Also, sources are reporting that Brian Westbrook will not play tonight contrary to previous reports.

This is an open thread for game chat.

Wade Phillips has never won a playoff game as a head coach..he has lost 4 home playoff games.
His longest tenure as head coach was 3 years.
Only once did his record as a HC improve from one year to the next (by 1 game)

Cutler really put his world class arm on display with this drive

long pin point accurate throws. Say what you want about Orton, but he doesn’t have the potential that Cutler has.

Yeah but he has a better attitude

Cutler reminds me of the coach’s whiney son. He is also inconsistent.

cinci's playing good this year.....

they’re 5-2….and one of their losses was that weird pass play to stokley (week 1). Benson leading the league in yards…..and of course……roy williams anchors that great secondary

Cincinnati is Good This Year

And Raf deserves props for calling that back before the season started.

That said, the question is, do the Ravens drop to 4-4? I think they’re better than that, and home field advantage doesn’t matter as much in divisional games. I thought the Ravens were going to take this one.

Wow, looks like they’re now up 17-0. Quite a hole for Baltimore to dig out of.

Chicago is gonna forget to show up a lot..

With Urlacher done for the year they lost their emotional leader. And Cutler shows what he brings to a team..inconsistency and bad attitude. Cutler has great talent and a huge upside but how many bad seasons will it take for him to realize his talent won’t win games for him alone.

They also need a better O-line

Wade Phillips has never won a playoff game as a head coach..he has lost 4 home playoff games.
His longest tenure as head coach was 3 years.
Only once did his record as a HC improve from one year to the next (by 1 game)

For the wildcard race...

That GB loss is huge. If Dallas doesn’t win the division it puts alot of seperation between them and GB if Dallas beats GB.

That with the win over Atlanta and Big D has an inside track at the playoffs.

Doesn’t look like Chicago is going to be a threat either, which helps.

their oline was great last year

but they suffered a couple injuries, and imo, its hard to keep up that mental toughness you need to impose your will in the run game week after week, year after year.

Eli is playing about as well as last year, he just doesn’t have the aid of teh leagues best run game.

Defensively…tons of injuries. Tons of them. Kenny Phillips being done for the year really hurts them – that may be a franchise altering injury if its career ending.

They have Canty back today

And someone else. Can’t remember who. We’ll see how that affects their game.

If their secondary is as bad as last week

it won’t make a difference. Their linebackers aresubpar too, but their dline usually makes up for t.

What is happening to this conference?

GB and Chicago are at 4-4. A win this game and we actually go up 2 games in the wildcard and 1 or 2 in the division. A win the next two weeks and we are in GREAT position to make the playoffs, having tiebrakers over pretty much everyone.

Payton came out throwing every play and N.O. is down by

14 points. They are running again so we will see. Garrett falls in love with the pass to.

but he tends to do that

when we’re trailing.

When we’re leading/tied, garrett is a great playcaller.

by foyesboys on Nov 8, 2009 3:35 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I missed that in the Giants game when we were up and running at 8 yards a pop.

I think both Payton and Garrett are good play callers but they can both fall in love with their passing games.

KICK ASS every day!!!

by squidlo97 on Nov 8, 2009 3:37 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

are you saying we stopped running the ball in the GIants game?

Maybe I misunderstood your post, but 1 stupid pass by Romo shouldn’t be blamed on Garrett. He stuck with the run game throughout. Even when we went down with time running out.

by foyesboys on Nov 8, 2009 3:39 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

It wasnt that game though that pass bothers me.

Last year both over did the throwing. This year he has gone with a more balance attack. Just game frustration coming though.

Sometimes I feel Garrett out thinks himself but Im being picky. I like him and think he has grown quite a bit as an OC.

I think that Atlanta exposed something with the Saints.

They can be ran on, and to me that is probably one of the biggest weakness’s to have as a team.

by The Immortal Iron Fist AKA AFB on Nov 8, 2009 3:35 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Atlanta

magically started running the ball well the last two weeks. They looked bad for the first 6 or so weeks.

Detroits not totally awful

With Stafford, they’re actually pretty good offensively. Above average I think. Defensively they’re awful.

by foyesboys on Nov 8, 2009 3:40 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

If Drew Brees

played for Dallas people would talk about his penchant for turning the ball over.

