NFL 2009 Regular Season

[JohnRM]

Hey, Chicago, whaddayasay? How many picks will Jay throw today (tomorrow). I am guessing 4.

Today? I guarantee that it will be zero.

 

[JohnRM]

Philadelphia nearly gives me a heart attack pulling off one of their patented second-half meltdowns, but they win. The Colts get their first loss. Now, if only I could get the Redskins and Bears to play for me, it will be a complete week!

 

[Azale]

You sound scared.

 

[Kraznaya]

Marion Barber and the Cowboys can clinch the NFC East title with a win over the Redskins.

Jesus Yahoo Sports is pretty stupid

 

[Azale]

A shutout of the Redskins in Washington. I couldn't think of a better way to clinch a playoff spot.

A shutout of the Redskins in Washington. I couldn't think of a better way to clinch a playoff spot.

And they looked good too. Especially on defense. Or was that just the Redskins being very mediocre...?

One area of significant concern for the Cowboys: Short yardage running. A back the size of Marion Barber can't come up short repeatedly on 3rd-and-1 and 4th-and-1. That's just embarrassing, especially with that huge offensive line. A bit more explosiveness at the snap would be nice...

Usually we are serviceable on short yardage, Barber just was completely indecisive all night. We need to include some kind of QB sneak in the playbook, I can't remember the last time we ran one of those.

Something with McGee in the wildcat with an option for Barber could also work if we wanted to get fancy.

 

[Archbob]

Hoping that Favre and Co. win tonight. Shouldn't have much trouble against a bears team.

 

[Zack]

You're positive about Favre in a cold weather game?

 

[Kraznaya]

The Vikings are trying to secure a No. 2 seed in the playoffs. Against the Bears, they're offense is only now warming up.

Here comes ESPN to match Yahoo with the epicly stupid game headlines!

 

[Archbob]

Brett Favre and AP have tied the game! Amazing!

 

[Serutan]

Then a big return + a TD pass untie it. Now the Vikings threaten again.

 

[Archbob]

But Brett Favre once again shows his might.

And its only tied b/c an extra point was missed by MIN.

 

[Archbob]

Looks like Minny has a good chance of loosing its first-round bye. AP fumbled, crap.

 

[Serutan]

Then the idiot Smith doesn't try to get close for the field goal, which is missed {missed intervening due to turning off TV in disgust}, then see that Chicago wins w/TD on the CBS site. Was there a turnover, or did the Vikings just punt?

 

[Archbob]

No, AP fumbled it.

 

[BirraImperial]

Great game, the special teams from Minnesota lost the game in my opinion. Also, why the heck are they not using AP more often in the offense? I know he fumbled and all, but he's still a great RB...

 

[Archbob]

They used AP plenty in that game. He didn't do all that well.

 

[BirraImperial]

They used AP plenty in that game. He didn't do all that well.

Well, he did like 90+yds and 2 TDs... What I meant was that the Vikings rely too much on Favre when they clearly have a good RB that can make plays for them as well.

 

[holy king]

yeah his pass attempts have gone up by 10-15 halfway through the season.
