It was time for a new thread to be started for this discussion. I do the same thing for the latin threads in the main forum so this is no different and besides that, no one wants to read 22 pages of stuff about the NFL. Start your new discussions and when it breaks another few hundred replies, i\'ll start up yet another one again. Anyways, continue the discussion\\debate or whatever... umm... go niners! :)

What are you talking about? Peter Boulware is playing. -Vapor Snake
Who the hell is is Peter Boulware? I know a Michael Boulware.
-
*smacks forehead*
Peter Boulware - Linebacker for the Ravens, played for the Florida State Seminoles from 1990 to 1993, and won a National Title.
Michael Boulware - Senior for the Florida State Seminoles, the younger brother of Peter Boulware.
There ya go. Anyway, Chiefs play the Broncos in about 3 hours, and I\'m expecting the Chiefs secondary to be torched, but for the offense to put up a shitload of points :)
See Yuz.

Peter Boulware = Best Linebacker in the NFL

Lewis and Urlacher are both better. With Lewis being by far the best.
-
Panthers vs. Falcons - Vick should be back in the lineup. With or without Peete the Falcons should take this.
Jaguars vs. Ravens - Ray Lewis out Taylor is gonna take it to the D all day.
Bears vs. Lions - >>UPSET OF THE WEEK<
Broncos vs. Cheifs - Easy
Bills vs. Dolphins - Dolphin secondary is nice. Dolphin D-line is nice. Bledsoe might have one of his worst games of the season. Look for a lot of hurried passes. On another note, Chris Carter on the Dolphins!? This dude wants a ring bad. The fins might not be the best team for that though.
49ers vs. Saints - Depends on what Saints team shows up. They have a tendency to play to the level of their competition. I\'ll give em the home field advantage.
Vikings vs. Jets - They have had a bye week to prepare for the inept Vikes. A week for Pennington to get more comfortable in the starting role and a week to try to correct some problems.
Seahawks vs. Rams - Just give Marshall the damn ball. Give Faulk a nice amount of snaps and they should beat the hawks easy.
Chargers vs. Raiders - I like the Bolts this week. I think they can pull off a win in Oakland.
Texans vs Browns - Texans have a decent team to build off of for next season. Browns take this. Maybe my boy Green can pull out a 100 yarder.
Buccaneers vs. Eagles - The Bucs have a strong defense and a capable offense(when it counts). I think they should have no problem beating the Eagles.
Cowboys vs. Cardinals - *WHO CARES* This is the "Who cares" game of the week. I like Plummer and Boston against this Cowboys Defense, however Boston isn\'t at 100%. I think the Cowboys can take em.
Redskins vs Packers - *sigh*
Colts vs. Steelers - The Colts are quietly holding their own this season. They are also showing that they can win with defense as well as offense. The Steelers have barely shown that they can win.
-
Niners lost....I\'m too sad to even masturbate
-
Yeah. That game is really bothering me. I don\'t want to say anything bad about Barlow considering all he\'s done so far this season, but he really made some bad decisions.
-
Yawn.. I like your sig VS. I guess I am next.
Hope your Tight End kicks ass tomorrow night.
But then again you could go house here in the second half.
-
None of my players are doing anything. Is Brett Favre still playing? Will Ahman Green just burn in hell? Who cares. I lost. This week blows monkey balls.
-
I win again. Faulk if finally on track. Watch out, here come the Kittens!
-
49ers lost..........im so sad...........why???? why!?!?!?
now ive been forced to do something unpredictable, i have to go with the cowboys, if they win cardinals wont have a shot at first place.......
-
Looks like Cloud could finally be going down. Luke should have his ass tomorrow with Manning still left to go.
-
So I guess I\'m the only one that can\'t log in at Yahoo.
-
Looks like it. You really were hurt by byes this week.
-
SHITTERS. Cards won. I can\'t believe the Niners actually have someone nipping at their heels for the NFC West.
But luckily... WE GET THE CARDS AT HOME NEXT WEEK. Now we can put them in line, slap em\' around a bit, and send them packing with the knowledge that the NFC WEST BELONGS TO THE NINERS.
-
YAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Miami lost!!! Im happy!
-
I was checking out the PSX2central Madden League site. Very nice and really organized.
Why don\'t Jets have a record or anything?
-
God I hope Cloud loses, I really, really want him to lose at least once this season.
-
the Browns actually won! if they couldn\'t beat the Texans that would be Pathetic! Couch actually did good and the 9 sacks by the Browns Defense helped alot!
:hat:scottyJ:hat:
-
YAY! GO BILLS!
/me climbs back in hole....

Thanks
The Jets have no record because they have no manager. The team is open. I think someone just recently took them over, I\'m not sure about that though. That is more Hurricanes department.

1. StatTracker can go **** itself.
2. Chiefs...god. 37-34 in OT. I\'m still pissed off about it.

Err...Who is 49raiders? I lost track of that.

[/B]
Yea, im a broncos fan..im still ticked off about the miami game...the ball fricken went right through moblys hands. Now they gotta hope the chargers go downhill in the end of the season like last year.(which i dont think will happen). As long as the chargers get 2 losses and the broncos keep 2 losses then the broncos will be ahead since broncs beat the chargers earlier in the year.
-
Penis?
that was for Vapor, who loves ya baby!
anyways, I won this week W00T! But I only scored 60 points, my lowest total of the year, if I don\'t do a bit better than that next week, I will be fuxored, seeing as though I play cloud.....I may possibly be beat by someone who has yet to grow pubes.
-
and someone who doesnt even bother to take out his players that have a bye week and STILL BEATS ME!
-
Cloud should be banned from the league and his players distributed via online-draft. Picks are determined by present standings, last place = 1st pick, etc.
-
Har. I think that would do JUUUUST fine for me ;)
I could use some extra help at WR :)
See Yuz.

