NFL Week 15

[Non_Comformist]

So far I think the biggest games were the Jets beating the Seahawks, a huge loss for them, and the Chiefs beating the Broncos, which may keep them out of the wild card.


Exciting game in Detroit right now against the Vikings. 27-28 pending extra point 8 seconds left.

[craig r]

This may be a dumb question...but can two wildcards come out of the same division?

[Non_Comformist]

Yes wild card is based entirely on record.

[Michael Davis]

What a premonition.

The extra point is no longer pending. Wow, the Lions really do suck.

I think Harrington has one more season to do something before they give up on him. He may only have 1/2 of next season. They are truly a horrible team though.

Tice is still a moron.

Vikings had ball on 11 yard line; 3rd and 2. 1:40 left in game, Lions NO timeouts.

Here is what a good coach does: He tells the running back that if he breaks for a first down, he needs to get down. Stop running, even if the endzone is makeable. In this spot, Lions cannot stop the clock.

All Vikes have to do is run clock down to 0:05 and kick game winner.

Instead, Vikes score TD and leave time on the clock for their Defense to blow the game.

There was no excuse for that bad coaching. The game should have been locked up, but they had to rely on the Lions to screw up the PAT.

Dumb. Tice should be packing his bags this weekend.

Note: I did not lay the 3 points, so this is not motivated by Vikes not covering. I bet them on the moneyline and also in a teaser.

Big game in Green Bay with the Packers hosting the Jaguars.

The Jaguars scored on there opening drive. They are still fighting for the last wild card spot so this is pretty much a must win with Buffalo & The NYJ winning and Denver losing.

Big game for the packers also. if they lose this week and next week against MIN, i think they will be a WC. And they have to go on the road next week to MIN.

The packers WILL NOT win next week in MIN. No need to worry about that.

[Non_Comformist]

I actually don't think much of GB this year. They strike me as a team on the downswing, still able to beat mediocre teams. I don't expect them to win a playoff game this year. Home or away.

[Non_Comformist]

This a huge game for Jacksonville now. Basically one spot left in the AFC. I'm not certain but I would think this is an elimination game for them. If not absoultely than realisticaly.

[Non_Comformist]

Jaguars score again on a Leftwhich to Smith TD pass.

My opinion Jaguars hold to win 17-10

[craig r]

Hopefully.

As an aside, Leftwich is one tough motherfuger.

I think that's insane.
1) A field goal is FAR from a given
2) If you can't stop Joey H. from going the length of the field and scoring a TD with 1:40 and no timeouts, then your team is a piece of sh!t (They didn't, and it is.)
3) If that's what a good coach does, why has that scenario never taken place in the history of the NFL?

1) No kidding; but with Morten Andersen, its pretty close;
2) Exactly. That is why you do what I suggested;
3) A good coach knows that the goal is to win the game. Therefore, you make choices that give your team the best chance. Case in point: Tenn should have won on Monday night. They did not because Fisher went for a FG on 4th and 1 inside the 10 - EVEN though his team had not stopped KC all night. The play was to go for the first down.

So ... in today's game, you have a totally [censored] defense and the Lion's offense had just shown signs of life. You don't give them the ball back.

You run the clock down, and kick the FG.

[billyjex]

That dude in Green Bay just got laid out hard with that clothesline..

Scary. He's been on the ground for 10 minutes.

[Non_Comformist]

Damn that was wicked

[Peca277]

LETS GO PACKERS!!! (could really care less about them, but I need Jacksonville to lose for the Bills' chances) /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Non_Comformist]

Big win for the Jaguars. It's going to come down between them and the Bills for the final spot.

Unfortunately, they beat the Bills on the very last play of the game early in the season so they've got the advantage. At least the AFC doesn't have teams below .500 in the playoff race.

your team needs to quit wasting their potential draft pick status

[Rounder041]

Ok, basically, it is as obvious as it comes that the Vikes WILL beat teh stupid packers. You know this is the most important game ofteh year and that Randy Ratio is going to dominate. And so clearly, the ticket is not up for grabs.
GO VIKES

[NLSoldier]

OMG dude who is your team!??!?! judging by location it looks like detroit! too bad detroit cant beat us even when we pull our usual cahrade of trying as hard as we possibly can to give the game away!

I hope you guys plan on using your fisrt round pikc on a long snappeR!

[MarkL444]

im not going to defend my team by saying that they are better than such and such or whatever. i will say that they are one of the most 'on the up' teams in the league, and i expect them to be a solid contender for several years to come.

[NLSoldier]

I agree they are on the come up. I will even say that tehy are eaasily the 2nd coolest team in the division.

[MarkL444]

draft kevin jones in your fantasy leagues next year. early 2nd round if you have to, trust me.
