they did it again last hight...called penalty for " hitting " guy out of bounds. first of all, cushing never hit him, not really. sunday the giants had two of those calls agaisnt them and i swear the guy still had his feet on the playing field when he got " hit".....the refs are way tooo quick to whistle that , especially on a QB running...

true. he did look like different guy out there.. maybe he has grown in to the job.. hope so for him..

Think about this....NO team tried to pry VY away from the Titans this summer or this fall. No one! with a shortage of QBs and they did not get any offers.... tells me there were 31 other teams not sold on the guy either..he may work out long term...too early to know what he is yeet. they really limit what they ask him to do..

jeff fisher is no fool...i would not question his decision. maybe young is ready now, but do not mistake him for an elite qb. last night was typical. throw for 115 and run for 75. when his defense is good he will be fine. i cannot think of one game this year they lost he would have won. there are a lot of guys on the defense getting healthy, the timing was right..VY can be a decent nfl starter, but at this point he is not even top ten..but that is ok. he had a ong ways to go, i think fisher saved his career.. look up his stats before this year and you will know. he was throwing twice as many ints. as tds and his accuracy and decision making was very questionable. any coach would have sat him as long as they had a viable option behind him..

The best Thanksgiving game I ever watched when i ws a kid was the game between the packers and lions with those guys, and roger brown on the D line with Karras vs. Starr and his group. smash mouth football... great stuff..1963 i think..

Alex Karras.....Mongo!...the 63 yard Dempsey FG to beat them, and the year he lost playing for betting on his team with hornung on who would win the game...

agree. you got to like the lions.how can you not?

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

i think you would have to change the name of that game to just bowl-nothing super about it...

yeah, his contract was in the last year and they figured something was better than nothing..which is true.. the price of FA..

the thing about the cards is that their owner Bidwell is one of the stingiest, cheapest, a##ho##s in all of sports ownership......AND he moved the team out of St. Louis.. for more money in the land of sun...I HATE and owner who moves his team...

yeah, but the original browns won championships in the old american football conference then in the nfl 1964. the saints-never..not even close..

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

no seymour....that is the price you pay.. got the draft pick, but it is of no help this year..i still would not have done it..

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

there ya go. just for film of the strett party it would be great..

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

the saints were sooo bad for so long...remember when they all wore the bags over their heads for years. and then ditka trades all his picks for one running back-williams...that has been one sad franchise for a long time..man, can you imagine the partying that would go on down there on bourbon street? i would watch film of that.. lol

so the question is, what team that has never won a superbowl, or even been in one would you like to see finally win it? if youir team was not in it of course..

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

they can do what they want. it is just as big a risk for the offense as anything. someone could take a cheap shot at a player. if someone gets hurt on that play or pulls up lame, then the screaming would really start..

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

I just think they are a better team right now..It will be curious to see how belichick schemes to try to stop them. not susre anyone can if you do not get to brees. nobody.

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

I just want to see it. Don't care who wins. common sense tells us it should be a 42-40 game..Watch it end up a defensive struggle..lol

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss

Heck with this story. The game coming up with the saints is the game of the year so far. Should be a beauty..

If that is what it takes for the League to act responibly, then it is a good thing. The players want a third party ( their own doctor) involved. Whatever is nece3ssary to make the League fix the problem is a good thing.
If politicians and lawyers had not got involved in a lot of things ( like conditions for miners just one example ) then you can bet conditions never would have changed for the better there. The Mining companies were not going to change on their own......
