Week 8 Discussion (Other Teams)

Might put this one on hold pending this drive

Yep

[52520Andrew]

Going to OT

[RaineV1]

Damn. This has been a hell of a comeback by the Colts.

[52520Andrew]

Vinatieri is something special

[52520Andrew]

Damn that drop

[Inqui]

Ginn had the winner there. Joe and Cam ought to start a club.

[RaineV1]

If the Panthers had Benjamin they would have won this game. Still, this shouldn't have even gone into overtime.

The We Want Clutch Receivers club. They'll get along well with receivers in the Get Us A Real Quarterback club.

Panthers responded though, good on them

[-Truth-]

I laughed out loud when Ted Ginn Jr. dropped the game-winner. That's about as dastardly of a drop as I've seen in recent memory.

Was a perfect throw by Cam of all people too

[52520Andrew]

Onto sudden death

[52520Andrew]

And there it is

[LosT_in_TranSlatioN]

Thank god. Kick the damn field goal

[LosT_in_TranSlatioN]

I win money! Yay

[52520Andrew]

Nice win by Carolina, them and Green Bay next week should be a fun one. Can never count Luck out of it though, can be inconsistent and turns it over more than you like but he has his moments as well. Great defensive play at the end by Harper as well. Fun game

[RaineV1]

I thought for sure the Colts were going to win since they had the momentum. So now a 3-5 team is on top of the AFC South. That division is so awful.

Yeah Colts will be fine with that division the way it is, what a mess

And their record in non-divisional games since the Cold War is still woeful. We get stuck into the Patriots for beating up on a weak division (and overall they do), but going 8-0 in your division and jagging two or three more wins isn't the same as going 10-6 or 12-4 in the AFCN.

Colts are trash. How many breaks do you want, and you still blow it? Kind of reminded me of our first six weeks of the season how they came back to make it a game somehow after playing dreadful throughout. If it was us, though, Kuechly would have certainly caught that INT at the end of the fourth quarter to seal the game. The refs and the Panthers gave Luck and his boys every opportunity to steal this one, and they failed miserably. They will still get a home playoff game, and I'd be willing to bet we finish with at least the same record as them, if not better.

I'm so hoping for the Jags to win that division. That would be glorious.

Actually, since there's only 3 other teams in that division they can only go 6-0 from winning it. But yeah, it's certainly easier than playing in the AFCN. I really wouldn't be that shocked to see the Colts finish 6-10 and still end up as the division winner.

[RaineV1]

The Jags were actually my pick to win that division this year. If they can get even a little momentum this season they could do it. Also if the Texans had a QB they'd probably be winning that division easily.

That's just how completely they dominate their sad division.

I actually feel like Newton has been more consistent with his accuracy over these past two seasons. It hurts because I'm starting him in a money league with only the prime-time games and he fumbled at the one yard line and Ginn Jr. dropped the TD.

[Pats]

The afc south is a gross division, I hate divisions in general in sports. Every year theres always someone with an inferior record getting into the playoffs with homefield.

Talk about some late night news, early morning news for East Coasters to steal headlines from the MNF game. 

 

The 49ers have benched Colin Kaepernick in favor of.......... The Great Blaine Gabbert! Timing is a bit odd as PFT explains that this could mean the 49ers have found a trade partner willing to take Kaepernick from them. Possibly the Jets? I mean Todd Bowels wouldn't be that stupid to ruin his team by doing that would he? Maybe Houston thinks Kaepernick is enough to win their crappy division?

Haven't really had the time to watch him much this year at least so I'll take your word for it. That was a perfect throw last night

[beanfigger]

Eagles fans [after winning countless division titles and playoff games every year]: "I can't wait to get rid of McNabb."

 

"Kolb is so good. Remember how great he looked in that game as an injury replacement?"

 

"Vick is the best! Remember how awesome he played that half season as an injury replacement?"

 

"Foles is definitely the guy. Did you see all the touchdowns he threw that half season as an injury replacement?"

 

"Finally, Bradford is the answer we've been waiting for. 10-10 in a preseason game!"

 

[2016] "Kaepernick is gonna be gre-- Forget it. We miss you Donavan!"
