MNF Open Thread

PrintIt's the last Monday night game of the season. And, it could actually end up mattering to the Cowboys. The first step in the Cowboys admittedly slim chances of grabbing the #2 seed and a bye is the Vikings losing to the Bears tonight. Okay, I did say slim chances. But what the heck, it's at least something to root for in the game.
This is an open thread for game chat.

the Bears are not the FIRST team to do this
but what a dropoff from being in the SB just a few years ago!
What a fluke year that was for Grossman.
Pessimists say the cup is half-empty, while optimists say it's half-full. Well, isn't it both? Realist Larry, 2009
Remember Kyle Orton
took them to the playoffs. Putting Grossman back in there was a joke. Orton got the shaft!
Wrong year.
I think you’re thinking of a different year man.
The year they went to the superbowl rex started all year.

I stand corrected
Grossman did start every game that year. It was the year before that Orton started most of the games.
Secondly,
For the JJ/GM haters, he’s not perfect, but when you see some teams, and moves like getting Cutler, he’s probably at least in the middle of the pack as a GM.
Could be worse.
Although I thought Cutler would improve the Bears!

if we were where the bears were i would have been all over that trade...
I still think with some WR help he’ll do real well.

Well I have to write something good about Berman,
On the “c’mon man” segment berman picked the giants howler of a game against the panthers to close out their stadium; in particular the scramble that eli made when he is 5 yards past the line of scrimmage before he realizes that he cannot pass the ball. Sheli scrambles and promptly gets strip tackled. ROFL!!!! that is an epic fail.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
Vikings have touched the ball twice already
looks like Cutler could be their future at QB
/shakes head in disapointment
So I had to establish the rules and regulations of the game...85!

I'm 21 points down in my league championship
I have Jarred Allen, Chad Greenway, and of course Charles Tillman. Allen is playing like crap so far and Tillman just got hurt. There goes the Championship LOL.
Lame.
Damn, that’s a ton of defensive players you guys play wiht.

we start 9 IDP
3 LB, 3 DL, and 3 DBs. It’s kinda cool really. I won the regular season, but then the Colts had to go and rest Wayne and Dallas Clark. Should have replace Wayne, but my back up was Mr. Frying Pan hands himself.
IDPs are pretty fun.
I’ve had that Hawthorne kid from Seattle since Dallas played them and have Winfield going tonight.
Championship!

10 team league
We started it 2 years ago as a trial. We also have another league with no IPD. It changes things up a little.Good Fun though.
People are putting too much blame on Favre
AP has sucked the last few games. That’s why MN struggles on offense.
Who was it on the pregame show
who said Cutler = Jeff George?
A very interesting observation.
I think it's funny...
Mel Kiper says that Cutler is a disservice to George.
I’m biased though, for some reason I’ve never been in love with him even when he was drafted.
The fact that he comes off as a primadonna just adds to my ickyness.

great to know what's coming
you would think the bears are in the playoffs according to my headphones
You know what?
While Dallas didn’t have a perfect season, if Minnesota loses to Chicago, I can honestly say Dallas didn’t ever lose to a horrific team this year.
Philly loss to Oakland
GB loss to Tampa Bay
NO loss to Tampa Bay
Arizona loss to Carolina Pre-Matt Moore

Oh the what if's
We could have been in the playoffs last year if he’d been there instead of Brooks Bollinger.
They didn't need matt moore, they had Brad Johnson (I still shudder at the thought).
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
it is not really the what if game
we saw his potential in training camp and pre season and we still cut him. It was a dumb move.
He was awesome in the preseason too.

thanks it was a lot of hard work ;)

Nice work, man.
It’s a pretty competitive league, considering it’s composed of a buncha football nuts.

wow, I can't believe that getting the #2 seed and a 1st rd bye
is looking more possible with each passing second of this game, unbelievable.

Why does it seem every year
That teams that have nothing to play for who play teams with something on the line, playoff-wise, often beat those teams with something on the line? Remember the Cowboys vs Detroit 3 years ago? We’ve had the Saints this year, the Vikings, the Giants…What about the Raiders vs. the Bucs last year @ Tampa? I wonder what is going to the mindset of the teams. Do the teams with something on the line play “tight”?

Yup
It’s easier to play when the results mean nothing. These teams are still failures…failures at even sucking consistently. I mean, now you’re toying with your fanbase that had its heart set on a high draft pick.

