2008 NFL Season

Donut hound Lendale White just broke off an 80 yd TD vs. KC for his 3rd of the day. Of course this happens in the week I'm playing SOTKS' date=' who has him on his FFB team. Typical.[/quote']

 

It legitimately seems like this happens to you every week.

[Cocos Disciples]

Lindell FG makes it 23-14 with less than 4 minutes left, all but locking it up for the Bills.

[msubulldogs21]

Mewelde Moore just scored his third TD of the game at Cincy. Glad I picked him up a few weeks ago when Willie Parker went down. He's been awesome.

Which Bills player guaranteed that his team would make the playoffs? Looking pretty good right now.

Bills are a good team, but their schedule is a BREEZE. That has a lot to do with them ending up in the playoffs.

Err, I honestly don't know. Who?

But still. At a time when Tom Brady wasn't injured (and the Patriots having an EASIER schedule, on paper, than the Bills) and the Jets just acquiring Brett Favre, it was a bold statement. Especially with, at the time, what looked to be a very strong AFC.

 

A lot of lucky s*** has happened to make him look smart, but the point remains.

 

They still have to get there though.

Oh, definitely. It was a bold statement alright. I don't even remember that happening, but I'll take your word for it. If Buffalo missed the playoffs that would be a serious choke job.

Donte Whitner.

 

Linky.

[YanksHater213]

this is slowly but surely week by week becoming my new catchphrase:

 

lol @ detroit

[Cocos Disciples]

Donte Whitner.

 

Linky.

 

Wise man.

[Cocos Disciples]

Jets-Raiders getting down to the wire. Jets have the ball deep in their own territory down a FG with 1:15 left. Favre just avoided a safety. Hope Oakland can hang on.

[Cocos Disciples]

Bad call by Stuckey not going out of bounds there. :45 left...

[Cocos Disciples]

WOW, Brett Favre has balls. 12 seconds left, Favre got it to within a 52 yd field goal for Feely. One more play before the FG.

[Cocos Disciples]

And once again, freezing the kicker comes back to bite the coach. FG missed but its nullified.

 

EDIT: HAHAHAHA. As much as I don't like the Jets, I hate freezing the kicker. Maybe it'll stop now. Going to OT..

That was hilarious. You really don't freeze NFL kickers. Those guys are too good to begin with.

[Cocos Disciples]

I don't even know who I'm rooting for here. I hate the Jets and Favre, and I hate Al Davis.

 

EDIT: I decided I'm rooting for no tie.

[msubulldogs21]

I hope they tie. I think it's very possible at this point.

[msubulldogs21]

And as I type that, the Raiders get down to around the 35. Anything across midfield is in Janikowski's range.

[Cocos Disciples]

Wow, 57 yarder by Janikowski wins it. He's got a boot. Glad they didn't tie.

[msubulldogs21]

Wow' date=' 57 yarder by Janikowski wins it. He's got a boot. Glad they didn't tie.[/quote']

 

He can boom it. Oakland's offense is so bad, if they ever get across mid-field they should just give him a shot at the FG every time. Then again they don't make it across the 50 all that often...

Bills had one of the toughest schedules last year and went 7-9. But now they are doing what a good team should do. Beat up on the lesser teams.

 

Yeah we may have lost to the Cardinals but I am quite alright with that considering the Cards will win their division. Not to mention we did just beat the Offensiverly charged Chargers with our best DL (Schobel) and best CB (McGee) on the sidelines with injuries.

 

Now with Maroney on the IR, the Bills should sweep the Pats. Bills are def going into the playoffs FINALLY

 

You just gotta BILLieve baby. I BILLieve.

I agree that the Bills are for real and have done a great job thus far, but let's not get too carried away......it's still early.

[msubulldogs21]

AHHHHH!!!

 

I freaking hate losing to the Cowboys. That was a tough one today.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

I was reduced to scoreboard watching... who's responsible for the loss, out of curiousity?

Hard to say, but probably not capitalizing in Dallas territory was the main thing. We didn't necessarily play bad - the Dallas D just stepped up big time. What really hurt us was having to settle for 2 FG's in the 1st half rather than getting a TD. I was thinking that at the time and it came back to bite us. Our D was really good once agian. The key play of the game came with about 40 seconds to go in the 1st half. We had Dallas stopped on a 3rd down play, but Ronde Barber horsecollared Marion Barber which gave them a 1st down keeping the drive alive... and they went on to score a TD right before the half which was the difference in the game. Frustrating as all hell. We were down on their 20 with about 15 seconds to go but ran out of downs. Jeff Garcia did a nice job today. He made quite a few plays out of what looked like nothing. We're a much better team with him at QB. Tough loss, but I still think the Bucs are a top 6 or so team in the NFL.

The Gmen just showed that they are the best team in football. The Steelers were dominated and it took 2 broken plays for them to make this thing look close. 4 red zone opps by the giants to none by the Steelers with Ben hitting the dirt half the time he dropped back was impressive. Spagnuolo should get a massive raise and a guarantee of the head coach job when Coughlin retires. His schemes were awesome and the beasts on the front line were money

[yankee20715]

Bills looked f***ing horrible today. Hopefully its a wakeup call to them to get there s*** together and mop the Ralph Wilson Stadium with teh Jets next week.

I thought they were done for when Umenyiora got hurt... :dunno:

 

No, wait... that was you that thought that.

 

Just f***ing with ya.

Who would have thought that the Patriots would be putting this much pressure on the young upstarts from upstate NY?
