Guest sek69 Report post Posted December 26, 2004 If you call the Steelers' office, you might get a start next week vs Buffalo. Cowher's not going to start anyone even remotely banged up, so it's probably going to look like a preseason game next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's sad is with the state of the NFC 5-11 for the Giants won't guarantee San Diego a high draft pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2004 Man, that Colts/Chargers game today was possibly the game of the year. The Colts finally woke the fuck up in the 4th quarter with the Rhodes kickoff return and then finally the 49th TD with a minute left. My brother and I were joking that Drew Brees just HAD to throw an INT in the game, and the later he delayed the inevitable, the worse it would be. And sure enough he threw it on their last possession, though I dunno if it really hurt them all that bad. Besides, there would have been something so wrong with breaking the all time TD record in a loss to the Chargers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2004 And the 49ers are now on the clock. 41-0, perfect way to go out in front of the home fans this season. The York Family is officially now the new Bidwell Family of the NFL. I'm so not looking forward to making the playoffs twice in the next 50 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Failed Mascot Report post Posted December 26, 2004 I'm actually hoping the Bills win next week and the Broncos lose. Reasons being 1. I can't stand Mike Shannahan and his career ending O-Line. 2. That would place 3 AFC East teams into the playoffs. 3. I want there to be a chance for Bledsoe to get picked apart at The Razor again.

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 I'd like to say congrats to Willis McGahee. He didn't start the first 4 weeks...and also didn't start week 6 (because someone foolishly thought Travis Henry should be the starter)... and today he crossed 1,000 yards and has 11 TDs. Add in Lee Evans rookie season with 9 TDs and more clutch catches than you can shake a stick at...and the future is looking bright. Now...must find way to poison the food of the Jets and Broncos.

MrRant 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 Well they clinched a playoff birth... and can get at least home field if St. Louis loses any of their next two games. Luckily they play Monday against the Eagles and unfortunately I'll have to root for the Eagles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 Well...there lies the problem. Look at the AFC. Just look at the teams that AREN'T going to the playoffs this year. Baltimore, Jacksonville, Cincinnati, Houston and one of the Broncos, Jets and Bills. Which of those teams doesn't feel pretty good about next year? There are more bad teams in the NFC West than there are in the entire AFC. AND The Dolphins just beat the Patriots last week. AFC is going to be tough for a while.

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 The Ravens supposedly can still make the playoffs if they win and the Bills and Broncos lose. They would all finish 9-7 and The Ravens have the tiebreaker over the Bills because they beat them, and they'd probably have the tiebreaker with the Broncos based on Strength of Victory (currently .496 to .418, although Im sure that the Ravens beating the Dolphins would lower that, but I dont know by how much). I think the Jaguars need to lose too, but Im not sure. Not that I actually want to see the Ravens in the playoffs..because I know for sure they'll get bounced in the first round and Id rather be spared the disapointment of them losing in the Wild Card round.

MrRant 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 I agree that the NFC West has been pretty sub par (Especially Seattle). But if you look at the #'s Seattle has like the #6 offense in the NFL. Course they have like the 23rd D but I think most of that could be considered injury related (loosing Winstrom really hurt and Chad Brown was out for so long).

Gert T 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 As hot as the Bills have been lately, I don't know how many guys I want to sit if I am Pittsburgh. Eliminate them when you have a chance. BPS, great point about the AFC teams that didn't make the playoffs, I am a Bengals fan and am confident about them stepping up, but all of these teams will be looking to make the leap. I'll be rooting for you guys next week, and for Lee Evans, he's a stud, and part of a truly great rookie WR corp that could all legitamately hold a claim ot Offensive Rookie of the Year (Evans-Clayton-Colbert) if there wasn't some guy name Ben R. for the Steelers.
