NFL Football - 2008-09 Season Discussion

Not open for further replies.
Absolutely, utterly disgusting and unprofessional performance by the Jaguars tonight. I am ashamed to be a Jaguars fan right now.

Say what you will, but they are the worst team in the NFL right now. At least Detroit trys to win.

I grew up in SoGa and Jville is a short drive from my old home. I was happy when they finally got a team, but this season.......last game was a bomb...

.......should watch the Falcons instead.....

All I gotta say is:

"THERE IS A CONSPIRACY AMONG THE OFFICIALS TO SCREW WITH THE CHARGERS" :lol:
 
I read an article with a couple of interesting facts about Denver. Apparently, if SD loses and Denver wins, Denver will be one of the first teams in the league to clinch a playoff spot.

Yes, no teams have clinched a playoff berth yet, but there are five who could potentially do it this weekend:

Pittsburgh, Denver, Tennessee, NY Giants, and Arizona

Giants and Titans could each actually clinch a first round bye this weekend. In fact, it's possible for both of them to clinch the #1 seed in their respective divisions the week after....with two weeks of regular season games remaining after that.
 
It was on the NFL Network.

Which is a cable channel, normally offered on a tier above basic. IOW, not available to most viewers unless they pay extra. I am not sure where each of the other games that day were shown, but I think it was on regular network broadcasts.

Its included on my normal cable subscription. I didn't have it before I moved here and it wasn't worth paying for.

It's a useless channel, its good for 3 hours a week 8 weeks a year.
 
I'm glad to see that the Giants recognized what a distraction he was becoming and moved quickly to put an end to it. Burress, like Vick, oozes talent but is definitely an idiot more often than I like to see.
 
The 49ers are the first west coast team to go east and win this season. This season now means nothing now that this team has done the impossible. ;)

Still can't believe they won, and in the ice rain no less.

I'm telling you, Shaun Hill is the answer. :lol:

Denver may be the hardest team to predict this season. One week they stink up the joint. The next... they look like contenders. :wtf: maybe Bellichek should send Shannahan a thank you note.

I can't believe that. The broncs crap the bed at home against the Raiders - the one team that Shanahan loves to beat every year - and then double up the Jets in NY, with guys from the 5th row playing defensive back.

I knew that since last year. You put Shaun Hill as starter the entire season, even under Mike Nolan, and the Niners win at least two more games.

face it , this has been the crazy season in the nfl.

two of the best teams have won despite players who went on major meltdowns.

the giants had plax who has been a mental case a good portion of the season the titans had young who did his big meltdown early.

A judge has blocked NFL's drug suspension.
They are saying it shows the NFL is not above the law

I wasn't too surprised- the suspensions were just questionable enough to make upholding them a risky move. Far safer to block the suspensions for now. Still, players should know better than to take anything without knowing what all of the ingredients are.

I was hoping the ruling would go the other way. I'd really like to see Detroit beat the Vikings, and if the Williams boys were out, there was a better chance of that happening. Maybe Detroit will shock everybody and pull an upset anyway. They would have beat the Vikes in their first meeting had it not been for some rather questionable calls.
 
Dear Matt Jones,

This second half is your last chance to prove that you should not be cut. Kindly DO SOMETHING. You have until next July to get as high as a fucking kite, as we all know you will. (And if you get caught, have the decency to go out in a blaze of glory instead of weighing down the team with another useless roster spot).

Of course, the way the REST of the receiving corps is playing, this may be elementary.

Love
Turbo
 
I apologize in advance for stealing JKTim's shtick, but there are some things that really must be said.

Dear Jacksonville Jaguars,
STOP SUCKING.

Dear Mike Smith,
Please come back. Please.

Dear Gregg Williams,
I'm starting to understand why you didn't become head coach of the Redskins. The defense doesn't give a shit about what's happening on the field, and whatever the reason for that is, you have a responsibility to FIX IT. And if you don't care either, that's obviously showing on the field and it is NOT doing you any favors in your inevitable search for a new job next year.

Dear Jack Del Rio,
This team has no passion. What the FUCK have you done to them? You cannot run a football team like it's a business. You must run it like it means something, or the players won't give a shit if they win or lose. And outside of Garrard, Fred, Mojo, and a handful of others, THEY DON'T. If not for the last three years and your five-year contract, I'd be telling YOU to get fucked as well. As it is, FIX the fucking problems instead of bandaging them.

Dear Secondary and Special Teams,
When someone is running, FUCKING CHASE THEM, don't just dance around going HURR DURR HES FAST! You're defining the "special" part of Special Teams. Worthless motherfucking wastes of oxygen!

Dear Brian Witherspoon,
You suck. Suck suck suck. And what's ironic is that you probably couldn't suck dick to save your life. Fuck off and stop dropping every other kick.

Dear Derrick Harvey,
Thanks for finally making mortgaging the draft look like something other than a transparent ploy to sell more tickets to Gator fans. Where the hell have you been the rest of this year?

Dear David Garrard,
I understand you have absolutely no assistance from the offensive line or the receivers. But please stop throwing into triple coverage. Just run and slide.

Dear Offensive Line,
We are at Week 14. Why the FUCK are you still be playing like it's the pre-season? I don't expect you to be perfect; three of you are backups for a reason, but I expect to seem some ACTUAL PROGRESS. Open some fucking holes for our runners and give Garrard more than 0.53 seconds to pass the damn ball.

Dear Wide Receivers and Tight Ends,
Go to hell. Alternatively, grow some balls/feet/legs/whatever and GET OPEN. Also, grow some brains and stop running the wrong routes and dropping balls IN YOUR HANDS. When Maurice Jones-Drew is running circles around you, literally, to catch balls, something is not right. When you cannot get open against the Bears, one of the WORST pass defenses in the NFL, something is HORRIBLY WRONG. The motherfucking BEARS. I hope you all get lit on fire so we can get some roster spots open.

Dear Matt Jones,
Why oh why did you do drugs? MORON! You and MoJo are the entire receiving corps right now. And I never thought I'd ever say I'll miss you.

Dear Jerry Porter,
Get FUCKED. You've done nothing but warm the bench for $10 million. Your teammates won't talk to you, your coaches won't talk to you, and you make no effort to make any sort of a positive contribution to the team. You've fucked us in the ass all season, now it's your turn to get what's coming to you.

Absolutely no love except to Joe Zelenka,
Turbo
