dude, as i said... its not my fault your team sucks.

hopefully next weeks game dallas cowboys - philadelphia eagles will be for a spot in a wild-card game.
you do hold a superior team to my eagles, but win or lose, the cowboys are gonna get hurt again.... remember last year?

lj, you could always change teams.

i'm more interested in the bowl-games going on.
some heavy cash on the line, already 1 for 1 ...7 to go!!!!

  2. Intentional grounding will be called when a passer, facing an imminent loss of yardage due to pressure from the defense, throws a forward pass without a realistic chance of completion.
  3. Intentional grounding will not be called when a passer, while out of the pocket and facing an imminent loss of yardage, throws a pass that lands at or beyond the line of scrimmage, even if no offensive player(s) have a realistic chance to catch the ball (including if the ball lands out of bounds over the sideline or end line).
i think i saw 4 instances where rivers grounded the ball. no shit

add to that the ridiculous spots.......and it seems like the fix is in.

wait....thats 5......as i write this... a flagrant example......


and now a horse shit holding call and a lame facemask.


sigh.....

While that fictional face mask was going on - look at #61 for SD - His hand was clearly INSIDE the face mask of an Indy defender. . . I just wish they would let the friggin teams decide these games. The officiating crew should all publicly apologize and then be fired. The entire unit SUCKED!

nfl play-offs

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

tennessee titans[-3.0] vs baltimore ravens

as i've said before this year, the ravens are capable of representing the afc in the superbowl[read signature].
i've evaluated how weak the titans team is in reality.
this will be a close game, but the ravens have the edge and the spread.

bet on the baltimore ravens

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

carolina panthers[-10.0] vs arizona cardinals

the panthers are not going to win the superbowl, they are not good enough.... but they will win this silly game.

bet on the carolina panthers

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

new york giants[-4.0] vs philadelphia eagles


the winner of this game will be in the superbowl as they are the last 2 decent teams in the nfc.
the giants are superior, but one must consider all factors when wagering this kind of cash.

bet on the philadelphia eagles


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

pittsburgh steelers[-6.0] vs san diego chargers


free money
they should create a new rule in the nfl where a team must have at least an amateur ol to be permited to play an nfl game.
the steelers at this time, do not have an ol that lives up to that standard.
take any qb in the game...... or take any qb in the history of the game, and place him behind this line in this condition and he will not be able to preform.
double digit win here for the chargers.
dip in to your savings for this one.

bet on the san diego chargers

Er, what kind of cash would that be, exactly?

It was pretty quiet in the city tonight, after the win against the Vikings...but if we can beat the Giants next week, I think folks will be a little more excited!

5 digit kind of cash for this game.
triple the amount on the chargers game.
i guess the win was expected against the Vikings.
the Giants are a different story.
keep in mind.... i'm saying bet on this spread, it does not mean the Eagles gotta win, although it would be a bonus as the Panthers should be a piece of cake in the NFC final.
Donovan is healthy, the defence is doing it..... lets go Eagles!

Tom Coughlin is the most annoying coach in the NFL. Every single game, totally red-faced, barking at the refs, making stupid emotional calls... the players have got to be sick of that stuff. I'd shoot myself in the leg before playing for that guy.

E - A - G - L - E - S - EAGLES!!!!!

Not even one year for maybe a $million?

Kurt Warner is older than, well older than, Bruce. Talk about a stationary target.

nfl - nfc final

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

arizona cardinals vs philadelphia eagles[-3.5]

tell me please, how did arizona make the play-offs?
they beat the 49ers twice
they beat the rams twice
they beat the seahawks twice
in the play-offs, they beat one of the worst defence's in the game falcons, and an overall mediocre team in the carolina panthers.
arizona has not beaten a team that is at least, par.
the eagles at this time, on both sides of the ball, are well above par.
this game will not be close......

bet on the philadelphia eagles

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

afc final

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

pittsburgh steelers[-6.0] vs baltimore ravens


as an eagles fan, i hope for a steelers win here, that'll set up an easy superbowl win for phillie.
the chargers defence ,did not attempt to pass-rush the steelers last week.... i have no idea what they were thinking.
i can guarentee you that the ravens will be pass-rushing most of the time.
the steelers ol will not be able to stop them, leading to sacks and interceptions.
come sunday, the ravens will make it very clear which team has the superior defence.
jump all over this spread.

bet on the baltimore ravens

whip - Did you see the Giants pulling stunts about a third of the time trying to get pressure on McNabb? The Eagles OL did a really good job picking them up. . . well after the safety anyway. : Shrug:
