What a Tuel

As much as I don't think Cassel is any good, or that Manuel is better, I think Cassel would've done just fine against the weak Jaguars, but we would've still got beat by the Bengals. Call me crazy, but I still prefer Manuel as the back up over Cassel though.

How many great QB's with an average/competent roster lost or did not make it to the super bowl in those years?

This is a shoulder injury. Not a concussion.

Just messing with enlightener. He has been notorious for bashing Watkins at least in the least few weeks, and I am sure his post while seemingly innocent, likely had Sammy Watkins is bad undertones. Maybe I am just reading into it too much though.

You know we don't win or anything if a WR gets a lot of yards per catch, or even after the catch! Yards simply don't matter.

I saw a 2014 highlight reel of Orton and man he was fantastic! Our offense is only slightly better.

Defense has been pretty bad. And ever since Keenan Allen went down, Rivers has been inconsistent. With no running game, and no pass protection, they are just a mess all around.

I think we would all be ok with those teams beating our competition. It would be awesome if San Diego beat KC, or the Browns beat the Steelers, but we are looking at worst case scenarios. If the Steelers win the next 4 in a row we are done. Same with the Jets. However, the Jets do not matter as much because we have some control against them Week 17. However Pittsburgh is the biggest threat because they can eliminate us beyond our control. The Steelers winning 3 out of 4 of the next conference games will give them a tie on conference record against us. The next tiebreaker is common games played and a win for them against the Bengals gives them the common games played tiebreaker on us, We would need the Steelers to lose 2 of their next 3 then, and they are playing a Schaub led Ravens, and a mess of a Browns team aside from the Broncos. We will always be cheering for the other teams to lose but the Steelers are by far the biggest threat right now. This Bengals game is huge for us. Go Bengals!

That's not it. He is allowed to own two teams in the same market so long as he isn't in both buildings at the same time.

I assumed he meant Steelers lose to the Bengals and that's it until Week 17. Yeah a loss to the Bengals and Broncos would be awesome.

We would need help in a steelers loss to the browns though

I like how they try to blame Rex too. It's a huge setup and its annoying. Let's stick a mic in a guys face and ask him the same question over and over again until you get a sound byte, blow up the sound byte on national media into a type of problem that the coach won't address. Manufactured outrage.

I am just finding out the Ingram might be out with a season ending shoulder injury. It's Spiller and Hightower there now. Might hurt Brees a little. I'd go with Tyrod though. The way they have been abused through the error is crazy. Most points to wide receivers according to one league. I am starting Sammy Watkins with confidence!

Wrong. Play with the playoff machine, or look back on other pages for specific scenarios that aren't too unbelievable.

Sounds like they miss him and are trying to justify they are better without "jellyroll" McCoy As the top RB from last year gets demoted on their team...

I agree. The reason he didn't sign with the Ravens was because he wanted a starting job. He has what he wants here, I am not sure another team would offer him the type of contract that would be able to pull him away. That may change if we draft a qb, but we need to just in case anyway.

That's just not how stats work. That game was basically how Brady is playing now riddled with injuries, I wouldn't mark it up as a sign of low potential.

They did. Beckham punched our players, but the officials didn't see the need to penalize it. Kicking the ball though? Delay of game!

They need to lose to the Bengals, and if we won out, we would have the tiebreaker. If the Steelers win next week, they need to lose 2 of the last 3, and we could then afford to lose 1 NFC matchup.

I was only enlightened 2 times. I must have missed out on one And he missed 4.5 games compared to last years playing with an injury. Stepping up in a big way at this point!

why do they tackle like that? It seems like our guys get hurt more often when they just try and crash into other players full speed. Hit him and wrap him up. Hope he is ok.

I have the following Bills Eagles W Redskins W Cowboys W Jets W Steelers Bengals L Broncos W Browns W Ravens W Jets Titans W Cowboys W Patriots W Bills L: We make the playoffs with a strength of victory tiebreaker in which I had the Bengals beating the Steelers. If the Steelers beat the Bengals, and lose to the Broncos, we lose the tiebreaker to them based on common games played (We are 1-4 (Colts, Patriots, Bengals, Patriots, Kansas City) they would be 2-3 (Bengals, Colts, Bengals, Kansas City, Patriots) Suffice to say, we are in desperate need of a Bengal win next week.

But, but.... Byrd is the Word....

The eagles beat the patriots now though, so look for them to be talked up...just in time for the game against the bills. It will be tough going though, each matchup is its own game. We should beat them but we need to execute and play to beat them.

Just looked it up. There was no sideline camera view replay of it during the game (why not?). It would be close, unless the all-22 nails it we will never know though.
