That is true. Decker is a beast.
Tebow's saving grace is that he can run the ball. Given this, it's shocking teams haven't figured this out that once they stop the run, Tebow is stuffed.

In fairness, Decker is a better WR than either Holmes or Buress. Decker's making Tebow's throwing record look GOOD. Go figure. I'd say only Carsten Palmer and Blaine Gabbert are worse starters than Tebow. How he has a now 5-1 winning record I'll never know.

Rodgers will play those last couple of games to keep match-fit, but he'll only see about half the snaps. It'll be more about guys like Crabtree, Jones, Cobb, Saine, Sherrod, Williams, So'oto and Francois getting more game time before the play-offs.
I think McCarthy will go for it if we're still unbeaten at 14-0, but he won't risk all his eggs on it. The problem is those last two games are the Bears and Lions. Y'know...
But holy fucking shit. Tim Tebow. What the fuck? Completes 9/18 for 143 yards and leads the Broncos to victory? Really? How does this keep happening?

The problem with the perfect season is it really takes an ego to go after it. There's been a few teams that get to 14-0 and rest starters cause they've wrapped up the top seed. I don't see McCarthy going for it. Imagine if Rodgers cops another concussion in the last game when he doesn't really need to be playing.

Holy fucking shit, Suh is a beast. That man is just one angry behemoth.
CHEESE-HEADS!! FUCK YES! Best defensive display of the season. Keep it together for the Giants game and it's a run home where we can start talking perfect season. It's SO CLOSE NOW!!!

Matt Stafford is pretty decent anyway. And Schaub had the bye last week regardless.
Picks this week: Packers, Dallas, Niners, Falcons, Bengals, Panthers, Texans, Jets, Cardinals, Titans, Raiders, Seahawks, Patrios, Chargers, Steelers, Saints.

Inconsistency and unreliability from Hasselbeck is the biggest problem right now.

Strange season for us, we are sitting at better than i expected, yet im still frustrated that we arent in a better position. I think that the fact that we're only 2 games behind the Texans is still good. Realistically the best we can hope for is a wildcard but seeing Locker come into the game and almost get us a W is a great sign for the future, and a massive step towards not being so reliant on CJ0k

Been talking with Buddha about the end of season movements. Colts draft Andrew Luck, Manning + Second round pick for Cromartie or possibly Revis, and then swap Sanchez for a WR from a team lacking a QB like Broncos (for Decker).

Poor first half. But we picked it up in the second half. Another great game from Gronkowski.
Defense had some big plays, Arrington had his sixth and interceptions for the year.

f1worldchamp wrote:Packers defence was woeful again, but it's another W so I'm not complaining. 10-0 baby! I think that was mostly disappointing from the Offence. Jennings had a really poor game and droped a number of catches. As did Finley before his injury. It was Rodgers' worst game of the season (still a 112 rating). The D are topping the league for interceptions (16) but also conceding the sixth most yards. The main thing that hurt us was the pure size of the Bucs' O players. Those guys are HUGE and guys like Blount are impossible to stop when they get on a roll - see Blount's TD where he shakes seven tackles. Huge result for the Lions in the shoot-out with the Panthers. Massive fantasy points for Stafford killed me this week. Pretty unhappy with the number of my players out (two with injury and three with the bye). Fuck me Eli Manning is a pain in the arse. I had the Giants down for an easy win. Glad I didn't put money on it.

Another frustrating loss to the Falcons but good signs from Jake Locker who came on after Hasselbeck injured his arm. Threw 2 TDs and 140 yards in just over a quarter.

Good win by the Eagles vs the Giants. Without Vick and Maclin.

No real surprise that Suh has been rated the dirtiest. He plays pretty hard. I like him and rate him. I think the dirtiest player would be Vick, personally, he stands on LB's after the play.

Old news, but never got round to posting it. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/11/08/new-poll-identifies-mike-vick-as-most-disliked-nfl-player/Quote:A poll of players has revealed that Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is the dirtiest player in the NFL. A poll of fans has bestowed a slightly less desirable honor on Eagles quarterback Mike Vick.
Per Tom Van Riper of Forbes.com, a new poll from Nielsen and E-Poll Market Research has found that Vick is the most disliked NFL player. Specifically, 60 percent of the respondents identified Vick as a player they “dislike,” “dislike somewhat,” or “dislike a lot.”
Jets receiver Plaxico Burress finished second, with 56 percent. Third on the list was Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, at 49 percent. In fourth place, former Pats defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, with 46 percent.
All four players have had trouble with the law, which surely has done nothing to enhance their standing.
Bears quarterback Jay Cutler (38 percent), Patriots receiver Chad Ochocinco (35 percent), Eagles quarterback Vince Young (32 percent), Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer (31 percent), Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo (29 percent), and Panthers tight end Jeremy Shockey (29 percent) also made the list. @Afro- college OT is different. They start from the oppositions 30 yard line and attempt to score. In this case, Iowa scored a touchdown. Oklahoma then got the ball at the opposition 30 and had to score a touchdown, otherwise they would lose, which they did. Basically, both teams have a go at scoring and if the scores are tied, another OT period is played. But, after the end of the first OT and one team has scored more, then that team is the winner.

How can neither team have got in FG range in the first OT period?

Huge win by Iowa State. Double OT 37-31. Outscored Oklahoma 30-7 after I started to watch. Coincidence? I think not.
