2007 NFL Thread

[bored]

I watched the KC game from a sports bar, and other screens had Green Bay/San Diego (go Brett!) and Philly/Detroit. The Philly throwbacks looked TERRIBLE.

[Fran]

You're a dumbass for putting their dumbass in your sig..... dumbass. :rolleyes:

So I'm a dumbass for being a fan through the rough times? :huh:

Your team lost by 21 today also :dry: I said it all along, Niners aren't ready. Next year is their time.

:up:

I wouldn't say they suck ass, completely. Their defense was rock solid, they just simply wore out by the 4th quarter. Bulger and the passing game let St. Louis down today. They didn't take a single shot down the field.

I didn't get to watch the game at all, so thanks for filling me in. How did Garcia and the gang do?

[Venom'sDad]

What ever dude, i'm not trying to get in a name calling dual with you.... it's really uncall for. :o

[Cmill216]

I didn't get to watch the game at all, so thanks for filling me in. How did Garcia and the gang do?

The Rams defense pretty much shut down the Bucs passing game. Garcia only had around 120 yds, but with no picks.

It was 3-0 at the half. Both defenses were stepping it up. The Rams offense was grinding it out with Jackson, but Wilkins missed a field goal.

Eventually in the second half, Tampa's offense got the running game going and marched down the field, thanks in large part to great returns by Mark Jones. The Rams passing attack was never really a factor because the Bucs consistently kept two safeties deep. Bulger threw a pick in the end zone (and two more picks in the game), and the Bucs started ripping off large runs on the Rams D in the 4th.

Neither team really made a ton of splash plays on offense, but the Bucs physically dominated St. Louis in the 2nd half, and eventually pulled away.

[Showtime]

Cream of the crop continues to rise to the top, New England Patriots, Colts, and of course the Steelers, while the pretenders keep on pretending, Saints and Chargers.

I tip my hat to the Texans. They went toe-to-toe with Indy without their best offensive weapon. Scary.

Jesus... we need to focus on defense next year for free agency.

[Showtime]

You're a dumbass for putting their dumbass in your sig..... dumbass. :rolleyes:

Hey VD, let's not get too excited about the 49ers, sure they are playing fantastic but they are still not better than any of the prime teams in the AFC at this point. The NFC is like AAA baseball.

[Fran]

He's a 49ers fan...

[Cmill216]

Jesus... we need to focus on defense next year for free agency.

But, it wasn't really their fault. They simply got gassed in that Tampa heat, and their offense wasn't helping them.

[Showtime]

Sorry mistype.

[Fran]

But, it wasn't really their fault. They simply got gassed in that Tampa heat, and their offense wasn't helping them.

Yeah, I know that weather down there definitely has an influence. It's just, they've lost so many games due to defense. Not one of the best around. Steve Smith tore them up in the first week, did alright against SF. We just need to get stronger and faster. I just remember Vick tearing the Rams apart in the 2004 (?) NFC playoffs.

[Showtime]

Those Redskins uniforms are badass.

I made fun of the TO thing with competative banter.... nothing more than that. You didn't have to go public with your insults. I have no beef with you.... I don't know why you detest me so..... we rarely post to each other. :huh:

Holy shat, I remember that game. Falcons laid 300 yards rushing in that one. :wow:

But for them right now, they're just not clicking. You can't go on the road and miss two field goals (one of which ended an 8 minute drive), throw a pick in the end zone, and expect to win football games.

The Eagles ones were AWFUL.

They were pretty bad. Not sure why they didn't wear the classic green ones.

Because the classic green ones weren't the Eagles' first jerseys.

But I still would've preferred it; much better to show everyone the Eagles the way everyone's known them for the past 73 years than wear some pre-WW2 ugliness. :o

Go Bucs!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry fran

[Venom'sDad]

Wow.... just wow Cincy D is just ridiculas

[Ben Urich]

Raiders block the field goal! :wow:

[Fran]

Jason Campbell is improving so much this year. I enjoy watching the kid.

