NFL 2012 - Eli has two rings edition

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Come on refs. Rule him in! You know you want to!

Nice try

 

[mikal]

Herpes.

Dez should have just sucked it up and taken the broken tailbone like a man.

Nice throw, Tony. Get ready to be a backup.

The sad part is that Eli's QB rating is 0.1 point higher. Weird how that stat works.

Lol right?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Early lead was too easy... giants let their guard down. All around an awful game from the 2nd quarter till the start of the 4th... but I'll take it.

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

Lol right?

At this point, he's basically latter career Favre without the credentials.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

That's an insult to later day favre

That's an insult to later day favre

It's not as off-target as it would seem. Mikal and I both felt the pain.

 

[mikal]

Yeah, other than portions of the 2007 season and most of the 2009 season, Brett Favre was not an elite quarterback after the 2002 season. Espn made you think he was though.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I didn't mean it as a compliment to favre and/or a statement of later day favre being good...

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

Romo might want to voluntarily skip town if possible. A change of scenery will do him good. It certainly hasn't helped that he's been on such a dysfunctional franchise with largely garbage coaching. He's not bankrupt in the talent department for sure.

 

[mikal]

I Move In Mysterious Ways, Steven Jackson and Deangelo Williams could be on the trading block.

Thoughts?

My initial thought is there's no way Thomson will do it. He hates giving up picks, and the crappy blocking has a lot to do with the RB struggles. Although you'd get a hell of a lot more out of Jackson than you will Green. SJax is a whole lot harder to take down that Alex "Tap, You're Down" Green.

 

[mikal]

How about giving them Finley?

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

LOL. I was just about to say that! If we could somehow oversell his highlight reel, I'd be all for it.

Yeah, and I've actually been a Finley supporter. I think he will put it all together at some point. But realistically, I don't think his future is in Green Bay, so I'd be all about getting value (or a RB) for him now. DJ Williams and Crabtree should do fine. Plus, we might still get Quarless back.

Finley is way too erratic to be the asset we thought he was. He can still wow you from time to time, but I think Rodgers would value consistency more right now. Plus, I don't mind ridding the team of that attitude. He talks a big game then never puts up a performance that measures up to it.

I honestly don't think STL would be that interested in an above average tight end though. On the other hand, I almost wouldn't mind the Pack just trading him for for something else of use (O-line, middle linebacker, etc)

Undefeated teams of October: Falcons, Giants, Bears, Dolphins

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Giants always do well in October... Eli has the highest winning percentage in October in NFL history. October and January dontworry me... November and December worry me.

From Twitter:

"Actual call from Babylon, NY on sports-talk radio just now. My house is underwater but I want to talk about Jets INTs in the redzone."

 

[phanan]

The Patriots actually got into Logan. Barely.

Okie dokie . . . let's trade this asshat. I don't care if we get Jackson or Williams. Just anything of value will be fine.

Yeah, he's just not very smart. He should know that the media is fishing for quotes. He would look better just saying "next question".

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

If there was an opportunity to shine for Jermichael, it was yesterday. He couldn't get open, he often can't hang onto the ball and he's slow. See ya.

 

[PhilsFan]

Romo would have been good on the Eagles. Way better than Vick or later years McNabb.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

romo stinks.

 

[LemonMelon]

I didn't expect the Skins to immediately have the 2nd best QB in the division, but there it is. Vick and Romo are having shittier seasons than I could have hoped for.