See Yuz.
I could use a consistent RB.
At first I was joking but now I\'m semi-serious. Its not fair he shows up one week and just ditches his team while the people that actually do make an effort and try to improve their team get burned.
-
Are you talking about the RB that you think I am stupid enough to trade for?
-
No way we should split up his team. First of all, not everyone plays him again, so those who do would get a free game on those who don\'t. Plus who cares if he doesn\'t check much. He has checked some, he rejected trades of mine before. He also got himself a good enough team to not have to check all the time. If he forgets about byes, so what? You complain that he is doing something wrong when you still lose, when really you are doing something wrong, since you can\'t beat someone who has fewer players in. Splitting the players up would be very unbalanced. People like luckee admit to not ever checking, and Gohan can\'t even get in, but you don\'t mention their teams. If Cloud weren\'t winning, you wouldn\'t care. It\'s all just that you can\'t handle being beaten when you are putting in effort and he doesn\'t need to. Let his team be. Besides, if we do that draft, and luckee gets Holmes, who\'s to say he doesn\'t just go on to do the same exact thing Cloud has been doing?
-
first of all, yes I feel a bit burned that he is very quiet and is winning....BUT, he has been active, check the coach list to verify that. Also, there is no way for me to disban his team, even if I wanted to.
This is just a reminder for everyone, this leaue is a keeper league, so for those of you who have no chance at the playoffs, don\'t give away your players, because you\'ll have the top picks next season.
-
It\'s a keeper league? How are we working that? I wasn\'t aware of that. Who can we keep? How many players, any restrictions?
-
No one was saying disban cloud\'s team. The dude is kicking ass. He just happens to have the top Defense and the top runnning back. You can\'t beat it. He will hurt the weeks they are off though.
-
Like when he plays the Kittens :D
-
If you guys were 1-6, you\'d see things differently.
-
anyone interested in fantasy NBA?
-
Me...not at all. Hell, I was surprised when I geared up for one Fantasy Hockey league, and Fantasy NBA...ugh. I just get bored with it :P
See Yuz.

See what things differently? I must have missed part of this conversation.
-
The only fantasy I have with NBA is if they got rid of it. Bunch of thugs.
My opinion of course.
-
here\'s how I\'m thinking of doing the keeper league, you can keep up to 8 players, however anyone you drafted in the first 3 rounds from last year, will be put back in the draft pool.
as for the fantasy NBA, I\'m in.
-
In my opinion, 8 players is too much. The other keeper league I\'m in is doing 4 players. I think that would be a better number.

Dude, that is useless. I couldn\'t care less about anyone I drafted after round 2.
-
so you\'re saying you only have 2 good players on your team?
-
Either way I\'m fukked.
-
No, I\'m saying anyone after round 2 is a wash and you can easily draft them again next year. You can have anyone of my players after McNabb and Green and I am still alright.
-
Vid doesn\'t accept any of my trades. Dick face.

You want my only receiver who scores and you are trying to trade me a RB that I don\'t need. If I need anything it\'s a WR, not a RB.
And Shock, what I am saying is that it\'s very easy to get the guys back you picked in later rounds next year because there is more maneuverability. It\'s the guys in the 1st 2 rounds that are virtually impossible to get a second time. At least not the top tear guys anyway.

Haw, well, if that\'s the case, TIME FOR SOME UPSET PICKS!
UPSET! - Cornhusker fan vs. Florida fan, SOMEBODY has to win. Cornhuskers over Team Cocky 97-96 (Gotta love the last 2 numbers in their respective national title years :) )
With the rest of that, well, I basically agree with it. BUT YOU WILL PH33R MY OMNIPITENT WRATH!

Esera Tuaolo, who played nine years in the NFL as a defensive lineman, will reveal he is gay in an interview to be shown Tuesday on HBO\'s "Real Sports" and in the upcoming issue of ESPN The Magazine.
Tuaolo
Tuaolo, who played for five NFL teams, said a major reason for his early retirement in 1999 was the difficulty and frustration that came with keeping his sexual orientation a secret.
"They didn\'t know who Esera Tuaolo is," he said in the interview with HBO. "What they saw was an actor."
Tuaolo, 34, said players routinely told gay jokes in the locker room.
"They made me go further and further into depression, further and further into shame," he said.
In a transcript and tape of the HBO show obtained by The New York Post, Tuaolo discusses the depth of his depression, saying it reached a point to where he thought about suicide.
"When I\'m driving like over a 100 (mph), maybe I could just like turn that wheel, just turn that wheel so I could just end it all," Tuaolo said in the interview.
Tuaolo, a native of Hawaii, played at Oregon State before being drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 1991 (35th pick overall). He also played for the Panthers, Vikings and Jaguars, and for the Falcons, the team he was with in Super Bowl XXXIII.
The "Real Sports" segment also features ESPN\'s Sterling Sharpe, a former teammate of Tuaolo\'s with the Packers.
When Sharpe was asked what would have happened if Tuaolo came out while he was still playing in the NFL, Sharpe said: "He would have been eaten alive and he would have been hated for it."
-
Killing yourself over people cracking gay jokes.

That\'s some real insight there, Bozco *rolls eyes*
See Yuz.
-
I just find it weak at best, oh well. And your comment helped us all too.
-
he played for a lot of teams. He got to see lots and lots of peepees.
-
Last week: 6-8
Overall: 58-44
Week 8 Predictions:
Steelers over Ravens
Bills over Lions
Bucs over Panthers
Titans over Bengals
Seahawks over Cowboys (Emmit aint gettin it)
Cheifs over Raiders
Bears over Vikings
Saints over Falcons
Browns over Jets
49er\'s over Cardinals
Jaguars over Texans
Patriots over Broncos
Redskins over Colts
MNF / GOTW Eagles over Giants
-
I don\'t feel like making all my picks and such, but...
Bengals will beat the Titans.
-
OMFG! the Browns over the Jets 24-21!!!!!!!!! that one was for Al Lerner! that was one heck of a game!
BTW Kudos to Emitt Smith (edit after I read the article on NFL.com)on the new Rushing record!
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
Jerry Rice didn\'t get the rushing record.....he has every other record, but the rushing record.
-
IC that now...it has been editied.......I hate when i do that!
MAddox went out in the 3rd! the Browns might have a chance next week vs the Steelers!
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
Where\'s Jamas at? How bout\' dem Chiefs?
Poor cardinals... whats funny is they actually thought they could beat the Niners...
Tai Streets... owns that Cardinal ass.
24-0.
*yawn*
-
*does a happy dance*
October 27th - the day of awesome 20-10 victories for teams that I like. Maybe the Chiefs can play on Monday Night, October 27th next year and get another one ;)
See Yuz.
-
I\'m bipolar while watching the niner game, when they have Barlow in I\'m euphoric and giddy, when they have Hearst in I\'m irritable and angry. God damn Mooch, let the youngster play!
-
Well, when that \'youngster\' fumbles the ball inside your own 10 yard line in a critical game, and you lose by 8, well, I\'d play the guy that put up 150 total yards and a TD as well :)
See Yuz.
-
What BS! Denver facemasked Brady sooo badly and they got away with it!
Why cant you challenge that?
-
Because the Pats blow.
-
Or maybe because they have a very difficult schedule.
The outlook is still positive, buffalo and Chicago coming up. They will be big games.
-
Pats suck!
God damn Niners, they had the ball on the 5, and could have gotten Barlow his thrid TD, but instead the kneel it down.
-
Yeah, thats why they won the Superbowl last year right?
-
They suck, not sucked :D
Hey, someone with stat tracker hook me up with the current scores. The way I have it is;
Me-81.84 Cloud-77.7
but I\'m probably wrong.
-
Its not looking good Omen...
Omen: 80.92
Cloud: 80.86
You have David Akers left, he has Mike Vanderjagt and Ike Hilliard.
-
god damnit...come on Akers, and philly defense!
-
Originally posted by The Hurricane

