NFL 2011, Part 1

[speedracer]

Patriots needed to let Buffalo score there. Dammit.

 

[LemonMelon]

Why doesn't Buffalo just kneel on it and kick the FG at this point? They've got this locked up.

EDIT: Nevermind.

EDIT #2: The slow motion zoom-in on the chip shot FG was a bit sad.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Clearly the Dolphins have donated their winning power to the Buffalo Bills to combine powers to take down the AFC East.

 

[Imperor]

Well, they were the only thing I missed on a wacky six team parlay, so thanks for that.

Pats may want to get a running back ... just sayin'

DanJarvus Green-Ridley did fine today (26/108). The Pats just didn't, you know, actually run the ball enough.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Should probably run the ball when up 21 points

Belichick, like most geniuses eventually do, is losing his mind.

 

[LemonMelon]

The Packers' secondary isn't very good at all.

Have I made this post three weeks in a row now?

Bears: 17 passes, 6 rushes.

Mike Martz is like Steve Spurrier with a Super Bowl appearance. Which just gives his insanity a larger palette.

Fun first half.

Jermichael Finley is a beast.

Would have liked to see the Shoulder Shrugger punch it in for 6 points there instead of 3, but I'll take it. Couple of nice drives.

I'd like to have a romantic, or even just platonic, relationship with Devin Hester.

Did I mention that the giants beat the eagles today in philly? Yea, the giants beat the eagles today in philly.

Anyone else notice that the terrible quarterback of the new york jets is called san-CHEZ during Hispanic heritage month, but called SAN-chez every other month of the year?

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Things just ain't makin sense in the NFL right now.


Except for the Dolphins losing. That makes a lot of sense.

You'd appreciate his genius more if he had hall-of-famers at QB, RB, WR and LT.

His relationship with QBs fascinates me. He considers them the only position worth his time, yet he tries his hardest to get them all killed.

 

[speedracer]

Holy cow, Brandon Meriweather hit a guy. And didn't get flagged for it.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

That Johnny Knox dropped ball was not my favorite thing.

To be fair, catching a ball with one's facemask is extremely difficult.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

If he wasn't wearing the helmet, he could have caught it in his mouth. That would have been awesome.

 

[LemonMelon]

Time to bump the Urlacher appreciation thread. Holy fuck.

 

[Got Philk?]

Can Urlacher play wide receiver too?

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I think they actually did line him out wide a few times when he was at New Mexico.

That was many years ago, though.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Dev Hes and John Knox just dicked the living fuck out of the entire Packers special teams, and a flag is thrown for absolutely no reason?

Suck my cock, NFL.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Can Urlacher play wide receiver too?

This is conflicting in my head but I seem to be recalling Jason Taylor snuck in on an offensive play once upon a time...

But that wouldn't make any sense, would it?

 

[bono_212]

Nothing today made sense to me. What an awesomely frustrating day of foosball.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Giants win, jets lose, vick is hurt and whining, happy days are here again.

Oh, I know Urlacher legally can do it...Mike Vrabel used to do it all the time. I was more asking if the Bears would give it a shot after he made that nice catch.

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

His relationship with QBs fascinates me. He considers them the only position worth his time, yet he tries his hardest to get them all killed.

Seems like his approach fizzles out after a season or two, unless his offense is stacked with talent. He made Detroit look a lot better than they were for a while in 07, but that didn't last very long.

The Bears 13 rushing yards was their lowest since 1952, and 11 of those were by Cutler toward the end of the game. At least they weren't a bad a James Starks - what happened there?

 

[PhilsFan]

It really, really sucks to hate your franchise player. I thought I was done with this shit after the McNabb trade, that I'd finally get a guy I liked in Kolb. But no. Fuck.

 

[LemonMelon]

It was a real drag having McNabb as the face of the Redskins, yeah. Grossman is a screwup, but he's much more likable.
