2014-15 NFC North/NFL Thread

Well that's because you just hate everything bears and will never give them credit for anything.

Something like that.

That did not look good for Romo.

Pokes are in a really tough spot here. They really could use a very very fast diagnosis because the trade deadline is hours away. They have about $4 mil in cap space available.

Ironically, their best option is probably sitting on the bench opposite them tonight.

I can't believe he came back in that game. Curious to see if he misses time later, as he was not moving very well.  Honestly Weeden was probably the better choice at that point.  Romo just about handed the game to Washington twice on that final drive in regulation.  And that may be the first time i recall Jerry coming out of the suite in a long time.  (Granted I don't watch a ton of Cowboy games.)

The other ironic thing is losing Romo is only going to increase Murray's workload.

If Romo is hurt, that's a huge loss.

Romo is fine.


Was at a restaurant in Denver with clients so missed most of the game, but then we moved to the bar with the closed captioning on.  Saw Weeden in there and did a WTF, but before anything else figured it was his back...which it was.   They got away from the run in OT....dumb but not surprising.  Defense is still not good.

Seeing the word Redskins pop up on the CC on the screen about 10 times just the 4th quarter and OT made me smile.

Imagine if Ni$$er, handsome person or kike had popped up on the screen. You could have literally laughed out loud.

You two better not get this frackin thread locked.  Take your back and forth crap to PMs.

What stupendously dumb analogy, but not surprising coming from you.  In fact, expected.

Better call the Walt Disney Company, Lenny, they didn't see it the way you did and on their ESPN broadcast last night with graphics, words, etc they just don't line up with you.  This is a company that is VERY image conscious, I can say from experience as I worked for them for 2 years and have dealt with them for the last 15 years.  Very image conscious.  Might want to get on the phone, write a letter, due a sit in, hunger strike maybe.

Does your back ever get sore from your continuous patting of it for mundane reasons?

Anybody else hear the story about the missing Broncos fan?

I knew Matthew McConaughey was a college football fan (Texas Longhorns), but had no idea he was such a beloved Redskins fan.  Hard to grow up in Texas and be a Redskins fan.  Has some interesting takes.

Big game this coming Monday night.  I'm predicting the highest rated MNF game of the year in terms of tv ratings.

Highest of the season, as predicted....actually highest of any MNF game since 2010.

I was in Denver the last few days and this was a conversation at dinner last night.  Pretty crazy, a lot of speculation last night about whether this guy planned all of this, or did was he abducted, etc.  Pretty crazy way to go out, but rather brilliant as well.  There has to be video out there somewhere in the stadium that captures him somewhere I would think.

Nope.  Do you ever get tired of posting mundane comments on posts you consider mundane in which mundane reasons are used?

My only idea was that he planned it. If he was abducted somebody would've either heard him seeking help or being dragged out of an NFL stadium. There aren't many places a fan can go during a live football game where other people aren't. Not to mention what middle aged man goes to an NFL game without not only a cell phone, but without any kind of credit card? Just a weird story.

He was found safe tonight, in Pueblo, CO.  That's a pretty good drive from Denver, around 2 hours or so.

LOL.  Now that's taking a loss hard, but considering the opponent....

The funniest part is that he thinks HE is interesting and WE are impressed.

Redskins' bus crashes in Minneapolis this morning.

Protesters are out. SKOL VIKINGS!

[tower912]

I guarantee the Lions will not lose today.

Big things brewing in the Twin Cities baby!

I was wrong.   The Lions have suffered a loss today.   Reason for DT being sent home from London.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

7-9 is still possible!

The funniest part is how much some of you obsess over someone you've never met that posts on an internet forum.

[Canned Goods n Ammo]

To be fair, if you said:

- AP wouldn't play after week 2
- Bridgewater starts 10+ games

I think 7-9 is relatively successful.

Teddy B. looks decent so far.

He is on ignore until he apologizes via a PM about comments he made about my wife, but for some reason he apparently still responds to me.  I have no idea why, I can't read it....so there is a great irony in what he is saying.  Apparently he thinks I care what he writes and I so don't care that I block it.  LOL.
