2008 NFL Season

[yankees228]

Any news on Kiwanuka at the end of the game? Looked like he got hurt.

 

That's the one position where the Giants just can't afford anymore injuries.

 

He said on his postgame interview that he's fine.

[yankees228]

Yeah the Redskins offense is pretty bad.

 

Yeah, it's going to take them awhile to get used to the system. I thought the Giants defense played alright. They kind of laid back in the second half, didn't blitz too much, and just contained the Skins. That's not going to work against other teams. I feel like the Giants realized early that the Skins had nothing tonight and just coasted. Good game, but there is definitely a lot of work to be done.

 

Oh, and Jacko, I thought the season was over?

I thought they "laid back" all game. Not laid back in the sense that they didn't apply pressure through their blitz scheme, as they did that all game. To be honest, I wouldn't call it laying back, more like leaning forward. Due to Campbell's tendancy to take what they give underneath, every member of the secondary was keyed on jumping into the play once he threw short. This was a very good strategic call from the Giants coaching staff. Campbell better get used to the pathetic 4.5 Y/Att, or whatever it was last night, because the book has been written on him. Teams will not respect 15 yds beyond the line of scrimmage until he starts making them pay for it.

[Mr Crunchy]

the skins havent had an offense in years,Jason Campbell sucks .

Colt Brennan actually looked pretty good in the pre season,they have no reason not to give him a pop.

Agreed on everything, except that I felt the Giants were only sending the front four for the most part in the second half, especially in the fourth quarter.

Rodgers looks good, as does the GB defense.

[TheKilo]

I love the way McCarthy eased Rodgers into the gameplan.

 

Rodgers - 18/22, 178, 1 TD, 6 rush, 36 Yds, 1 TD against a GREAT defense

 

Favre - 15/22, 194, 2 TD against a defense of a 1-15 team.

 

I'll take it for sure.

[msubulldogs21]

Denver beating Oakland senseless 24-0 early 3rd. Wow the Raiders suck. Again.

[ORS]

Rodgers is going off in Detroit. Is he this good, or is Detroit that bad?

[CrespoBlows]

The Chiefs are really f***ing bad.

[CrespoBlows]

Herm Edwards need to be fired. If it happens during halftime that would be preferable.

[CrespoBlows]

What happened to the Colts?

[riverside sluggers]

Even with Manning healthy, this is def looking like a season that has him and Brady on the outside looking in

[ORS]

Fargas got hurt, and DMac has been officially unleashed on the NFL.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Rodgers is going off in Detroit. Is he this good' date=' or is Detroit that bad?[/quote']

 

A little of both. I think Rodgers is the real deal. Green Bay will be fine this season without the OMGGRATESTQBEVR Favre.

[ORS]

So, Denver looks pretty legit. I'm not watching, but I am following online. It appears as if Marshall has gotten under Cromartie's skin. He's torching him and gotten him to commit 30 yds in penalties on top of it.

[CrespoBlows]

Matt Ryan is getting his cherry popped by the Bucs.

 

1/10 2 INT's.

[TheKilo]

Yeah, I think Rodgers is a legit QB and it'll be refreshing to watch someone who actually plays smart in the pocket.

 

Color me very optimistic about what I've seen from Rodgers.

[CrespoBlows]

Jay Cutler looks like he's becoming a good QB. I like what I've seen from J.T. O'Sullivan from San Francisco.

[CrespoBlows]

Darren Sproles takes a swing pass for 66 yards. 38-31 Chargers.

[ORS]

Yeah, I may have spoke too soon about Denver's legitimacy. They look more than capable with the ball, but they can't stop the Chargers today.

[ORS]

Wow, Seattle loses 13 yards on 2nd and 3rd down, having to punt from deep in their own end on 4th and 23. SF gets the ball on the Seattle 49 with a minute and change left, score knotted at 30.

[ORS]

No no no no good, Nedney. OT in Seattle.

[TheKilo]

Denver 1 yard out from a tie in SD.

[TheKilo]

Seattle is in trouble with their severe lack of skill players, Arizona the team to beat?

[CrespoBlows]

San Diego is getting f***ed over by the refs.

[redsoxrules]

Wow, I cant beleive they went for 2 there

[a700hitter]

What channel is the Steelers game on?

[ORS]

NBC
