Interesting night.

Of course theres' ALWAYS coulda/shoulda/woulda, but S.D. should've won if their kicker could hit a FG.
Same w/ Seattle. Man....Dropped passes :nope:

(I like how many of my guys are still alive from my championship fantasy team (not IM, but another league). Faulk, Favre, Ahman, Harrison, Crumpler, McNabb, H. Ward, Pennington...damn i'm a good GM)

3 run plays (the last one to the right!) and then a kick in the rain by a rookie on 4:th down from the right of the field, thats just bad coaching.

bad coaching?

a 40yd fg with the season on the line? that needs to be made. has nothing ton do with coaching.

Yes, bad coaching, raining like crazy all day, and you don't try to get a little closer for a "rookie" kicker. Yes, I think bad coaching!!! :yes:

What I don't get is that they had 3 trys before 4th down to get a little closer, and everytime somebody ran the ball.. I would've at least passed the ball on 3rd.
 
the reason they didn't pass is cuz you don't risk the interception/sack for a loss. a running play, although will typically yield the fewest yards, is the safest bet.
 
Funniest play of the day ... Farve's underhand toss after he was four yards past the line :laugh:

Don't get me wrong, Favre's great.

but if it was ANY other player in the league, they'd be harshly criticized for doing that instead of lowering their shoulder and trying to get the 1st or TD, by fans and announcers alike.

I understand guys were lining him up, but shit, everyone else takes that chance just as much as Favre...
 
Back when Farve was actually playing he would have too. He used to run like a TE of a HB when needed. Now he jogs and throughs week ass crap like that.
 
He's getting older. He knows it, it's not like he's in his 20's anymore.

Pittsburgh
St Louis
Philadelphia
New England
 
Muscle Gelz Transdermals
IronMag Labs Prohormones
Pittsburgh
St. Louis

Indy <--------- my underdog pick

I live in PA and love both Philly and Pitt but I think Philly may struggle once again. Will be a tight game.

St. Louis is a dog, too.

There's no way Indy's coming into NE and beating the Pats. Belichik owns Payton.
 
Pittsburgh
St.Louis
Indy
Minn

Man I really went out on a limp here. But what the fuck :lol:
 
I had a feeling that the St.Louis game was going to be no more than a 10 point game & it was a 7 point game.


I also had a very strong feeling that the Chargers & Jets game was going to be no more than a 3 or 7 point game. But I was wrong about the Chargers winning.

What I couldn't unerstand is why they ran the ball 3 times in OT?

I know they were trying to protect the football to get into field goal range but why in God's name did they runt the ball twice to the right side to put force their rookie kicker to kick from the right hash mark?

I personally would've tried to throw the ball once for a 5 or 8 yard pic up then I would've ran the ball in the middle.

B/c if they were set up to kick it from the middle, the rookie Charger kicker would've made that kick & won the game at home.

I just didn't understand that, neither did the group of ppl I was watching the game with.


As for the Indy game, I thought Denver would've had a little more fight in them than that :confused:

Jake Plummer is a very good QB, but Denver had no defense & Manning just picked them apart. I thought it was going to be only a 21 point victory for the Colts LOL


As for the Packer & Viking game that really surprised me. I thought that the Packers would've pulled out a victory with a 10 point lead.

But instead they lost by 14 points.

I was hoping they'd win for Reggie.

Oh well, we'll see what next weekend brings.


My picks are still Pittsburg & New England with St. Louis & Philidelphia & I see a New England Vs. St. Louis Super Bowl yet again. But apart of me sees Pittsburgh Vs. St. Louis in the Super Bowl.
 
Steelers beat the Jets by 7and go on to win the ring.
St Louis
Philadelphia
 Pat's ... well two outta four aint bad.


​
 
I'm going with:

Pittsburgh
Atlanta (nobody seems to like them :hmm: )
Philly
Indy against New England is tough but I'm going Indy after the display they put on yesterday. Even though they were at home they had total dominance on both sides of the ball.

I think you missed this part as I agreed that it was important to protect the ball. But it would've made sense to take at least one shot at a pass to "TRY" & gain another 5 or 8 yards to MAKE AN EASIEIR FIELD GOAL FOR THEIR ROOKIE KICKER.

I know they were trying to protect the football to get into field goal range but why in God's name did they runt the ball twice to the right side to put force their rookie kicker to kick from the right hash mark?

Just an observation. I never said it was easy. But if I were the coach I would've called a short sideline pass to protect the ball or maybe something short into the flat like a TE screen.


They started running into the middle & I thought they were going to attempt to set it up in the middle to make it easier for the kicker, but when they ran 2 plays to the right, that just didn't make sense.

That field goal would've been good had they ran into the middle.

JMO.
