    Tim Tebow 2/10 for 30 yards.

    My O-line and recievers are killing me. The Lord Jesus Christ himself didn't suffer as much as I do looking at what's in front of me.

    $10 on this being Syferus, and another $10 on Poldebruin. Any takers/counter-bets?

    I thought it might have been you :D

    It's probably.. Eagle Eye.

    Looks like a TD for megatron for me, but probably not inconclusive

    Have to say the Niners playing well against the Browns, they went for it on fourth down earlier in the second but are up by ten and on first and goal. This is the first time I've watched them this year and Alex Smith looks fantastic, very smart play and he's making plays with his feet as well as his arm. He looks a lot more like the Smith we saw in college

    That was a 12 point fantasy swing for me, possible Johnson TD, no, and then my opponent gets the score.

    Defo didn't get in if you look where his knee went down he hadn't extended his arm to the endzone at that point. Im raging as I have him in 2 leagues that I need him to score :D

    How about Dalton and AJ Green? Striking up a real chemistry there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Dammit, I knew this would happen. This isn't a fair reflection of image.php?u=10393&type=sigpic&dateline=1318835558, I think he might have accidentally turned the gatorade cooler into wine and is playing slightly inebriated, affecting his decision making. Poor guy just can't catch a break :(

    It's something else, but im still saying he has had the easiest schedule known to man.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,067 ✭✭✭tallaghtoutlaws


    There is that long wind up getting Tebow into trouble. Face it he is fooking sh1te. Heart or no heart. I said it last week when he plays against better teams he will be shown up for what he really is.

    Good way to get good chemistry with your Receivers though.

    He's better than Orton and Brady Quinn.

    How in hell does Sanders get free just past whats needed for a first down?:mad:

    "Okay so AJ your going to run straight down the field, Dalton once you throw it to the right end zone he ll catch it"

    We literally have the worst pass defence I've seen since I started watching football. It's absolutely atrocious and embarrassing. Doesn't matter what superstars we have on offence when a terrible defence lets lesser players up the field with such ease.

    To be fair their schedule isn't that easy but yes the more reps a WR and QB get in a game time situation helps them. Don't forget he isn't the only WR the QB targets so when he checks down he knows he can depend on the guy no matter how open he is if he pulls them in.

    Just giving you a friendly reminder about that thread. Personally I'm sick and tired of you rambling on and on about it. Guess who has the most posts in that thread.

    Alex Smith looking very good

    He has a role and excels at it
    Made some rushes to the outside too

    Niners overall looking so much better then they did earlier this season

    I have seen worse in my time following the Pats but in the BB era by far the worst.

    Is it me or does Bill not seem concerned by it in recent times? Lack of fixing our pass rush and lack of fixing our secondary with quality. Its almost like he is quite happy to try and out shoot his opponent. Baffling at best.

    I think the stability that Harbaugh brought in has really helped him. Yes he still makes some dumb plays now and again but he is far more consistent then he ever was. I guess it's easy to forget that he is a good QB when given the right system.

    You rate your pass defence. That's as laughable. No need to laugh at it. Both comments are silly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,335 ✭✭✭padraig_f


    Who'd have thought the early games would be better than the late ones?

    Steelers: 341 yards, Patriots 92 yards.
