What I need tomorrow:

Raiders win + Broncos loss

OR (Preferably)

Raiders win + Bengals loss + Titans loss + Jets win

6th seed is an easier path than 4th seed.

What I need tomorrow:

IND WIN + STL LOSS

Given that you lose another first round pick in the Carson LOLmer trade if you make the playoffs would it not be better in the long run for you to miss out?

How is Cinci/Baltimore not the 2nd live game on sky.I'm sick of seeing tebow and the Broncos while Cincy need a win to get in the playoffs and the Ravens need a win to take the division title,it'll be a much better game than Broncos/Chiefs.

Griffin or Luck.If your the 1st team in the draft that needs a QB who do you pick?At the start of the season I'd never heard of Griffin and Luck was a lock for #1 but after seeing how well Cam Newton has done in the NFL and Griffin looking just as good a QB as him I think i'd pick him over Luck now.His bowl game win a couple of days ago showed how good he is.

I'm taking RG3. I've said on here a while back that i'm a big fan.

Luck played in a pro style offence at Stanford so he'll be better from the get go and will be the number 1 pick IMO. I don't think Griffen would be in that discussion.

RG3 will IMO eventually be the better QB, taking time to develop. He's accurate with the pass (completion % and TD:INT ratio) and is good on the run. The offence he played in at Baylor though limits what reads he makes so that'll have to develop some before he can get his accuracy etc up. I think he can do it though because he is an intelligent guy (accepted to law school IIRC).

If you want him to start straight away it depends whether you can afford to go through some growing pains with RG3 or just want to Luck to come in and be good straight away.

We only give up a 2nd first rounder if we make it to the AFC Title game, that's unlikely.

Anyone who has Rodgers or McCoy in your fantasy teams...unlucky

Re: The All new NFL Chat thread including playoff talk : Sun Jan 01, 2012 4:47 pm  

Parcells saying one crew has assessed 800 more yards in judgement call penalties than any other, bet it's Triplette, that man is utterly clueless and should not be in charge of an NFL game.

Good luck to you to pal! So long as i beat Mark each year I'm happy with my performance.

On the Packers resting Rodgers (and Matthews/Woodson/Cobb and a few others who will play very little) I think it is a HORRIBLE idea. Our whole run has been about momentum and being able to blow teams away. We have looked pretty average by our own standards for the last few weeks. We got beat by the Chiefs, didn't look great against the Bears and our last big win was against Oakland on the 11th Dec.

We should have used the game to give Godgers and co the first half to get some rythm together and have a little fun with some calls then pulled them. This way we are going into our play-off game. Rodgers first ever at home, having not played very well for 1 month. Very bad idea.
