Topic: NFL 2013 Regular season

[Lord Raven]

anyone else question that we are in the year 2013 and we use chains to measure the downs

two thousand thirteen people

nfl is a billion dollar industry

chains.

How else do you suggest they do it?  Chains make it a pretty quick process, considering they have like 10-15 refs on the field per play it's easy to see where exactly it was spotted.  Hash marks help a ton too, and they have a ref whose sole purpose is to follow the ball.  Refs are fairly efficient too with it (although the first down marker isn't bad and if a spot is necessary they it's easy to see the chains in a replay).

Anyway, lol Saints are getting absolutely destroyed...

The Seahawks are in my top 3 favorites.

On the fumble return for the TD, their fans registered on the Richter Scale. lol

[Lord Raven]

Cardinals are my favorites from that division (even last year with that almost historic level of offensive ineptitude after Kolb went down) but Seahawks aren't far behind.  I lump them in a group "Victims of Pittsburgh."

[SirBlaziken]

Raven, your thoughts on the Steelers game please.

[Lord Raven]

Dolphins have a great front 7, but they also suck.  Steelers can take it.

[SirBlaziken]

I should've been more specific. I meant the one on Thanksgiving day, although that info is helpful.

I'm not even gonna ask about my game, we're gonna get blown out.

[the bread dragon]

if we lose i will hide my face in shame for at least a week

[Lord Raven]

Oh

I don't care that Tomlin cluelessly put his foot on the field, I care that the ref blatantly missed it.  I was mad when we started running the prevent with 6 minutes left when they needed a TD/2Point to tie it, and I was mad when they put Corey Graham on Antonio Brown.  What the hell is that?  Graham's best against the slot receiver and sometimes the #2 (Webb's the smartest guy on our secondary too so if someone like Welker were in the slot then we'd put Webb on him).  And he missed a very blatant assignment that allowed Pittsburgh to get a TD, and then we had to put in Chykie Brown who I forgot existed until that game.  At least Minnesota is super one dimensional as a defense, just stack the box; Cassell (I think Ponder's out) is easy mode and worst case there's Freeman lol...


Toothless Hawkins - who is your team?

[the bread dragon]

the patriots

julian edelman was my sig for like 2 days you didnt notice/take a hint???

[SirBlaziken]

So, in other words, you're not happy about that game. Figured. I'm not sure whether or not Ponder is out, though.

Hawkins, if your team somehow loses to us, I'm gonna laugh.

[the bread dragon]

and ill make rubbish excuses and we can laugh at those too

[SirBlaziken]

Good.

I think Weeden my be ok to play. I've heard things.....

Although, the other guy is probably better.

[the bread dragon]

is the 'other guy' brian hoyer or something?

edit woo 100th post whoopty doo is this at all important?

[Lord Raven]

hoyer's out with an acl tear, campbell has a concussion...  the other guy is caleb hanie, who sucks.  and alex tanney, who's a UDFA rookie...

[the bread dragon]

i recognize hanie's name from somewhere... was he a backup for other teams in recent years? chicago maybe? and udfa's are no good... looks like the browns wont be passing much.
this is why they shouldve kept richardson, for games like this, where he can run all over everybody