Oh man, game over. Portis tripped at the 3. :csad:

[Mister J]

I cannot believe Washington pissed the game away like that.

[Fran]

They rushed it! Had about 10 more seconds to get in the line and actually come up with a play. Great D by the Giants in the second half, like a different team! :eek:

[Poeman]

they shouldnt have spiked the ball on 1st and goal ... THEY HAD 45 seconds then!!!

[dr venture]

It seems Barrett Ruud had a good game today

[Johnny Blaze]

W00t! Awesome job today by my Bucs. The O-line was just manhandling the Lambs D the entire second half. Ernest Graham had like 12 yards a carry average and 2 TDs against them and was running with some determination. Rookie guard Aaron Sears looked really good in finishing his blocks.
The pass blocking still leaves something to be desired, though Petigout (Sp?) played a good game.

The D was, once again, impressive. Aside from a few big runs, they did a good job keeping the explosive Jackson in check. If Barrett Ruud keeps playing at this level he's definitely a lock for the Pro Bowl and team Defensive MVP.

Should've been 31-3 though. If Kevin Carter hadn't lined up in the neutral zone Phillip Buchanon would've had a defensive TD off of the Isaac Bruce fumble when Bruce was leveled by Jermaine Phillips.

Should be a good showdown next week up in Carolina. The Bucs could really get an early jump in the division with the win against the Kitty Cats. :up:

[Fran]

^ :cmad::csad:

Good show, Johnny. :up:

[Johnny Blaze]

^ :cmad::csad:

Good show, Johnny. :up:

I figured it would've been closer, but Bulger just looks off his game. I don't know what's wrong with him. He had some open receivers during the game that he missed. Definitely need to start leaning on Jackson more to take some pressure off of Marc.

[Venom'sDad]

Well good games today... have a good week everbody... C-ya same time next week... OK ;)

[Unthinkable]

Thank the lord that I can put away my hope in the Lions. Wins over the Vikings and Oakland shouldn't make that much hype. Can't wait till the draft. :up

A better question: why the hell do they keep sucking off the NFC East? :huh:

Eagles/Giants is next week's SNF game. We had the Cowboys today, the Eagles and Redskins on MNF last week, and the Giants and Cowboys on SNF two weeks ago.

[Addendum]

NBC doesn't have a hand in the schedules until later in the season.

[Cmill216]

I don't really care who's responsible, I'm just sick of seeing these teams get all of the broadcast love. And then Fox puts Buck and Aikman, their #1 team, on essentially all of the NFC East games. They'll be at St. Louis/Dallas. Meanwhile the Bucs and Panthers will battle it out for first place in the South with some scrubby ass broadcast team. WTF? :down

[Fran]

Whoohoo! Grossman picked off! :up:

The teams made the schedules up during the off-season. If you don't like the coverage that Fox has, don't watch or better yet, send your complaints to them where they act like they give a damn

WOW! Huge block by (former Ram :up:) Adam Archuleta. Remains 3-3.

:cmad::cmad::cmad::cmad::cmad::cmad::cmad:

No it was blocked by Israel Idonje, which I think is his 2nd or 3rd this year already. Archuleta recovered it.

And NBC, stop with the ****ing Spanish graphics. If I want to see how the Bears team name is spelled out in Spanish, I'll switch it to Telemundo.

My bad, but still, Archuleta got it.

I am smiling today. Not only did my Chiefs finally get a win, but they took down my smug roommate's Vikings. As expected, Jared Allen, having served his suspension, rode in on a white horse and slew Minnesota's offensive line with his sword of awesomness.

Hells ya...

There is nothing like Arrowhead on the first home game or any home game for that matter, 3 hours before the game the parking lot was full with tailgaters. So much good food. And, needless to say inside Arrowhead was nuts, so freaking loud. I have absolutely no voice left.

The game itself was good, man our 'D' played tough, other than that first drive. Ty Law looked horrible on that TD run. And, our Offense leaves a lot to be desired. Mike Solari just might be the worst OC in the league. Though Bowe played awesome and TD catch was nuts, I was in that endzone on the Club level.

