NFL Week 7 Thread
 
Week 7 features another exciting slate of prime time games .. Oh wait, no it doesn't. On SNF we have the Saints and Colts and on MNF we have the Jags and Ravens.

Awesome.

Rex Grossman being benched for a guy that's thrown like 5 career passes and wasn't even good enough for the Dolphins?

Shocking!

RendeR 10-20-2011 11:03 AM

There is not a single game this week where a winning record faces another winning record.


I guarantee that the Bengals will not lose this week.

JediKooter 10-20-2011 11:25 AM

I predict the Jets will beat the Chargers.

As a follow-up to my post in the Week 6 thread about the Ronnie Brown/Jerome Harrison trade being voided...

Quote:

As Philadelphia Eagles doctors were giving newly acquired running back Jerome Harrison his physical, they discovered a brain tumor that nullified a trade with the Detroit Lions, according to two league sources.

Wow.

Stop it. You have no reason to agree with what my gut is telling me as well.

Haha! Ok ok. If this was a playoff game, the Jets would definitely beat the Chargers, but, since this is a regular season game...they have a chance to not lose.

I believe two Packers got fined $5k each for wearing yellow shoes lol.

Thanks to all of the Tebow lovers the Broncos/Dolphins line is now a Pick em game in Vegas. It would appear there is a lot of value in taking the winless Dolphins this week.

Apparently Tony Sparano needs to win this game in order to keep his job as well. I cant see the Dolphins not playing their asses off to keep their jobs for next season and to not let Tebow shine in their own state.

SD(4-1) at Jets(3-3)
Texans(3-3) at Titans(3-2)
Falcons(3-3) at Lions(5-1)
Bears(3-3) vs Bucs(4-2) in London

:)

Passacaglia 10-23-2011 11:57 AM

Winning record usually means *better than* .500

Thomkal 10-23-2011 12:04 PM

Hmmmm no Panthers game here in Myrtle Beach on either channel that gets it-showing the game in London instead.

Thomkal 10-23-2011 12:05 PM

not getting the Tebow game either, so let us know how he looks.

Somebody apparantly hit the wrong button-Panthers game back on with both channels

stevew 10-23-2011 12:12 PM

Seattle killed their first drive into 3rd and 31.

cuervo72 10-23-2011 12:12 PM

I think that was FOX-wide just for the anthems.

Nice run by Newton. Wow.

Ah I see I didn't stick around for the anthem when I saw they were at the London game. I hope it was good ;)

Thomkal 10-23-2011 12:19 PM

Panthers should have gone for the TD on 4th and 1, especially with Newton having 5 running TD's so far.

stevew 10-23-2011 12:19 PM

I wish the London game was televised here. 2 channels of watching Colt McCoy suck going on instead.

cuervo72 10-23-2011 12:21 PM

The woman who sang God Save the Queen wasn't too bad.

(and she could sing ok)

stevew 10-23-2011 12:23 PM

Whitehurst is every bit as bad as advertised.

Thomkal 10-23-2011 12:31 PM

Uh John Beck, not so good there...threw a pass that should have been intercepted, got another tipped at line of scrimmage, then got sacked and fumbled the ball away to Carolina. Rex Grossman better have his helmet on if that keeps up. :)

Shkspr 10-23-2011 12:33 PM

Already a near pick or two and a QB fumble for Washington...at some point you have to think about getting Grossman out of there and see what Beck has.


Oh, riiiiiiiiiight...

cuervo72 10-23-2011 12:37 PM

Wonder if Brian Mitchell is in the stadium and available.

TroyF 10-23-2011 01:02 PM

Tebow looks poor in the pocket thus far (huge shock)

The running game looks better, I think as a major result of Tebow. (people staying at home more preparing for him to run out)

3-4, 24 yards, 3 rushes, 19 yards, 1 sack (his fault) 1 of the runs was not his fault.

As I typed this on a 2nd and 10, Tebow stayed in the pocket and threw a pass to Eddie Royal in tight coverage. The pass was thrown about as good as you can throw a football and it went through Eddie's hands.

Prater has missed 2 FG in this game. Dolphine 3-0,

Finishing this up, Tebow was drilled hard and should have thrown an INT on a 3rd and 10 (tipped ball)

The Dolphin who hit him got called for a roughing the QB and he clearly hit him square on the head. Good call. Broncos ball at the 25.

As I finished typing the post, McGahee busts out for a 10 yard run and fumbles. Dolphins ball at the Denver 40.

Schmidty 10-23-2011 01:12 PM

HORRIBLE fucking call on Vandenbosh for roughing the passer. Garbage.

JonInMiddleGA 10-23-2011 01:28 PM

2 mins left in the first half, Atlanta leads Detroit 10-6. Falcons have 79 yds total offense, Lions have 75 yds.

edit: Naturally, while I'm typing that little tidbit, Atlanta gets another 69 yds (and a TD) on like 4 plays

MrBug708 10-23-2011 01:30 PM

Incredible hand strength by White

Shkspr 10-23-2011 01:34 PM

Washington KNOWS they've won too many games to get Luck, right? No harm in trying Plan B and go for the Wild Card.

mckerney 10-23-2011 01:41 PM

Go Dolphins! Stop sucking for Luck!

kingfc22 10-23-2011 01:47 PM

The Titans defense is showing ZERO heart right now.

Houston absolutely doing anything they want.

This is also the first time I've ever seen a team jump offside and have the refs call the offensive team for holding when they grab the guy who jumped, wiping out the penalty.


Yeah that was just a bizarre call on the offsides/holding-refs will have a lot to answer for in this one after the game is over.

kingfc22 10-23-2011 02:02 PM

Matt Ryan with the "done for the year" looking knee injury.

The invisible sniper got him. (On second look, it looks like he was stepped on).

No bueno if you are a Falcons fan.

Bearcat729 10-23-2011 02:02 PM

Matt Ryan is down with an ankle injury, and it doesn't sound promising

kingfc22 10-23-2011 02:04 PM

Ryan walked off the field.

Glad to see that.

larrymcg421 10-23-2011 02:05 PM

17 of 30 for 99 yards. That's the combined numbers for the QB's in the Miami-Denver game.

kingfc22 10-23-2011 02:12 PM

And Miami going anti Suck for Luck today.

larrymcg421 10-23-2011 02:12 PM

Dolphins offense finally getting something done. 13-0 now.

I think the Broncos are just sucking harder. Before that last TD, the Fins couldn't have played much worse without making it as obvious as the Black Sox.

Bearcat729 10-23-2011 02:16 PM

The NFL needs to just call the Browns/Seahawks game a loss for both teams and put a stop to this right now.

Scoobz0202 10-23-2011 02:17 PM

How is ryan playing :|

This game sucks so fucking bad. I hate Moron Jr too. Colt McCoy is not going to be a good NFL QB no matter how much of a "winner" he has been in HS. And I'm guessing that Moron Jr drafted Red Bryant with all the fellatiating that's going on.
