I caught saints vs cowboys on Sunday, which like you said, it was lopsided. Just seen the worst MNF game ever IMO.

rsot · #**181** 11-12-2013

Very lopsided.

On the plus side...Bucs won but I lost my bet on the Dolphins UGH...Dolphins were looking like they could do it in the 3rd...

I was laughing ...21 yard punt by the Bucs kicker...what is this?!?

NFL is starting to look like a joke to me.

So many issues, poorly coached teams, under performing teams, whining players etc.

Do not remember so many crazy things going on in the NFL as this year.

rsot · #**183** 11-13-2013

Agree - the quality doesnt have the same thrill as past years.

The Kansas City streak is still refreshing given their last year finish.

The lions are first in their division !! Does that count as refreshing ?

rsot · #**185** 11-14-2013

Ha yes the Lions - nice point out nyc!

The changes the NFL has made to rules on hitting other players, and the change to allow only 1 contact practice per week (I believe) is actually the reason for so many injuries this year.

They're trying so hard to make this a "safer" game by tweaking certain rules and trying to change the physicality, yet they are only causing more & more injuries.

So happy for Alex Smith. Finally somewhere that he is appreciated. He took nothing but **** here in Nor Cal. Never said a word. Just put on his SF Giants hat and proceeded with the post game conference. Everyone got on the Kapernick bandwagon. I was saying hold up he is Grbac 2.0. Hasn't looked very good this year, I guess time will tell. Andy Reid as well. Going through all that nonsense in Phily and losing his son and everything else. I am a firm believer of good things happen to good people, great things happen to great people. Chiefs aren't the best team in the NFL I admit that. But I think they have those intangibles.

The Sunday night game should be awesome. Going to be a good test for KC and going to be interesting for Denver as well. Because the way the records are you could have like a 13 win team in the AFC West not winning the Division and having to go on the road as a Wild Card team. Crazy!!!

rsot · #**188** 11-15-2013

You're right about the wild card status - hah crazy indeed!

Sandy D · #**189** 11-16-2013

This has been the oddest NFL season I think I can ever remember.

So many weird things, teams playing under their talent, over their talent, players in trouble etc.

Kansas went down to Broncos last night - end of that win streak

If Peyton stays healthy it will be hard to beat them down the stretch.

So far not many can stop the genius Peyton, he is just too smart and reads everything they toss at him.

I think if anything their Defense might be the problem with a few injuries and older d backs.

nyc · #**193** 11-18-2013

Peyton had the ball out to his receivers within 2 seconds last night. That's craaaaazy fast.

I grew up watching some of the best in Montana, Marino etc but I really think Peyton will pass them all if he stays healthy a few more years as the best ever.

Brady is also right up there but Peyton is the smartest QB since Marino for sure and now has so many weapons to go to. In Indy he has Wayne and Harrison and usually not a very good running back other then Addai and before that the back who went to Arizona but never had all this talent he has now.

nyc · #**195** 11-18-2013

Wow what a great MNF game. Did y'all catch cam say BOA at the end instead of Bank of America stadium. Ayyyyyeeee. Cam low key stealth.

Peyton is definitely on of the great QB of all time. He needs to win another SB before he gets into the Montana, Elway, Brady class. Probably the best regular season QB without a doubt. But so much of players legacy now, especially for the Quarterback position is tied to Superbowl wins. I know he got one and lost the other one. Don't know if it is right or wrong but it seems like when you talk about the greatest of all time even throwing in Staubach, Unitas, or Otto Graham. Winning SB or Championships before SB era they guys at the top of the list seem to always have multiple SB wins.

I dont consider Elway in the Montana, Marino etc class.

Marino did not have enough good players ever around him to win much but surely the best pure passer I ever saw before Peyton came along.

Dan Fouts is mentioned a lot but when you throw the pass 60 times every game you are surely going to have some numbers.