Overall, I'm just glad we won and hopefully we can keep the Chargers in a tailspin next week.

And, how about them Packers!!! Brett Farve is having a great farewell tour. I just got home, so I haven't seen the highlights. I can't believe they beat the Chargers. Go Pack!!

Can't wait for the Chiefs v Packers game at Arrowhead!!

Oh my lord. What the hell is up with these throwback uniforms that are granny-getting-out-of-the-tub ugly. Washington in all yellow..the Eagles looking like something out of Wacky Land...the Steelers yellow helmets last week. *vomit*

Shoot me.

[Excel]

Over preformers and under preformers (in terms of expectations)

Overpreformers:
Dallas (NFC): looked great in every game thus far
Green Bay (NFC): Defense looks superb
Houston (AFC): Losing by just 6 to the Colts; with Ahman Green & Andre Johnson in, I think they would have won.
Pittsburg (AFC): very balanced and physical team; Roethlisberger is still over rated; but with a fledgling superstar in Santonio Holmes and Willie Parker at HB, your good to go.

Underpreformers:
New Orleans (NFC): Bush needs to get ti going before overrated talk starts
Chicago (NFC): Rex needs to focus; he has ADH.
St. Louis (NFC): Eh...Tampa Bay is better and whenever Jackson and Buldger get going theyll get better.
Cincinati (AFC): Defense is atrocious; wont even finish .500 this year.


Dont worry about SAN DIEGO; they lost to 2 football teams who have been playing great football thus far; I am sure theyll improve; though LT needs to learn *****ing out your quarterback like your a 15 year old chick isnt showcasing leadership.

[cookiva]

But San Diego beat Chicago (who is looking like chicago of 10 years ago) by only 11. Their vaunted offense is not preforming, and their defense is looking porous. Now, I thought they would be the 3rd best in the AFC, but they gotta preform better than this!


Also, who is seeing a Cowboys vs Patriots/Colts/Steelers in the Super Bowl? Cowboys are easily the best in the NFC right now, hands down.

[Advanced Dark]

The Top 4:

Patriots
Steelers
Cowboys
Colts

BTW toldya guys that Philly would wake up this week. :)

[cookiva]

Did Robbie Gould's single pass look better than Grossman?

Im still at work, and would like to know.

[The_Mystery]

If the Colts play like they did against the Pats like they did the Texans today, it will be a long night when they meet the Brady Bunch.

If Cowboys are "easily" best in NFC, Patriots are in a different universe compared to the rest of AFC. They have the leagues BEST DEFENSE and they have yet to add SEYMOUR and HARRISON; and have one of the top 2 offenses in game.

The NFC has some teams that are gonna go pretty far. Tampa Bay's defense looks great, and I know McNabb is gonna get Phily to the playoffs. Those 3 and Green bay are the only teams capible of beating Indianapolis or Pittsberg; but none can touch New England right now. Barring no injuries; they are virtually unbeatable.

[Jerry!]

Man that Rex Grossman press conference was painful. Thats the least I can say about it. Right now I'm not sure if he is going to be benched. They have a few games against their division coming up, I think those are his final chances if this wasn't. It was largely his fault, but not only his fault.

Gulp... :csad:

[Jerry!]

What did he say. Did he cry.

He just looked...lost. I don't think he was about to break down, but his voice was a little trembly. Its tough, because I can understand how his mistakes were made, and a lot of them from people just looking in to criticize don't want to see that the blame shouldn't fall squarely on him. I actually agree with Al Michaels on one thing, there are no real answers after Grossman. No real long term answers. This team has the parts to win right now and maybe for a few years down the road, but to start over at the most important position is going to make it all the harder.

I told people last season that I thought Romo was going to be productive for a long time. Logically, I think he's a good QB. Yet he hasn't won any big games yet and it seems that every other TV segment is about him.