Well last year they didn\'t suck...
And I\'m gonna win again in the fantasy league...meaning the Osmosis Kittens will improve to 6-2. I\'m so beating Cloud next week too. He won\'t have Priest Holmes to save him this time.
-

You obviously didn\'t see the 1998 Nebraska/K-State game.
Oh, and Theomen, you\'ll get screwed. You\'ll win out after tommorow, but find out that you lost by 1.7. Ugh.
See Yuz.
-
Well, if I would have had Conway and Holt this week, I would be in alot better position than I\'m in now...god damn bye weeks, but hell that\'s part of the game. I\'m just surprised that my bench players are keeping me in this one.
-
But why the hell does Cloud end up catching everyone during their worst weeks? 4 of my 9 starters have byes when I play him next week :(
-
He has amazing luck, I just don\'t understand how he does it. Week in week out, he\'ll play a team when they have their starters on the bench.
-
Originally posted by shockwaves
Well last year they didn\'t suck...
They were in a worse position last year, relatively close to where they are now. They showed they can hang with the big teams and compete today. Mark my words, the Patriots will make the playoffs!
(and lets hope they win the superbowl while I\'m at it)
-
Yeah, but Mo Lewis isn\'t gonna bail em out again this year. :)
-
I have him when Bledsoe has a bye.... and his Holmes plays my Niners so that will be interesting.
-
The Patriots are a fluke...
-
I\'m gonna need a miracle if I\'m gonna win this week....

coming from the mouth of a fan of the over-rated Rams.
Pats started off better than anyone thought, but they\'re finding out the hard way that their defense needs work. A potent Buffalo will be expected to run over the Pats, but lets not count them out yet. There\'s still time.
-
You may do alright. Looks tight. I just hope my homey McNabb can pull it off. I have some making up to do tomorrow night.
-

also, the replay from sportscenter showed he grabbed the top of his helmet, not the facemask.
-
Vanderjecht only scored one point, so tomorrow night it\'ll be Ike Hillard vs David Akers....I might still have a chance for the win.
-
GO AKERS!! GO AKERS!!!
Come on Omen. You have the best shot at topling the motha.....
I am 15 down with Mcnabb to go. As long as he doesn\'t throw any TDs to Lewis I am hot to trot.
-
I really need McNabb to score me like 31.00 points, lets hope for many rushing TDs
-
Yeah, it\'s a MNF game too. Stars usually go nuts on MNF...

Watch him throw 2 TD\'s to Lewis, and Lewis ends up with 80 yards recieving :)
Now if only Sharpe had the same game he had last week, huh?
THE HUSKERS WILL PREVAIL. YOU CANNOT WIN. Wait. Yes you can...just...don\'t :(
See Yuz.
-
Damn, Philly better have one helluva game on the defensive side of the ball. They need to completly shut down the passing game, if I\'m going to have a chance this week.
-
You guys do remember that historically, Philly hasn\'t been great against the Giants, right? I think it will be relatively low scoring, and very possibly FG heavy.
-
/me rapes shockwaves for presenting the possibility that I still might have a chance at the win tonight

You do remember that "historically" Philly has not had a very good team in the past.
Don\'t try and bring me down biatch. McNabb is going to get me 2 touchdowns and hopefully at least one of them rushing.
-
I could see that. I\'m just saying as a team, that is what\'s happened. It won\'t be a 30-28 shootout or anything. However, I could see McNabb getting two scores.
-
Or, you know, it could be 13-10 Philly, and McNabb throws a TD pass to Lewis :)
*watches grossest episode of Dragonball ever*
Eeew...Anyway, Go Giants shutting down McNabb.
See Yuz.
-
Mcnabb just ran for 38, it\'s looking good for Vid thus far.
-
3 down, 12 to go. Come on Omen, where did akers learn how to kick?
-
Is it just me, or are the Refs blind?
-
Originally posted by Videoholic

Well, he can\'t throw. He\'s got approximately 20 yards passing so far. If he doesn\'t get into the end zone, and the Giants can hold, it looks good for me. Besides, I haven\'t seen a QB get 15 points on yards alone in a LONG time, but knowing my luck, who knows.
See Yuz.

Halftime...Omen up 7. It looks like it just might happen.

Vids wins on a McNabb scramble for a touchdown. Damn James, you have some horrible luck on monday nights.

