NFL Talk

[_Steve_]

Never expected the Broncos to go down like this.
Well deserved win for Seattle.

[shadowgrin]

I hate it when that "Defense wins championships!" trite is right.

I saw a bunch of new commercials yesterday. Every break between a set of commercials had some Seahawks highlights thrown in.

[bigh0rt]

Having never really watched an NFL game before, I thought I'd at long last check one out, being the Super Bowl and all. Clearly that jinxed Denver, so my apologies to Broncos fans everywhere.

You picked a poor game to start watching.

[Patr1ck]

Did anyone notice how easy it was to pick up on the Broncos snap timing in shotgun? Peyton Manning lifts his left leg on the ground and then stomps.

You picked a poor game to start watching.

So it seems. I'll probably give a game or two a shot next season, though.

[Oznogrd]

Didn't comment. The Bronco's obviously didn't prepare enough. Seattle's defense was terrifying

Yes Lamrock, lots of people saw it coming.

[Lamrock]

Yeah, I thought they'd only win by like 20 though

I bet Oz had the same reaction

[Oznogrd]

I think it was a shitty move on Gettleman's part, not necessarily in letting Smitty go but in the way he handled it.

I love Steve Smith in the fire he brought when we needed it, in his effort to tell Cam to quit being a whiny bitch, for being the person who respected Jake Delhomme when he screamed at them (No one remembers that bit for some reason).

But I never liked the attitude..the fights, the chippiness, the over-reactions.

I was just starting to like Smitty last year as he seemed to have calmed and the attitude was starting to be planned and aimed squarely at opposing corners. Smith could catch 1 pass the entire game, yet he'd still get in a corner's head.

My guess? Smitty will be back as a coach in a couple of years.

This is more reaction to the team if we don't get some WR help soon. Right now Greg Olsen is our best pass catcher.

Was tempted to start a new thread for this season but this one will do. 1 down, 18 to go for the Hawks!

The defense did fuck all for my fantasy team yesterday though. Luckily Lynch made up for it.

Earl thomas getting too cocky hurt you as the fumble cost you 2 points, plus whatever you lost on the touchdown.

[zz21]

If the Browns play well tbis week i think ill switch them in next week. Steelers lack of a running game will help because of the crazy cornerbacks we have.

[zz21]

Accurate list of all the times I've had my heart broken on the first game of the season.

[zz21]

[zz21]

For reference.

Don't want to jinx it, but it looks like the Hawks are back you guys! Wilson, Lynch and Sherman going for the repeat - you guys psyched or what?!

[shadowgrin]

Dat Pats-Ravens game. Flacco choking.

[Lamrock]

Wonder if Aaron Rodgers decides to throw against Sherman next Sunday...

Even though I was rooting for Green Bay (because they're a much easier draw than the Cowboys), I don't like that catch rule, even if the call was correct. Still, a fitting way to go for them after last week.

[[Q]]

Yeah that call was bullshit. His elbow hits the ground first, then the ground caused the fumble which he regained control of

[shadowgrin]

The ground causing the fumble still means he didn't have control of the ball anyway for the fumble to even happen.

Police are on it.
