Around the NFL (Regular Season Finale)

[Kalisto2010]

Now everyone understands the potential dangers of leaving in your starters in meaningless games. I remember back in the 80's, the starters were almost pulled immediately if a team already secured a first round bye. Wes Welker is a tough dude. Most receivers wouldn't dare expose themselves in order to make plays for their team. Wes does it day in day out.

That was as brutal of a hit as I've seen in a while. The entire Steelers sideline reacted immediately to get help.

I love watching the Giants look so hapless. The way they have mailed it in is really an indictment on their leadership and coaching staff. Just terrible. Makes me smile.

ESPN reporting Zorn will be fired tomorrow. Shocker.

This came up the other day. We have the weakest strength of schedule and thus win any tiebreaker. If we tie Tampa and KC, we draft third.

Not sure if he is a F/A , Miami traded for him before the year ?

[Kalisto2010]

Sheez Matt Leinert is terrible. His throws are so predictable.

Yeah, I was about to say that I definitely don't want to trade for him.

[CRedskinsRule]

KC suddenly is up 37-24 over denver. Boy will J McDaniels be next years JZ?

Congrats on the nice shutout. However, it doesn't mean a thing if you don't do it again next week.

[Dirtbag59]

I will say this about the J-E-T-S. If it wasn't for their offensive line there is no chance they are competing for a playoff spot in week 17. Thomas Jones has 1,300 yards with a 4.4 average and 12 TD's through 15 games. And Shonae Green has 478 yards with a 5.0 average. Sanchez could easily develop in the next two years but if they have any hope of getting to the Super Bowl they better hope he does.
