NFL Offseason Discussion

[Bama]

LOL

Stop cheating Chargers.

[PhilDeez]

WTF was that!! This is the worst called game I have seen in a while.
I can't even finish this post without more BS calls going the Colts way. I think they have the best chance to beat the Pats, but my God let the game play out NFL.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

the refs are getting flag happy

the Giant game wont start until 6pm

[Snoogans]

this game is really making me angry, and i dont like either team. But the refs have been TERRIBLE

[spoon]

LOL

Stop cheating Chargers.

I'm pretty sure you're kidding, but if not, wow.

[spoon]

he stepped out??

Even if he did, u know the Chargers wouldn't get the call.

I don't even need to watch, this game was decided weeks ago.

[Bama]

Rivers and LT are both out.

Colts D has NO excuse.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

wow 2nd string needs to win this game

[spoon]

and the refs
and 10 charger points taken off the board (possibly 14)
and the "manning" factor....see above

[foodcourtdruide]

Other than the pass interference call, what calls have unfairly gone the Colts way?

[spoon]

wow 2nd string needs to win this game

They will!

:furious:

[spoon]

Other than the pass interference call, what calls have unfairly gone the Colts way?

Pass interference before the FG the Chargers missed.

Phantom hold on Weddel on Cromartie's pick 6.

[Bama]

I take back everything I said about Rivers.

He's not good. The Colts D is pathetic.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

always was mad that Volek wasn't a starter somewhere else

[foodcourtdruide]

Pass interference before the FG the Chargers missed.

Phantom hold on Weddel on Cromartie's pick 6.

Hold call was iffy. Don't remember which Pass Interference call you're talking about. Colts had some hard calls too.

OK, now that was funny.

give me one

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Sir William Volek TD

smart with the sneak

[spoon]

TDs by Volek and Sproles!!

Can you say more about Norv today!?

I'm impressed with this fight against the indy refs!


Pick 6 against Manning to wrap this up! It's coming!

[foodcourtdruide]

face-mask call on this drive was sorta lame, personal foul on OL negating 30 yard pass. Calls have gone in Indy's favor, but you sound crazy if you're screaming out conspiracies!

"I don't even need to watch, this game was decided weeks ago. "

[Bama]

Horrible.

Backups ran it down the Colts throats.

I have it on tivo, both were TOTALLY legit!

It's in the fucking rule book, make sense.

The only call they got hit with was the no td call and it got reversed.

Come on! That's weak.

If the fix was in, those calls never would have been made. The hold on the interception was legit.

I'm agreeing, calls have gone in Indy's favor. But insinuating that a fix is in is making you sound like a crazy person.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

fucking eh

gotta love the playoffs

[spoon]

They can only help. They can't make it happen if the other team is that outplayed.
Hence my comment.

[Bama]

I hate long bombs on 3rd down.

Oh well. One more down.

[foodcourtdruide]

I think a couple bad calls were made. Indy got lucky and they went their way. It happens. Wow, 4th and 5. Indy has 3 timeouts. I say go for it, but this is a CLOSE game.

[spoon]

flag just in case!

[foodcourtdruide]

Wow! HUUUUGE PLAY!

[spoon]

:wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash: :wallbash::wallbash:

The whole fucking line was holding.

ok, he did

[foodcourtdruide]

flag just in case!

Stop it! I feel like this game is far from over.

[HBox]

How stupid is Shawn phillips. How could you do that on a 4th down play? He gave them the first down before they did anything.

[foodcourtdruide]

What an amazing defensive play on 2nd down.

[Bama]

Damn.

[foodcourtdruide]

I hate Norv Turner.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

wow its in the Chargers Hands

[mdr55]

Let's Go GIANTS!!!

[foodcourtdruide]

Game totally not over. If the Colts don't allow a first down they'll have about a minute left.

[Bama]

Wow. Colts got lucky with clock.

They could have time for a drive.