I\'m starting to feel a bit snakebit...this is the 3rd tough loss I\'ve had in as many weeks. I\'m starting to wonder what I have to do to win a damn game :(
Oh well, for what I lost in that, I gained in an 88-87 win over 6-1 Shockwaves in the In Name Here Leauge. Pure Greatness :)
To next week, and hopefully to some better luck.
See Yuz.
-
Ok, I\'m getting a bit pissed...Who the f*ck is the owner of the "49Raiders"? Is it square_marker? I went through the archive of the fantasy football thread, and that\'s my only guess.
-
i don\'t know. I just know there are a hell of a lot of us at the top.
-
Yes, there are...I have an idea for next year, though, but I don\'t know if you\'ve already thought of it.
I don\'t know if Theomen\'s goona make it a Keeper League setup, but I think that we should basically keep the same teams (have new people who want in replace the people who were inactive or just plain didn\'t care), then, the people who absolutely sucked this year get 1st pick, 9th place with 2nd, 8th place with 3rd, etc. Just like a real football draft, the worst teams get the first pick as to who they want.
The Bottom 4 spots in the draft would be determined by how they finish in the playoffs, and not how they finished in the Regular Season. Thus, Cloud could still end up with, say, the 7th pick :-P
Just an idea, and yes, I\'m thinking ahead. Maybe I won\'t be as snakebit next year :(
See Yuz.
-
Cloud is on a downward spiral. Fingers crossed.. I\'m just glad he didn\'t go undefeated. He could easily lose 1 more, possibly even two more games.
-
Well, anybody who has a bunch of AFC West players is pretty much screwed, well, Broncos and Chiefs that is.
Tony, DEFEAT CLOUD. I\'ll give you a cookie if you do.
See Yuz.
-
I\'ll be sure to :)
And if we can keep this going long term, I really like James\' idea. Keep the entire team, and draft rookies like in a real draft. That\'d be great.
-
I like the idea too to keep the whole team. You then can drop people you don\'t want into the pool and aquire spots by how many people you drop.
-
James basically vocalized exactly what I was thinking, about having the league next year. Also, you will be able to trade future draft picks...just make sure you let me know about it, so that I can keep track.
-
I like it a lot. I say we use that for sure. Good idea James.
-
I like the idea as long as you get to keep even your top 2 rounds as well. The whole bottom rounds only thing was the only thing I thought was dumb before. Some negotiating in the off season could be done and it could be pretty fun.
-
Yeah, I agree. Your team is often built around your top picks, and if you lose them, it could destroy what you\'ve been working for. Offseason trades would be cool to.
We should really have a forum just for this league, for the offseason and all :)

Hehe they are just one loss ahead of the oh so terrible Rams who started 0-5...
Rams have a better chance of making it to the playoffs then the patriots...

Ah Clowd, the master of Bold Statements :)
Which Missouri team is going to make the Playoffs? KC, St. Louis, Both, Neither?
You know the Chiefs are goona make it ;)

If KC makes it they wont go far
St. Louis has hope, it may be small but it has hope
-
I\'m bored right now, so I\'m gonna post my projections for this week in the Fantasy league;
(winners in bold)
Omen\'s A$$ Badgers
THE MOTHER ****ERS -
This will be a game of the week, two of the 5 top teams fighting for a playoff spot. Both with 6-2 records, deffinetly a big game!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Osmosis Kittens!
Cloud345 -
A bit of an upset pick, but I think with Holmes on the bench Cloud will stumble and be delt his second loss this season. This is also a game of the week, if Shox looses he will be at the bottom of the playoff hunt....however if he wins, then it will bring Cloud down to earth, where he will have to fight for a playoff spot along with the other 5 teams.

Vapor Snake\'s Penis
Boston Massacre -
Vapor should be able to handle this one pretty easily, and will have his first win streak of the season!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nebraska Cornhuskers
SouthernPimps -
Luckee has been on a 7 game loosing streak, and I don\'t see him turning that around against James.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
49Raiders
Vid\'s Team Cocky -
Vid is playing the second worst team in the league, this should be a cake walk for him.
-
Haha, damn, you must be bored. Well, as far as all of that goes, I have to win out for the regular season to have any sort of a chance at the playoffs, and that just isn\'t going to happen. From now on, I am the spoiler, and I am here to **** up any team that\'s trying to make a playoff run :)
See Yuz.
-
Another thing about me vs. Cloud...he is playing Hilliard still, and Hilliard is out for the season. That should hurt him even more. :)
-
My FF pics.....
Team Cocky vs 49Raiders:
The Cocky will ride all over 49Raiders without even breaking a sweat.
A$$ Badgers vs Mother F\'ers:
Mother F\'ers will have this one. I know Omen doesn\'t want to hear it, but Luke has been the most consistent GM and will roll you like a dewbie.
Kittens vs. Cloud
Priest Holmes is out and Booger McFarland is injured on the Bucs Defense. This may cut down on the INTs that the bucs have been giving him. I think Cloud may be with the rest of the pack after this week. Kittens all the way.
Vapor vs. Boston
Vapor is on a roll. He actually has a 1 game win streak. Longest all year. I see him doubling his streak to a whopping 2 games.
Nebraska Cornhuskers vs Pimps
Luckee has no chance in hell of winning another game.
And that\'s all she wrote.
-
Deuce has a bye this week for me, im kinda worried about that.
I dont have much faith in Michael Bennet.
-
Hey Vapor, what\'s up with the benching of Alexander?
And also, what would you want for Favre? I\'m thinking about giving up on Daunte, so I need a new QB for the long run.
-
Anyone need a defense? I have two of the top defenses, and I can\'t play both of em :(
-
Yes, New England beat Buffalo, in your face sports reporters!

