Re: The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread
Romo throws for over 400 yds and 3 td, 2 int(1 was meaningless)
Miles has 166 yds, 1 td
Felix has over 100 yds rushing
and it all equals another Cowboys loss. Seriously is their a team in the league that beats themselves more often then the Cowboys to themselves?
Penalties, penalties, penalties. Undisciplined bunch of fucks! A loss to the Vikings next week and the season is over for the Cowboys. The´ll be lucky to get to 10-6 now as it is and I´m pretty sure 10-6 means no playoffs.

You forgot to mention that their OL blows. They gave up like 5 sacks in the first half. At least they finally benched Leonard Davis. Special teams was also suspect especially right after they scored a TD that tied the score at 27. They allowed the TEN KR to return it to the 10 (and tacked on a PF penalty to boot). They also missed a FG earlier in the game too.
I'm still not sure how the fuck TEN is winning these games. They give up 500 yards of offense to DAL and win. Two weeks ago 400+ yards of offense to the NYG and win (by 19). I guess the defense is forcing turnovers and sacking people unlike last year where they just picked up chunks of yards through the air. They are better at red zone defense though.
What a weird week of football highlighted by the 3 late game upsets. SD has the WORST special teams in the league. Two blocked punts in the first quarter vs OAK. A few weeks ago it was two KR td's in the 2nd half vs SEA. SD has generally been a 2nd half team but I'm not sure that they can do that this year.
The Bears throw 4 int and have like 50 yds of passing offense and still win by 17pts. Both teams only combined for 91 yds passing.
Kolb looked better this week I just wish he'd start throwing to Desean Jackson. The 49ers have to find a real qb. Alex Smith looks like a perpetual tease. He'll look good at times enough to make you think he's turned the corner; then he'll suck again.
No complaints about Jeff Fisher this week from me.
Re: The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread
I agree with everything but the Alex Smith part. That kid was awesome last night. Everyone keeps pointing to where he fumbled as the thing that lost the game. And I swear I saw this "wide open" Vernon Davis fall down on that play. But... FRANK GORE FUMBLED TWICE! Nobody is even mentioning that. Then he steps out of bounds and comes back in, jumping in front of an open receiver to take the ball away from him.
A lot of his INT's this year were not his fault. Give him a good coach and a stable offensive coordinator and this kid would have already progressed. I don't know how the kid could have played any better than he did last night, or in the New Orleans game. These losses should not be put on his shoulders.
Re: The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread
I remember that first Gore fumble now that you mention it, the PHI LB made a great hit and jarred it loose with his helmet. With Smith, they might as well just start him the entire year, Carr is really mediocre. Although I have to admit, whatever Singletary said to him seems to have worked. And it worked when he did the same thing with Vernon Davis.
I guess I just want to see a little more stability from Smith. It seems like he goes from a good week to a bad week pretty quickly. The defense of the 49ers also leaves much to be desired. They haven't been good this year. I think Smith is a FA after this year so if the 49ers dump him, he could make a good reclamation project.
Who gets a win first Carolina or Buffalo? I've read that John Fox might switch back to Matt Moore as his starting qb.
Re: The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread
the vikes season so far is a heart breaker.
heading in to training camp they were better than the team that wen 12-4 last year and, by all means, shouldv'e gone to the super bowl.
they had the 2nd ranked offense and a good defense.
now they have a phenomenol defense but their offense, which is mostly the same players, is now terrible. mainly their o-line. they can't make holes for peterson and they can't protect favre. the o-line is also close to leading the league in penalties.
they've been one play away, in every loss, from being 4-0.
instead they are 1-3 going in to the toughest part of their schedule.
Re: The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread
The thing about the Vikes is their remaining schedule is all winnable. I know that doesn't mean much, but even in that loss, they looked like they really sparked in that last quarter. If they can feed off that they'll be right in the thick of it.
Re: The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread
I don't think the situation is quite as dire as the talking heads say for the Vikings. First, GB lost two defense starters to season ending injuries last week and they still don't have a consistent running game. Two, Chicago and their OLine issues are starting to show again. They also benefit from the NFC being the weaker conference this year. They play DAL in a game of "more disappointing NFC team so far" I think 9 or 10 wins gets a WC birth and in this conference this year they have as good a chance as anyone to go to the super bowl.
Forgot to mention Jermichael Finley (TE for GB) is out for 3 weeks and Aaron Rodgers has a concussion issue. So things aren't going well for GB anway.
On the MNF game--the ending quarter was pretty much the Favre story for the last 10 years. Plays great and brings your team back but throws a killer int at the end.
