Discuss Week 13 games. Big games include Bears @ Vikings, Panthers @ Packers, Saints @ Bucs, and Steelers @ Patriots.
How about Skins and the Burress-less Giants.
If the Falcons can get a win against the Chargers, which they could be able to, and the Saints can beat the Buc's the Falcons will slide into a tie for first place!
I'm thinking the Buc can finally stop Brees. Monte Kiffin is a terrific DC. Also (read this on NFL Fantasy cover story) Brees is a much different player outside than he is inside the Dome.Quote:

Wow, Jonathan Stewart did the old slow down on the break away and ends up fumbling the ball. Panthers are lucky they recovered.
Pats up 7-0 i think their gonna run the table and go 12-4
Look at this shudule
WK 13: PIT (8-3)
WK 14: SEA (2-10)
WK 15: OAK (3-10)
WK 16: ARI (7-5)
WK 17: BUF (6-6)
The only loss i see is Arizona and Dever and the Jets are tied 7-7 and the Broncos could knock off the Jets
Up 7 on the Steelers in the first is a long way from a win
i have faith in CasellQuote:

20-10 damn casell:mad::(
Damn Cassel for what...the league's best pass rush blowing by his pitiful line down after down and crushing him like a bug? Not exactly his fault, bro.Quote:

Vikes/Bears tonight? Predictions?
Vikes 31-24. Only because it's a home game. Plus, the Vikings know that they need this win a lot more than the Bears.
Vikings 34-28 in OT on an AP 45 yard TD run
Question: Chargers continue their trend of losing and miss the playoffs. Is Norv fired?
I think so. They've gotten progressively worse every season since he's been coach, I believe. I don't think he ever should have been hired, to be totally honest.Quote:

Jeez. Looks like we are going to settle for a FG. And Gus is down.
EDIT: My God, where the hell is the late hit call for that?
Did the Saints win?
Nope, they got beat by the Buc's.Quote:

Big goal line stop by the Vikings.
99 Yards to Berrian!!! Wow!
Awesome 2nd quarter for the Vikings, 17-7 going to halftime.
So by the Broncos beating the Jets does this mean they are the team to beat in the AFC?
/sarcasm. lol
But as a Broncos fan this team has frustrated me even more this week. Lay eggs against KC, Oakland and Jacksonville. Beat quality teams like the Jets and Falcons on the road.
I just don't get it.
Ah, 31-14 Vikings with around 8 minutes left.
34-14 win for the Vikings. Huge win. The INTs they had really played a big part. Through the first 11 games they only had 8 but had 3 tonight.
Yes, they are worse this year, his second year, than they were last year.Quote:

Agreed. I actually would put some of this at the feet of the GM as well. AJ Smith seems to have developed quite the ego...the whole Schottenheimer mess was a fiasco...let's let both co-ordinators leave, THEN fire the head coach. Oh, and then we'll replace the aggressive Wade Phillips with Ted Cottrell, one of the most passive defensive co-ordinators around (that should work GREAT seeing as the whole D has been built for aggression).Quote:

You left out how he let Drew Brees & Michael Turner walk, getting only a 3rd round compensatory pick for each of themQuote:

Turner would have been tricky to hold on to, though he might have been able to tag him and trade him. The problem with that approach is, he counts against the cap for the full franchise tag amount (which is pretty hefty) until you move him.Quote:

This offseason is huge for San Diego. They have a number of big guys (McNeill, Merriman, Cromartie, Rivers) who's contracts are up in another year or two, and there's no way they can resign all of them, so they have to figure out who's staying and start getting extensions done. They also need to either get back to that smashmouth, physical, aggressive style they're currently built for, or start turning over personnel to better fit new schemes.
