The playoffs are going to suck without Seattle
Think of all the moments over the years. We want the ball and we’re going to score or Laces Out Romo and then of course Hold My Dick last year.

Houston and Cincy both scare me.
Nawlins will win fairly easily . I think Whomever wins the Texans-Bengals game will make it to the AFC Championship game.
Are you kidding me? I think they're the weakest teams in the playoffs.
Cinncinnati couldn’t beat Baltimore in Week 16 and only made it in because two other teams lost.

I didnt like the Bengals in the playoffs.
but i dont think the texans are one of the weakest teams. Not to sound bias but i believe the niners to be one of the weaker teams, they kick fieldgoals and cant score in the redzone.
I think it would be cool if instead of saying "Beast mode" you could say "you've been Lynched"
The 49ers have the #1 ranked defense, what do the Texans excel at?
by StealthHawk on Jan 7, 2012 6:02 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
they niners give up more yards a game
and the texans have a better offense then the niners. Texans have a better team then the niners.
I think it would be cool if instead of saying "Beast mode" you could say "you've been Lynched"
I dont think so and I hate the Niners. Texans are also starting their 3rd string rookie QB in the playoffs.
by StealthHawk on Jan 7, 2012 7:26 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
The Texans have
better recievers and RB’s and niners D isnt the top, maybe in take aways, but the steelers have the 1st ranked D. Texans are the better team, but i will agree to disagree here, i respect a good argument. i just think the texans will get farther then the niners.

I have never really been able to stomach the Bengals. I think that stems all the way back to the 80s when I hated them then as well.

Dalton's long ball is like Flynn's
Only Dalton’s is faster.

See, I don't like Dalton, primarily because of his arm
Yet it is better than Flynn’s.

by Thomas Beekers on Jan 7, 2012 1:56 PM PST up reply actions
I know you don't love Flynn
And based on what we’ll need to pay in contract I don’t love him either. But there are two things I do like:
1. Having a QB that can actually anticipate our WRs being open, or knowing that single coverage on BMW is his version of open.
2. Being able to focus that 1st rounder on a different position, and potentially moving down in the draft to acquire more picks.
Yes
Formerly knows as Vasilii, follow me on twitter @dolgorukii
by Thomas Beekers on Jan 7, 2012 1:59 PM PST up reply actions
As a side note, even if we do go QB in round 1
I still think we should work to trade down, if not multiple times. If we think Tannehill (or whoever) is our answer we’ll be able to get him all the way down to the 34th overall pick in the draft.
It's trade up or trade down, for a QB
I don’t see what QB we could pick at 11 right now
Formerly knows as Vasilii, follow me on twitter @dolgorukii

This. And if Tannehill is gonna enjoy a Ponder-like reach in the low teens, it better not be by us.
Work hard, play harder, rest easy.
I'm sure you're ahead of me on this
but Aaron Aloysius had a nice cut up of Flynn’s game against Detroit. This is kind of continued from the other thread, but I really don’t mind his deep ball in this game. And the weather isn’t doing him any favors.
I'm scouting Detroit, yes

Man does Arian Foster take a year to get up to speed
He really is missing that short area burst that makes other “elite” RBs a notch ahead of him. At some point in time he’s going to lose a little of that speed and become essentially useless.
Foster is a nice story, but that kind of stuff is usually the case for UDFA RBs
Their limitations mean they have a smaller window.

Beating the Giants would be an upset?
I haven’t looked at the line but I was expecting Atlanta to win…
I wouldn't be surprised at all.
Neither team is that great, and would probably only be an upset because it is in NY.
Aaaaand that's why Cedric Benson is still starting for the Bengals
Bernard Scott will never be their lead back. I think Michael Bush could do well there however.
Anyone else pulling for the Lions tonight?
I’m pulling for them just because of Jason Hanson. 20 years, over 300 games with the same team and not a single playoff victory?
Lions shit the bed losing to GB's B team
I’d have picked them to kill the Giants but they have no realistic chance to win tonight.

I hope so.
Its a solid show and when I did my undergrad I had a study group with a similar bond. As I’ve mentioned, Alison Brie is super hot which makes it that much better.

Somehow, wildcard weekend never interests me
There’s this big void W17 and wildcard where I just kind of get really football weary.
Still, it’s playoffs, something exciting will happen. One unexpected game will be interesting.

