I think I have fallen into the trap I fell into last year. Pats defense is terrible, but I have somehow convinced myself they have become half way decent with Talib. I'm afraid tonight is when I get smacked back into reality.

Happy Brandon Jacobs cut day!
...was he actually cut? I saw a tweet that he was "no longer with the Niners" but this could be very similar to the Rolando McClain situation. i.e suspended for conduct detrimental to the team.

As to lazy - has there actually been any reports of his being lazy? (genuinely curious) I know he was injured in the preseason...

Don't worry, he'll be in jail by the end of the month and you won't have to think about it anymore.

I read yesterday that he was going to be cut, but isn't official yet. It's why he lost his mind on twitter. As for lazy, I've always just assumed. Dude tends to run soft for such a big guy.

He needs to sign one of those one day contract things and retire as a Giant. Nothing more odd to me than seeing him a Niners uniform.

EDIT: He's not been officially cut. Suspended for the last three games of the season:

@MaioccoCSN: Brandon Jacobs has been suspended for 49ers' final three games of the regular season.

Which essentially means cut when all is said and done unless they plan to bring him back during the playoffs.

Jacobs was finished when he was still with the Giants.

He's not the old Brandon Jacobs, and he's slow to accelerate (part of the problem was our line didn't give him any holes at all last year) but he was the fire to Eli's ice and he and Bradshaw were both very strong at blocking defensive ends out of the backfield.

Union will probably appeal this, I also wouldn't mind it if he gets a role in the Giants staff like Charles Way did.

Guess he can stop rotting away(lol what he said on instagram)
 
So, as a Colts fan, Im not sure where Im at tonight. I think I have to root for the Patriots, but just the thought of it makes me sick. Lesser of two evils right now I guess.
 
The Cam Cameron thing is puzzling. All during yesterday's game the announcers were praising Cameron for limiting Rice's carries so that he can be fresher during the late season/playoffs. I assumed that was the plan from the outset and he was doing it with the blessing of the head coach and front office. Now I'm hearing that was one of the bigger beefs against him?

Don't root for either. Root for the Patriots to lose. You are an American first and a Colts fan second.

Texans can beat the Pats and still lose the division.

If the Texans lose the next 3, Colts are AFC South Champs!

Yeah Brandon, I'm sure you're going to have a shit load of teams knocking on your door next year. Just like that big contract you turned down from the Giants to rot with the Niners. Keep thinking that.

Logistics are impossible. Giant blocks of hotel rooms. Police and other services needed to coordinate a game. Not to mention all the scheduling involved with a stadium and the people that run them

Sounds like everyone's just a bit too lazy for me.
