NFL - Week 8

[WIMUSKY]

Well, Cutler(MIA), Palmer(AZ) out. Palmer broke his arm, Cutler busted up his ribs. With Cutler out, Mia may have decent offensive...Lol Zeke has one more week to play, for now...

Mia is in town and going to try and disrupt Balts home crowd. Although Balts O has been struggling. Mia isn't exactly lighting it up either....

Pretty much a coin flip, IMO....... Pretty much like every game....Lol

Lost in Georgia found himself in 1st place!
Tied with Lost is the Admiral. Would like to be a fly on that wall.
Fish is hanging in there to round out the 3 way tie....

Not to forget the bottom feeders, ThomW and Musky can't seem to get rollin'. They're just waiting for the right time to make their move!

Good luck everyone!!!!!

Lets face it some of us are just destined for mere mediocrity ..:facepalm:
Only thing for sure no way my pro team can loose this weekend !

 

[WIMUSKY]

Alonzo should be tossed from the game...... Pathetic. Practically took Flacco's head off....

He didn't pull up at all. Shoulda been sent off.

What's up with these refs? Are they letting HQ in NYC do the tough stuff?

 

[GA_Boater]

Mr. Suh is supposed to be mellowed. Yeah, Right.!

 

[aspeck]

Was disappointed in Suh. As for the Flacco hit, I have mixed emotions ... definitely deserved a penalty, but then so did Harbaugh and half of the Ravens for their response to it. Not sure it was a DQ hit ... he did not lead with the head. But in the end it did end up just about taking off Flacco's head. So ?????

 

[WIMUSKY]

He didn't lead with his head, but you could see he drove his shoulder into his head. The league is supposed to discuss it. He needs a suspension.... Should have been tossed right away...jmo

 

[GA_Boater]

On the slo-mo, it looked like he purposely slammed his forearm/elbow into Flacco's helmet. It's possible Alonso couldn't avoid the hit on Flacco, but he sure didn't try and aggravated the hit. Technically not using his helmet, but still.

Suh was defending himself Mallet's attack or so he says. What about Hayes poking Raven OL in the eyes? If Miami traded for Burfict from Cincy, the team would be perfect.

I disagree with Cowher's comments during the half. He said the QB has to be protected. What QB? Once Flacco took off running, he was a running back and the QB rules flew out the window.

I was listening to a couple different sports shows on the radio this morning and several commentators were of the opinion that Flacco was at least partly to blame because he started his slide too late. I pretty much agree. If you delay your slide until you see the defender leave his feet you're gonna get hit. Did some Googling and found this from Total Access:

EXACTLY! If you want protection, give yourself up early. If you want the extra yards, or the first down, put your shoulder down and go for it. QB's can't have it both ways ... "I'm the QB, so you have to let me get those extra 2 yards for the first down and not touch me." I am waiting for the NFL to put flags on the QB and make it flag football for the QB's.

I was thinking dresses but flags work.

Why not? Namath wore pantyhose.

So fans don't see how bad Cleveland is? :noidea:

On the flip side, fans won't see how good the Vikes are. :lol:

 

[WIMUSKY]

Well, we should still lead the div after tomorrow......

 

[WIMUSKY]

Ben stinks up the place, throws a dink and they get a 97yd TD..... While he couldn't hit a wide open receiver in the endzone...

 

[aspeck]

Defense is bending, but not breaking. Can they stop them again?

 

[aspeck]

Stopped inside the 10 for the second time tonight ... IF the Stillers hold on it is because of the red zone defense

 

[aspeck]

First down and this game is over!
