The sportscenters says tebow had the worst game as a qb over the past 3 years, looool. Worse than painter even, lol.

I don't think so. To me there aren't many teams that are currently playing well below their talent level. If anything, the shortened off-season hurt the marginal/good teams as it was difficult to shore up depth and add talent at the fringes but in terms of prep? I don't think so.

The way Eli has been playing it's hard to argue he isn't in that top tier, the ELIte tier if you will.Fixed2BeBroken said:
The dude has pretty much put the team on his back. The team has run for a pitiful 599 yards across the 7 games, at a 3.2 YPC average and we're still a top ten scoring offense.

You'll enjoy next week (Stolen from BBI):
1. TB-NO (II)
2. NYJ-BUF
3. CIN-TEN (not sexy, but 2 teams that will have a say)
4. NYG-NE
5. GB-SD
6. BAL-PIT (II)
7. CHI-PHI
AND..... LSU/Alabama on Saturday, I know you're a Big 12 schill, but that's good football.
cuevas said:
I stopped watching after a quarter or so. How many turnovers did he have? He was certainly ineffective, but I think he only had two turnovers right? 250 yards, a touchdown a pick and a fumble? Christ, Beck was worse than that yesterday against a less talented team.
Oh, Sportscenter? So...QBR or some nonsense?
Welli: Ya, that is a great week of football. It will be spoiled by an annoying Packers loss though.

Yeah it was total qbr. He only had two turnovers.eznark said:

I heard Reid say last night that the Eagles havent practiced once with pads since the season started. I think that is why tackling is so bad this year. The only way to work on that is to put on the pads and hit someone.

Absurd. I've been as hard on Tebow as anyone but he wasn't even the worst quarterback yesterday, much less going back three years.
QBR is a fucking broken joke and needs to go the way of every other fuck-tarded moronic ESPN gimmick and hopefully the way of ESPN itself.
I wonder if Reid will be able to control himself and continue running the ball?yankeehater said:
I feel like the beatdown is going to embolden him to go for the record for pass attempts in a game next week.
There are not a lot of lockouts so it is impossible for us to say as fans, but the NFL (and every sports league) does have periodic down years. See Bucs and Ravens Superbowls. We might see some utter shit for this year and next year, but some young teams will rebuild and we will back to the way it used to be after that.789shadow said:

Goes without saying but the rest of the season is a must-win. I'm not happy the Redskins rolled over yesterday but maybe such an easy victory will let some of dat complacency creep in a bit for Buffalo (wishful thinking).Para bailar La Bomba said:

The Chiefs/LOLPhins game has me worried. It has trap game written all over it.
Double Steelers post time.
I was obviously also right that Hines was holding back our offense. Dude needs to take a seat and only come in in certain situations. I love ya Hines and I hope you make it to Canton, but unless it is a running play or a blowout or a game against the NFC West I don't want you on the field anymore.

A world where both teams are trash. I.E. the real world.
The two teams combine for a point differential of -40. We're only 7 games into the year. GARBAGI-O. Combined, they have scored 27 touchdowns. Equal or fewer than the Packers, Lions and Saints. 5 of their combined 8 wins have come against their atrociously bad conference. Neither of these teams is in any way relevant. This is the equivalent of a 49ers-Seahawks game last year. The AFC West is terrrrrrrrrrrrible.
(That said, the Packers are totally losing to the Chargers next Sunday)

When you take into account reads and decisions it could be right. If he's making the worst possible throw every attempt or running when he shouldnt it's possible.eznark said:

You have to be doing fantastically great, or be on a massive winning streak to become complacent. The Bills fit neither, currently.
But after they pick off Sanchez 3 times and play this game down to the wire (like they always do) they'll cement themselves as the team to beat this year in the AFC East.
Then they'll probably self-destruct in the last part of the season, ending 9-7 and missing the playoffs.
cuevas said:
1. Ok, maybe? But probably not because you'd have to start hammering guys for making bad reads but having it work out.
2. QBR doesn't take into account decision making, it only looks at statistical outcomes.
3. If Decker drags his toe a second longer, all of a sudden Tebow's nonsense QBR is probably the best in history

Hopefully we continue to get our run game going so Sanchez isn't asked to take it all on himself--in which case I can see your 3 pick scenario happening.WanderingWind said:
I do like the matchup against you guys generally though considering our pass D (our run D is leaky somewhat but not too worried). But can we put up points??