I had to roll the dice with Alexander, and I think it will payoff considering the huge game Zereoue had.
And I won\'t take Culpepper for Favre. :D
-
Looks like Omen is going to roll the Lukester..... Cloud is going down too. Looks like a good week in FF. I just hope I can pull my game out. I only have 3 guys left tomorrow night.
-
well what do you want for Favre?
-
what\'s the current score of mine and Luke\'s game?
-
90.18 - 81.56
You have 5 guys at the half and one more tomorrow night.
Luke has one guy at the half and one more tomorrow night.
And Vapor has his last guy at the half with a wopping 76 points.
-
way to go Vapor! Woooo! Anyways, atleast you\'ll get your first win streak of the season.
-
I never usually Post here, but since this looks like the place to do it... F*@& the Colts!!!! They show week in and week out they have the talent to do it, they show that if in a desperate comeback situation they can complete and score quickly and often...Their main problem, they jack around too long before they get it through their heads that they better score something soon.
Then you have idiots who can\'t count to three "hut\'s" before jumping, etc... How many offsides Tarik Glenn??? what 7 this season...
To top it all off, they have a defense that can do everything but stop the run. Big pass plays, no problem, run plays... and screens, hell no!!!
Okay, it has been three weeks in the works and I had to get it off my chest.
Back to supporting the Colts again next week.
Brad
-
Hmmm, you mean they play not to lose and then they have to play catch up in the end? hmm, sounds like the Bucs from the last several years.. Oh wait, Dungy....
-
Man, this rules. If LUKE loses, and I beat Cloud, then I could very well be in first place after this week :)
-
BUAHAHAHAHA!
Jose Cortez is my hero :)
-
It\'s official, Jose Cortez is a bitch!
-
I should be in 2nd place after tomorrow night. That is unless of course all hell brakes lose and none of my 3 dudes score me any points. I should be fine.
-
I should be in 2nd if LUKE wins, and 1st if Omen wins :)
Oh, and go Jets. Absolutely dominating the Chargers.
-
what\'s the current score?
I think I\'m behind by alot...
-
91.80- Omen
89.96- LUKE
Omen has Ricky Williams left, LUKE has Franks.
Omen should have this one won.
-
PEYTON MANNING IS KILLIN ME LATELY!
-
Wooooo! I\'m ahead!
If I win this one, I\'ll be a GOD! I have the toughest three game schedual in the league, and I might come out of it with a winning record. I have Cloud, Luke, and Shox all in a row.
-
I gotta go through the same thing. I have you next week, and then LUKE. one down, two to go.
-
I\'ve got Luke next week..... WOOT!!!
-
I\'ve got....
cloud.
-
I\'ve got crabs....and Shox.
-
I hate scrambling QBs. Even more after watching the overtime Raiders 49ers game.
Anyone else hate scrambling QBs?
Also would you have a McNabb (scrambling) or a Warner (pocket) on your team?
-
Scramblers are the way of the future, their ability to scramble provides a play action every play, holding the LB\'s at bay while they pick the field apart....reminds me of Steve Young, oh how I miss him, ugh anyways.... I\'d take a scrambler over a pocket passer any day.
-
I\'m with theomen on this one!!! Steve Young was incredible to watch.
-
Seriously, Cloud would you choose a pocket passer with a nice arm or a scrambling quarterback with a nice arm? Give me a Mike Vick over any Pocket Passer anyday.
-
How bout them Pats??? Back in the AFC race, and now with San Diego getting whooped by the Jets they are in as much contention as ever.
-
I think Clowd is smoking some good gonja. If two people are good passers and one can run, um... Why is this a question?
-
49Raiders, you were a formidable foe, but I don\'t even need to play tonight and I\'ve already whooped you. If I only knew who the heck you were.
NEXT!!!!
-
I wish I knew who he was, I\'ve offered some trades through the season and he wouldn\'t accept or decline them...I hate that!
Anyways, I\'m still looking for a starting QB to help me through the rest of the season and into the playoffs. I have my eye on Favre, Brady, Warner and Vick.
-
I\'d take McNabb over two Warners. And Warner isn\'t nearly the best pocket passer in the league, by the way. I\'d take a Favre or a Bledsoe over him any day.
-
favre is the best quaterback of all time.
ill take him over anybody, even though i hate the packers with all my heart.
-
If Favre had the kind of weapons that Warner had, he would have been unstoppable. Warner wasn\'t that great, he was lucky. It was the system, and it was the talent around him that made him look good.
-

Oh course, since you can only play one, I\'d trade one of em to someone else, for a position I need help at :)

cowboys lost...49ers won this day cant get anymore perfect..

Aww..... is our little clowd mad because the Niners completely own the NFC West?
Two Kurt Warner\'s don\'t even equal one Jeff Garcia if you ask me. Garcia is a clutch guy, got quick feet, can throw with pinpoint accuracy on the run, and take big hits.
Warner can\'t escape nagging injuries.
I\'m only willing to trade Favre, not Bledsoe. And it has to be for a TOP (And I mean, a TOP) WR or RB. I\'m talking like a top 3 guy, because Favre is a top 3 QB.
-
You worded that wrong Vapor.
-
Yes, you did :p
And Vapor, with that attitude, you will never get a trade. Favre is a great QB, but fantasy wise, he is not one of the top 3, for a combination of different reasons. Also, anyone who thinks QBs are worth as much as RBs and such in a league like this is a moron :p You don\'t need both, and unless you want both for keeper reasons, you should trade. I\'m not saying you should accept some average player, but I would never trade a top 7 RB (Faulk, Holmes, Williams, Tomlinson, McAllister, Alexander, Green, or something like that), or a top 7 WR (Harrison, Owens, Horn, Moulds, Price, Booker, Smith, etc.) for him. Where you got top 3 QB, I also don\'t know. He was like 5 or so last year I think, and he is 10th so far this year. You are asking way too much though, and will never help your team, or make a deal, this way.

Pats win and Miami/Oakland loses?! This has been a VERY good week.

all is well, RW has gotten me some more yards. I\'m feeling a win on the horizon.
-
Ah... right-oh... I\'m a moron.
Edited for viewers convience.
-
Man, I kick ass. The Osmosis Kittens are now in first place, leading Team Cocky by .14 points.
-
Until a scramble type QB wins a super bowl I\'ll stick with the pocket passer.
Yes Steve Young scrambled but he didnt average a 100 yards a game like Vick and others
-
the coming weeks will be hectic, all the winning teams play each other, Shox has two games against playoff teams, LUKE plays 3 in a row, and I finish my 3 weeks of hell against Shox. My only difficult game after that is the last game of the season against Vid.

Elway was a scrambler, like Favre is a scrambler. Neither were like Vick, but deffinetly weren\'t pocket passers!
Now for FFL news, I\'m back in the number 3 spot, and the 4 playoff spots are filled with 7-2 teams. It\'s gonna be a race to the end, all of the playoff teams have games against eachother over the next weeks, so it\'s gonna come down to the wire!
-
I didn\'t notcie that you said Steve Young didn\'t scramble for 100 yds a game....well of course he didn\'t. You are no longer talking about scrambling QB\'s, you\'re simply talking about McNabb and Vick. Technically here are some scrambling qb\'s;
Young
Elway
Favre
Garcia
Tarkington
here are some pocket passers;
Bledsoe
Marino
Warner
Aikman

Elway was known for tucking the ball and getting some yards, even taking a big hit every so often.

