NFL - Week 9

Post by Phlegm »

Culpepper is out for the year so the Vikings will suck even more now. Roethlisberger just had his knee scoped so he will be out this weekend and possibly next weekend also. Batch will start for Pittsburgh instead of Maddox. Niners is starting their third string qb this weekend due to injuries. Terrell Owens also may miss two games.

Best game this week will be the Colts vs. Patriots on monday night.

I actually don't think the steelers will see much drop off with Batch

he's the same type of QB (mobile, relatively accurate passer) and now that you don't have to rely on him to win the game, just not lose it, he should be ok

amazing how a good running game can make any QB not named Vick seem pretty good

well
there's always an exception to prove the rule


Seriously, I think Maddox is owned by the mafia or some shit

giving away the Jag game this year, and the houston game 2 years ago could NOT be accomplished unless you were trying to lose


and trying very hard to lose

Jax matches up very well with Pitt. Plus trying to throw in 25 mph winds is a recipe for disaster.

Maddox played bad, but he's a better QB than Batch. There is a reason he is a third stringer.

What happens by some bizarre happenstance if the Steelers get down 14-0 and can't just run the game down?

Green Bay is mediocre, but a mediocre team with Brett Favre is still dangerous. Especially at home.

You're right of course, except for Green Bay being mediocre. The Browns are mediocre. The Titans are mediocre. Green Bay down right blows this year, which is perhaps only because of their crippling injuries, but they blow none the less. Their run defense won't be able to stop the Steelers, and without viable options at wideout, you'll see Farve throw another 4-5 interceptions "trying to make something happen."

On any given Sunday. Although you're correct that Green Bay ain't a good team. The Browns and Titans are actually worse than the Pack, save the Pack has been more decimated by injuries.

Green Bay is still a dangerous team because Favre can still light a team up. I remember them pasting 52 on the vVkes a few weeks ago. 52 on any NFL team is an accomplishment.

er, they beat the saints 52-3, and that was with Ahman Green. The Vikes beat them. Albeit by a last second 56 yard field goal, the Pack was nonexistent in the second half.

I honestly don't think that Jax would have even been in the ball game if Roethlisburger was playing

not that I think Big Ben is a fantastic quarterback, but just that maddox is that terrible

ps, maddox is the number 2 guy because he practices like Dan Marino
it's unbelievable how good he looks until you put some pressure on him, jeje


pps Batch is now the #2 guy unless he gets hurt. Batch was good enough to start for 4 years, and I think he's a good fit in the steelers scheme

Terrell Owens was suspended today indefinitely by the Eagles for conduct detrimental to the team.

Some other retarded team will pick up TO. You can't deny his production.

763 yards and 6 td's in 7 games is pretty damn nice. That figures to what... 1600 yards and 12-13 td's over a full season?

Someone will always put up with him. You just might see some behavioral conditions in his next contract. :p

This week almost all the team that supposed to win did win. No big surprise. Joey Harrington really doesnt look good with the Lions though.
