"Vince Young beats Matt Lienart on the final play.....again."
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
How does Nate Washington drop that pass on 3rd? I would get all my hopes up for what happens here on 4th and goal on my stream, but Joe Buck just ruined it for me on my television..

Unbelievable... it wasnt quite like the Rose bowl against USC but Vince Young hits Kenny Britt for a touchdown on 4th and goal... 99 yard drive, three 4th down conversions.... Young has thrown for over 380 yards....Titans up 20-17 with 2 seconds left
11/29/09 | MrNFL | 175 respect
As much as I mock Vince Young, he actually looked like a real quarterback on that drive. Then again, his idiocy at the end of the half made them need a TD instead of a FG, but that was a very good drive.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Chris Johnson must be about the smartest man in the NFL..

The legend of Vince Young is about to grow... Titans on a 14 play, 90 yard drive have the ball inside the Cardinal 10 with 20 seconds left, down by 4
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Someone should tell Joe and Troy to turn down their tv's while on air, or the NFL is trying subliminal messages, I just heard "Priceline NEGOTIATOR!" in the background during that last punt..

Niner played the entire game today, and because of that they are going to win and keep their hopes of a playoff run alive!!

The Chargers version of the Wildcat is the "Wildfrog"??
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
85 yard TD run for Chris Johnson - my fantasy teams thank him.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Amazing what you can do when you don't turn the ball over -- TD Chiefs and only the 2nd rushing touchdown of the year (both by Jamaal Charles)

Taking the San Diego Chargers defense might be the only good pick I made this week in my quick fantasy matchups
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Amazing what turnovers can do to a team.
Points off turnovers given up first 10 games of the season: 23
Points off turnovers given up today vs. San Diego Chargers: 28
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
2nd half, same thing. Shotgun play on 3rd and 1, snap goes way over the head of Cassel. 1st and goal at the 10 for SD.
****.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Jared Allen with an INT on Cutler, then chooses to throw it forward...
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Okay, inside screen, and even though Sproles goes for 30-40 yards, they couldn't spike it for another play
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Umm, Coach? What the heck are you doing? You're down 3 TD's already, why are you calling a timeout with 21 seconds left when they want to go into halftime? Don't pull a Rick Neuhiesel..
11/29/09 |

Vince Young with a bonehead play to end the half. Titans have the ball on the Cardinal 10, with 12 seconds and a timeout left. Young drops back to pass, gets rushed and instead of throwing the ball away to take the 3 points with a field goal, he tries to dance his way away from the pressure and gets sacked as the half ends

San Diego defense scores on a fumble return... my fantasy teams thank you
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
God f***in damn...Cassel has one slip from his hand, picked up and returned for another TD...28-7 SD.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Ugh, Gates again for a TD, 21-7. Gates is wide open on every play it seems.

I only asked you to defend it because you claimed that my comment was ridiculous. If you thought my comment was ridiculous, then clearly you must have thought there was nothing wrong with that huge, game-changing penalty. That's why I was asking you to justify it... because you were talking like someone who didn't see any problems with it.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Yea, I know...LT scored after a 53 yard pass from Rivers to Floyd.

why are all NFC East games always 15-20 minutes behind the other games being played. all the early games are done except for wash/philly. and the late games are already 5 football minutes in. and campbell blows another one. eagles win.

More Illegal Contact on Houston. The Texans are playing pass D like the Patriots of years gone by (I know you'll love that comment PAT) LOL

11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
YOU ask me to defend 1 P.I. call..... yet when the shoe is on your foot... YOU say, "I dont have to explain, Im not the ref"..... Now thats the PAT we've all come know. You feel better if the ref would have said Illegal Contact instead of P.I since that is what happened on that play?
11/29/09 | aos035 | 68 respect
Too much pressure on Shaub. He dosen't have enough time.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Holding the hand doesn't slow down Pierre enough to catch a ball that was 10 yards over his head.

No, that was just the biggest and most obvious one. And why would I have anything to explain? I'm not a referee. And I'm able to recognize when bad calls go in favor of my team. I'm a realist.

The pass was uncatchable anyway.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
pushed kick, still down 6.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
You're basing your comment on one questionable P.I. call? Good thing ALL the Pat's games arent televised nationally or youd have more to explain than anyone.

