Well you got one thing right, the Skins won. [/quote]

HAIL!!! That was such a great game- definition of a rivalry game where it is tight the whole way. I would have still been happy with our play had we lost. Honestly, Dallas should have just ran it 95% of the time b/c even though we are a solid rush D he was getting massive yardage on each play. Dude is nuts.

I shouldn’t have been so narrow sighted in my injury choice. Skins consistently cause an injury to another team’s star through big hits. I’ve said that before and it still stands true when in these big rivalry games. Obviously not something you want to see but something I’ve actually come to expect.

That must have been scary for you hahahha

I think I gave you a tough loss in fantasy this week… Sorry man. [/quote]

Haha. Yea… I thought I definitely had that. It was actually the same kind of bad break in 3 of my leagues 2 of which came down to me praying for something better out of Graham. Certainly hasn’t been worth a 1st rounder at this point…[/quote]

I am up by 9.65 with the current second highest score out league has ever seen, and the team I am playing still has Dez. Any chance Dez is held to under 10 in fantasy tonight? [/quote]

I had a bad feeling about that game going in. Played like shit, turned it over, and still almost won. Not to worried about it. Plus I am a Colt McCoy fan, so it was hard for me to get pissed at him.

I want to trade DeMarco Murray

Wut

The trade DeMarco part?

I know it’s not what most would think. But, a) he is in a contract year, b) he has never finished a season, c) he is on pace for something like 400 carries, and d) his fumble issues are getting really f’n old.

a) If we keep him this year, do we sign him next year? He is going to be getting offers that are quite large and I wouldn’t pay him lie that because of b) and c).

b) Last week when he twisted his ankle, every year prior he would have missed some time from it. And he will miss time after this year from injuries like that. See a)

c) Every running back in the history of the NFL after a 400 carry season has dropped way off in production.

d) Enough said

I think we could get a young, unproven, backup qb for him, with maybe a second rounder?

Romo is great but I don’t think there is anyway he finishes out his contract (back). I really like Randle and Dunbar. If Randle was getting the same amount of touches as Murray, he might not be putting up just as many yards, but I think it would be close enough.

I know Jerry was putting pen to paper today, and going over something like that in his head. I am just really hoping he is about to make a phone call soon.

Damn NFL. They could have flexed the Cardinals at Cowboys to Sunday night. I guess they didn’t believe the Redbirds would beat the eagles.
They’ll have to keep dialing up the blitzes on Romo like they did on Foles. Never sacked him but sure hit him a lot.
Fitz looked pretty good. So which Cowboy is going to cover John Brown?

I can’t believe they didn’t make the adjustments last night to that blitz/fake blitz defense.

I would have gone conventional blitz adjustment. Bring in a second TE, with your RB as pickup blocker. If they don’t come he rolls to the flat. TE has a read too, if they don’t come hits the seem. The receivers run a slant, 3 step drop and fire if a blitz. One missed tackle and he’s gone. Not, worried about last night, or teams wanting to get blitz happy against us.

Depends on which side he lines up on

Demarcus Lawrence can play Sunday

There is a human being other than Randy moss who Randy moss seems to enjoy spending his time with. It is Napoleon Dynamites uncle. Jeff George. Lol mr pangloss, I wouldn’t mind him coming back out of retirement to play for the jets. Holy moly this is getting bad… I thought butfumbe would be the worst moment in jets history. but last weeks interception and fumble extravaganza was the worst. The bills defence is better than previous years I’ll give them that,. but my f*ck they were lobbing balls right to them.It will get better though, harvin once he knows the offense will kick some but, idzik needs to be canned Rex should go back to D cordinator, he gets all horny each week about defensive plays like no one gives a shit if your not winning. mmmmm look at mo tackle some one he has good feet mmm

Pat. He hates Rex Ryan. [/quote]
lol
Actually, I kinda feel bad for ol’ Rex these days. But I definitely wouldn’t want him as head coach. Defensive coordinator I wouldn’t mind at all. I wouldn’t want him involved with the offense at all.

I don’t think that will be an issue. AT ALL!

are Niner fans wishing they had Alex Smith back?

I’m not sure a lot of QBs would have done that good against the Rams pass rush today.

Chargers played well today…doh

I know the Pats won, so I should just shut my mouth and be done with it, but god was the officiating in that game total shit.

Ticky tack PI calls on Denver’s first TD drive, and then ignore 2, count em, 2 blatant holds on the sweep for the touch? Got to be fucking kidding me last night.

Look, I don’t care either way, either let the teams play and call the egregious stuff, or call ALL the ticky tack shit. Pick one plan and be consistent. There were like 3 other PI calls that should have been called on the Pats, and quite a few infractions that could have been called on Denver that weren’t.

I’d prefer the refs stay out of it, and let them play. However, all I ask is be consistent. Fuck.

Looks like the Chiefs crushing the Patriots was the best thing to happen to New England this season. Brady playing like its 2010 again. Always good to see the Broncos get smashed.

Getting their ass kicked in primetime TV, and then in the press was the best thing to happen to this team since Corry Dillon and Rodney Harrison, lmao.

*being home dogs to Denver didn’t hurt the ol’ attitude last night either. Talk about bulletin board material.

Personally I think the Pats have been getting fucked on calls the entire season.

Happy about the win, I’ll be happier when it’s a win in January.