Even during the Losman/Pennington years the Jets and Bills have always been great games. Heart attack worthy, sure.
It'll be fun to watch.
That is some horrific analysis there just so you know...eznark said:
Divisional matchup, Chiefs are HOT right now, and Chargers are coming off a bad loss amidst yet another potential season of disappointment, huge motivator. Oh, and this game also decides who's first in the division midway through the season, aka. playoff spot.
It's sad you feel only 10-12 teams are worthy of a SNF/MNF game. I thought you liked football.
How shitty the division is doesn't matter in divisional games.
Both teams are not sucking for Luck. They will try to win the game.
It will be entertaining.
San Diego has already proven this year to be laughably horrible, and that gives the Chiefs more than enough opportunity to steal a game from them. San Diego still has a lot of talent and can fight back. It has the makings of a fun game.

The game certainly might be good (christ I watched all the afternoon games yesterday...punishment!), but it's meaningless. The 20-17 game was a lot of fun. I doubt Rivers plays quite so atrociously this time around though.
A "someone has to win this division" game...so fascinating.
I love how I looked at the terribleness of the teams based on output and achievement and you call it garbage analysis. Then you tell me one team is "hot" and point to motivation and disappointment.
:jnc
At least we have the Rivers face to look forward to.
cajun, I never said it wouldn't be an entertaining game. Last night was super entertaining. The Titans-Colts game was entertaining as hell too. Every game can be awesome on a micro level.

I don't know man... it isn't like Hines isn't able to be effective anymore. I agree that he's the past and Brown/Sanders are the future...but to say that Hines actually hurts the team seems a little crazy to me.bionic77 said:
Are you thinking that him being on the field makes Ben check him more than the new rookies or something?
I thought last season was going to be Hines' last, so I wouldn't be shocked if this ended up being the one to go out on. Maybe he'll pull a "Bus" and Ben will get him the ring he wanted last season and almost got him.
Agree that I'd rather have Brown/Sanders get more reps, but I don't think Hines is bringing anyone down.
Still stewing from yesterday's loss. Mare should have made that chip shot FG, but the loss isn't all on him. We lost the game by going 3-and-out on three consecutive drives in the 2nd half. A defense that's been hardest hit at LB lost two more during the game, and it was obvious that they were gassed. When Gamble had Harvin dead-to-rights on 3rd-and-7 about 6 yards short of the first down on the game-winning drive deep in Vikes territory and whiffed on the tackle, I knew right then and there they would drive down the field. Newton's two fumbles hurt as well, as the Vikes scored two TDs on short fields (16 and 39 yds IIRC; the fumble before half that allowed the Vikes to tie it up hurt the most). And I'm still furious at the phantom holding call on Smith when Cam had run for a first down at our 8-yd line.
Still, Mare should have hit the damn FG. Wasted an otherwise great game (besides the fumbles) from Newton.

From what I've seen, Cam has all the tools for a potential HoF career. He's a one man offense in the way that Peyton is (using different skill sets, obviously). If he proves that he can consistently perform the way he is doing this year, and Rivera decides to pick up some defensive players not made of glass, Carolina could be scary next year.
I know that Hines is holding the passing game because I watch the games. He can't get open anymore, he doesn't have the best hands anymore, and he can't break tackles. The only thing he can still do well is block well and find a hole in the defense and stand there when Ben is scrambling.RubxQub said:
I hate saying it because Hines is one of my favorite players of all time, but he is done and has been done for awhile.

Yep, young Icon's come a long way since Auburn. Things are definitely looking up as he's only going to get better. His support's only going to get better(cut bum-ass wide receivers please) and the D can only get healthier(as I typed that, Davis probably just tore something else on his perpetually broken body).
I like how some people are defending the Chiefs-Chargers game being on MNF. Even I'm having a hard time getting pumped up for it, and I'm a Charger fan.
But yeah, this is another trap game that the Norvals tend to lose. Couple that with all the injuries and I wouldn't be surprised if KC wins.
But I do agree with ez, Packers will lose to the Chargers next week. That'll be their Super Bowl, cuz they sure as heck won't make it to the big game this year.
And the Chargers have shown nothing at all to get excited about this season.

You guys are still a divisional rival, so I hate your guts, but I hate you less than the other teams in our division. Probably has something to do with Jake being your QB for a while. He's still celebrated wherE I live and everybody was pretty devastated when he was cut from the Browns.Grover Cleveland said:

Halfway through the season, and your rookie of the year has gotta be Cam. I am in awe!
Of course, he does have one year pro experience already.

Thing is, the game could not possibly mean less to Green Bay and they have a MNF game against the Vikings following it. I just cannot see them having any real sense of urgency going into the game. They'll sleep walk through the first half, give up three scores to Gates and fall short in a comeback attempt in the 4th quarter when they realize they are supposed to be playing a football game.
