Art Sandusky Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 As someone who left the house when it was 24-7 Denver, what's this "That's the end of the game" stuff?
CanadianChris Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 As someone who left the house when it was 24-7 Denver, what's this "That's the end of the game" stuff? Plummer was sacked and fumbled the ball with about 15 seconds left. It was eventually recovered by the Broncos, but the ball stayed in bounds, so the clock kept running, and ran out before another play could be run. I think the officials conferred to confirm that the ball stayed in bounds, which led to the ref announcing, "That's the end of the game." In my initial pass through this post, I wrote, "Plummer was sucked." I think that's no less accurate.
Kahran Ramsus Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Continuing the injury parade this weekend, Aaron Rodgers is out for the season with a broken foot.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Brett Favre's bones were replaced with adamantium, much like Wolverine of the X-Men.
snuffbox Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 That is as plausible an explanation as any other.
Guest Princess Leena Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 It's amazing that Favre never gets injured... it's not like he rarely gets sacked like a Manning or Marino, or shows great care in protecting himself. And he supposedly didn't duck out of painkiller rehab like Kurt Angle.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 I would just like to note that in spite of everything that is wrong with Monday Night Football's presentation, they have talked more about the Bears during the first three minutes of Giants-Jaguars than Joe Buck did during the entirety of Bears-Jets.
Guest Paul Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 The Giants are already worrying me on both sides of the ball.
Guest Paul Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 I hear The Undertaker's old theme is being played in Jacksonville.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Wouldn't that be wrong too? Well, it consisted of "The Bears beat the Giants in New York, and they'll have to recover from that." Sure beats Joe Buck just talking about all things New York Jets for an hour, featuring "Eric Mangini is a really nice guy, and he's gotten this far by being a nice guy, and sometimes that could be good and sometimes bad in life," and deciding that he doesn't like instant replay because the Bears got a call. I didn't think his St. Louis bias would extend to the Chicago Bears, but hey, there it was. No wait, he said Rex Grossman was a bad quarterback, so that related to the Bears, I guess.
mike546 Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 I miss Osi and Straham. Absolutley no pressure on Garrard.
Brett Favre Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Grossman really isn't that good though, and that could have been a fumble.
naiwf Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 It's a shame the Giants probably won't make the playoffs this year at this rate. They can't win on national TV.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Grossman really isn't that good though, and that could have been a fumble. He's no Peyton Manning, but he's been a big part of why the Bears have scored more points than anyone but the Chargers.
mike546 Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Plaxico Burress is a big pussy. He seriously needs to grow up, and stop being such a lazy piece of crap.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 It's a shame the Giants probably won't make the playoffs this year at this rate. They can't win on national TV. Who would make the playoffs instead? Dallas in the division spot, Carolina and San Francisco as the wild cards? They'll get by.

You don't really think any other team besides the "winner" is coming out of the West, do you?
Guest Paul Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Plaxico finally shows up to play ball. Not to mention how fuckin' lucky they got on Eli's fucking fumble.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Shouldnt Burress have been penalized there for flopping on the ground like a 5 year old?
devo Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Yes. For the principle of the thing if nothing else.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Aw, I missed Jigga/Hova/Jay-Z in the booth?
randomguy Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Shockey has such great hands, why don't they throw to him more?

Who would make the playoffs instead? Dallas in the division spot, Carolina and San Francisco as the wild cards? They'll get by. Dallas wins the division, and the Giants end up having to go down to week 17 to try and fight off the New Orleans/Carolina/Atlanta losers and San Francisco. Their saving grace was McNabb going down or the Eagles would be in the mix too. From potentially taking the # 1 seed in the NFC last week to now being tied for 6th with two straight stinkers isn't good. The more I look at him, the more I realize that Eli isn't a franchise QB. These officials suck almost as much as the guys who decided to draft Rivers and trade him plus extras for Eli.
devo Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 Eli Manning's really not very good, is he?
randomguy Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 But, but...Eli is a Manning! A Manning I say!

strummer Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 The big saving grace for the Giants is that they are 3-0 in their division. The way they are playing now, that could become a moot point Edit: Damn you Czech for pointing out my spelling errors!!!
