Yes, Ben is a big question mark, but even when they were healthy and at HOME, they only beat us by a TD. That was during the streak where Brady was playing like crap as well. They were barely able to beat CLEVELAND yesterday. CLEVLAND!

I stand corrected, yea, I saw the Cleveland score and highlights from yesterday, IMO the ankle is a huge issue for Ben, looked like he couldn't put a good throwing motion together with the injury, all the better, our D need all the help it can get!..

Interesting day of football.

Even though the Lions have had an amazing year, I was still surprised to see them give GB such a difficult game. Flynn did great for a back-up quarterback who hasn't played hardly a snap since graduating from college. Almost 500 yards against the Lions? He's gonna get some great offers from some of the other teams. It'll be a shame to see him take what the Packers have taught him...and use it against them...but that's football.

Steelers looked like shit yesterday. They lived up to their "Pittsburgh Squeakers" moniker. Too many injuries. Denver will give them a tough game. I'll be very surprised if PB comes out on top of that one. (although I'd love to see Tebow get introduced to Harrison.)
Last night's Dallas/NYG game was good. I'm not a fan of either team, but I hate Dallas...always have, but even more so with Jerry Jones as the owner.
Didn't watch the Pats game, but was surprised at how badly they did early in the game...and even more surprised at the size of the comeback.
The play-offs this year will be...interesting to say the least. I'll be surprised if my Packers or Steelers makes it to the Super Bowl.

IMHO the inevitable GB/NO championship game might be better than the SB..

Good news or bad news for Manning in Indy?

The city would burn the stadium down if they let Manning go. I'm still leaning towards him never playing again. If a doctor tells him "you risk a spinal or neck injury if you get hit hard", he would be an idiot to get back on the field. And he's no dummy.

Flynn played at least one quarter earlier this year. Maybe more. Granted, it's always garbage time, but he's looked quite good

Hey, who knows, if the Giants D front can perform at a high level and keep the score reasonable Manning has shown he's a fourth quarter stud and the running game is coming around too, still for anyone to beat NO in that dome will be tough, dome's should be banned IMO, it's football, play outdoors!..

Screw you! Open air stadiums anywhere north of Southern Tennessee should be banned. WTF is wrong with you people? Don't you know that football runs into this little thing called fucking winter? I love watching the retarded ass Packers fans at a game wearing 15 layers of clothes and wrapped in 4 blankets during a fucking blizzard shivering their damn fool asses off.

That's why we have a dome, when we built it we considered that little thing called weather.

Do not let that score fool you. Pats sucked on all sides of the ball in that game. Sure, the final score looked like it was close, but if you watched it, that game was a game that Bill will file under "do not show again". That said, I feel more confident with the pats going against Pitts. Histrionically, the pats ALWAYS have issues with the Ravens. If they win against the Ravens, it is usually an ugly win.

Yep. that's what I said as well. It was a bad game for the Pats. Real bad. And the score was still close. Pitt was playing well, was pretty healthy, and playing at home against a NE team that was playing terrible.

If they face them in the playoffs, it will be a Steelers team that is pretty beat up, and at Foxboro. NE is playing really well, except for the first quarter or so. Even the defense had a pretty good second half. Don't see how Pitt can win this game. If they were playing anybody but the Broncos, I'd say they'd go out in the first round.

I agree about BAL as I said above. That's gonna be a tall order. At least it will be in Foxboro.

That's the only game this season I didn't see - the power outage from the Halloween storm. That being said, the Patriots usually go down to Pittsburgh and do really well, somehow. The Steelers don't worry me nearly as much as the Ravens.

Fuck that, football is a cold weather, outdoors sport. Go play basketball.

To be fair he has a strong resume, but has made some pretty dumb decisions over the last few years.

Chris Polian was given player authority around 2007 and that's when their drafting started really sucking. Bill's biggest issue was defending him.

What does that have to do with the actual playing of the game? If you want to see chicks, a football game would not be the first place to start....

if that's the reason you spend big bucks to watch a football game in a stadium, then you're more retarded than i took you for.

Did you and the next poster miss a very key word in the sentence "bonus".

Edit: If you don't consider extra cleavage and short shorts worn by hot females a bonus at just about any event, especially one in which copious amounts of alcohol are consumed, you should probably turn in your man card.
