They don't belong.They don't have the facilities or name to attract potential NFL talent---which basically proves they aren't as good. My point was how fan bases (Alabama) and owners of the tv rights for the SEC (ESPN) shift the argument to whichever way suits them at the time.

Although, I do think Oklahoma is going to beat OSU easily.

LSU beat Alabama on the road. Now, LSU has to play in an SEC championship against Georgia, give bama more film, risk injury, and could lose out playing in the national title while bama sits home and sips hot chocolate. Then, they get another chance at LSU, which at most ties the series 1-1. LSU's first win, division win, and conference win would have meant nothing outside of pride.

I'm sure Rick will be looking for a new job on Monday for biting the dirty southern hand that feeds ESPN.

Maybe he can come back and do that dillusional thing where fans will say "oh, if we didn't make this turnover in this game we would have won" "Oh, they got luck on XYZ play" "well, if we didn't have this injury or this hard schedule". So I'm sure the Eagles are really a good team and should be 8-4.

Meanwhile, they fail to see that EVERY TEAM could do the exact same thing. If only.

Rick Reilly has been on a relative hot streak lately for quality articles. He's channeling his inner Sports Illustrated self.

Also, Marshawn Lynch is a beast.

The losses to the Jets, Lions, and Patriots were total giveaways. But from another viewpoint, a loss is a loss and if they can't close out games, they don't deserve to win them. It really looks like they're righting the ship though. Now that Romo is healthy and Murray is emerging, the offense is really coming together. The defensive secondary really needs to shape up though. A healthy Jenkins is one of the better CBs in the league, and Newman is nowhere near as bad as Cowboys fans make him out to be, but holy crap our safeties...

I'm so excited about Sean Lee though. Man what a great young linebacker.

or it's because they've had the easiest schedule in the NFL.

this guy believes Alex Smith is better then vick, he's not.
he trys to throw stats up, i respond with both players stats.
Vick has pretty much the same stats with 2-3 less games played.

Also last time I checked it was a team game, not a FFL personal stat glory game... Object is to win, right? Smith is doing that this season, Vick is not.

again, you do not base players skill off of how a team is performing. how do you not understand this?

9ers have a better record then the patriots, i guess Smith is a better QB then Brady.

but if you look at the games theyve lost, 3 out of the 4 losses were very close games. some they definitely sould have won (look back as early as the washington game). getting blown out by the eagles is pretty embarrasing when looking how philly has played recently, though. all-in-all, the cowboys have had a decent season considering the fact that theyre not really a contending team by any stretch of the imagination

don't worry, the Eagles will blow out the girls again. that will be our 2nd Superbowl this year.

God fucking dammit with the Matt Forte injury. I was needing his fantasy points.

Also, knocking the ball down is the dumbest strategy on the Hail Mary I have ever conceived. Catch it. If you can knock it down, then you can pick it.

I've never actually done fantasy football, but I'd imagine that if you're a person who watches all the games anyways, you might as well build your own team and prove to other people you know more than them.

Fantasy is a good outlet for me because I really don't have a team in the NFL. There are teams I hate, aka most of the NFC West, the Cowboys, and the Jets, but I don't have a team I like.

I love the stats side of it and I love watching good football from the NFL. I really didn't start fantasy until a couple of years ago, but it's quite a bit of fun. I pretty much just do a cursory look over of the waiver wire once a week and try to find someone who will be consistently better than what I have on the field at the moment, but I'm getting more into it as it goes on.

My QB is my worst position. I was 8-3 and people vetoed my trade for Cam Newton - I was trading Matt Forte and Jerome Simpson - because Cam Newton is a stat beast. Given how much consistency A.J. Green gives me, Arian Foster and Michael Turner, plus I have Jonathan Stewart on the bench.

Yeah, it's becoming more fun. I tend to like players, not the teams, since they're so unlikely to be with a franchise for very long. /shrug

It's also how I stay in contact with my friends from over seas. They can all play Madden or NCAA Football on Xbox. I cannot. Might as well just have fun. Makes about as much sense as playing DOD.

Tim Tebow has definitely said the right things the past few weeks. He wasn't this summer when he was basically fanning the flames of the "START TEBOW!!!"

Tim Tebow plays like crap for 3 quarters and comes out and has a good 4th.

It is unfortunate this man lost his job. Given the injuries to the Chiefs this year at every position that counts, QB, RB, Safety, and Tight End (i.e. the arguable 4 best players on the roster), I don't know how he was canned.

he didn't deserve to lose his job honestly, KC had promise in a weak division, and then the season started.... ALSO FUCK THE BRONCOS AND IT HELPS WHEN JESUS IS KICKING FIELD GOALS FOR THEM..

Bears were looking great a few weeks ago, and then Cutler, now forte... Don't even see us making the playoffs, I'm a sad panda because the window is closing soon on our amazing defense.. altho perhaps we can get help in the draft/upcoming FA and/or trades and beef up our secondary.... Cutler was looking SO GOOD... FML.

Bills had a front-loaded seasons, the Pats win was a fluke by all estimations.

Also, if the Bills beat the Broncos and the Chiefs win out, the Chiefs will win their division and go to the playoffs. lol.

I don't see the Chiefs winning out. Orton is too fluky and inconsistent with his play. One week its 9348759834 interceptions, then next week he has zero. I've never been sold on him being a solid starting NFL QB.

The game Orton won for the Broncos this season was against Cincy, their best opponent by far, and they went with a run-first mentality.

Orton isn't a long-term solution. They have Oakland at home and then AT Denver, which should be an awesome match-up if the Chiefs win against Oakland.

If the Chiefs decide to use the running game first, then they'll do okay, Jackie Battle isn't great, but there is no rhyme or reason to the offense. Their Tony Moeaki is hurt, Jamaal Charles is hurt, and Matt Cassel (just so so) is hurt. They've done okay so far this season to be manage. Romeo Crennel has a stellar defense, even without their best player, Eric Berry, have done okay after a really bad start to the season.

We'll see how it goes, but I hope Fitzpatrick goes off.

CharlieGiteau · Post by **CharlieGiteau** » Mon Dec 19, 2011 10:27 am

I was glad to see the success Fitzpatrick "kinda" has been having with the Bills. I was used to seeing him off and on with his time with the Bengals. While he was never stellar with the Bengals, he certainly has improved. I find myself rooting for the Bills every time I see them play.

As much as I can't stand Carson Palmer, the only reason I root for Oakland is to get our other compensatory pick if Oakland goes to the playoffs and wins a game or two. Other than that, I relish the fact that he's been throwing a bunch of picks, although his last game was pretty amazing in terms of completion %.

Indeed, but I didn't really expect to win a Super Bowl or anything. It's the first time in my lifetime of actually understanding football that the Lions have been slightly above average. I feel comfortable that we have a good chance against any one other than the Saints, Packers, or Patriots. Then again, who DOES have a chance against those teams consistantly?

I still think the Saints are going to win the whole thing. Their offense is next to unstoppable.

I'm just happy we have Stafford and Johnson.