I’m not hating, he’s a GREAT QB, but he turns the ball over quite a bit and it’s kind of just swept under the rug.

by The Immortal Iron Fist AKA AFB on Nov 8, 2009 3:52 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

you're probably right

he definitely is more turnover prone than the elite qbs like brady and manning.

Brees is pretty similar to Romo imo, but at this point, a slightly better qb.

by foyesboys on Nov 8, 2009 4:32 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Oh I agree...

but if he was in Dallas he would have the big game stigma on him.

Unfortunately, Tony doesn’t always get cut the slack some other qbs get. He has some memorable ones and he has had some days we would all like to forget. There is improvement and he will close the deal in many games this year. Maybe then the memory will get a bit faded.

Eagles have never won a Sunday night game, while the Cowboys are 8-2. Interesting.

In Romo we Trust

wow, really?

let’s not make tonight the first.

I still believe in Romo.

Ya'll remember that Monday nite game

with the Iggs where RW screwed up or made, depending on your viewpoint, everybody’s Tuesday morning.? My family and friends in FW had all gone to bed and so did I. My son called and said get out of bed mom, the Cowboys have the ball!

I hope it doesn’t go to the last minute tonight though. Those kind of games make you age fast.

was that the one that he picked off and ran down the sideline for a TD? and seems like McNabb

came lumbering over to try to make the tackle, and a cowboy (bradie james was it?) absolutely laid the wood to him

by Loozeeana_Cowboy on Nov 8, 2009 6:29 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Nope

Bradie James hit him.

Roy Williams was retuning the interception, not looking for people to hit.

That was also the only game where Peerless Price did squat as a Cowboy.

He had a real long reception early. Hell, I’d almost totally forgotten about him.

by MadMick on Nov 8, 2009 6:45 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

No babe

He just intercepted it I think, IIRC, then the offense had to score, which they did. That was sweet indeed, and funny as hell, as the entire Metroplex had gone to bed, or at least half of them, woke up and read it in the DMN or the Star-Telegram!!

Good for Vince Young

for picking up a tough road win. Don’t know why SF decided to revolve their offense around Smith instead of Gore today.

Even though they're an NFC team

I’m kind of happy for New Orleans. Their fan base is more devoted to the team than I think most realize, and that’s impressive when you consider the fact that the Saints don’t really have any “glory years”.

I still believe in Romo.

I have to wonder how much of that is a post-katrina rally

No idea.

Given Some of the Football Horrors

That have befallen them over the years, I’m happy to see them kick some butt too. They blew last minute leads in 1978 and 1983 to miss the playoffs, then lost their first four playoff games, three of them at home. Payton has done wonders for the franchise, and given what the city has gone through after Katrina, I wish them the best, unless they play us.

by kindablue on Nov 8, 2009 6:55 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Mistake

I said 1978, I meant the 1979 season. They blew a huge lead to the Raiders on Monday night that cost them the playoffs.

by kindablue on Nov 8, 2009 7:00 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I think it has a lot to do with post-Katrina

They had never sold out a full season until the year of their return. Since then, there has been so many more casual fans than before. Most of the people in New Orleans watch the Saints every Sunday now. All it took was that playoff year for everybody to get into it. It will be interesting to see whether its just the hardcore fans watching again if they have a few bad seasons in a row. But yea, its what everybody talks about down here now, and it very exciting for the city. It needs whatever revenue the Saints can bring.

can't hardly stand the waiting....damn eagles will be bringing the blitz no doubt....i want to see

if JG and the offense have laid out some plays / quick slants to burn them when they do

by Loozeeana_Cowboy on Nov 8, 2009 6:48 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

They'd better have a plan. Just play smart football. The way I always figured you beat the blitz

was by throwing quick slants but I haven’t seen Tony throw those very well.

I hope so Looz

And I hope we’re not wantin to kill JG in short order. He needs to take up residence rent free in Andy Reid’s head and get the job done. I don’t want my momma questioning his smarts, which has happened, and that’s not a good thing.

given the speed all around

I think they’re going to choose sides and not follow the WRs around

We’re a bunch of drunk, rowdy Eagle haters… this game needs to start NOW!!

Superbowl, or BUST.

After his success as a rookie head coach everyone was ready to strewn rose petals in his path. Now people are wondering if his era brings to close the Dominat Raven’s D

Great pun

Although I don’t hold that stuff against him as much as some do. The punishment was overkill just like what Plaxico Burress is doing time way beyond the offense. Just think, you might be spending time in jail soon for not buying health insurance.