Thats what haters say about achievers...Phil Jackson is a great coach because he had talented players around him...etc
You ever seen warner play? His passes hit the reciever in the chest every time.
Someone said they rather have 1 Garcia then 2 Warners...hmmm I guess you didnt take into account Warner is the most accurate passer ever to play the game statisticly wise?
-
We all see how Warner is playing now. And if you want to claim Warner is the best pocket passer ever, we can continue to laugh at you.
-
Originally posted by Bozco

I said statisticly he is the most accurate QB ever. You want to deny that?
So what he had a 3 rough games at the start of the season. If you watched all the Rams games like I did you would know that the only game he really didnt do good in was the Tampa Bay game.
-
The only time I\'ve seen Warner play live was in the Arena League. There\'s a difference though. Phil Jackson is a great coach. You can see that, because before he took over the Lakers, they had no direction, and weren\'t getting anywhere. Since he took them over, they\'ve done nothing but win titles. There is that difference between him and anyone else. This year, Warner started the first couple of games, and the Rams offense looked awful. They lost every game he started. Now you have a third string QB who is easily out performing him in every part of the game, and is leading the team to victory after victory. The contrast here not only suggests that Warner is not anything out of the ordinary, but that he isn\'t that good at all. The same happened two years ago with Trent Green. Trent stepped in, and he actually had better numbers than Warner.
And you know why Warner is so accurate? Because the WRs on that team are so fast, and so talented, that they are wide open more than WRs on any other team. That means the completion percentage should be highers, and would be with any QB you put in there.
And Clowd, I watched the Giants game that Warner was in. He looked horrible.
-
I won\'t pretend I\'m a football expert ... but from what I\'ve seen on sports center, sportsrise ect ect, is that the Rams CURRENT QB isn\'t doing much of anything; Marshall Faulk has taken over. The way it always should have been IMO. So that doesn\'t really mean that Kurt Warner "isn\'t that good", just that they relyed on him too heavily.
-
Any QB could have done what Warner was doing. And someone like Bret Farve could have done it better with talent like that surrounding him.
-

I\'m guessing you missed the \'99 NFL season? The Rams were going nowhere with Trent Green. But soon as Warner took over the Rams started winning games and went to the superbowl. Warner also led what some consider the best offense in the history of the NFL.
-
And you honestly think he was what made it the best? No. It was Faulk, Holt, Bruce, and the O Line. He was in the right place at the right time, nothing more. And by your logic, Bulger is better than Warner. After all, the team was going no where at the start of the year with Warner, and are a high powered offense again with Bulger.
-
Who do you guys think is the biggest surprise QB so far?
I\'m definately eyeing Pennington, this guy has an arm.
-
MIKE MCMAHON!
BEARS PLEASE TRADE FOR MIKE MCMAHON!

Defending Clowd - fun.
He\'s exactly right, Trent Green wasn\'t going to take them to the Super Bowl. The Right place at the right time? Somebody has to throw that football, and as of right now, Kurt Warner is officially the highest QB Rated QB of all time.
Trent Green wasn\'t going to throw that football, that\'s for damn sure. Warner had the weapons, sure, but so have other teams. Hell, look at the Vikings from the year before. Great offensive weapons, yet still lost in the NFC Title game at home to the Falcons.
Warner wasn\'t the reason that the Rams weren\'t going anywhere, Martz was. Ignorance and thickheadedness did Warner in at the begining of the year, and finally Martz is listening to his critics, and playing Faulk a lot more. Lo and behold, 3 straight wins, and they look like the Rams again.
Warner IS a great pocket passer, his accracy is uncanny in the National Football League. Uncanny.
See Yuz.
-
Pfft, like you know anything about football ;)
Warner was in the right place at that right time, and until he proves that he can play the same way with fewer weapons, I will continue to believe that. The Vikings team you referred to had a good offense, but even they were nothing compared to what the Rams have had. The Rams have the best RB in the game, one of the best (if not the best) WR duos in the league, and quite a nice offensive line to go along with that.
And what does Martz have to do with Warner playing bad? The reason Martz was an idiot was because he went to Warner too often, and Warner couldn\'t handle it. The year started with the Rams once again throwing as much as they could, and despite great WRs, and a great pass catching RB, that did not work. Why? Because Warner can\'t carry a team that way as a QB. You think they would have still lost those games, throwing that much, if they had Favre in there? Not a chance.
-
When you make yourself one-dementional, you\'re not going to win 90% of the time. Favre didn\'t start winning divisions and his title until he got Dorsey Levens up to full speed. Not to toot my own horn, but without Ahman Green, the packers would be nothing, and without Faulk, the Rams would be nothing.
See Yuz.
-
A good quarterback can take his team on his shoulders when they\'re struggling and carry them to victory. Warner hasn\'t been able to. One dimensional or not, they looked pretty damn bad with him.
-
Alright, then please, list the Quarterbacks who can actually do this, or have done this. Every one of them probably had a decent supporting cast. Heck, the only one that I can really think of right now doing a lot of the load is a Rookie, so who knows.
See Yuz.
-
Yes, you don\'t have QBs carrying the whole load because any coach with half a brain knows that you need a running game to win games. I think that it can be even more important than a passing game. However, during the time when Warner was carrying the load, he never seemed to have a stretch of time this year when he was able to put his team on his back and carry them, even for part of a game. There are other QBs who can do that.
Oh, and you want a QB that has pulled a load for his team, and done so effectively? Look at McNabb when Staley was hurt.
-
Bah, I wouldn\'t say that. Correll Buckhalter was pretty damn good last year in Staley\'s absense, and Buckhalter also scored 2 TD\'s on the Bucs in the 1st round of the playoffs last year.
Oh, and that Philly defense was also pretty damn good last year :)
See Yuz.
-
Last I checked, McNabb doesn\'t play at the same time as the defense. Last I checked, the Rams defense wasn\'t that bad either.
-
Last I checked, the Philly D is also on the same team as McNabb.
Not sure if that changed or not.
See Yuz.
-
But how exactly is the Philly D going to have much of an effect on how well McNabb plays?
-
actually a good D, could hurt the QB\'s numbers because he wouldn\'t be playing catchup, thus wouldn\'t be throwing as much. However it could also help him, because it would limit his time off the field, if it held the opponent to few 1st downs.
-
But that, in turn, could lead to him being tired, if he has to play for a majority of the game time, and that could lead to interceptions and other mistakes.
-
Without the Philly D McNabb and their offense would score 7 points a game
-
Ha, care to explain that reasoning?
-
wouldnt it be that without their D, their offense would have a bunch of points since theyd get the ball so much?
-
Well, assuming that they do still have some D in there (although a bad one), it wouldn\'t. The other team would always go on long drives, meaning the offense would have the ball less than if a good defense forced three and outs. The offense would also have worse field position, on average, with a worse defense.
-
Or be getting all of its\' field position from Kickoffs, like the Chiefs :(
That Clowd comment....I don\'t know what you mean by that =P
See Yuz.
-
Originally posted by shockwaves

