That defense misses Troy, he is a game changer back there, just like Rodney was for the Patriots.

Sad to say, but I see big ben going down the same road as Troy Aikman; an early retirement due to the pounding he takes; he reminds me a lot of Bledsoe, he holds onto the ball too long unlike Manning, who seems to always get rid of the ball right before getting sacked.

He is one gutsy guy...........
 
What a horrible thing to have to watch from an airport. I think the Steel City has packed it in and will be looking at the draft. Miss Troy more than ever known. However, last night, Ben was sacked 8 times, so go figure, this week, the offense took a siesta. Talent is there, execution is not. What more to say, although I do have one prediction, if the starters play, I still dont think the Ravens will win in Steel Town. That is going to be the Super Bowl this year for this Steelers squad. Ugh this have gotten ugly, the Browns? Again The Browns?

Disgusted.

My Ravens got a much needed win, played very well...but who doesn't against the Lions:)...but at least for now were in a 4-5 team race for a wild card spot...Sammy
 
The NFL is getting what it wants this year; complete and utter competive play.

Last year, the Steelers, Titans, Panthers and Giants all had first round byes and if the season ended today, not a one would be in the playoffs.

I love watching the Giants play if for no other reason that so see Coughlin act like an escaped mental patient on the sidelines, talk about a guy who's wrapped way too tight, I picture him blowing a head gasket at some point and going face down onto the turf, his face gets as red as a tomato by the time a game is over...................

Coughlin is a little animated...almost a Cower wannabe...but look at the alternative...I got Wade Phillips...I wish he would show a little emotion and fire those guys up...he's like a cardboard cutout...no emotion...no spark...no fire...

he is not inspiring or motivating on the field to me.
 
Another weekend of interesting games. First off, both the 'skins and Ravins managed to win so I am happy:). I think the Saints got lucky, again. Not a lot of surprises in the other games. The NFC East is in chaos. Does anyone want the title? Evidently, only the Eagles. The Giants continue their decent to disaster as does Dallas. What's up with the Cowboys, anyway. They can't seem to win in December even if they were playing their own cheerleaders. The last three regular season games are going to be a dogfight for the teams still in the playoff hunt. The Redskins are in a good position to spoil a couple of seasons. -- lancer
 
After the egg the Vikes layed last week against the Cardinals, it was good to see them back on track this week, though I don't know if it was the case of the Vikes playing well or the Bengals imploding. I expected more from them.

Coughlin is pretty restrained actually, compared to the way he was a few years ago before the players took him to task. He actually changed his ways.

You might know that the other teams in this usually strong division would chose THIS year to self distruct after the Skins had already burned their bridges.:rolleyes::mad: This is not exactly the time to be showing signs of life (and offense) but perhaps it will save Zorn.

Yeah, it figures. The division title is there for the taking and the Redskins go in the tank from the start. At least they are looking like a real football team of late. Hope they keep Zorn and maybe even stick with Campbell. -- Al

Too funny, the guy is a total buffoon, if Dallas misses the playoffs yet again this year, he's as good as gone, Jones must be ready to flip his lid/rug/dead animal on his dome..................
 
Reading this morning that Cincy WR Chris Henry died in some kind of freak accident during a domestic dispute. It seems like a lot of these guys stay in trouble or hang with the wrong crowd. Sad news.

Reports are he fell out of the bed of a pick up truck during a domestic dispute, not all the facts are in yet, pretty sad as he was only 26 years old..................
 
Another great shootout last night and the Colts are 14-0. The Colts have won 7 games after trailing at some point in the 4th quarter, an NFL record. Odds have to catch up sometime, but will it be this season? That offense seems to do whatever it wants and score whenever it needs to. Would love to see the Colts and Saints meet. -- lancer

George...you know....

despite any sign of animation or display of emotion on the sideline...

which I wish he had some of...a little outward passion...

his record with the Cowboys is 30-13...

pretty impressive...

yet he has failed to win any of the big games and is criticized for their poor late season finishes...no playoff wins...

I think Garrett will be named head coach next year...Jones is very egotistical and can't stand being out of the playoffs after his early success...

Coincidentally...Garrett is being strongly criticized as offensive coach for the poor offensive output in their games...

Dallas must beat New Orleans Saturday night...and it's a longshot...

the line is currently New Orleans minus 8...which is very low in my opinion...

Dallas should beat Washington the following week...

but Philly has a softer schedule and the final game of the year...

Dallas vs Philly could be "moot" before kickoff...

if Philly wins the next two...

NY also has beaten Dallas twice this year an holds tie-breaker decision...

Grn Bay...with two wins will probably clinch the Wild Card...

so Dallas is pretty much out if they lose to New Or Saturday night...

excluding a complete collapse by Philly...

Dallas is pretty much "toast"...

I'm tired of eating "toast" too...

I'll remain a strong loyal fan...win or lose...

born in Dallas...Baylor Hospital...

graduated from SMU...

lived there for 5 years...win or lose...

I'm silver and blue forever.....:rolleyes:

Michael,
I feel your pain, things are not looking good in Dallas as far as making the playoffs. Jerry built that monument to himself down there in big D and it needs to be occupied in January or else he will not be a happy man.

How they lost twice to that God awful Giants team is beyond me, but that may be the sole reason why they don't make the playoffs this year, those divisional games are huge, just ask the Patriots, who lost to both Miami and the Jets last year, both AT HOME; a win in either game would have meant the playoffs........................
