hahaha how funny the game came down to a FG.

Yeah.

Well I was wrong. He is kicking better than Vanderjagt.

Well, now its an race to see who gets the second bye between Seattle, NO and Dallas...and I personally think Dallas will.

I just got the feeling DAL is going to lose this one in the final minutes, I don't know how. But it's the same feeling I got with the Eagles game and it's the same feeling I got with the WAS game. Maybe I'm psychic....after all I did start Reggie Bush over L.T. 😄

WHAT? you can only start 1 RB? thats kinda odd. But man are you crazy for ever benching LT.

Automatica sure came through.

For some strange reason I benched L.T and put Bush in instead of benching Warrick Dunn and putting Bush in.

But who cares it worked out, I got the win! (I'm up by 80 points...o I got the win).

ah ok.. woulda been real ugly for um with LT in over dunn

I really can't stand SEA, it is always the games I don't watch that they seem to pull out in the last seconds.

I can't wait til Leinart torches their sorry asses.

pull out in the last seconds? they took the lead well before the last seconds. Leinart should have a decent game as its pretty easy to pass on seattle. Although he will prolly get rocked several times during it also. But um sorry asses? that sounds like preemptive sore loser talk. They are 8-4 and they were missing the MVP for 6 games, the #1 QB in the NFC from last year for 5 games, their O-line has been hurt all year and was without TWO players tonight, hasselbecks most reliable target engram has been out several weeks, and jeremy stevens misseds the first 6ish weeks and now their #2 TE who they use a lot for his blocking ability has been out.

So ya they are pretty sorry for having massive injuries and still being 4 games over .500 that sure doesnt contend with Leinarts' 2-6 Cardinals I wont even count their nice 1-4 start pre-Leinart.

Yeah, but they aren't going to make the playoffs.

whos is taking the wild cards in the afc you think? if either KC or Denver loses this week Cinci moves into a wild card spot. And Cinci should win at least 2 more games, with a huge game going to be @ denver which may decide who makes the playoffs. If Cinci doesnt get a wild card spot that means SD, KC, and Denver will likely make it which would be interesting.

Also Bengals did that last night without Delta.

After today they are the #5 seed.

Knocking down a FG with only 4 seconds left is the last seconds.

Anyways I just don't like this team so sometimes I will make comments like that, you're right they have somewhat held it together this year w/o their stars, and are in position to steal HFA away from good teams like the Cowboys and Bears, but I still don't think they are going anywhere. 🙄

ok you said yourself you didnt watch so I will go easy. Seattle took the lead with much more than a few seconds. Then Denver managed to come down and tie it, seattle never trailed when it was late. Yes they won the game at the end, and that was Brown's 4th time doing so this year, that is the sign of a solid team who can pull it out unlike the ones who choke so often in the end.

somewhat held it together? being in the hunt for their division would be somewhat holding it together, having a 3 game lead in their division and being tied for the second best record in the NFC with what they went through is going well and above simply "holding it together" They arnt really in a position to get HFA over the bears, but over Dallas and NO they definitely have a good chance, although I'm not sure how it would be stealing.

What in your opinion makes the cowboys and bears a good team and seattle a bad one?

I mean lets look at the cowboys wins here...
Washington?
Titans?
Texans?
Skins again?
Arizona?
TB?

Also Panthers who have been maybe the most inconsistant team in the league this year
Giants once they were dessimated by injuries
Colts with some very questionable calls by the refs.

Now I know seattle doesnt play the hardest schedule in the league.. but come on cowboys arnt exactly downing beasts over there either. And they only have 1 team over .500 the rest of the way.

As far as the Bears go yea that D is amazing. But the offense keeps starting to look worse and worse. And seattles is going to get better as they get everyone back (like their O-Line) and matt and alexander get back into the full swing of things.

If you just flat out dont like Seattle because you like Leinart and he plays in their division thats fine, but no need to talk random trash.

Yes, somehow someone managed to hire my services. I know, it's shocking. Actually, I post in the MS&C and GDF forums about 4 times as much as this one.

As far as McCown goes, I laughed my ass off watching that game yesterday. With Furrey going over 100 and McCown getting numerous "looks," that was the ultimate insult to Mike Williams. As far as the game went, it went in usual Lions fashion of playing well for 3 quarters (most games, BION) and imploding once the first second of the fourth quarter ticked off the clock. This time, it was a false start penalty as the 4th began. And the same final result.

To the 4:00 game I watched: kudos to Michael Clayton for dropping a wide open pass on a go-route. Instead of 10-7, it was pretty much over after Grad's end zone INT shortly thereafter. Also, Gruden went for a FG as time expired to avoid the shutout instead of taking a crack at the end zone to get the hometown boy a TD. 😂

I couldn't watch much of the DEN/SEA game. It was our wedding anniversary yesterday. Still, 2-1/2 NFL games on your 1-year anniversary ain't bad.

pepsi

I'll drink to that.

terrible play by keyshawn who just wildly jumped for that ball way too early when he had no chance of getting it and then left shepard alone for the easy INT. In his defense Shepard did have his hands all on him at the 1 and crossing the goal line and that is 2-3 yards outside the 5 yard contact zone.

oh and one final addition to my seattle rant. check their record when Hasselbeck and Alexander both start. They are undefeated 5-0. I was a bit surprised to see them drop a rank in the power rankings after beating denver @ denver though.

It was still the right call the because IMO that shouldn't be called a pass interference, and they have been calling it like that all game, so they couldnt start there.

It wasnt pass intereference either.

it wouldnt be pass interference but it would be illegal contact.

I didnt think it was either.

It was just some pushing and shoving on both guys. Part of the game.

i mean it is part of the game, but what happened is illegal contact. bottom line you cant touch the receiver after 5 yards. I really dont think he did anything to impead him too much, but if the ref threw a flag it would have been a technically correct call. Yet in the colts game Utecht is called for offensive interference after him and the defender make contact and he comes open and really doesnt push off at all and he is flagged for it and they lose the game.

It just the way it goes.

I saw no fault, Johnson's hands were all over the guy also.
