  1. And THAT run is why Fred Jackson is the man!!
  2. A stop here would be REALLY nice.
  3. Don't forget... Stevie is so open, in part, because teams cannot just ignore Evans. I know it's odd, but we finally have 2 quality WRs; both are just as important.
  4. Unfrigginbelievable! Going into the half I never would have thought we'd come back. I gotta hand it to this group of guys, there's no quit in them.
  5. This D is absolutely horrendous!
  6. Is wearing a shirt with "Why So Serious!" on it, approved league apparel? He'll be fined. Wasn't Ocho fined for his "HOF" jacket?
  7. Unbelievable! Now, if only Chan will realize the game is not out of reach and runs Freddy more; we got a real shot at this.
  8. He'll almost certainly be fined. But, like I care, it's Stevie's money. Personally, I like his attitude.
  9. Love Little Stevie, but is he the most awkward-looking WR ever?
  10. Fitz has alot of things I like in a QB. But, he's just not accurate enough to be THE guy. And that's not based on this game, it's based on his career. The last pass to Nelson is the perfect example; he's got the WR open for a good catch but he puts the ball on the wrong side and the safety makes the play. Fitz does that all too often. Add to it Chan's complete abandonment of the run game at the earliest possible opportunity and you have the recipe for a loss every week.
  11. And now 10 mins left in the 2nd quarter Chan abandons the run game. Nice! !@#$
  12. Funny thing is... I told my buddy this week that Benson was going to return to ProBowl form today. Fuggin sucks.
  13. For me, the most amazing stat this year is the number of players on IR. After 4 years of seemingly being in the top 3 in terms of players on IR; we've remained relatively healthy.
  14. Better blocker is my guess. I must admit, though, that the other Nelson is seriously MIA this year even in the passing game. It would appear TE remains a huge weakness for the O.
  15. I liked that too.
  16. Agreed. I'm hoping they'll make some adjustments based on what they saw/did. Otherwise, it's going to be a long afternoon.
  17. Bills D made that look entirely too easy.
  18. I shoulda known... Go Bills!
  19. Go Bills! Love Johnson announcing the game.
  20. I think the disconnect in this argument is the attempt to attribute success to the drafting of a single player. Football is the true team game. A top QB can only become a future HOF prospect if you continue to build the rest of the team properly. Having quality coaching is also pretty darn important. Let's just toss that out there for fun, as well. So, IMO, if you really think Luck is the next great QB; you take him. But, you don't stop there. You stack the team with the right talent and most importantly get good coaches hired to properly utilize those players. Unfortunately, does anyone really think that Modkins and Edwards are Super Bowl caliber coordinators? So, there's going to be a huge confounding variable in any player evaluation on this team until we get better coaching in here.
  21. I completely agree. For that reason, you don't randomly collect data just by picking data at random, you use random number generators and the like. Good point.
  22. It's kinda like how Gore never actually said he invented the internet. Comedians, then pundits, took a comment , skewed it just a little and... there ya have it. Fact.
  23. I suppose... we all believe what we want to believe. No worries...
  24. Considering the Tea Party is a new movement with a much smaller contingent, I think calling it a fringe movement is quite accurate especially prior to the election. Also, if you had control of the media and really wanted to squash the Tea Party, wouldn't it be more effective to just not report on it at all? By reporting on it every night, they're actually giving it notoriety and allowing people to know much more about the movement. So I'd suggest that the liberal media is doing exactly the opposite of what people are claiming they're trying to do and are biased <i>towards </i>the Tea Party. Why don't they give more press time to other "fringe" political parties? Because they like the Tea Party more, that's why. Given that "liberal" is seen as more of a negative label than "conservative"; couldn't you argue that the liberal media is actually helping the conservative candidates by clearly and routinely telling me which one is the conservative candidate. If any thing, I see that as a conservative bias by helping one candidate with a favorable title and helping me more easily identify them. Many of those races were the higher profile ones for a variety of reasons. But, doesn't the media in general always report on the "freak show" events more than the actual issues. That's why Paris Hilton and her like get so much press time. I'd say they're just giving the dumbed down masses what the ratings indicate they watch more than any sort of political bias. The chick in DE said she practiced witchcraft, you gotta admit that's going to get headlines and subsequently a lot of press time for the duration of the event.