Their defense gives them good field position. If you watch how hard it is for the Eagles to move the ball its pathetic. If McNabb was a pocket QB they would score 0 a game. (Alot of exaggeration)
-
There we are. You\'re right, they can\'t move the ball for their life. They haven\'t scored 40 points in quite some time (I believe it was against the Chiefs the last time they did it :()
Speaking of the Chiefs, 4-4, and going to go on a large run and make the playoffs by the end...to lose to the....well...The Chiefs can beat anybody in the AFC :)
See Yuz.
-
They remind me of Virginia Tech. When its time for them to throw the ball to catch up, will they be able to do it? McNabb is averaging 5 yards a pass...
-
The Patriots are gonna bury Chicago this weekend.
-
well it looks like David BUSTon is out for the season, he has a torn patellar. Sucks for James, because Boston is one of his starters, I guess it\'s time to hit the old waiver wire, or start making some deals.

the bears are so due its not even funny, and they came real close to beating philly last week.
not that im biased or anything but the bears over the pats is my upset pick of the week.
-
I like the Pats big in that game as well. Chicago is just not the same team it once was.
-
you mean last year? cause i know your too young to remember \'85... shit im too young to really remember \'85.
dont forget the pats were 3-13 the year before they won the super bowl.
the bears will soon be at thier rightfull place among the NFL\'s elite.
p.s. \'85 Bears BEST TEAM EVER!
-
I see the Pats tearing up the CHicago secondary, and a correction.
they were 5-11 in \'00 and 11-5 in \'01

You are clearly pulling that out of your ass. The Eagles average the 2nd most yards per game of any NFC team. They move the ball better than most teams out there, including the Packers, Niners, Saints, and Rams. They scored over 40 against Dallas, which does have a decent D, 37 against the Skins, and 35 against the Texans. They are third most in points in the NFC, behind only the Saints and the Packers, at over 27 points a game. But the bottom line is, they move the ball better than almost any other team in the NFC, with the second most yards per game. If you are going to claim something like that, make sure it\'s true first.
-
For those in the FF League, here is the layout for the keeper league;
You can keep the following;
1QB
2RB
2WR
1TE
and 2 Extra Spots
The Draft postions will be decided by the worst record at the end of the season will get the first draft spot, and the place you finished in the playoffs.
Also, if I think anyone is purpously loosing games so that they can get the first draft spot, I\'ll put you at the last spot. Another thing, the teams that have been very unactive will have their players taken and given to a new manager (49raiders, and Cloud could be the cassualties. Cloud will be pulled because even though he checks on his team and sets his starters, he doesn\'t really take part in the league like the other teams. The 49raiders will be pulled because he doesn\'t do shit other than set his roster, and we have no idea who the hell he is)
-
Has luckee been doing stuff in the league?
-
he hasn\'t been active since oct. 22nd
-
And when he came on during the 22nd, didn\'t he post something saying he wouldn\'t be paying attention?
-
don\'t remember, did he? Well if he continues to be inactive, then his team will be up for grabs.

I dont adjust my thoughts of a team by stats. I dont like stats.

Heh, so you are telling me that even though the Eagles get the 2nd most yards per game, and the 3rd most points per game, you are sticking with your opinion that they can\'t move the ball? Sad.

You probably haven\'t seen them play this season so you look at stats and think they will tell you how a team is performing...
The Eagles had 300 yards rushing vs the Giants but Only scored what was it 20 points? So if a stat person like you looked at this game you would think they had a very good game offensivley, but the truth is they didnt. McNabb saved them with his scrambling abilities
-
That isn\'t at all true. First of all, I have watched them several times. In that Giants game, Duce Staley tore them apart, for a ton of yards. The Giants just happen to be one the very best red zone Ds in football...I didn\'t see St. Louis score all that much on em either. Besides, you were talking about them moving the ball anyway, so you can throw scores out the window. McNabb never saved them from anything. His scrambles were late in the game, while the Eagles were ahead anyway, and when the Giants were playing him differently, only because of what Staley had been doing all day. It was Staley that opened up those running lanes for McNabb. I mean, did YOU see the game?

James, check the league, you have a trade offer. I saw that your boy Boston went down, so I offered you a trade that gives you a bit more depth at WR.

