Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 09 Jan 12 - 04:43 PM Yeah, I can get with that, Jts. But I don't think the Broncos will be that slight on the rush early on... again, we'll see. That's why I think Yankee football is the best... it's chess with BIG men. |

Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 09 Jan 12 - 04:52 PM grrrrrrr my Steelers lost to Denver, Now I gotta put up with my kids saying tee hee told ya dad ... Tbow ... unfair, has God on his side ... watchout Pats they are sleepers that came alive ... go figure |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 09 Jan 12 - 05:39 PM "Tbow ... unfair, has God on his side ..." LOL!! I got this note from NFL.com Steelers left tackle Max Starks and nose tackle Casey Hampton both sustained ACL injuries that could require surgery. ... Defensive end Brett Keisel suffered a "significant" groin injury and linebacker LaMarr Woodley's strained right hamstring remains balky. Then there was Martin out because of altitude. I think key injuries to the defense made the difference. That was even with high ankle sprains on Pouncey and Ben. Steelers scored enough if the defense had been able to bring pressure. Question? Did, God "injure" those guys to help Tebow win or is it just that the Steelers have a lot of guys in their thirties and got unlucky on the wrong day. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 09 Jan 12 - 06:51 PM Dan... hahahahaa! JtS... yeah, I know, but on any given Sunday........ Me buddy at the Coop... Packers all the way. I said to him as I was on the way to the checkout... Pats are peakin and Packers are gonna be packin their lockers at halftime in the big show. He said they might have to rescind my Coop membership for that. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 09 Jan 12 - 08:37 PM I think the Giants have a way better chance than the Broncos. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 10 Jan 12 - 10:04 AM My Steel Curtain looked more like cheese cloth .. but the injuries got them. I think they are just gettin old unlike me who never ages LOL |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 10 Jan 12 - 12:49 PM My Panthers look good for next year. Not as good as the lions, but they look good. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 10 Jan 12 - 12:53 PM My kids are all thrilled but I don't think Broncos can beat Tommy. I also as much as I love Green Bay and have my ties to the team, I thing the 49ers have one hell of a defense and maybe the one to win it all |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 10 Jan 12 - 02:10 PM Dan... besides aging, in a game as rough as Yankee football, ya lose at least a step a year from minor injuries and wear and tear. I give the recruiting staff of the Patriots a gold star. Ya gotta know when ta hold em and when ta fold em. Same goes for the coaching staff when they maximize a player's effectiveness while he's still in step. That's what them thar ferriners who think Yankee football is pansyass just don't git. Well, one of the things, anyway. |

Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 14 Jan 12 - 10:47 PM Not so exciting in New England. I don't think we'll be hearing quite so much about the "Mile High Messiah." |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 14 Jan 12 - 11:04 PM Oh dear. The Saints' coaching staff are gonna get rough-assed. But, I expected a close game. And it was exciting. I knew what the Pats would do. They did it BIG time. I turned the TV off. Six hours of football (with two hours on the treadmill) is all I can take. And, there was English Premiership before that. Time to mellow out and get some shuteye soon. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 14 Jan 12 - 11:26 PM People who picked Patriots in the first round are looking very good in the NFL Fantasy Challenge pool. Brady would have got them about a hundred points in this game alone about matching what Drew Brees got in two excellent games. Gronk is not far behind Graham and he will play next week and get triple points. 2% of the hundreds of thousands of people took Brady. They are laughing now. And anyone who took the NE defense just got a point a sack. |

Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Raptor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 12:15 PM Next season we should meet in some NFL town for a game and some tailgate. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 15 Jan 12 - 02:10 PM Flacco go. So far. Lot of drooped balls and poor throws. Cold ball? Cold hands? Poor throws by both but I mean, besides the obvious nervousness of TJ... man, some of those decisions??? |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 02:43 PM The best decision for TJ is to give the ball to Foster. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 15 Jan 12 - 02:59 PM Yup... he seems to be settling down a bit. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Lonesome EJ Date: 15 Jan 12 - 03:50 PM Ouch. for a good part of the Broncos-Pats game the Broncos looked like a mid-level college team. The Patriots showed, despite having one of the NFL's worst defenses, that they had the Broncos' number. There are certain teams that just "own" other teams, and that goes for New England and Denver this year. All of the God stuff aside, I like Tim Tebow and look forward to seeing him play next year after more training and maturity and experience kick in. Elway himself was blown out in several big games, and really struggled his first several years. We'll see. Only one team wins their last game, and I have to think it will be the Pats or Green Bay at this point. That's a shootout that will be fun to watch. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 15 Jan 12 - 04:19 PM I have a real problem with the Pats hiring the ex offensive assistant coach of the Broncos to "consult for them" before the game and have him in the upstairs booth with the coaches for the pats. It is not illegal in the league but certainly sends a bad message. I don't think the Pats will beat any of the remaining NFC teams. They have great offense and defense, especially the niners. GB can get it done also and the giants are not the giants we saw earlier, they are on a roll ... My guess, hope I am wrong, Giants and Pats in the big game |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 15 Jan 12 - 04:20 PM Oh I should have said former assistant offensive co-ordinator of the Bronco's |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 15 Jan 12 - 04:22 PM Pats are peakin. I have been down on their offesive line and their secondary but The Belly just seems to be able to get everyone peakin at the right time. I see the Pats in the show after what I saw this afternoon. I expect the Cheeseheads to win. Dunno about a blowout against the Giants defense, tho. They hyped the Giants offense today in the pregame shows and I kinda asked me, "Huh?". Salesman's puffing? |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Lonesome EJ Date: 15 Jan 12 - 04:30 PM Well, Josh McDaniels is probably still bitter, and Belichik is what he is. The Patriots have already shown they are not afraid to cheat to win, but in this case, the presence of McDaniels was probably a minor contribution, Dan. I don't know that New England isn't a true contender for the title. Brady, Gronkowski, Hernandez and Welker are like a scoring machine when they get in groove. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 05:22 PM If the Broncos didn't want him to go to another team the could hve kept him on. A man has a right to earn a living. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 06:15 PM Maybe defense DOES still win championships. Half time 20-10. The Giants are sure outplaying the Packers. Nicks is Feasting on the Packers secondary. A bad call of "Down by contact." is the only reason it is that close. I like the Niners in a match up with the Giants, their defense seems better but not by much. Defense will also probably decide the AFC Championship as well. Can the Pats do to Ray Rice what they did to Tebow and Magahee? Can the Ravens D slow down Brady? |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 15 Jan 12 - 06:28 PM Well... that's a redface on me! I haven't seen the Giants play much this year and dismissed them due to the poor performaces I saw but they were impressive in the first half. Other side of the ball, I really expected more frpm GB. And, yes, that was a fumble, on replay after replay. How it was ruled otherwise is "strange". As for the Pats "cheating", if you are referring to the shit from past seasons, I think The Belly did the entire league a service when he said, "If other teams can do it and get away with it, so can I. Whaddya gonna do about?" He was the guy that did it OVERTLY and took shit for it. He "cheated" in broad daylight and, by doing so, got the cheating dealt with. Now, that was then, this is now. And the Pats are gonn take the Superbowl. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Lonesome EJ Date: 15 Jan 12 - 06:50 PM You may be right about the Pats winning,gnu. But overt cheating is just a way of saying you got caught, in my opinion. As to McDaniels, we were all pretty glad to see the back of him. He's got some skills as an offensive coordinator as long as there's somebody riding herd on him. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 15 Jan 12 - 07:16 PM True Jack but he was only hired for the game. But it is legal so nuff said. Just not my cup of tea but maybe every team does it who knows. Anyway I never seen the Pats drop so many balls |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: GUEST,olddude Date: 15 Jan 12 - 07:17 PM I meant Green Bay drop so many balls |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 07:31 PM Yeah, Rogers timing seems off. But give the G's credit for creating pressure. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Jack the Sailor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 07:51 PM And the Pats are gonn take the Superbowl. I'll bet Brady would love to have another shot at Eli Manning. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: ranger1 Date: 15 Jan 12 - 08:01 PM The Giants have a phenomenal defense. It's what won them the Superbowl against the Patriots in the first place. they put pressure on Brady, and I think he spent more time on the ground than on his feet. I still don't think Eli is all that, he's a decent quarterback, but not a great quarterback. As for the Pats, their defense is young, and it took them a while to gel. I think they'll hold their own just fine. |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: gnu Date: 15 Jan 12 - 08:16 PM I was impressed with the Giant's offensive line. San Fran at home will be tough, but we'll see. As for The Ravens in NE, they are gonna get their wings clipped in a close game... a VERY close game. So close, it could go either way, really. I am serious about that. The Ravens are good. If they can pressure Brady, and I think they can, maybe, given the poor play earlier in the season by the Pat's offensive line, and if their secondary plays up to par, they could nix the Pats if they bring big pressure early. But it's gotta be early and sustained. No matter what, GO PATS! |
Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2011 (US football) From: Raptor Date: 15 Jan 12 - 09:53 PM Defence win champoinships. Who's got it better than the Niners? Nobody! I'd rather face the Pats than the Ravens. I think it would be an easyer win. |

He could run the option And the quarterback draw But his passing game Was against the law Passes flopping through the air Like piss-drunk quail Tim was the biggest fuckup On "Celebrity Fail." Tee-Bo.....Tee-Bo...oh The kid can't throw....can't throw. One night he threw for 316 He felt like a King But he looked like a Queen His passes were short Receivers ran them out Timmy thought he was terrific But fans had doubt About Tee-Bo...Tee-Bo...oh The kid can't throw....can't throw. Tom Brady and his team Put on a passing display The Broncos were in complete disarray Only 5 times did Timmy complete a pass Five other times he wound up on his ass (Spoken)And now on his locker there is a sign that reads...... "Here Hangs a Tiny Jockstrap Owned by the Sarah Palin of the NFL... Tim Tebow" Tee-Bo....Tee-Bo...oh The kid can't throw....can't throw. Spaw |
