Yup that was scary. Just collapses to his knees.
That's some scary stuff man. I think in the future, they might make it illegal to pick up a teammate if he's not able to stretch out his hands for help.
Yes, indeed. I think it will happen. I see extensions for Talib and Wendell before free agency, and Spikes is allowed to walk, probably to the Giants.
Figured it was it for the season. Then again I think that's it for the season anytime he gets hit. Austin Collie ruined me in this regard!
He's gambling on himself to get paid and it's so far he's winning. I see him hitting free agency with the Pats getting first dibbs.

He wants to get seriously paid and I'm not sure personality wise how he'll respond to a big deal like that, but I would be bummed if they don't try it again. If he shows to that he can keep playing like this he deserves a new deal, an elite CB is hard to find.
They are limiting the big plays and the mistakes, that's encouraging at least. Gonna be interesting to see the next game.
If he chooses a massive deal with the Raiders next season instead of an okay deal with us, that would show how he approaches the game and why he's playing it.
Why the Giants?

Media Translation: HAKEEM NICKS BITCHES ABOUT NOT GETTING THE DAMN BALL, CALLS OUT ELI MANNING!
Fuck him.
I don't normally buy the "chip on your shoulder" crap but Dwyer (#27) really showed some fire last night. Guess getting no interest from any team spooked him.
If it takes getting cut and almost thrown out of the league to get a guy to play at the intensity it takes to make blocks and blitz pickups then he probably doesn't belong in the league.
I can just envision it. Giants desperately need better linebackers and I can see Boston radio going nuts on Belichick for being 'cheap' and letting Spikes go to a rival team.
I'm not totally worried about Talib getting a deal the Patriots refuse to match because of the combination of his off-field issues, the depressed market for cornerbacks this offseason, and the large number of free agent corners in next year's market. In addition Talib, I think guys like DRC, Brent Grimes, Tillman and Jennings from the Bears, Sam Shields, and most of the 49ers' CBs are all unrestricted free agents.
So you're new to this professional athlete thing..
I've cursed ever players Jersey that I've bought so I'm waiting now always till they retire.

Collie would've been such a beast as a slot receiver if his head wasn't going to explode during a tackle.
Watching tape, it seems they've really focused on defending the big plays, where they got burned a lot last year on. I see the CB's letting a lot of stuff fly underneath in order to protect being beaten on long bombs.

Too easy to bunch them all in 1 group. Although team loyalty is not really a thing in US sports.

You're just mad.
I am mad but we really need to start cutting the dead weight.
The team has definitely taken steps to get Ben in line but it should be the whole team, including the coaches.

We already started - last season. Harrison, Hampton, Starks, Colon.
Dwyer's only back with the team because of depth.
If you want to be mad at a running back, I suggest Redman.Has not shown anything worth getting excited for even once this young season.

I expect tonight's game to be close. It feels like a trap game.
Yaz had this to note: http://espn.go.com/blog/tampa-bay-buccaneers/post/_/id/613/josh-freeman-not-in-good-company
That's my Quarterback. Out there shattering records.

Anything could go wrong! It's the Raiders but still...
It definitely meets the definition of a trap game.
His grandmother also died, he said he was playing for her.
I was glad to see Bradshaw have success yesterday. The guy certainly deserves it.
Who is ur team again?
Yeah, it's the perfect formula for a trap game, but I don't think my brain can even process the basic concept of Terrelle Pryor beating Peyton Manning.
If Flacco or Schaub can do it, anyone can.
How bout that poor excuse for a block on that fumble td in the 4th

Pretty sure that eznark cut off his father in laws finger when he showed up at his house with a Bears jersey on or whatever the hell sets him off.
Technically you are right that it was the power tool that cut off the finger, but I believe eznark was the guy who turned it on.

It's not an impossible game. Raiders actually hung with the Broncos for the 1st half in both games last season before falling apart in the 2nd half. Well actually the 2nd game the Broncos only won 26-13, probably weren't giving full effort though. But even with our atrocious D last year, we kept Peyton on his toes through the first half of both games, just need to continue to do it through the 2nd half tonight. With Clady being out, Peyton is gonna be pressured and despite popular opinion his game does falter, specifically when being pressured from his blind side. But he's gonna make plays and move the ball, that's a fact. We just have to try to limit the big ones and take a bend, not break approach on Defense.
On offense we can grind it out and eat up a lot of clock while keeping Peyton off the field. This is the first running QB and option offense they have faced, so it's gonna be a test for their defense as well. It's gonna be a closer game than people think. I'm not gonna say that we will win it, but I think we'll make it a game at the very least with a chance to come away with a win.
