Sorry guys but it's time for my beauty sleep.

Nope. Next closest was Newton with 6. Best ratios in week 1 were

Rivers with 5 TDs and 0 picks
Tannehill with 4 TDs and 1 pick
Wilson with 3 TDs and 1 pick
Pharoah Philips with 3 TDs and 0 picks (Wait really?)
Tebow with 3 TD and 0 picks

Are you from the future? If so, does marineking win a gsl?

Damn I'm rusty in BF3. Just bought the expansion packs so haven't played anything yet... some damn cool maps. But it sucks when you suck. I had just unlocked the G36C before stopping awhile back so I didn't have any mods ut I still couldn't hit shit.

Also damn you DM!

I don't want to stay up this late but I'm taking one for the league. Hopefully my boss won't mind if I snooze at my desk tomorrow.

Alright so it looks like we'll play Thurdsay?

When are you usually available, EST time. I'm free on Thursday afternoon between 4-7:30ish.

Glad I got at least one win this season. Just looked at my schedule and I have Broncos, Colts, Raiders, Saints, Broncos, Steelers coming up. I'm coming for you, first pick!

Timms is a pain in the ass to defend. I moved three different cornerbacks on him to try and stop him. Hope you have a big, physical one to slow him down. He can go deep and out jump CBs in coverage to a make a play.

6-8 months. The length of the off-season. I'm game.

ACL surgery recovery always seems to take longer than expected. It seems like a year and a half to two is usually more realistic for getting back to 100%. Plus it's his second tear tear in that knee. "6-8 months" sounds just as honest as Shanahan's "we're not sure how bad it is" proclamation from yesterday.

AP is a freak of nature, him and his bionic leg don't count.

Well somewhere, AP's leg has to be a comparison. Everyone saying "he's a freak" just sounds like an excuse to be negative about the whole thing.

Well it's one incident versus the entire history of ACL surgeries. I don't think it's outlandish to say AP had the quickest and most effective recovery from an ACL surgery EVER in pro sports. In light of that, I think it's entirely appropriate to call his case a freak situation and not expect it to be the norm.

Plus, even with his history of injuries, that was Peterson's first major knee injury. Bobby Griff tore the same ACL he did in college. Guys just don't recover the same from multiple ACL tears as they do from a single one.

I'm not as negative about this as a lot of people are, though. We're getting treatment from, who some people call, the best doctor on sports injuries... Even though he was one of the people who allowed RGIII to get back onto the field. Looking back at a lot of the ACL injuries in football, the average time length has been 9-12 months. While RGIII could possibly miss the year, I still feel good about RGIII playing football this year. I'm not set on the whole 6-8 month time frame that they gave us this morning but I still feel confident that RGIII may play this year, even if he misses a month of regular season. It's January. We're lucky that Summer Camp is 8 months away. Judging from RGIII's attitude, I think he'll do everything necessary to rehabilitate his knee.

He probably won't be as explosive as he has been. Whether it's because of the surgery or that he chooses not too doesn't matter. He still has the capabilities to be a fantastic quarterback. I'll wait till later today/this week to start to worry or feel optimistic since the surgery hasn't even happened yet.
 
Drizzler I'll be around when it advances, but I want to get my practice in first cause if I lose I won't be in the mood to do that. So what if we set for 10 CT? (assuming it gets done well before)

The Shanahans are going to have to transform him into a pocket passer who can run, versus a running QB who can also pass.

I didn't even remember RG3 had a similar injury in college. That doesn't bode well for the future. Could happen again.
