NFL: 2012 Season

[Omnis]

Did he even get a chance to catch the ball? Looks like a flag.

 

[BLITZ_69]

The .gif is in bad quality. I saw it on a highlight reel and yes; he did have plenty of space/time to catch. He was hit after his first step. And yes, his helmet did fly five yards back from the hit. And it was a clean one too, as much as I could tell it was a shoulder-first lead.

 

[Quackjack]

Hey Bengals. WE'RE COMING FOR YOU!!!

 

[Villain]

Fine example of parody in the league

Yes. A parody of course.

 

[sumbrownkid]

Yes. A parody of course.

Parity of course.

But he can provide evidence for that fact.

Let's take the 49rs. They lost to both the Vikings and the Giants. But the Giants lost to a petulant Eagles team, and the Vikes lost to the Redskins.

The Bears lost to the Packers, yet the Packers lost to the Colts.

The NFC West maybe tough, but so is every other NFL team. Besides, that tried and true lesson of any given Sunday definitely applies to this season.

In other news: Lions at Bears on MNF! Who you guys got? Cause you all know who I'm rooting for!👍

Tonight, it's all about Seattle at San Francisco. Seahawks fly into San Francisco to take on the 49ers. Time to start a new week of NFL Football. Best of luck to all teams playing this weekend.

 

[Villain]

Parity of course.

Yeah I know what he meant. That's why it was funny. Also, parity in the NFL is fantastic and has been so for the last few years. I love it.

 

[Quackjack]

I love the hawks, but the Niners have the advantage...

 

[BLITZ_69]

For those of you who are not familiar with the Seahawks, let me break down their performance tonight:

Our run game was awesome like normal. Our Run D went on vacation for two weeks in a row now. Our pass D did its job. Our receivers dropped a metric crap-ton of passes, unlike normal. And last but not least, our QB was made to look bad by the HORRIBLE play calling by our offensive coordinator.

I've talked about this with some friends and we all agree that the play calling is 🤬. Last week vs the Pats we showed about five or six times that we can play long-ball and make it work, but this week we went right back to "I'll throw a 3-yard pass to try to convert second-and-long. Oh no, now I'm in third-and-long, let me try another three-yard pass." Some 🤬 logic indeed.

 

[Villain]

That game was one giant headache for me. It was nice to see Frank run like he's not 57 years old, and it was awesome for Harbaugh to continue his dominance over Pete Carroll (for you non-NCAA fans - Harbaugh got under Carroll's skin more than once when he was at Stanford and Carroll was at USC).

I had four fantasy players in the game (Gore, Crabtree, Lynch, Akers) so I was hoping for something of a high-scoring affair. Yeah right.

I'm just happy the 49ers came away with the W. It was an important one for sure.

 

[BLITZ_69]

Yeah, the Hawks are 0-3 in the division. All our wins are outside, all out losses inside.

That means you guys are pulling a '12 Dodgers.

Spoiler

You don't want to do that because it means you miss the playoffs.





But then... I want you to because I'm a 49er fan!

Is anyone else surprised that the Stafford-Johnson duo for Detroit has less TD than Charles Tillman and Lance Briggs?

Either Detroit's offense is not playing to it's potential, or defenses have Detroit figured out.

Regardless, expect punches and hard tackles to be common place at Soldier Field.

As the resident owner of Megatron in the the GTP Fantasy Football league, it makes me

 

[sumbrownkid]

Ouch Villain. Megatron is hall of fame material. Stafford not so much, but he still got time to develop.

 

[Patrick]

Everyone steered clear of Megatron during the draft.

Everyone steered clear of Megatron during the draft.

And they are now kicking themselves in their collective asses.

Imagine Brady with Johnson?

OOOOO boy that's too hot.

 

[Patrick]

Not really, he's been pretty inconsistent.

I'm a little nervous about the BAL at HOU game this Sunday. Even with all the injuries for the Ravens, it still doesn't mean my boys can take this game like any kind of cakewalk. We've never beaten the Ravens. Notching one up here would be sweet. Even more damning for my Texans is that a number of former Texans are playing for Baltimore. Players like Jacoby Jones and V. Leach are among a number of former Texans. I think BAL still has Bernard Pollard, whom I think helped give my Texans some character on defense rocking Texans colors. Even with Baltimore's injuries, last I checked... there's still Joe Flacco and Ray Rice. Texans still need to shut these guys down to have a chance to win.

I think I read a report that Ben Roethlisberger may be ready to go for the Steelers' game at Cincinnati this weekend from his injuries.


Good luck to all of your teams this weekend. That even includes Steelers at Bengals on Sunday night followed by Lions at Bears on Monday night.

 

[Quackjack]

We're coming for you Dalton...

 

[Villain]

Everyone steered clear of Megatron during the draft.

What? He went 3rd and everyone knew he was the best player in that draft. The only reason he didn't go number 1 was because the top two teams weren't looking for wideouts.

Detroit was also ridiculed for taking another first round wideout by the derps on ESPN.

 

[Patrick]

There were only five of us who didn't auto draft. Us five didn't want him at least.

Ohhhhhhh you're talking about Fantasy. Yeah I got him and it was an auto-pickup. I wouldn't have used a first rounder on him if I was doing the picks live.

If everyone did an auto-draft he would've gone 4th. 👍

Question.

When is it best to buy a season pass to NFL?

I would like to watch the games as they air or at least when I wake up, but NFL want £99.00 for a season pass and been very new to Football what should I be doing?

Anyone from the UK who watches games including pre-season stuff and Super Bowl? how and how much?

 

[Quackjack]

Here we go Steelers, crunch time!

 

[Chqr]

Hmmm, what happened to Nate Washington in the Titans Offense?

EDIT: Just got a reception in the fourth quarter...

 

[Bye Ya]

Robert Griffin is a bad ass.


Holy crap. Eli Manning...

 

[Bye Ya]

dp sorry

It was Battle Red Day for the Texans today as we took on the Ravens. Terrell Suggs (or T-Sizzle) was in the house at Reliant Stadium. The Ravens started out with a field goal. We answered with a safety, some touchdowns, and a field goal or two. The end score was a 43-13 Texans thrashing. Even with a banged up Baltimore Ravens, it finally feels great to beat a team you can't beat. "Nevermore" are we winless against Baltimore. The game got to be a bit physical at times. A few scuffles broke out in this game. However, none like when Andre Johnson had that memorable fight against Cortland Finnegan. There were also a lot of batted balls in this game. Could have sworn this was a volleyball game often times.

But you know what? I got to hand loads of respect to the Ravens for putting Suggs out on the field, and even more respect for him playing like he's 100% (or damn near 100%). But man... Texans must have been REALLY pissed off after that beat down we took against Green Bay on national TV.


So what did your boys do today?
