Additionally, I believe that UW had a pretty high ranking this year for 'hot girls'

I know my drives through campus during warmer weather are slower than normal and I am always on the lookout for, ahem, pedestrians.

I'm not sure what to think of Matt Ryan and the Falcons. It seems to me that the Packers have had trouble with the big play this year, but they never seemed interested in attacking the Packers at all. Everything was short, but I don't know if that was by design or Ryan just being careful.

I think that was the plan, get Gonzalez and the big WR's short against the Packers zone. When the Packers went to tight man to man coverage, the Falcons never adjusted. Although, the loss of two interior linemen may have been a factor. They may have been concerned with Raji.

Last nights game was painful to watch, and here's the best argument why

I thought Cutler was the best player on the field for the Bears. I think Martz's system and his O-line is going to get him killed. If Cutler doesn't make so many plays with his feet avoided the rush as well as humanly possible behind that line, the game would have been far more one-sided. I am happy about being 5-0, but I have seen far too many things go wrong with the Lions over the years to not temper it with wondering when the crippling injury is going to happen.

+1 Tower. There's a reason every teams highlight reel has a lot of Detroit. Still, CJ is finally looking what everyone feared. Tramon better spend the next 5 weeks working on his vertical.

tower912 · « **Reply #205 on:** October 16, 2011, 04:10:57 PM »

We can now stop the talk about how great Detroit is. Stafford channeled his inner Joey Harrington with happy feet and bad reads, the defensive line was neutralized if not exposed, and SF was just plain tougher. I am still thrilled to be 5-1, but this team is nowhere near great.

And wtf is with Schwartz's reaction and hissy fit after the game.

Not great, but still good.

Harbaugh didn't have the decency to stop and shake hands and show a little respect. Instead was doing the "drive by" handshake (looked a little too familiar).

But yeah, Swartz reacted wrong.

Have you watched his reactions after close wins? Dude gets pumped up like he's playing.

*edit*: I just watched the video, having turned off the game immediately after the last play and missing the pushing match live. Schwartz gets wound tight. Harbaugh must have said something that rubbed him wrong. As a coach and leader, you need to control yourself better than that. Unacceptable.

Apparently, Schwartz did not appreciate a shove and an obscenity. Go figure.

It wasn't the "drive by" as much as the emotion that Harbaugh gave with the handshake. A little too much for a losing coach - in a tough game. The initial reaction by Swartz is one thing, but when he followed Harbaugh, chest bumped him and escalated it, that was well over the line. I expect he will be fined for that reaction.

Will Ponder start against Green Bay next week?

Because that will be a massacre.

No more of a massacre than sending Mcnabb out there. Dude is washed up, and the sooner the Vikings realize that the sooner they might be competitive in a game or two.

Other than the safety where his lady parts stuck out of his skirt a little bit and the shove sack by Peppers, did McNabb really play that poorly? The first 2 drives were killed by straight drops on 3rd down by Shiancoe(sic) and B twice.

swoopem · « **Reply #216 on:** October 17, 2011, 10:58:37 AM »

The reason Schwartz reacted the way he did was because when Harbaugh shook his hand he said to Shwartz "Same old Lions" and that pissed him off.

tower912 · « **Reply #217 on:** October 17, 2011, 11:00:45 AM »

Then Schwarts would have swung at me, too, because that is what I said.

If this is what happened, Harbaugh is every bit the dick he is reputed to be.

If this should heve been in teal, but I was to thick to catch it, great shot at Harbaugh.

I almost feel sorry for McNabb every time the other team gets pressure on him. His escapability simply isn't what it used to be, no matter how much he/everyone else wants. I thought Ponder was able to avoid the rush fairly well last night. I don't think the Vikings are gaining all that much by having McNabb out there over Ponder.

swoopem · « **Reply #220 on:** October 17, 2011, 01:17:55 PM »

ringout teal was not supposed to be used, thats what happened. I am originally from Detroit and still have many friends there and they were the ones who told me what was said.

If that is the case and all it took to get under his skin, he will be hearing that from every team and every player. Weak sauce to let that get to him.

Keep it and use it when they meet again - which could be the Playoffs. But to chase him down the field, continually bump him, exchange words ...

Sorry, this makes me think less of him than I did before I heard your version.

MU B2002 · « **Reply #222 on:** October 17, 2011, 03:01:37 PM »

There is a story on Yahoo that Schwartz was mocking Harbaugh early in the game as well. (In regards to the penalty for an illegal challenge." Schwartz, it appears, shouts "know the rules Harbaugh."
