Can Tebow catch?

Hell yeah Tebow can catch. He did play a couple of series at WR last year with Orton if my memory serves me correctly.

Sorry I'm late. Blame iOS and iPhone 5 week.


Anyway.

On the Monday night game. Good win. The Dome was loud as fuck in the first half. Loudest I've heard it since the Green Bay playoff game. Defense came to play. I like what Nolan did. If BVG was still calling the shots, the defense would have play scared the whole night and gotten skinned like fresh wild rabbit. It seemed to me that McGahee was the catalyst that keep the Broncos in the game. Kinda worries me the success they had running the ball on us, but I'm hoping that's mainly a byproduct of us being in nickle most the time. The offense was kinda disappointing, but I think credit needs to be given to the Denver D. It appeared that they were determined not to get beat deep or let our receivers get pass them as they always kept safeties back. Was very surprising at how Peyton played in the 1st qtr. Respectable how he came back from it though.

2-0 and on top of the division right now. I'll take it.


Oh and that OP is gold Jerry, gold!

This is a fair assessment.

I could see Tebow being a pretty good TE.

I think the Patriots will lose this Sunday. The loss of Hernando is too much.

I agree, 1-15 future!
Then Belicheat will trade away your first round pick for more picks.

It should be a good game but I think they'll rebound. I could definitely see it going either way, though. Part of it just depends on which Flacco shows up.

Has anybody ever told you that you are really funny? Original too.

How often do they play a two TE set? Is it a majority of all their plays?

Say what you want about belicheat but he's a better drafter than the abortion that is the Carolina Panthers organization. Yeah go ahead and draft four QBs in a draft, and trade a future first rounder for the chance to draft Armanti Edwards.

Get on board North Dakota!

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Yes, their entire O is based on it. That's why they signed all those TEs and just signed Winslow to 'replace' Hernandez. They signed enough TEs to have backups for both Hernandez his role and Gronk his role, because after Gronk got injured last year they found out they need both of them to make it work.

I read though that McDaniels (FIRE MCDANIELS) based the entire offense around Hernandez and his versatility. Losing him forces them to change the entire offense. Might get Welker more involved.

Lol, everyone that votes on Sportsnation or posts on ESPN comments section hates the Jets. That's no surprise.

Lol @ WR

The Wii U just doesn't excite me in the slightest. I give Nintendo credit for hiring third parties to make new IPs for the system. Mostly because they rarely do anything innovative with their more popular series, like 2D Mario. ZombiU would excite me if I hadn't played a billion other zombie games in the last three years.

Eh. I definitely dont agree with this.
While Nintendo does stick to tried and true IP's, they make tons of changes to gameplay, character designs, themes, music choices, and occasionally even genres. They like to experiment with different elements of gameplay and apply it over several IP's.

Nah. But I just don't get the appeal of playing the 10th version of Mario Kart and the 30th version of 2D Mario. Where are the interesting games?

Lots of games are interesting, even on the wii. What are you referring to here?
Whats interesting to you is probably a game I wouldnt buy in the budget bin. And vice versa.

 

[Futurevoid]

Tonights scab refs will be the same that handled the Baltimore/Philly game for those interested.

Here's the breakdown of the head refs that are known (and I'm assuming folks here know who any of these guys are to begin with :jnc)

I guesS I will have to watch this game from my phone at work.
Unless its on the flat screens.

So ready

I mean we can do list wars but the New Super Mario Bros. series is just an example of the actual dearth of new ideas there. Do you realize if they made a LBP game with Mario controls how much amazingness that'd be?

The only reason I bought the Wii was for Xenoblade Chronicles and now I play that on Dolphin so yeah.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Did you know The Wire was based on Larry's life?

 

[Future PhaZe]

Larry Fitz against the niners..maybe another 0 day for him in fantasy I have no backup receivers..

You obviously enjoy a different type of gaming that I do. Its not something worth arguing about, especially not in NFLgaf. To be honest I dont think anyones opinion would change in the slightest so its ultimately a wasted argument. Besides, the WiiU sales will determine whether the public accepts it or not.

Xenoblade is a great game. The first RPG I have ever played and Im enjoying it.

We'll see. I'm giving him one more week on my team!

I don't remember hearing about pictures of fecal matter on The Wire. Then again, I've never watched The Wire.

 

[cajunator]

Was Hernandez really that crucial to the Pats offense?

 

[Bowser]

Sounding like J-Stew won't be going tonight...ugh

Yeh we are playing Philly this week....might try to catch some of the game today, nothing better than pretending to write important emails at work while having gamepass on instead.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Was Hernandez really that crucial to the Pats offense?

Yes, like I said, they modeled the O around him this year. Last year it was Gronk/Welker and this year it should have been Hernando.

 

[Striker]

Sounding like J-Stew won't be going tonight...ugh

I wonder if we'll see former Tar Heel Marvin Austin. He was active but didn't get any snaps last week vs. Tampa. I'm still not sure if Carolina goes pass-happy or runs the ball like last week. They're a strange team to predict.

 

[TheFatOne]

I think the Patriots will lose this Sunday. The loss of Hernando is too much.

Pats will beat the Ravens because Flacco is not a good QB. Pats win by 2 TDs at least.

Was Hernandez really that crucial to the Pats offense?

Yup. He was supposed to be the focal point of the offense this season or that is what you heard before the season started.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

What is this?! You're supposed to be way more negative than me! Love the avatar btw

got tix to the Pats/Ravens game at the 50 yard line. Hyped for a shootout

I'm nervous about the game, but the Ravens generally find a way to lose against the Pats. The only thing that worries me is that the Ravens are playing at home. Flacco just doesn't scare me at all, and if the Pats defense is really improved they should win this game even if the offense struggles.

I must have missed that play. Does anyone have a link for the gif?

SWEET! Enter DeAngelo into my starting lineup.

Alot of OT threads seem to ban-bait right now, I wanna nibble but I fear the repurcussions.

It will come done to the D I guess, let's hope Fire McDaniels finds his rhythm and the O starts off well, to silence the crowd a bit. I don't know man.

Also, I think the .gif is from somewhere last season or maybe even the year before that, just found in on my computer and had to share it.

 

[tmdorsey]

I'm actually picking the Panties to win tonight, although I won't be mad at all if they took an L.

1. Read the thread
2. Think of what you want to say
3. Dont fucking say it
