That's my thoughts as well, they haven't played a top team yet imo.Quote:

Wow. Marshawn and Russell doing what they want to Atlanta. Delighted to be proved wrong:greengrin
I have a feeling our season is over without Rodgers, the eagles were pish and they still out scored us.
mental Hail Mary for the bengals :agree:
THAT was a bit more like it. Total control. Even Atlanta fans were clapping that 2 play 80 yard TD.Quote:

Though having said that, they don't exactly have a difficult run-in til the end of the season: Miami (x2), Buffalo, home to Cleveland, home to Oakland and away to both Carolina and Baltimore (the latter 2 are probably their hardest games).
Re-my predictions...TampaBay? What was i thinking? :greengrinQuote:

The Jets wont trouble us for the division let alone the Fish. Again.
Im looking forward to seeing how you do against Carolina on MNF this week. Should be worth staying up for :agree:Quote:

5-4 and a relatively easy schedule the rest of the way. This is like the team that made the AFC championship game in Rex's first year. I'm pretty confident we're playoff bound.
I reckon you'll finish at the 10-6 mark - simply can't see you winning on the road to Baltimore or Carolina but the rest are definitely winnable. I'm not sure about us - we have a very hard run-in, starting Monday against the Panthers followed by the visit of the Broncos next weekend. We also have away trips to Baltimore and Houston and still need to play Miami/Buffalo, which are never easy games for some reason.Quote:

We'll be winners, no doubt. Oh the Jessies beat us this season? Well I guess you have to give them something once in a while.
Ed Reed is burnt out.
:greengrin
Swap the Falcons for the Panthers and I think i got the NFC spot on so far. Texans swap for Chiefs in The AFC too.Quote:

Been an excellent effort in this second half from Illinois but that failure to complete there and handing the ball back to OS might be the end.Quote:

This auburn v Georgia game is brilliant!
that was insane! Auburn score a fluke with 25 seconds left!
I elected to watch our OT against Northwestern - normal game finished 9-9, triple overtime finished 18-10 to Michigan :greengrin
Just saw you guys won congrats, seriously though check out the highlights to that Auburn v Georgia game.Quote:

All happening today - players and fans evacuated in Chicago due to inclement weather and tornadoes in the area, Pittsburgh beating Detroit 14-0, Jacksonville up 14-7 over Arizona and Cleveland lead Cincinnati 12-0!
It's crazy, when I saw the early games I was a bit Meh but it's turning out to be great, the weather in Chicago looks mental.
if youv got a bears player in your fantasy team and the game is called off, what happens, do they play the game 2morrow?
Probably the next day, remember when the vikings roof collapsed and they had to play the game in detroit the next day? (I think)Quote:

Got a shock when I checked mine, 188 points! Then I realised it was 18.8. Ffs.
I was leading but not anymore. Too many players, yet again, who haven't turned up.
Thankfully I gave up caring weeks ago :greengrin
I don't think I've ever wanted Pittsburgh to win do badly.
I spoke too soon. RG3 now picking apart the eagles D :aok:
I think the pack are going to struggle here.
You'll probably get an INT or two so don't worry too much! :greengrinQuote:

Great Win for my Saints tonight. Played badly and managed to win.
Such a stressful game to watch though.

Surprised there was no mention of Greer's horrific leg break last night! Properly stomach churning.
Wasn't at all surprised the Broncos beat up on the Chiefs last night - not staying up to watch us tonight as I have early meetings tomorrow and I don't suspect I'll regret that in the morning.
Bloody hell that is nasty.
Go and delete that :boak:
:jamboak:
Just finished watching the highlights of our game last night.
Feeling 'cheated' isn't something I usually experience in the NFL but 100%, that is what happened last night. Shocking call to close out the game.
Having said that, we 'got away with one' when we played the Saints so I guess these things do balance out.
After seeing the highlights it evens out the call they got against us for the patriots but it had to be against an NFC South team.
These 2 calls have a 2 game swing in the division race. Annoying
Speaking of greers injury. How the hell did he smile and wave as he left the field and point at his team telling them to win the game. The lad must be hard as nails.
The ball would have been placed on the 1 yard line with only one play to go. The way they were playing on D they easily could have stopped you there anyway. Poor call though.Quote:

Absolutely and the way they were going, they probably would have stopped us - in which case, congratulations and well deserved - they played well.Quote:

As I said earlier though, after how we beat New Orleans - win some, lose some.
Denver next weekend - oh goody :rolleyes:
I don't know the in's and out's of the rules, but saw it reported that the interference wasn't called because they didn't think the pass was catchable anyway, IMHO if that is the basis of the call then it seems like a borderline call, not blatantly wrong like what is being said. I don't think that Gronkowski would have been able to get to that ball from the point where the interference started.
Pleased with last nights win against the dirty birds, noticed that since Sean Payton became head coach, Saints are 12 - 2 against the falcons, not bad :greengrin with Jimmy Graham receiving another 100yds and a TD his upcoming contract is getting costlier by the week, what did Gronkowski get cause i think its gonna be passed, problem is we dont have alot of spare cash lying around the joint, gonna have to dump a bunch of vets in the offseason to straighten the books.
I met some nice folk from Atlanta this week, went for a meal and a few pints, chatting away, until I brought sport into the conversation. The dad scowled at me and said 'THOSE guys?' I hate the Falcons. We're all Saints fans.' :greengrinQuote:

Feeling the effects of being up until 5am watching us beat the falcons again.
Another solid win but Thursday night football is terrible, just lowers the standard so much.
Huge huge game in Seattle in a week and a bits time
Would have to agree - I hate Thursday (and Monday TBH) night football. The time difference just isn't manageable if you have work etc the next morning.
Really not looking forward to Wes Welker coming back to Foxborough to play against us this weekend. He remains one of my favourite NFL players and I'm still gutted he's no longer part of our team.
Incidentally, the proposed trade of Chris Ivory for Adrian Peterson was nothing short of insulting - not only is Ivory pish, he's a Jessie :greengrin
i did think at the time theres no way scott wants a jet on his team :greengrinQuote:

I'd think so - there have been whispers this week that Peterson is struggling with a groin (?) injury and he hasn't practiced but I can't see him missing out.Quote:

Every week I've come up against the league player who has the unpredictable week where they explode. Zac Stacy's turn this week :rolleyes:
Packers in free fall, losing heavily again. Matt Flynn comes into the game:flag:
It's been pretty tough to watch, from play off bound to not even in the hunt in 3 weeks :boo hoo:Quote:
