Why any playoff team would have him on their roster is beyond me.

Well, it's great that after seeing the reply forty five times, the announcers were able to figure out that it was a block in the back that sprung Rossum on the last return.

I was beginning to wonder if I'd completely lost my eyesite. That was just pathetic.

Me? I like watching Vick. I like watching Culpepper. I like watching McNabb. Doesn't matter to me what the game is. I think the game of the playoffs is tomorrow. I believe the winner of the Indy/NE game will win two more games and hold up the trophy in a few weeks.

That sounds painful enough just reading about the razor blades. I didn't like Jets-Steelers game that much, neither QB looked very good. Some nice runs by the RBs though. Really enjoyed watching Manning last week. Never liked watching Favre. I really like aggressive defensive plays and special teams. I like rooting against stupid coaches like Martz, Tice and Holmgren. I can easily pick and choose what I like and don't like and it doesn't have to match anyone else's list. I don't ever recall hating every single team representing a conference in the playoffs as this year's NFC. There was always at least one team to root fot but this year it's awful. Go AFC.

Can anyone give me a quick summary of the Falcons-Rams game so far. I just got home. I want to know how the hell this ATL offense has put up 38. I'm not complaining though.

jeebus. this is a rout. And I gotta say, Michael Vick looks damn good, as does the rest of the Falcons offense (Warrick Dunn anyone?). Tomorrow's games ought to be simply awesome though.

The Falcons have had great field position all night due to Allen Rossum's punt (and kickoff) returns. He ahs set a record tonight with punt return yardage (and has a TD). The rest has been a steady diet of runs by Dunn and Vick.

Never said it did. Your list is your list. We have people here who love watching WR get mugged twenty yards down field and would love to see them clothslined in the middle of the field without a call. We have people who despise running QB's and those who can't stand QB's with weak arms. People who love smash mouth and people who love Air Coryell.

Me? So long as the rules are being called and the players are allowed to do their thing (ie: WR being allowed to move, DE being allowed to rush upfield without getting tackled), I like just about anything. I appreciate a 45 yard scramble by Vick, a quick read by Manning and a well times crossing route from Brady. I like watching a "home run" back, a true power back like Bettis, or an old pro showing the young pups how it's done like Curtis Martin.

Don't worry, I'm pretty certain the AFC will win the Super Bowl. But if Vick or Culpepper get to that game, the Pats, Steelers or Colts had better be prepared. Those guys know how to play the game and are dangerous, especially if the game is close in the fourth and your D has been on the field awhile.

well, who's Vick's backup? I figure we'll see him on the next possession...

edit: reckless of Mora though. Stupid...just plain stuipd. Get your $$ man out of there. And when does it become running up the score??

at this point, why should they even bother trying? Can't they just stay on the bench? LOL...the announcer on the radio just said "would it be unsportsmanlike conduct if the rams just came out and kneeled down 3 times and punted?" Makes sense to me!

yeah, like i said before...at what point did this become "running up the score?" I think the last Atlanta TD was a bit...much. They shoulda just stopped after the safety.

It was payback for the Rams/Falcons MNF game a year ago...in that one, the Rams ran it up by throwing 90% of the time in the fourth quarter and Bulger gave an on-field interview after the game basically calling the Falcons a junior high team.

Was any of the coaching staff from that game even involved? (Falcons that is)

Nope, but I would imagine that the players enjoyed the hell out of scoring again. As a Falcons fan, I know I did.

yep, he was the qb at virginia. his best play has to be from a few weeks ago when the only thing between him and the endzone was a referee... and he smashed right into him, bloodying the ref's face. now that is highlight material.

THAT was a fun game to be at! GrantDawg and I were among the 70,000 at the Dome for this one. It was rockin' from the time we got on the MARTA Train around 6:30pm. Absolutely *electric* atmosphere. All I can say right now is GO VIKINGS. Because of the timing of the NFC Championship, I'd actually be able to make it, too. I hardly ever get to regular season games (and GrantDawg basically never does) because of the normal 1pm start. More comments in the morning. For now, I'm off to check stats. For some reason, the powers that be in the Dome kept posting "Game 2 vs. Rams" stats rather than ongoing stats during the game. Very annoying. I can't imagine what Vick and Dunn's ypc numbers looked like on the night.

You do realize it'd be payback for '98 though, and the only thing to repeat would be Morten Andersen hitting the game winning field goal again.
