Raiders at Cowboys | Thanksgiving/Week 14 Gameday Chatter Thread | 11/28/13

Been a funny year. Both Pittsburgh and the Giants are descending into the pits of hell.

I like it.

 

[Smitty]

I just hope Deuce recognizes it.

 

[Simpleton]

Tyron wasn't worth the pick, better at RT, something, something.

All in all, the magic number is 2 for the last game of the year to be win and you're in, I believe it's 4 for us to clinch the division, assuming the Skins game is one of the wins. We'll still likely get our asses beat in the 1st round but whatever.

You have a lot of faith in the Eagles dominating the rest of their schedule. I'm not so sure that they will.

 

[Bob Roberts]

All time worst

 

[Texas Ace]

Yeah, I was like nope, then I was like, wut?

That is exactly what went through my mind as I watched that play unfold as well.

 

[BipolarFuk]

So jealous of Ravens' crowd.

Eagles are a lot less predictable than we are. As crazy as all our games are, we beat losers and lose to winners with amazing consistency. Eagles you never know what you're gonna get and who they'll beat and who they'll lose to. However, here are their remaining games:
Cardinals - LOSS (zona is simply a better team) 6-6
Lions - LOSS, 6-7
Vikings - WIN, 7-7
Bears - LOSS, 7-8
Cowboys - WIN 8-8

Meanwhile, here's us:
Bears - LOSS 7-6 (the Bears are better and Romo is always confused by their scheme)
Packers - LOSS 7-7 (I know the Packers are a losing team but once Rogers gets back they will likely turn it around)
Redskins - WIN 8-7
Eagles - LOSS 8-8 (we actually make the playoffs in this scenario because we would be 5-1 in the division and the Eagles 4-2. If it falls this way, we might pack this game in and run out Orton to avoid injuries going into the post-season)

 

[data]

That redskins game looms large

 

[data]

Isn't that illegal man downfield on the Steelers? Two OL run out 5 yards downfield before the screen pass is thrown out to Bell in the flat

 

[data]

THen again, I guess if the head coach is allowed on the field during a kickoff return, rules don't apply to the Steelers

 

[data]

...and there's Mike Tomlin again with two feet on the field of play.

 

[Carl]

Does every NFL game have the same number of cameras, same number of views/ reviews for every play? If not, there should be no replays in the NFL.

 

[data]

I go QB sneak on 4th down

 

[Carl]

Just dump replay FFS, and I'd also outlaw timeouts. I don't understand their purpose. Rewarding the ill-prepared?

Get rid of FGs while you're at it.

i predict the Steelers get the onside

Why are there timeouts in Sports. Explain.

 

[Bob Roberts]

Why would you predict that

 

[Texas Ace]

Why are there timeouts in Sports. Explain.

Are you asking yourself in hopes of convincing yourself that timeouts are necessary?
