NFL General Discussion

The lions/saints game had the worst refs I've ever seen. The saints were holding almost every 🤬 play. I 🤬 hate the saints. We got flagged every play for 🤬 trivial stuff, and the saints offensive line got away with so 🤬 much holding. I hope the 🤬 refs get fired.
In case you can't tell, I'm terribly unhappy.

Calm down there buddy. Yes there were some very bad calls but there is holding on almost every play of a game. If you go look back at game film the majority offensive plays have holding somewhere. And that's for any NFL offensive line. Sometimes you get the calls sometimes you don't, it's just the way it is. The Saints just outplayed the Lions, simple as that. It's their first year in the playoffs in a long time. That's a step. This Lions team has a ton of potential. This years draft is very deep, so if they draft good then they will probably be contenders next year. Not to mention they get Jahvid Best and Mikel LeShoure back next season. I have a felling we will be seeing the Lions in the Super Bowl within the next five years. Us Saints fans had to wait over 40 years for a Super Bowl, I know how it feels to have to watch a horrible team week in and week out. The Lions time for a Lombardi will come. Sooner rather than later.

And 49ers watch out. The best offense in the league is coming, will the Niners be ready? Can their offense score enough to beat the Saints? I don't think so but we'll see.

Oh man, the Saints @ Niners will be a fun match-up. The Niners have a rushing attack while the Lions (not to insult them, but their Rushing O isn't good) didn't. The Niners though have a "managing QB" (though he's finally excelling here). The Niners D may be able to get to Brees (as there's a good chance Sproles and Thomas may do zilch) but will Brees be holding onto the ball when they reach him?
 
The key for the 49ers is to control possesion, run the ball, really long drives, ending with touchdowns. This keeps Drew Brees and the Saints off the field for longer. So, time of possesion will be the key.
 
We got these games today:

* Falcons at Giants
* Steelers at Broncos

Good luck to all teams playing today.
 
Pittsburgh will win which is probably NOT what New England wants. Atlanta needs to get some men on base.... I mean, some good passing plays to make up this 5 run point deficit. The Giants may want to get another few points.
 
I'm sorry Cowboys965, but the Broncos won't win, unless the Broncos get to Rothlisberger early. Tebow sucks, I'm sorry but he didn't win the games. If you think Tebow is great you are delusional. He's as overhyped as Jamarcus Russell was.

We'll see. Not too long to go now, a couple of hours. For sure Steelers are favourites but the Broncos have exceeded expectations in the regular season so why not the Playoffs?

That's too much of a compliment to Russell.
 
If the Broncos win then the Steelers suck. The Broncos aren't even a winning team, while the Steelers are 12-4. We have a better defense, a better QB, and better receivers.
 
Ughh... That Falcons defense... Sucks more than a Dyson vacuum cleaner. :banghead: I bet 25 Madden Superstars Tokens that the Falcons would win :mad:.
 
I can't see the Broncos winning. Tebow shouldn't be a starting QB. Unless they run the ball all game, Steelers will win easily.
 
Yeah, to the referee who blew the inadvertent whistle that cost the Broncos another turnover, go home and never call another game of football again. You are explicitly taught to let plays go and go back and look at them on replay, not blow your gosh darn whistle and not let the correct call be made. Bull:censored:, sir. I am fuming right now. He most likely just cost the better team the momentum advantage and very possibly the game.
 
Understatement lol. Oh well, at least my fantasy picks for Madden Superstars are good so far.

So far same for me. I have 75 points locked up and I could sweep if Pittsburgh comes back. Then again, I just want to get my team rating over 100.
