Keeping it within 3 possessions
Eagles should be better next week. I can do without a couple costly Bradford INTs.

Let's not get carried away. A lot can still happen in the season, but the Ravens and Dolphins will not win a division, and the Lions, Bears, and 49ers will not make the playoffs. Just because it's about week 6, don't act like some people's seasons already aren't over.
Yeah for the first drive.

Of course it was! I never said otherwise but don't act like that means fuck all in 2015. You said it yourself, we just don't have the horses. I mean, I want to believe. Don't get me wrong. There's always the chance and that's that carries us week in and week out.
Maybe like a backdoor not cover, 54-35. Agree with rag that a 2011 Saints style ass whooping is incoming
Dat Malcolm Butler
Can we talk about how terrible the 49er defense was and admit the offense was pretty good this week? Anyways, did they even hit Manning more than a couple times? Dude had a clean pocket most of the time and his receivers were RIDICULOUSLY open. It looked like a college defense out there in the secondary. Eli got to choose between multiple receivers who didn't have anyone within 3 yards on most plays. How about blitzing if you aren't getting pressure and the receivers are open anyways.
smh.
smh.

Good thing the Rams have a bye week to fix the offense.

Bell and Brown got this shit tomorrow.
Vick only needed a full week of practice and now he will know to throw to the best receiver in the game.
Bell going to run wild and Bryant going to deliver the dagger.
If only we can get Shazier and Ben back on the field we will be unstoppable.
We got this game and KC will find a way to let us win that one too. They did it for Jay why not us?

I'm talking in context of teams like the Giants who still have the capability of winning their divisions and making the playoffs, and presumed favorites running the risk any given Sunday of major injury ala Brady, Rodgers, Gronkowski in year's past. I doubt even the most optimistic can make a logical case for dumpster fires like the Texans or Lions.

Giants defense suck too, they let Colin Montana move the ball at will in the second half..
Catch the ball! All your DBs need to do is catch the ball and it's a win. When two not good teams play each other, it's all down to the gods of fuckery, and whether they smile upon you. Your team isn't going to get the fuckery this year, just the D
You do realize that he won't be throwing the ball nearly as much in the pros and that at least one of the INTs wasn't his fault, right?
Your entire argument seems to be that he can't play in the NFL because he threw 5 INTs in a game once.

Hey don't be so down on your team, you were able to beat my Jags! And what's so different between the two teams other then us sucking and not cheating, but still being worse then them even if we did cheat?

Eli is a damn good player but don't use this game as an example.
The Niners defense is complete trash.

We could have scored 60 on them WITHOUT BELL AND BRYANT. We did that with DHB and some other scrubs at wide receiver (plus Brown I admit).
The Giants should have blown the Niners out.
Yeah the Giants D isn't great but I didn't see wide-open receivers just rampaging through the secondary on every play. That was embarrassing.
Dat cheating.

I stopped arguing with people about Eli awhile ago. It's not worth it and no amount of evidence will change minds. Two rings later, I just don't give enough of a shit.
ffs I just jumped in when someone said he should replace Kaep because that is just dumb at this point. I think he can play in the NFL but I'm not sure how good he'll be. He has a long ways to go. As for not throwing it as much...I'm not so sure...so many QBs throwing 40+ times a game and it looks to only be on the increase.

welp, in some ways i enjoy being blown out more than a heart breaker but i was encouraged by our offense this game. kap came out of his shell a bit. i still dont think he played great but i mean you put up 27 points you expect to win that game and he had no turnovers. played his best game of the season and made some really nice throws. he played poorly in the first half but overall thumbs up for kap.
our oline was shaky. overall i think they played decent but just too many breakdowns allowing free rushers in. on the 2nd to last play wtf was boone doing!? came right in on kap! i know its unlikely we get into fg range anyways but come on
i already knew we would lose when we left so much time on the clock but you have to score when you can score. was hoping we'd get a patented eli int served up to us and we did but brock just couldn't pull it in (and you need to fucking pull that in)
oh well!

Missed the crazy 3:50 - 4:30 finishes as I was commuting over to family for Thanksgiving dinner.
Missed some craziness it seems.
Chiefs losing in terrible fashion. Was hardly checked into the game as I was focused on RedZone. Figured it was a lock for a win and see they ended up losing when I was checking scores. Just finished watching the condensed 4th quarter. The offence was already dull and drab, and without JC it becomes near impossible to find any excitement. Smith and Reid combo is a complete bore. Put in Chase Daniel for a spark.
Go Blue Jays.

He can play for the Calgary Texans
Agreed, why replace Kaep and ruin your chance at the #1 pick? It's not a deep QB class this year, need to make sure you can get the guy you need.
If you're asking your rookie QB to throw it 40+ times a game you're probably going to be losing. A lot.
Malcolm Butler cheated?
You should be asking who in that organization hasn't cheated instead. Would be a shorter answer.

That's fucking awful. Scummy ass people if that's true.
Malcolm Butler hasn't cheated?
-Chip may have overpaid for Maxwell, but paying him $10m and not having Cary Williams is a decision I bet Schneider wishes he made. He can't be deployed like Darrell Revis, but he's a solid CB. Not a liability
-Herremans, Williams, Boykin. Chip at least knew who sucked. Bradford/Foles different shade of poop. Shady is better than Murray but then Shady is also being really really careful about getting his hamstring 100% right now. Mathews was a good signing and needs most of the reps
-Saints are awful. Brees is done and Payton seemed to not care enough to really hate Rob Ryan as much as he should

Jesus. Disgusting behavior, thankfully he's alive.
What top ten QB doesn't have a top player at RB/WR/TE?

Don't understand how rob has a job. Seems like Rex got the defense gene
Rodgers, I'd argue.
Not meant as a diss, I'm an Eli fan. If he has time he can make every throw.

Played alittle of the battlefront beta and Brehs im in. "The ambience" simply amazing. I never played the original games
I don't think he lasts that long.
Franchise qbs don't get benched unless they are hurt...
Jeff Fisher tried to hire him, but Ryan quit when the Saints job came open. They all hire their friends, so when they get fired and their friends get jobs, the favor is returned
One of the reasons I really like Chip. Coordinators who had Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady are not choices that change organizations.