4510 respect
43 free yards on a ridiculous pass interference call... care to justify that?
11/29/09 | aos035 | 68 respect
NO pressure whatsoever. BTW, Manning started to get mad when he was getting hit earlier, but he's only been sacked twice, and on the first play he fell on the ground so he wouldn't get sacked.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
LOL... just when I think you have finally come to your senses you make some ridiculous comment like that! And that from a PATS fan, the team that has benefitted more from BS calls than any other team known to man, is absurd....
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Hey now, that happens in College (well, SEC), I'd hope to think NFL doesn't resort to that too..
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Wow, nice play Addai to just not go down.
11/29/09 |

Of course the penalties are mounting. Goodell has the refs on strict instructions to make sure the Colts win this one.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Redskins with another TD, 21-16 over Eagles.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Penalties are really starting to mount for the Texans. And I feel ole MO starting to swing toward the COLTS....
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Oh I know. NP. I was just pointing out that it has been a frustrating season for Manning. Even tho they are undefeated. The Colt offense is one of the most sophisticated and hardest to learn and the rookie receivers just arent on the same page with Manning time and again. I guarantee you that Manning would give half his salary to see Marvin Harrison come out of retirement for the playoffs. One other thing that is contributing to the INT's is the fact that the loss of OT Tony Ugoh is resulting in Manning having more pressure in his face than he;s accustomed to. Add all those things up and thats why Peyton is my choice for MVP to this point.

Brady Quinn runs it in for 9 yard TD, guess he figured that was the only way he could get the ball in for 6.

I agree but they are unnecessary they need to get there heads back in the game.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
The second PI call in the endzone was obvious, but in no way should that first PI been called, uncatchable and hardly enough contact.

Texas is killing themselves with stupid, stupid penalties. 20-14 Texas still up but Indy is closing the gap.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Oh, I wasn't discrediting his season, but usually with all of what Peyton does, his numbers are always right there with him. Just to see 3 weeks straight of 2 INT's is kind of shocking.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Manning to Wayne...TD....and its now 20-14. Here come the COLTS.........
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Ive said it for weeks that I think despite the recent INT's that this may be Peyton's most impressive season at the helm of the Colts. The injuries to Colts TE's and WR's have forced Peyton to work with mostly rookie receivers for most of the year. Yes they still have Wayne and Clark has been there most of the year but the other 3 Colt WR/TE positions have been a revolving door of inexperience and yet Peyton has found a way to get them to 10-0. (Not to mention a rookie RB splitting time in the backfield)
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Maybe interference, but still uncatchable, was way overthrown.
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect

Shane Graham kicks a 53 yard field goal and makes it to end the half with the Bengals up 13-0 over the Brown's, figured it would have been a blow out by now.
11/29/09 | aos035 | 68 respect
2 picks in a half... I know I'm getting picky again, but why couldn't he have thrown a pick on their touchdown drive?
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Usually teams have to do very little and still lead the Rams...
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
3 straight weeks of 2 INT's for Peyton? Is that like the worst stretch of his career since his rookie season?
11/29/09 |

Rams go for it on 4 and 4 from the Seahawks 36 and Boller throws a pick 6. Seahawks have done very little and still have a 14-7 lead
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Manning picked AGAIN......geeezzzzz
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Texans AGAIN settle for a FG. Thats usually not a good thing against the Colts.... 1:00 for Manning to get some points back AND the Colts get the ball to start the second half. This is a HUGE defensive series for Houston right here.

And that is why Andre Johnson is in nearly every one of my Quick Fantasy games.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Agreed, b ut it was contact to the helmet. It wasnt like one of those phantom PF calls like were called on the Ravens earlier this year against Brady.

Matt Ryan has left the Falcons game with a toe injury. Chris Redman hits Jerious Norwood for a touchdown but the Bucs respond with Josh Freeman connecting with Antonio Bryant for a 42 yard touchdown pass. Falcons lead 10-7
11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
"Blows" to the head, I'd prefer calls like that just be kept in the back pocket, and I dislike them enough to disdain it. It was still just a tap on Peyton's helmet as he's trying to deflect the ball.
11/29/09 | MrNFL | 175 respect
Unfortunately, QB's will be untouchable 10 years from now.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
That call was OBVIOUS and the rules are clear (like them or not) about blows to the head of a QB. Not sure how you can argue with the penalty.

11/29/09 | Chief_aka_James | 3286 respect
Smith must really be wondering what the hell he can do to try and tackle Manning without something being called, I agree with the first, but that roughing the passer is nothing but BS.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Second Personal Foul by Antonio Smith. The Texans better keep their poise. The Colts LOVE to trail by 17. Thats right in their wheelhouse!
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect

Almost 21-0 at the very beginning at the 2nd quarter. Well, I guess 17-0 will have to do.Grrrrrrr........

35 yard throw and catch from McNabb to Desean, wide wide wide open. 10-7 Eagles.
11/29/09 | zzj000 | 388 respect
Colts look flat..... Got a bad feeling about this! But somehow the Texans ALWAYS find a way to blow leads at home in the 4th Qtr against the Colts. Could today be just another chapter in the book known as Houston Texan Frustrating Loses?