That assumes the defense can make a stop. BIG assumption.

[foodcourtdruide]

Wow. Colts got lucky with clock.

If they can stop them, they should have decent field position.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Scifres has been booming his punts, so dont expect gr8 field position

edit: told you so

[mdr55]

It's Over!!!!

[HBox]

That's an amazing punter right there.

[foodcourtdruide]

My god, what a punt! Out of the end zone to the 20!

[Bama]

70 yards - 90 seconds.

Peyton can............no he can't.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

a 5 yrd pass on 1st down :lol:

[foodcourtdruide]

Ouch.

[Bama]

Sucks to see the Colts lose that last time out like that.

[foodcourtdruide]

Game over.

[HBox]

Man Phillip Rivers is a punk. Why yell at the fucking crowd?

[King Hippos Bandaid]

7 for 7 with my playoff picks


Chargers pwn the Colts

[Bama]

Rivers isn't too hurt to talk trash I guess.

What a douche.


Patriots just won the Super Bowl.

[Fallon]

Payton walking off the field with his head down. This is the Payton I know!!!

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Chargers having a gr8 2nd half, but I think injuries will be too much to beat the Pats

[epo]

Rivers isn't too hurt to talk trash I guess.

What a douche.


Patriots just made it to the Super Bowl.

Fixed it for ya.

[Bama]

Ok, who's watching the Giants game?

We should go to the chat room.

[spoon]

Man Phillip Rivers is a punk. Why yell at the fucking crowd?

He really is. I fucking hate it too. I'm no BDC. Honestly, has he earned that right? Does anyone ever earn the right to go after fans like that? I say no, understand it's a game and your place. Also, the guys that fight the fans right and fun are the likes of Chad Johnson and Farve. Not that bullshit!

[JimBeam]

I didn't see it but I take it from the reaction that Rivers was some kinda douche after the game.

This is the same team that cried last year about how the Patriots mocked them on their own field.

Well I have to pull for San Diego and if not one of the NFC teams because I can not deal w/ a 19-0 Patriots team.

Manning threw for almost 400 yards so how'd they lose this game ( especially if they got all these calls Spoon has been yelling about ) ?

[spoon]

Fixed it for ya.

The AFC owns the NFC, no matter who goes. We could send the Browns and win.

Listen to ESPN radio, or Boomer on the postgame show. They're both saying the Chargers got some real bad calls against them, played with the 2nd team on O and still won this game.

And Rivers was yelling at the fans near him. Bad, but they were yelling at him the whole game. He needs to smile and let it go. It wasn't anything disrespectful to the team, in fact he went to just about every guy on the other team and was cool. However, he's like a 12 year old with fans and it's sad.

[Bama]

The funny thing is that Rivers got hurt and the Chargers scored the winning touchdown quite easily without him.

[epo]

Jay Glazer is a tool.

Breaking News? "Mike McCarthy is on the verge of a new deal." --- No shit Jay, that's been in the news here all week.

Just because you read the newspaper doesn't make you an insider.

Don't forget what a jackass he was a few weeks ago when they played Denver. He was talking smack to Jay Cutler after the Chargers sealed the win.

Phillip Rivers = Ryan Leaf with a better backfield.

[Bama]

Still can't believe we're all gonna have to root for the freaking Chargers next week.

[Tenbatsuzen]

I've seen enough Manningface today.

[spoon]

Still can't believe we're all gonna have to root for the freaking Chargers next week.

Some of us were already there!

[Tenbatsuzen]

I still don't understand why Dungy didn't kick the FG in that fourth and goal. You still had all your timeouts and a potential onside.

And for whoever said Rivers = Leaf... that's idiotic.

Rivers ain't a great QB, but Leaf is an entirely different level of suck.

[spoon]

I'm out guys. Good luck Giants fans. I'll be rooting with you for my neighbors. I told Gabril it was going to be Giants SD for the SB and it's getting pretty close. Manning 2 versus Rivers! Battle of family pride and the fucking family draft! Fucking dumb hayseed cunt family!





