Tough break (no pun intended) for the Texans. They finally have the planets align and they go down to their 3rd string QB. Minus that POS Cushing, I really like that team. They have that division, for the most part, and will make the play offs, but if they can't get Schaub back then it's all been in vain.

Schaub was put on IR a few days ago. He's officially done for the year. Maybe Peter King had something and they really will go after Favre.

Colts keep rolling for that perfect season. One good thing about them sucking, all those morons that said "if I was throwing to Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark then I could put those numbers up" got solid conformation that they're completely stupid and wrong. And I hope Indy goes 0-16 to show how utterly dumb it is to completely build your team around 1 player. And Polian is an idiot with his comment about Caldwell being a better coach this season than he was during their SB season (thank you Saints). I feel a half decent coach would have found a way to win at least 1 of their games by now. I mean c'mon, the Browns? Seriously?!?

I dont know take out any top level QB the season and see what happens. Sure the Pats somehow got by when that happened I don't see that happening again. Yeah Manning has more responsibility then just about any other QB in league and you can't expect any backup to fill that role.

 

[Grenouille]

I don't understand the narrative that with Manning the Colts would have been SB contenders that some in the media have propagated.

Even with him they have the looks of a 7-9 win team.

 

[BadMoon]

Just saw a crazy stat. The Eagles had more yards on offense than the Patriots today. What a joke though. They are in need of a coach. Reid will win and continue winning. He lost this team though. Bill please come to Philly!

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

Reminiscent of those old NFL Films videos showing teams playing really bad, sloppy ball with Benny Hill type music in the background.

It always seemed like they had the Bucs, Saints, Lions and Bills on those videos.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

wow...I saw 3 ____ty QBs in the same day

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

Bowe's behavior there about sums it up, don't it?

Why, what happened? I didn't see the game?

But I'll take it anyway they can get it.

I don't care who you play, I'll never argue against a road win.

I heard on the NBC post game show that they started fire Andy Reid chants in the stands.

Yep! They are selling fire Andy T-Shirts.

The chants stopped when the crowd was disgusted enough to walk out.

Looks like I did good by not buying a Jackson jersey. Some other team can deal with this ass hole. Glad they benched him in the 4th. You want paid like a big time receiver? Act like one. Oh and 1 little other part. Catch the ____ing ball moron!

****** bag of the week goes out to Suh of Detroit. Man I never believed he was really a dirty player until that nonesense. What a ____! I heard his team took it to him hard on Friday. Good for them.

 

[sprig0701]

Yes, Suh is a piece of garbage and needs a hefty suspension. At least 2 games. Like Rodney Harrison said, the fines don't affect a guy with a huge contract like has. Take away his right to play.

Jackson is trying to reach the level of a TO, but not as talented. You want a huge contract? Then go try to post the best season you've ever had and watch the offers poor in during free agency, then make the Eagles rue spending all their money on wasted outside talent instead of keeping their own star. Dropping TD passes and getting suspended for team rule violations is not the way to go.

And I'll reaffirm how big a Idiots the Colts organization is for completely building that team to suit Peyton Manning and no one else. They're 0-11. Any other top level teams that would lose their QB before the season would have at least won one game by now, because they play on a team with 21 others and have good coaches. Just putting a back up QB on your roster and not letting him get reps with the 1st team is moronic at best. And to show how little faith they had in their back up they ran out and signed Kerry Collins before the season started. That offense suits Peyton and no one else, and that D keeps teams from matching points with him. Take him out and those star receivers and TEs are lost and almost forgotten for the season, and the D can not take a game over and win when there's a lack of production like they're in. That little pony in Indy is thinking how much easier it was when just Peyton was on his back vs now having the whole team and coaching staff on it. This season shows why P Manning might just be this generation's greatest QB, because that is an awful team he's made contenders under his tenure.

the colts could've signed orton off waivers & didn't

 

[BadMoon]

Mitchell and Ness is still selling their throwback jerseys for $100. Can't beat the price. I picked up a 1992 Cunningham jersey. I have read some complaints from dopes claiming they aren't worth it because the letters aren't sewn on most of them. Should said dopes care to do some research they will find that most if not all teams didn't have sewn on numbers and they were in fact screen printed. They really go all out. For example the 1992 Reggie White Jersey has his name as R. White on the back. He didn't always have the R.. However that season he did. So they are pretty damn accurate.

Anyway with the regular prices being $250 to $300 I'd say it's a steal.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

I think the colts are trying for the #1 pick on purpose. even the worst teams have at least 1 win at this point in the season

Im a lions fan so i have to wholly dissagree and i have proof.

Why the hell would you spend that kind of money? The chance to go 5-11?

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

it's better than 0-16 lol

This season is a chance for them to prove they can learn from their mistakes. Save all you can and screw attempting any sort of salvaging at this point. Get the top pick and draft the best sorted QB for their system and let Manning help develop him (much like Green Bay with Rodgers), and use the money to fill in the noticeable holes in free agency and the draft. They need to show next season that the Colts are more than just Peyton Manning. And I actually have more respect for Manning's talent now. Like I said, he made a crappy team look great. Kudos to him and take that knowledge of the game into coaching when you're down. But I see him in a suit and tie talking Football Pre and post games when it's all said and done.

He is an amazing quarterback and one of the smartest to play a very highly intelligent position i truly hope to see him play many more years his amount of talent needs to be in the record books among the greats.

I got on a site and got my wife an on-field style women's white Pouncey jersey for $75 shipped. It's really nice. Nicer than the $250 ones on the team sites, and they don't have women's jerseys like that on those sites. And I got a knock off Harrison jersey for $25 from a friend. It's nice and you can't even tell it is a knock off. Point being, why spend the $250-300 on the official sites when you can get ones just as good for far cheaper. Heck, my wife looked to get me a custom one made with #92 and Silverback on the nameplate, and that would have been around $350! Just ridiculous.

Because from experience they aren't always good. I ordered a Cunningham one a year ago for $75. It had the new logos where the Jerome Brown patch should have been and no Eagles logo on the sleeves. It was horrible.

His injury is hard to truly come back from. Hopefully he does. He is a true talent. Just like I despise Ray Lewis, but playing Baltimore won't mean near as much when he goes. I like to whine and complain about these guys, but I do truley enjoy watching them play.