Someone help me out
why did some cowboys fans want to trade romo for cutler again?
(Doing best Montecito Tex impression.)
He has Vanderbilt pedigree that the genius Jason Garrett could mold, unlike that backwards hat wearing, pair shaped, divorcee chasing best QB to not win a playoff game.
by The Immortal Iron Fist AKA AFB on Dec 28, 2009 10:04 PM CST up reply actions
Nice
Montecito doesn’t show up unless the Cowboys are doing bad, is he really a fan… of something other than himself?
simple
at times Romo has seemed like he’s on the brink yet he self destructs = Cutler
Romo’s pre-November 2009 incarnation was of a reckless gunslinger whose strengths necessarily come along with his weaknesses = Cutler
So in those regards, they’re the same.
Romo has niftier feet and a knack to put some touch on the ball while moving. Cutler doesn’t have that.
Cutler has significantly better pocket QB skills than Romo, but is prone to bone headedness.
Cutler has a way, WAY stronger arm than Romo.
Cutler is younger than Romo.
If Romo continued to fail and struggle as he was from November of last year through September of this year, why not dump him for someone younger with equal or greater promise ? And, if you disagree with that because you’re a Romo fan, you can certainly understand the thesis behind it.
The people who suggested it are probably more pragmatic in their fandom, and less breathless in their adoration of “idols.”
Personally, I think Cutler’s career arc will mirror Jake Plummer’s.
or jeff george
Dude aint the same as romo, and thats not some hero worship stuff.
“cutler has significantly better pocket skills than romo..”
how so?
Also, people who suggested it were more pragmatic in their fandom? I dont think so. I tend to agree with rafael’s analysis of those of the trade romo for cutler ilk: “dont chase shiny things” was the way he put it, which was exactly what they were doing.
the more pragmatic ones were probably the ones calling to NOT make such a trade while the breathless fans were ready to ditch romo for a guy who frankly hasnt shown he is much of a “leader” (which was the biggest knock on romo in the off season).
Well, I guess cutler bought himself some time tonight, (wonder if he said anything to a.peterson on the way off the field).
anything like..
“hey adrian, thanks for coughing it up.”

I know, but there's still one more week.
The odds are pretty highly against us getting the 2 seed, but it can be done. The Vikes lost to the Bears tonight. If the Giants can get their act together, they should be able to beat them. We’ve already beat the Eagles once, and that game will be at home. And I’m pretty sure Green Bay can beat Arizona too.
Jimmy Johnson for GM.
AZ may be better at home, though.

So if Dallas beats PHI
And GB beatsAZ
and Midgets beat MIN
then Dallas is #2

Except for the Giants vs. Minny
but anything can happen.
Giants will either go all out, or fold up and collapse-uhm, like Dallas did last year!
Pessimists say the cup is half-empty, while optimists say it's half-full. Well, isn't it both? Realist Larry, 2009

they'll go all out
their season has been an absolute mess, and they’re coming off one of the more embarassing performances in franchise history. Add in that minnesota beat THEM week 17 last year and I think the Giants will go all out.
And then we get Colombo back...healthy, sort of!
I saw a dog today. Have you seen a dog? You probably have. How was school? Was it fun? Did you get a lot of homework? Huh? Do you have any friends? Do you have a best friend? Does he have a big coat, too?

Well they have a chance
Looks like the NY @ MIN game is at noon, so we’ll know that piece of the puzzle around game time.

if they lose
theres gonna be some serious scoreboard watching in addition to an nfc east championship game
For all the ups and downs this year, it is awesome to think we have a shot at the two seed going into week seventeen.
If I had a nickel for every Super Bowl the Eagles have won, I would have zero nickels.

there are win / loss
combinations of these three games that have us seeded anywhere from 2 to 6:
Philly @ Us
NY Giants @ Minnesota
Green Bay @ Arizona
take a look here:
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/playoffscenario?algorithm=yahooranker
seeds are like this:
1) Saints – division winner with best over all record – bye and home field throughout
2) To Be Determined – division winner second best record – get bye, home playoff game
3) To Be Determined – division winner – home playoff game during wild card weekend
4) To Be Determined – division winner – home playoff game during wild card weekend
5) To Be Determined
6) To Be Determined
Wild Card round:
3 would play 6
4 would play 5
Division Round:
1 would play the LOWEST seed left
2 would play the HIGHEST seed left
NFC Championship
winnders of the games above play, winner represents the NFC in the Bowl