I'll take their money and skill though!

[Bama]

Some of us were already there!

Yeah, you've been on the Chargers for as long as I've seen you here. Congrats.

[mdr55]

Pam Oliver!!!:thumbup:

Thanks, I go back to the Rolf Benirschke, Dan Fouts and Gill Byrd.

We've had some really tough years though, and no SBs still.

C'mon Jacobs!!

It was worth it seeing my Steeler fan friends cry when Seau beat them with one arm!!!!

[mdr55]

C'mon Giant D!!!!

[spoon]

C'mon Giant D!!!!

Wait, the Giant's have a Defense? I thought the O was playing both ways like in High School!

[mdr55]

Dang. Dallas D have Burress covered like glue.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Steve Smith, (not the former Blackhawk or Atlanta Hawk) is stepping up his game


TOUCH DOWN GEEE MEN!!!!!!

[epo]

That was a huge TD.

Go Giants (for 13:29 more).

[mdr55]

DEFENSE!!!

[sailor]

He really is. I fucking hate it too. I'm no BDC. Honestly, has he earned that right? Does anyone ever earn the right to go after fans like that? I say no, understand it's a game and your place. Also, the guys that fight the fans right and fun are the likes of Chad Johnson and Farve. Not that bullshit!

the patriots mock the fans every time they win a road playoff game, but no one ever says anything. it's what the league is coming to be.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Nice stop on D



damn punt

we need Bradshaw to get some 1st downs

edit, let fucking bradshaw run with a toss on 3rd down

[epo]

Good timeout for Dallas. Romo kinda looks like he's losing his cool.

Giant fan for 4 more minutes.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

what a wacky drive, please use Bradshaw

addendum: why the fuck are we playing so conservative

[mdr55]

Dallas gets the ball back. C'mon Giants Defense!!:wallbash:!

[Marc with a c]

i am fucking shocked

[King Hippos Bandaid]

NFC Championship here we come HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jinx this Bitches!!!!!!!!!!!

[epo]

That defensive coordinator from the Giants should be given a medal for the job he did today. I'm a big Giants fan at the moment.

[Cleophus James]

So who is the Cowboys coach in 08-09?

[Bunny™]

So who is the Cowboys coach in 08-09?

Cam Cameron

[Cleophus James]

Sorry I mean who is the new cowboys coach in 08-09?

[mdr55]

YES!!! I'm going to McDonald's to get a Quarterpounder for McQuarters!!!:clap:

[mdr55]

At least Romo still got Jessica. So it's a win win for him.

[epo]

Congrats to the Giants for playing a great game.

Now, I must turn my back on you.

[ralphbxny]

Great games this week. Congrats to the Pats, Giants, Packers and Chargers.

wait what?? explain seriously.

[Bama]

He said he thought it was unfair that the media was going to blame Romo when it was a team lose. He had sunglasses on but you could tell he was really upset. His voice broke and he started getting the sniffles.


They keep replaying it on NFL network. I'm sure it will make sportscenter.

That was hilarious. I'm sure Donovan McNabb and Jeff Garcia enjoyed that in particular.

The quarterback who is going to beat the Chargers was born in 1977. The quarterback who is going to beat the Giants was born in 1877.

Also, Brady and Favre = both five letters.

I'm scared.

I just saw a clip of Owens crying. I'm going to start a thread discussing whether or not it was a bit.

[foodcourtdruide]

If the Giants beat the Packers Away, you have to give them a fighting chance in the Superbowl. Winning 3 away games in the playoffs is nothing to sneeze at.

I renounced the Bengals at the end of last year. I watched the entire NFL season this year without a twinge of feeling for those criminals.

And my second favorite team was always whoever played the Giants. I despise them.

still anyones game, but they need to try volek, rivers cant move and its helping the pats pass rush. i hate sd (bunch of cry babies) but would love to see them beat the mighty pats

Can the Chargers kicker stop kicking it to the 30 on kickoffs?

