The reason that franchise is a mess is due to Al Davis (may he rest in peace). Seems they have continued his mental strategies of the past with the laughable Palmer trade!

That trade makes me think it wasn't Al coming up with the daft decisions all along!

But if Palmer is worth that much - how much will the Colts get for Peyton in the off season

Not at all true.

We blame the useless referees and the awful coach who took over from Gruden.

The call was correct. The rule is an awful one.

Not going to argue with that, it really is an awful rule.

Just not as bad as the current PI rules...why is it defensive PI if when the ball is underthrown and the WR turns and runs into the DB, is a flag thrown? That to me is just rewarding bad QB play.

We had a beauty of a call go against us yesterday.

The refs called a personal foul against a player for taking his helmet off on the field.
However he did this because he was concussed and didn't know where he was, so badly so that we took him to the ambulance and he didn't play the rest of the game.

sounds like a right jobsworth of a ref that, technically the flag was correct but come on if the bloke has a concussion have a bit of common sense

Well number 1 in the AFC, i have quite a nosebleed.. obviously not going to last but Andy Dalton and AJ Green are beasts and Carlos Dunlap is the best 4-3 end around at the moment. Go Bengals!!
