The NFL

“Denver could use a coach. Gruden would be a good one.”

“The NFL needs stadiums that have a NASCAR tracks around the Hand Egg Field. Crossing the track could be tricky when the 'D' replaces the 'O' and all that other armored confusion. Maybe wrestling in the middle of the 50 yard line could carry the show when a yellow flag and an instant replay review swim into the stew.”

“How 'bout them Cowboys?”

“colts in meltdown mode”

“trade manning”

“Breaking News: Dallas Cowboys and Monday Night Football Legend Don Meredith Dead at 72”

“Sad - I liked the Merideth (at least what I saw on TV).

Hard to figure what's up with Manning. His mechanics look off to me, but I don't have the greatest eye for that kind of thing. Is there an injury?

Being only one game behind the Jaguars and playing them at home in a couple weeks - the Colts could still get it together in time to make the playoffs and make a run. Hard to see that happening at the moment.”

“colts are decimated with injuries to some of their biggest weapons (clark, collie, addai, etc), and their o-line play is by far the worst that manning has ever had. the run-blocking is pathetic. the player lost to injury that has hurt them the most has been clark. with him out of the picture, and the run game getting no production, opposing defenses have been able to clamp down on the remaining receivers, with the result being manning forcing throws with startling consistency. 11 picks in the last 3 games (2 of those games at home). i think 4 of those int's were pick-sixes

mannings been spoiled for the last decade-plus. now he's finding out what life in the nfl is really like”

“So Crash - you think he is adjusting poorly to his mediocre support - or doing as well as could possibly be expected.

Tonight - the Jets are looking totally hapless. They aren't as bad as they look, Pats aren't as good as they look now. (score 24:3 at the moment)”

“I was getting killed at fantasy but Brady & the Law Firm put me over the top.

The Colts' problem is O-line. Their biggest loss is in coaching staff. They won't be successful if Manning has to coach too. Aikman spoke from experience.”

“you think he is adjusting poorly to his mediocre support

yes”

“The Bronco's finally pulled the trigger, speculation in town is that the whole Spygate II thing was too embarassing to ownerhsip and the boy wonder just had to go. They may even try to say it was 'firing with cause' and NOT pay him out the several million he's owed. That would be nice coz they are still paying Shanahan. Paying 3 head coaches might be a bit much to take on.

Wonder if Gruden likes to ski......”

“Raiders fans get their asses kicked by minivan driving Chargers fans.

In other news:

The NTSB is still investigating the fatal Jet crash in Foxborrow where the search for the black box continues. One investigator stated, "The devistation and wreckage is so widespread this will take some time to figure out how the crash actually happened.".

And still in other news:

Colts are 6-6.”

“Colts are 6-6.

which would be a GOOD season in cleveland or cincinnati”

“Colts vs Titans tonight. Both teams are on 3 and 5 game losing streaks so someone has to win unless it is a tie...lol”

“colts are having one of their worst seasons in the manning era, and still have just one less win than the TWO ohio teams combined

LOLOHIO”

“That's my take on teh Bronco's game this week Ewker. Both team are 3 - 9 - so SOMEONE will get a 4th win!”

INDIANPOLIS — Peyton Manning, who has struggled with interceptions and is in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time since 2001, has replaced elder brother Cooper as the most disappointing member of the Manning family, marking the only time the pecking order has changed amongst the brothers in almost a decade.

“Not going to lie, it feels great to not be the crappiest Manning for once,” beamed Cooper after discovering his mundane and unremarkable life is no longer as bad as throwing 11 interceptions in a three week span. “For this to happen right around the holidays is amazing too. Looks like ol’ Cooper won’t be the last to get his Christmas turkey this year. Suck on that Peyton.””

“2-10”

“Keep them out of LA, that town doesn't need hand egg.

“cooper, or as peyton, eli, and archie call him, cupper...how can you not pronounce your own brother's/son's name?”

“...and in regards to the pacers, they're actually not too bad this year...provided they only play on the road”

“Wow Manning's Ponies barely squeaked by in a against a team in free fall even with two turn overs by the Titans to none for the Ponies. At least the Titans didn't catch any Manning passes and it is a road win. If they can get by the Jags next week, they might even have a post-season.”

“they might even have a post-season.

“raiders shouldnt have had to have challenged that call”

first 45-3 is the new 18-1, and now this”

“The Jets oughtta fire that guy.”

“the colts are making their fans see how the other half lives this year...they have to win sunday or rely jax loosing in order to make the playoffs

i like this a lot better than the last 2-3 games of the season meaning nothing...i don't think that sets a good vibe going into the playoffs”

“at home against tn. they got addai back. they got clint session back. they got gary brackett back. they got their run game going.

they got this”

“true, but it's a devision game and TN has nothing to win and nothing to lose”

“and colts have everything to win and everything to lose

WOW SYMMETRY!”

“think fisher will get the axe?”

“possibly. theyve been mired in mediocrity long enough”

“colts are 9.5 point favorites (makes sense)

i cant believe jags are only 3-point 'dogs. theyre on the road with both garrard and jones-drew out. that means somebody thinks theyre as good as houston even with their top rb and top qb out

meh”

“Saints need the win...and go Panthers.”

“nice opening defensive stand”

“Let's go Pack!

(I got a banana split riding on the Packers in the playoffs)”

“STEELERS AFC North Champions!!! Woot!”

One of those teams will be in L.A. soon.

I lost a bet with a guy I told Denver would win 2 games - thye won 4. I also said the Cowboys & Jets wouldn't make the playoffs. I was half right.

How 'bout them Cowboys?”

“Tango - I zerbert you! (Go Ravens!) I'll give you this, your guys sure did have a runaway yesterday. And our game was a snoozer until late in the 4th - as usual our defense just about gave up the whole game in the 4th.”

“LOL@techntrek I agree Go home ravens!!!! Our 2nd stringers were playing. You can't ever stop watching until there triple 0's on the clock!”

“jesus. how sh8t-tier are the west divisions? the nfc west division champ finished 7-9 and had to fend off a st. louis team featuring a rooke qb to do it. the raiders, who went 6-0 against their division, went 2-8 against the rest of the league. the chargers finished with the #1 offense AND defense, and still managed to miss the playoffs

west, i am disappoint”

“So they move the Panthers to L.A....no wait, the Bills to L.A....”

“Who Dat!”

“Seahawks!