I'm rooting for NY but I think Packers will win.

[PhilDeez]

Rivers sucks balls. 3 first and goals, 3 field goals.
Three ints from Brady, only two result in points. The Chargers have had every chance to be destroying the Pats, instead they will be 2 scores down with 10 minutes to go. Oh well.

[Cleophus James]

all right new england, stop scoring TDs. I need -14!

they lost Colvin for the year, he was a huge loss on defense.

SUPER BOWL BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know I put them on for that game! Yeah, I know he flopped but the glasses don't allow me to truly grasp that at least for 10-15 minutes after the inevitable Pats win.
They are a great team. Winning the last two weeks basically without any big production from Moss while finding a running game that was virtually stagnant all year.

Just hoping for a Favre/Brady showdown in the SB!

Sherando High School graduate and New England Patriot Kelley Washington prevents a punt from entering the end zone for a touchback during the third quarter of the AFC Championship Game on Sunday in Foxborough, Mass. Washington’s special-teams play pinned San Diego inside its 5-yard line and was a key moment in New England’s 21-12 victory.About the only other real winners from around here are Patsy Cline and Admiral Richard Byrd. It's good to have someone new.

A defiant Gene Upshaw said that if the NFL's owners opt out of the current labor agreement later this year, the players' union is ready for a strike or the decertification tactics it used to get free agency after the 1987 walkout.

[JimBeam]

I may have missed the boat if this broke a few days ago but I guess there's now been a new issue raised w/ the Patriots and their videotaping nonsense :

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3226465

I'm listening to the radio and Mel Kiper's making a point that the gov't, based on Arlen Specter's statements, shouldn't get involved in this.

While I agree the gov't does have more important things to focus on I think maybe a little more should be made of this by somebody outside of the NFL.

Kiper also argues, and i agree to a point, that no real advantage was gained from taping a walkthrough.

My concern is not that they did anything wrong within the confines of the game ( although I guess they did violate some ethics ) but that they videtaped people w/out their permission. The average person shouldn't just be allowed to videotape everything somebody else is doing but it surely shouldn't be legal for what essential breaks down to one corporation videotaping another corporation's meetings.

I know that sounds wierd but to me it is a bigger deal.

[Ritalin]

I wonder if he's the one who says this (from si.com):

New allegations have emerged about a Patriots employee taping the Rams' final walkthrough before Super Bowl XXXVI. According to a source, a member of the team's video department filmed the Rams' final walkthrough before that 2002 game. The next day, the Patriots upset St. Louis, 20-17, on a last-second field goal by Adam Vinatieri for their first championship. A walkthrough involves practicing plays at reduced speed without contact or pads. It is common for teams to film their own walkthroughs and practices. According to a source close to the team during the 2001 season, here's what happened. On Feb. 2, 2002, one day before the Patriots' Super Bowl game against heavily favored St. Louis in New Orleans, the Patriots visited the Superdome for their final walkthrough. After completing the walkthrough, they had their team picture taken and the Rams then took the field. According to the source, a member of the team's video staff stayed behind after attending the team's walkthrough and filmed St. Louis' walkthrough. At no point was he asked to identify himself or produce a press pass, the source said. The cameraman rode the media shuttle back to the hotel with news photographers when the Rams walkthrough was completed, the source said.

The Cleveland Browns won't pick until the 3rd round after today's deal.

Their 2nd rounder went to GB for DT Corey Williams in a trade today (http://www.sportsnetwork.com/default.asp?c=sportsnetwork&page=/nfl/news/ABN4134776.htm).

It will be interesting to see how this plays for the Browns.

Draft picks are worthless anyway. I mean, look at how well the Redskins have done the last few years, winning all those super bowls and they never have any early picks. Teams like the Patriots that stockpile draftpicks do terrible every year.
