The 2010 NFL Thread

[DMN in the House]

I don't have a problem with Moss. I don't have enough energy to actually 'hate' any athlete. It's just a game, and I don't live and die by it like some do. Maybe that comes from playing it, maybe it's just my general malaise about most things. He takes plays off. Always has, always will. If you're willing to put up with that, he was a great player, is still a very good player (at times), and is a future Hall of Famer. He's no Jerry Rice.

I don't see any reason to 'hate' TO. He works hard, he plays hard, and he's always been a little different. When he's on the field, he performs. You can't ask for anything more. I'll take TO every day over Marvin Harrison, who was quiet, a hard worker, and all that, then goes and shoots people. You don't have that trouble with TO, all you get is blown up media bullshit.

Is there something in the Mile High air that makes coaches insane? I know Shanahan is in DC now, but he's working out Jamarcus Russell after saying McNabb isn't in shape. Are you serious? Then there's Josh McDaniel jettisoning his two best players last year and going a robust 4-14 since a 6-0 start.

[GhostMachine]

An article on Yahoo sports is saying that Washington might be interested in Moss.

If it happens and they sign him, I'm going to eat my Deadskins fan father alive the next time he starts his anti-Cowboys shit.

[gunnar hendershow]

JaMarcus throwing to Randy Moss in Washington would create about 1 million new Ravens fans instantly. I hope this doesn't happen, it'll make it harder to get tickets.

The Bengals messed up by not keeping Antonio Bryant. He was the only WR worth having at this point, no TO, no Ochocinco and no Moss. Bryant was more than enough, great player and a medium/low profile.

Considering TO is in the top 10 in catches, yards, and TDs, I think not

[Damian WayLNKe]

Merriman to the Bills. Moss to the Titans. The Titans already average 28 points per game and only give up 18.75. I would be very afraid if Moss becomes a productive member of the team. They have 5 division games ahead of them and their bye week currently.

[Meacon Keaton]

Hey, Randy Moss gets a bye week after all. Merriman to the Bills is 'lol' worthy for me. You were only dominating because of steroids, ya Charger jerk!

[munky]

Merriman to the Bills? Must have missed that one.

Oh well, he's bound to be better than pretty much every pass rusher on the roster, steroids or not.

[gunnar hendershow]

Merriman will get hurt, since that's all he's done the last 3 years. Still, they're probably getting him for cheap and they'd like to win a game so why not?

Moss on the Titans? Well, let's just say I don't think this will improve their offense as much as give them more offensive options. Sucks to be a fantasy guy who just picked up Nate Washington though.

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Not necessarily, Nate Washington could very well be a good slot receiver with the Britt/Moss duo.

[Trey]

Nate's stock only goes up hearing this, not down.

[HailtotheYo]

Britt is out 6-8 weeks.

[Universal]

Moss will open it up for Chris Johnson considerably. Once Britt comes back, that is a Superbowl team right there.

[Powerhart]

So Britt's out for basically the rest of the regular season? This bites. Hopefully Moss/Johnson/Young can lead us to the playoffs where Britt might be able to come back.

[Cactus Drags]

How in the fuck do they get off fining Harrison for the hit on Brees? I am far from his biggest apologist, but I have no idea how they can call that a late hit when Bress had the fucking ball in his hand the whole time!

[Powerhart]

I thought they fined him because of a the helmet-to-helmet contact.

[Cactus Drags]

I've read conflicting reports. Some say late, some say helmet contact. I see none of that in this hit:

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81bdb571/article/steelers-harrison-fined-20k-for-hit-on-saints-qb-brees?module=HP_headlines

The league told Harrison he put his facemask into Brees' back after the quarterback delivered a pass, causing Harrison to draw a roughing the

passer penalty.

Bullshit. What concerns me more is that they saw fit to fine the dude, yet the official on the field, who had a clear, uninterrupted view, didn't think to throw a flag.

[Lowerdeck]

This is just getting ridiculous. Yeah, I understand trying to prevent some of the more vicious hits, but fining everything remotely questionable? Might as well have two flags on a belt strapped around the guy's waist. Actually wait, didn't someone tear an ACL doing that? Two hand touch?

[Cadj]

Jets offense are making up for last weeks debacle by having 4 possessions and going 3 and out 3 times.

Disgustingly predictable playcalling from Schottenheimer, be amazed if they managed to even score .

EDIT:

Get in the red zone and fumble the snap on 3rd down.

Hopeless. Atleast they got 3 points. Finally some points.

Sanchize is as much to blame as anyone else. If he doesn't think he can hit Braylon Edwards on a deep pass he instantly checks down. His first 6 completions were for 61 yards, but the 74 yard bomb makes it look like he had a great half. In most of his games he's either throwing dump downs or long bombs and nothing in between.
