched since it is the first Steelers game this year. They have been awful. Missed names, bad analysis.

Todd

[cthomer5000]

They are easily the worst broadcasting team ever assembled.

[stevew]

Fred Taylor is really good. I hate playing in jacksonville.

[TLK]

Let's go Fred Taylor..... I hate fantasy football, and I mean that in the best way possible....

[Eaglesfan27]

It's interesting to see if Ben can get the team into field goal position.. well that pass almost has them there.

[JeeberD]

"TD" Lee Mays makes a catch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kingfc22]

Big Ben is impressive!

[JeeberD]

And another!!!!!!!!

[sterlingice]

Um... why not kneel in the middle of the field after the clock runs down and leave them with 3 seconds left?

Edit: Instead, it's near the hash and there's 20 seconds left after the attempt.

SI

[Eaglesfan27]

Big Ben is impressive!
Very impressive.

[cthomer5000]

I hated the clock management there. I want to be on record as saying that. Should've gone for more yardage. kick upcoming...

[kingfc22]

It's good

[stevew]

Man..... 18 more game seconds of listening to these 3 jackasses.

[Radii]

great game

[Eaglesfan27]

Hmmm.. do they go for the 60 yard field goal.. they are!

[Eaglesfan27]

It had the distance, but just a little wide.

[kingfc22]

Holy crap that was close

[stevew]

Wow, that was pretty darn close.

[Eaglesfan27]

Watching Pittsburgh play makes me want to see an all Pennsylvania Super Bowl.

[henry296]

Um... why not kneel in the middle of the field after the clock runs down and leave them with 3 seconds left?

SI

With no Time outs left, it is easier to get the kicking team out there. Also, Cowher is a big fan of kicking on 3rd down in case something goes wrong.

I would have run the ball, even with a qb sneak and then spike it.

Todd

[MikeVic]

Good game. :D

Jacksonville had 2 timeouts.

[sterlingice]

Man, that was a fun game. I don't really care about the three dufuses (dufii?) in the booth because at least they're having fun with it. I get much more offended by listening to Madden or Vitale or Walton who want to project that they know what they're talking about by substituting loud volume for substance when it's clearly not the case.

SI

[ISiddiqui]

I slap all of you 'Sunday Night guys' haters (sterlingice is ok)! I LOVE the Sunday Night Football team, who are by far my favorite announcers. They are perhaps the only team that are unafraid of having opinions and having fun up in the booth. Give me them over any other team out there any day of the week and twice and Sundays.

You surely cannot be serious. If not for the bad delay, i would have listened to the radio, and watched the game on mute.

If their 'opinions' are constantly flip-flopping and kissing the ass of every star player, then yes, they speak their mind quite frequently.

[Butter]

So, I guess the Bengals will be 8-8 again this year, with New England and Philly still left on the road. They needed to have at least 8 wins by now to have any chance at the playoffs.

At least Palmer is finally starting to look like he has a clue out there. He has been terrific the last 2 weeks.

[cthomer5000]

The Cowboys are looking pretty good right now, Julius Jones particularly.

[Dutch]

And a nice catch by KJ...

[ISiddiqui]

Yeah, Jones is really making Parcells' pick of him look genius. He's had a nice run of games.

[cthomer5000]

and how shitty does Seattle look? Are they even interested in playing?

[Dutch]

Punt Muff.

The Dallas guy touched it, but the ball was not dead, it was a "free run for the Seattle player". I'm confused. :confused:

[ISiddiqui]

Seattle sure woke up, didn't they!!

[Dutch]

Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!

I cannot believe that I am still watching Jerry Rice accel at this game. Albeit in clutch situations and not all game, every game.

[cthomer5000]

Punt Muff.

The Dallas guy touched it, but the ball was not dead, it was a "free run for the Seattle player". I'm confused. :confused:
Yeah, you rarely see that come into play.

When the ball is punted and the kicking team touches it first, it's essentially a "free play" for the return team. They can only benefit by picking it up and trying to run with it.

[ISiddiqui]

WOW! What a TD catch by Keyshawn!