Well its pretty much what I had tried explaining to you in the past. There really isn't going to be much of a change. Its not going to be a magical turn around overnight. Its like when the Bears fans were rallying for years to implement the shotgun. Now that its in the "magical" shotgun has done squat.

[Scar Predator]

So did Chicago win, or did Lessy Rexxy f-up again?

It was close until the 4th quarter, I believe. Then Rex started acting like himself again.

[XtromaniaK]

It was 20-10 (or was it 27-10?) until the 4th quarter. At which point, Dallas kicked some major arse. I do find it funny how the teams that sucked last year are doing so great, and the teams that did well are doing so badly. (With the Colts and Pats being the exceptions).

I'm not sure the Pack is that good yet but I'd prefer them to be there over Jerrah's thugs.

I meant that as kind of a joke, given it's the only reason Brett is still playing..he thinks he's gonna win another Lombardi trophy.

I seriously doubt it but the NFC is weak so it's not out of the question that they could get there. However, beating a team like NE, Pitt or Indy? I don't see it.

Lemme tell you, those Bear fans are HOT. I saw a Cowboy fan get spit on while I was there. Don't get me wrong. A few Cowboy fans were getting unruly, but they didn't deserve to be spit on.

Thank goodness, I acted like I'd been there before.


A guy two rows in front of me had a Griese jersey and was waving it around.

All and all, I had a GREAT time. Go Cowboys.

What is the knock on Brian Greise??? This guy is a experienced vet! He did very well at one time. The Bears cannot keep putting their defense out there over and over, just because the offense can't move the ball.

Lovie needs to pull the trigger.......NOW!! They held the Cowboys to just 3 points for the longest! They just got tired!!

[DeaDheaD]

Well, I'm done with Rex now.

[Alex The Great]

who thinks the PATS will win the superbowl this season?

[Excel]

Everyone. IF they stay healthy; good luck containing...

-randy moss-403 yards, 5 touchdowns in 3 games
-donte stallworth-averaging about 25 yards a catch
-wes welker-180 yards after 3 games
-maroney-averaging 5.3 yards per carry past 2 games

and then on defense theyre already the best and will only add seymour and harrison.

I was at the bar drinking off the Charger loss watching the skins/giants.

The exact moment that happened the wheels came off the Redskins game.

[Spider-Fan]

It is official...I want Crennel fired. If he won't get the team hyped and into games against lesser teams they should beat, he has no business being a coach. We play well (normally) against good teams, but lose to all the crap teams we play. That is wrong, and he needs to go.

As I said, New England can hire him as a coach in some capacity, we love him over here.

Or will be on the IR...................put there by his own team....................................during walk throughs on Friday.

HALL BEAT UP IN FALCONS LOCKER ROOM?

There are uncorroborated rumors making the rounds that Falcons cornerback DeAngelo Hall was beat up, presumably by one or more teammates, following a Falcons loss that was fueled in part by Hall's inability to control his emotions.

After being flagged for a total of 67 yards on a second-half drive that the Panthers used to tie the game, Hall got into a sideline confrontation with coach Bobby Petrino.

We don't know for sure whether Hall was indeed roughed up or otherwise accosted by teammates after the game, but it wouldn't surprise us to find out that the rumor is true. Hall is a brash and outspoken member of the organization, and his Virginia Tech ties to Mike Vick probably have prompted some in the locker room to view him differently in the wake of Vick's legal troubles. Today's actions would have potentially been enough to get a frustrated Falcon to convert hostile feelings toward Hall into action.

Only 2 division wins and the team's record the past two seasons (and the fact we lose to teams we are better than) says that is definately certain. And the fact we are looking at probably another 4-12 season speaks volumes also.

I don't think their schedule is soft, I think it just looks that way considering the amount of talent on the team and they way they have been playing. Hell, the Eagles and Ravens might give the Pats a good run for their money. By the way, Belichiek doesn't phone in any games. Last year, Brady played almost the entire last game of the regular season. If the Pats go undefeated for 14 games, you know he's gonna want to put those last two away and make history.
