2007 NFL Season

[schillingouttheks]

Davenport is also a fairly competent backup.

[riverside sluggers]

The Steelers wont miss their running back who gave them 1316 rushing yards this season? IMO Davenport is solid but there is really nothing behind him on the depth chart. They have to bank that he will not go his career route, which is being injury prone.

With the offensive line in front of him, they can run the ball with anyone.

 

The sacks are a non-issue in this instance because that's a completely different type of blocking. The Steelers' line can run block. Willie Parker's rushing total is more of a compliment to the line than him.

[TheKilo]

I'd take a 4 TD performance from Romo in like, a 31-28 loss.

[ORS]

Green Bay Packers, property of the citizens of Green Bay or property of the Chicago Bears? If this holds up, Bears up 21-7, that would be a season sweep for the Bears, accounting for 2 of 3 losses.

[riverside sluggers]

The Patriots have been shut down in the 2nd half. Going for it on 4th & 7 when youre in field goal range already? Take the 3 and be up 31-7 with 9 minutes left to go

 

Patriots win 28-7, but oh god what a piss poor 2nd half showing

Yeah not pleased. Oh well. Wake me in three weeks.

[Mr Crunchy]

the were playing to score and brady was forcing everything

the fins play us tuff all the time it seems.

 

buffalo blew that game today,eli is 1 and done in the playoffs

 

greenbay got throttled in the 2nd half.

it dont mean s*** outside of bragging rights

 

joe gibbs is the 2nd best coach ive seen and his guys are playing real well now

you dont want to have to get by him

tavraes jackson...come beat me....

he sold out for the run and the vikes had no answer till late.

gibby won 3 sb's with 3 guys who were journeymen,hes a tuff out

indy and jaxonville are clicking,jaxonville remains under the wire,they need playoff success of some sort to vindicate a great regular season

tamoa and seattle are 5 win teams in the afc and im sincere in this

dallas is good the pack are having a great year too but the rest of the league eats it

I wouldn't be worried just yet, the reason for the poor 2nd half was brady going for the record books , wich he could afford to do with this s***** dolphins team

You're right on the money with Gibbs. The 'Skins are very motivated now. They've survived a mid-season slump and they are now on a roll. I'd watch out for them come playoff time.

[ORS]

Gibbs has been good the last couple of weeks, but he's a big reason why they haven't already clinched a playoff spot, IMO. His supporting staff has been on the ball too. They've suffered from poor clock management, which to me is a lack of focus and poor communication. The 12 man on the field challenge to avoid a turnover was a good example of how they've improved the last couple of weeks.

[Mr Crunchy]

the skins had a couple of boneheaded moves that cost them games late

that game against buffalo was sickening

[TheKilo]

DONT KICK IT TO HESTER

Beautiful throw from Collins to Moss. Looks like WAS will be in the playoffs.

 

 

I love sports.

[Cocos Disciples]

Titans make the playoffs, Browns get the shaft.

[mtbykr]

Sucks for RAC, I wish Cleveland could have gotten in.

Ravens fire Billick

 

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7621108

This comes one day after FOX Sports reported that the players and other employees informed team owner Steve Biscotti that Billick had completely lost the locker room and could not win them back.

[mtbykr]

Tuna fires Cameron.....this was an easy choice though:

I suppose we can just use this thread for the playoffs. Seahawks-Redskins is now, both teams' first drive went without score.

[Cocos Disciples]

7-0 Seahawks.

[Mr Crunchy]

back earlier in the year the skins coaches gagged late in the game by calling a t/o when they had none and instead of buff kicking a 50+ fg to win they were inside 40...

inexcusable and so very unbecomig of a joe gibbs squad

now look at them

this is the 2nd best coach ever in my opinion and his half time adjustments are better than anyones....

so we have holmgren and the hawks up 13 and getting the ball to start the 2nd half

should be a safe ride into the next round you wouild think right?

ya

well the hawks are reeling

now seattle is down 14-13 and just escaped a blown kickoff return with the skins kicker shanking a 30yrd bunny...down the stretch we go and in a 1 point game i'll take gibbs and his inferior team against the hawks at home....

coaching in the nfl is far and away more essential than in any other sport

some guys are perrenial contenders and some guys cant win with the deck stacked in their favor time and time again

schottenheimer was the best coach in nfl history between august and xmas

come round 2 of the playoffs the man turned into a craven fairy and no matter what his decisions were,be it conservative or aggressive play calling he'd be wrong.

bud grant won 4 nfc titles and lost 4 superbowls

marv levy 4 afc titles and went winless but in fairness to marv the only 1 he really shouldve won was against the giants in 91--the other 3 he was a huge dog in..

dungee won last year but with rex grossmans play it was easy

he left tampa and they got over the hump the following year.

he was a candidate for the gag award till then

bill cowher got the monkey off his back but he had the luxury of jeremy stevens and mike holmgren on the other side of the ball that year.

chuck knox was in a shitload of nfc title games with the rams and never got to the big game

 

seattle went in and is up 7

skins by 3 in ot i predict and i like the steelers at home tonite

 

good luck to all

[Mr Crunchy]

i am not nostradum

seattle again and up 14

[Cocos Disciples]

Yikes, I thought the Redskins were going to win for sure, especially once they recovered the kickoff and had it in the red zone. I stopped watching and came back later when the Hawks scored their last TD and was astonished. Seahawks at Packers in the 2nd round.

 

Steelers had an awesome opening march down the field and then the Jags tie it up on 2 plays, 7-7, 6 minutes in.

[See Red]

Pittsburgh can go ahead and thank the refs on that Pass Interference call... that should've been on Hines Ward.

 

Would've been smart if Brian Williams just took a dive and gone to the ground... they might've gotten the call if he had.

[See Red]

Ballgame. Jaguars win. Garrard with a 30+ yard run on 4th and 2 sets up a chip shot for Scobee. Glad the Jags won it.

[rician blast]

I thought the Steelers got screwed on the 2 pt converison...didn't see a hold on the guy they named for the infraction. After that call I was pulling for them.

 

But when Ward grabbed the facemask and the Jags got flagged, I quickly shifted to the Jags.

 

Glad they got it done.

 

BTW, do the past 2 yrs show that the Steelers SB win was more a fluke than anything else?

[mtbykr]

Gibbs resigns:

[riverside sluggers]

Damn Ryan Grant, how are you feeling right now? In the first minute/9 seconds he fumbles the ball twice. Seahawks have capitalized and lead it early 14-0

[Cocos Disciples]

Game didn't go so well for GB in the first 3 minutes, but they can easily come back.
