MFer Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 God, the Lions are awful (especially the 2nd half of the season). How they got to 7 wins with this defense is beyond me. This loss will put Matt Millen's record as GM at 31-81.
Slayer Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Yes, the affairs of dead moose rapers from Regina are very important to me
Mike wanna be Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Keep kicking to Hester, Payton. Somebody's got to figure out how to tackle him and you'll never do it kicking it out of bounds.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 I think Wolfe's biggest size-related problem is going to be pass protection. He's looked pretty iffy thus far, and good linebackers are too athletic to just cut block.
Guest My Pal, the Tortoise Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 So, looks like New Orleans won't get rebuilt for another year. I don't think they're pulling this one off. Besides, who cares about New Orleans? Sean Taylor died.
snuffbox Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Christ, enough with the "nugget alert" bullshit.
Guest My Pal, the Tortoise Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Looks like the Browns are going to get the win, so are they in no matter what the Titans do, or do they still need a Titans loss? Jacksonville must've taken the game off because they lost to the Texans by a lot. Lovie Smith is the new Mike Tice.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 It's totally dependent on Tennessee. Titans win and they're in; lose and they're out. The Browns could've lost today and still made it.
Guest My Pal, the Tortoise Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 I'm really shocked that Lovie got that challenge. Also, that safety call was kinda bullshit, but hey, two points, neat. We had a safety in last year's New Orleans game as well. Suffice to say that this was one disappointing Bears season. Not a lot to take from this. I like what we've seen from Greg Olsen, Garrett Wolfe, Devin Hester, and even Kyle Orton and Other Adrian Peterson, but there's so much broken with this team. I think we saw Jerry Angelo cede some of his power to Lovie Smith as a reward, letting Lovie fire Rivera and bring in Babich, as well as Archuleta, "his guy." The results of those moves mean that we'll probably see Angelo take that power back. Ron Turner is a dead duck, and I dont like Babich's odds either. Brian Griese is traded away for whatever we can get, and now I'm seriously doubting that Rex Grossman gets that one-year "we-swear-we-didn't-make-a-bad-draft-pick" extension now, with a season of both injury AND ineffectiveness. The running back situation is seriously worrisome, however, as is the arthritic old offensive line.
Zetterberg is God Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Buffalo finishes with a 7-9 record for the second year in a row. It could have been a lot worse but they probably should have had at least two more wins. Lynch is looking a solid pro already even if his physical style will probably wear him out. Edwards looked solid at times but at others he looked extremely mediocre. Same thing with the offensive line. Hopefully a new offensive coordinator will help with some of these problems. The defense was shoddy pretty much all year long but with so many starters on the IR it was probably to be expected (not that the defense with the starters is that much better anyway). Next year should be interesting for this team.
fazzle Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 So am I one of the few people who has a doubleheader on both stations today? I had Carolina/TB and Jax/Houston at 1, and have Dallas/Washington and Pittsburgh/Baltimore at 4.
strummer Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 I have to agree with you Czech that Dick Stockton seems to be openly rooting against the Bears for some reason. I think this is the first Bears game I've seen him announce this year and it's obvious.
CanadianChris Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Houston finishes at .500 for the first time ever. They could be a real up-and-coming team if not for the division they're stuck in.

I had Carolina/TB and Jax/Houston at 1, and have Dallas/Washington and Pittsburgh/Baltimore at 4. This is a rare week when both networks have doubleheaders, as I just found out.

I think this is the first Bears game I've seen him announce this year and it's obvious. Joe Buck is worse in his anti-Chicago bias, but that's understandable, because he's a St. Louis guy. I know nothing of Dick Stockton's local ties because he doesn't wear them on his sleeve like Joe, who also nurses a NY Giants man-crush. Still, Dick is pretty bad when it comes to covering our teams, whether it's the obvious rooting against, or sheer Adolfo Soriano/Angel Pecan incompetence.

When I first saw it, I thought it was just some week 17 thing, but then everyone else started talking about just having one second game, so I got confused.
CanadianChris Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Wow, Romo is starting. That really surprises me.
snuffbox Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 I'm getting Pitt-Baltimore on CBS rather than the Vikings-Chargers game. No sense is made.
sfaJack Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 If I must endure the Patriots in the Super Bowl I better not also have to endure the Cowboys with Tony Romo. That is pretty much the epitome of a heel vs. heel matchup. At least with NE vs. GB there would be the cool "Can Favre win one more big one and beat an invincible juggernaut?" storyline. And to be honest, we already know that NE will crush the Cowboys. I could stomach the Colts vs. Cowboys, Patriots vs. Packers, Colts vs. Packers....but please not Patriots vs. Cowboys. It feels bizarre saying this since I've never really hated the Cowboys, but I think this year that they are wildly lucky and Romo is insanely overrated. The Patriots may have had some breaks, but at least have won with their own skills for the most part. I've quite literally seen Buffalo and Detroit hand Dallas games. The Cowboys are basically a slightly more talented version of the Bears with Rex Grossman. You're an idiot.
snuffbox Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Will this thread be the end of cabbageboy?
Hawk 34 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 He'll survive just like The Kentucky Wildcats did in the early 1990's.
KingPK Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 With logic like "winning every game is more of a hinderance to success than losing one or two", how can it not be?
snuffbox Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 How will we know what teams are going to win without cabbageboy's brilliant (and never just going with the favored team in every single instence) predictions?
Richard Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 I'm getting Pitt-Baltimore on CBS rather than the Vikings-Chargers game. No sense is made. The Vikings-Chargers game was several weeks ago.
snuffbox Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Chargers, Broncos, whatever. If I could see the game I would have gotten it right.
sfaJack Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Inspired effort from the Cowboys today. I think I'm gonna go grocery shopping during the second half. Or maybe cabbageboy was right all along and they've just been really lucky this whole time...
Slayer Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Looking more and more like we're heading to the STMPE, which would make the NFC a total wash for me as there's not a single team I can get behind
The Niggardly King Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 Man oh man... like I've said before Chargers are winning the Super Bowl this year. We're going to get the Pittsburgh path, of hopefully someone taking out the Pats for us... too bad there is no Rat magic since the Broncs fucking suck. He seems to have one of those weird things of owning the Pats and Belercheck ...Come on Ravens, do something right for once this fucking year and put the Steelers away.
The Niggardly King Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 Oh god, Football Night in America is going to be horrible. This year has made me hate Chris Colonsworth, and he used to be one of the good ones.
