2011-12 NFL Season

[salsadancer7]

The Bills get killed by Dallas, Bengals finally play a tough game and lose...

...it's that time of the year where teams start coming back down to Earth...

 

[salsadancer7]

And the Dolphins have played themselves into the Landry Jones sweepstakes.

Salsa, did you watch "A Football Life" with Al Davis the other night? It was very good and so was "NFL Top 10 Raiders" but I dont know who they picked for number 1 because I fell asleep.

 

[Jimbo]

Amazing...statistically and mechanics wise...he just ain't that good. But some how, the team finds a way to win.

The Tebow affect.

2 of 8 for the day ....thats 25% thats even low for him ...

The only thing Tebow did to 'find a way to win' was not turning the ball over the 8 times they did let him throw it. This game was won in the trenches on both sides by Denver.

2 turnovers on the Lions first two possessions, both by Burilson....
Personally, I would sit him for the next series.

First one was Calvin Johnson.

We better not lose to Miami next week.

I hope you destroy us! Miami is winning themselves out of a possible franchise qb. Unbelievable .

Raiders......5-4
Broncos.....4-5
Chiefs........4-5
Chargers....4-5

One of these teams will host a playoff game the weekend of Jan. 7-8.

Hmmm, I thought it was Burlison, oh well, they are playing thier typical crappy 1st half.

Ya but without a doubt 4 of those drops were the fault of the receivers. and 1 of those was just great defense to stop decker.

 

[Jimbo]

Avg. Starting Field position for the Bears in the first half so far, the 50 yard line.

That explains why Detroit is trailing again by 13, that said, most of it was brought on by themselves.

Yes I did. It was very good. I have new fond respect for Davis

Lions have that same problem in the first half today in Windy Chicago.

The Broncos(Jets), SD(@Chi), KC(@NE) and the Raiders @Minn jave non-conference games. I would say, the Raiders have the least toughest game on paper...but we all know the game is not played on paper...

 

[Jimbo]

Amazing ... the Lions have had EVERY call and bounce go against them today, so far.

 

[Jimbo]

In the Lions game, Cutler tried to throw a pass, was knocked away before hand, becoming a fumble, but both teams thought it was a incomplete pass, thus neither team picked the ball up, it was a LIVE ball.

They reviewed it and gave it back to the Bears as they were the last ones to have it and called it incomplete, I guess.

Now the announcer said the Lions had recovered the ball, but I think not seeing the gave the ball back to the Bears.

 

[Jimbo]

Typical Lions, start the 2nd half trailing 20-6 ...

 

[meStevo]

Nobody recovered it, have seen that call before. They also blew the whistle before someone would have recovered, which would have made it a dead ball.

Maybe the blown whistle is the reason no one recovered it, if THATS the case, the Refs blew the call.....