I can't believe the NFL scheduled the worst playoff game at the best timeslot.
Lions-Saints is BY FAR the best game on the slate, and should be on tomorrow night.

Seattle earned their playoff spot, Denver backed into it because other teams are worse than them.

Is Skyrim a good game?
My wife and I received an Xbox 360 for Christmas and we’re looking for some games. Admittedly, we’re more of the Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros types and new games just look too “difficult” to play. But we are trying to find something fun and looking for suggestions.
Stay away.
Stay very away.
It’s the most addictive thing I’ve ever played, even worse than Civilization.
And the Civ series (outside of 5) is my favorite game of all time
Right after that is the Diablo series.
I rather like 5.
I’m not sure I get all the hate. Everyone seems to love 4, which I never got to.
To me
Five seemed like a dumbed down version of four. In all fairness, I got the game super early and didn’t go back to it after just a couple of weeks. They may have “fixed” it so it didn’t seem so boring, but the game moved too slow compared to the predecessor.
Yeah, I've heard that.
Maybe I’ll try 4 sometime, but I do really, really love the interface in 5 (for most things).
I sold my PC, anyhow, so it won’t be for a while. :(

It’s pretty user-friendly as RPGs go, it doesn’t throw too many numbers or complex systems at you. Just a wide-open world to run around in, that’s the appeal.

As far as the game goes, it passes time (quickly) and you are generally entertained. So it does what a video game is supposed to do. Single player sucks, to me it’s like drinking alone. I would rather have the multiplayer games, because well, I just do. I understand the reason it’s not multiplayer, because there’s a lot going on. I would pass on it, especially given what you are accustomed to playing.

If Shaub stays healthy next year, and they can get a decent WR next to Johnson....the Texans could be a #1 seed.

I'm still a skeptic of Carroll as coach
Particularly given the fact that his first coaching stints all ended in the 10-6 to 8-8 area.
His last year with the patriots they started 6-2 and finished 8-8 and he was fired. His old teams all had a pretty bad habit of getting off to good starts and fading.
This next season should really determine if he’s learned anything.
Read my tweets or whatever - @SSReporters
He's got a heck of an eye for talent though.
If he ends up ever being fired, I’d be fine with keeping him on in some front office role. Though I doubt he would accept it.
Getting two 7-9 seasons out of a blown-up roster is pretty spiffy coaching in my book.
The real question is the players we’re bringing in, and if they’ll mature properly….other than QB, I don’t know what you’d complain about. Okung, ET, Kam, Baldwin, Rice, Miller, Clemons, Wright, Browner and Sherman (and turning Red into a DE)….that’s a pretty good 2-year haul.

NBC is so out of ideas that that they have to make a TV Series from a book
that’s not the kind of book that should be.
The biggest problem with NBC is that they can't get people to watch their "established" shows.
The Office probably would have been cancelled on any other network…..it’s not like ABC and CBS and FOX has better programming, or anything. NBC needs to learn how to better advertise their shows. Whatever they’re doing now isn’t working.
In my opinion TV is in a sad state.

Bud Light is defined by its caloric content compared to “regular” beer, isn’t it.
Also, I’m starting to be confused. 5% is normal ABV for beers here, has been for ages. I’m not sure how exactly you define “light”, since normally “light” would indicate lighter beers, as in blond beers, at 4%

And the grapes probably have older history than France

It goes the other way, as well: few American craft breweries can make a European-style “European-style koelsch” without using too much malt or hops that are too floral.

Seattle has no pass rush
An inexperienced secondary, and has no answer to speedy shifty RBs like Sproles.
Lynch would be our only source of offense.
Read my tweets or whatever - @SSReporters
Seattle has a pass rush
Its just one guy. Instead of 4-5. Its kinda by design, most teams like a 270 poundish end, like we had in Patrick Kearney or Darryl Tapp. Not a 325 pound run stopper like Big Red. Without the interior pass rush Clemons is the only answer unless you bring the blitz, which is why Thomas and Chancellor are down in the box so much.
It'd be interesting for sure.
NO looks good, but Detroit’s rushing D is also terrible. NO’s D is pretty bad too.

Ya scratch that
Hes been with the saints all five years, but he did just sign a 4 year deal worth about 2.5 mil a season. Would certainly be a cheap backup to Marshawn Lynch. I dont think having two power backs is all bad if you cant stop either one of em.