Last Week: 12-2

Here are my week 10 FFL predictions;
Winner in bold
Omen\'s A$$ Badgers
The Osmosis Kittens!
This is the game of the week, #1 vs #3, both with the same record. Shox beat me the first week of the season, but I have a different team now, and I\'ll get my revenge.
Vapor Snake\'s Foot
Cloud345
A slight upset, though record wise this is a huge upset. I think that this week just favors Vapor, and if Cloud doesn\'t do something drastic he\'s gonna miss the playoffs.
Nebraska Cornhuskers
Boston Mediocre
I\'m giving this one to James, but with David Boston out for James, it could go either way.
49Raiders
SouthernPimps -
Most boring game of the week, I give this one to the 49raiders.
Vid\'s Team Cocky
THE MOTHER ****ERS
A bit of an upset, but I think that LUKE will take Vid this week. LUKE has his 2 star RB\'s back this week, and Vid is missing soe WR talent. It\'ll be close, but in the end I give it to LUKE because of Vids week Wr\'s.
-
I don\'t know Omen. Sure, you have a new look team, but I would never go and underestimate the power of an Osmosis Kitten. They are very magical creatures, and where they go, winning seems to follow. Besides, you aren\'t the #2 team :p
-
corrected my typo on being number 2. but then again, I\'ll be number 1 after tomarrow ;)
And if I beat you, and LUKE beats Vid, I\'ll be one whole game on top of everybody! But then again, if you beat me, and LUKE beats vid, you\'ll be a game on top, and that will make baby Jesus cry.
-
No, that will make baby Jesus happy. Afterall, those who know the history of the Osmosis Kittens know that the original team name was the Carolina Jesus Kittens. Then, to make jewish members of the team happy, it was changed to the Jesus-Moses Kittens. After a while of saying that long name quickly, Jesus-Moses simply became Osmosis. Strange but true.
And omen, look at the league. Tell me if you are interested at all in what I offered. I think that maybe we could work something out if we talk about a trade enough.
-
I saw the trade, and I sent a message along with my decision. It\'ll be difficult for us to get a deal done, because I\'m pretty much only interested in getting an upgrade at wideout. And because Harrison is averaging a tenth of a point less than Ward, and a tenth more than Conway, those guys would be a wash. I have Holt and Keyshawn who I\'d package, but you probably won\'t be interested in that trade.
-
Omen, I\'m not sure if I\'m going to get the e-mail. I actually don\'t think the e-mail that yahoo redirects stuff to is accurate anymore. I now use a yahoo account for e-mail, but a different one from the fantasy one, so I can\'t have it sent there. Anyway, could you PM me what you said?
Also, if it would help at all, I could trade one of my defenses. I have 2 of the top 3 defenses I believe, including the best one over the past month or so. So one of those would be available.
-
PMed you
as for defense, I have both the 4th and 5th ranked D\'s
-
To correct you once again, you actually have the 4th and 6th ranked defenses. The 5th is Carolina :)
-
I don\'t go by KFFL, hell they have Oaklands D at number one.
Tampa Bay (DEF-TB)
Green Bay (DEF-GB)
Philadelphia (DEF-Phi)
San Diego (DEF-SD)
Pittsburgh (DEF-Pit)
-
Neither do I. You\'re just seeing it wrong because no one has Carolina on their team.
Tampa Bay: 8
Green Bay: 27
Philadelphia: 64
San Diego: 87
Carolina: 91
Pittsburgh: 108
-
correct you are, never mind.
-
Dang Luke, you are cooking!! This is ridiculous. Manning is smoking the Eagles D....
-
Bulger is a bad ass mofizo! I know that right now Shockwaves is cursing Bulger\'s talented ass...hehehehe....
-
Omen, I offered you a trade.
-
I saw, I\'m thinking it over.
-
The first time since 1997 a TIE! Steelers VS Falcons ended up in a tie!
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
it was a hell of a game, a blocked field goal with a second left and then a hail marry down to the one yard line, a real heart breaker.
-
My players are having some big games today, Bulger, Ward, Holt, Alecander not too shabby so far. Shox will have his work ahead of him if he wants to win this week.
-
Niners look like they\'re gonna beat the Chiefs! Sucks for James, but good for me and Vapor.
-
Early prediction for next week.
OMEN and the KITTENS will get OWNED!!!!
Then I\'ll get right back in there for my playoff position.
-
well I play Vapor next week, so don\'t hold your breath.

*cries*
If you would have told me that the 49ers wouldn\'t score in the 2nd half, would have only been up 17-10 at halftime, and they would have won, I would have laughed at you. But lo and behold, the Chiefs D gives up WAY too many 3rd down conversions (10 of 15), had to stop 3 in a row in order to get it to 10 of 15. Trent Green takes a couple of critical sacks, and the play calling after the 3 great plays to get it down to the 40 in 16 seconds did them in. Should have done a draw play with 3rd and 11 to try and fake them out. Either way, Kennison should have caught the ball.
Another tough loss. Chiefs are 4-5, and all of the 5 losses are by 7 points are less. It\'s been a rough year footballwise....
See Yuz.

someone with stat tracker post the current scores
-
ANyone watching this bullshit of a bears game. The lead they blew...now this :(
-
If you cant hold a 11 point lead for 3 minutes you deserve to lose
-
i really can\'t believe they\'re going to loose, what a bunch of shit!

Exactly.
Bears handed the game away.
-
YES YES YES!!!!!!!
Patriots are the greatest team in NFL history!!! That was the best game all season, the Pats proved why they are world champs.
-
ummm...the pats didn\'t win the game, the Bears just lost it.
-
no they didnt. they proved they were smart enough to still win against a team that doesnt know how to hold 4th quarters together.
-
OMG, I went away to give Logan a bath and assumed they won. HAH, what a joke..
Well it probably gave Luke some more much needed fantasy points.
-
about the bears...
what can i say except they are losers, plain and simple.
losers losers losers losers.
-
And the Pats are the defending world champs, who could wake up tomorrow in first place with a Jets win tonight.
-
Well, I\'m down by like 40 points in our league now. I have Elam, Smith, and McCaffrey playing on Monday though. I wouldn\'t say that you have it in the bag yet. Especially if Martin keeps running well.
-
yeah, I was counting on Williams to get me more points than he is. I\'m not as happy now as I was earlier....
-
I still have a shot.
If Shannon Sharp can get me 10 touchdowns and 60 yards then I am in....
Damn, nothing worse than having a +100 game and still losing by 50+
-
Well, the Jets are winning, and if the Jets are winning, and Miami is losing then the Jets should run more. That\'s a good thing :)
-
I\'m hoping that Ricky will get some late game carries, as he\'s a bruising back and should be able to wear down the defense. If god damn ray lucas could pass the ball, RW wouldn\'t be facing a 9 man front.
-
Well, I\'m still down 40, with 3 people to play. 40 sure as hell isn\'t out of the question for those 3...who knows?
-
damnit, and I won\'t be able to watch the game tomorrow because of a study group. I\'ll be worrying about it all night, well maybe not, but it might be on my mind a little.

...and that\'s because of lucky breaks!
Way to almost lose to one of the league\'s worst teams. The Patriots suck dick.
-
or the Bears or getting better...
You don\'t score 24 points in the last half and suck, I\'m sorry but until they LOSE to a bad team they are still contenders in my book, and AFC EAST, AFC, and World champions...

How is Chicago not a bad team? Haven\'t they lost 7 in a row now? what\'s your prerequisit for bad? Do they have to lose 8?
-
Bears blow this year. Enough said.

:(

Well said Luke...
ANd with that I will begin a new thread.
