Late games open thread

Email
PrintThe early games of the Eagles bye week are in the bag, so here's place to discuss the 4pm(and later) contests. Actually, these 4pm games should be pretty good.
Bills at Dolphins, Jets at Saints, St. Louis at San Fran, and the game that will most interest Eagles fans the Cowboys on the road to face the Broncos. Go Dawk!
Later, the Steelers try to keep it classy against the Chargers.
Also, what did you think of the NFL Red Zone channel on Comcast?

0-0 but the Broncos Defense is absolutely handling Romo and the Boys.
Romo sacked twice in their first possession.

sorry, i meant to post that "whats the score" under the bengals/browns.
i’m watching the dallas game.
I started Choice
and barber is rippin it up. So much for the analysts predicitions of his leg still hurting. F*ers
Yeah...
…stupid Banner thought he had “outlived his usefulness”
"Right now Winston Justice is the guy...until that person gets back out there"
I’d still rather have Buck. His production per touch is rediculous.

i loved buck, but...
you can’t ask for more than mccoy has given in his role so far.
vs panthers : 9 carries, 46 yards (5ish ypc)
vs saints: 5 carries, 18 yards (3.5ish ypc…not great)
vs chiefs: 20 carries, 84 yards, 1 td (over 4 ypc)
that’s a pretty good start. I don’t think buck would get us much better. I did love that guy though
Man...
…wouldn’t it be nice if we had a veteran leader at the free safety position who could make big hits? If only we had had someone like that…
"Right now Winston Justice is the guy...until that person gets back out there"
Reid is truly the worst.
"Right now Winston Justice is the guy...until that person gets back out there"
its weird to see former eagles play
like Dawkins, Buck, and Amendola haha.
RIP Jim Johnson. You will truly be missed.
Romo is the most mistake prone QB out there
He’s a GOOD QB, but Dallas fans have to hold their breath every tim ehe drops back
E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

Great 3 and out, Denver.

Romo got nailed on that last 3 and out. If Denver’s offense can click, they should get the W, because the Dallas offense is shut down.

yea..sacks...
that’s nice too, but the stuff that matters on every pass, the fact he’s making Romo scared and destroying teh OT in front of him, is why he’s really good.
Sacks are one thing, Pressure many times is just as good.
What the f$%k is the internet?
This is true, but you have to get a few smacks in there to create fear of the pass rush.

true..
but sorry to bring the Giants up, but we had 3 sacks going into today, and it mattered none cuz tehy were killing teh QB as soon as he threw and it led to bad passes.
But the sacks are always nice too.
What the f$%k is the internet?
Romo looks like crap...
tho his WR blow balls too. They’re all idiots.
I don’t want to give dallass any ideas, but they should just run the ball and throw screens to the backs on every play….

Ignore the Denver offense and the whole ‘orton isn’t good enough’
The defense has given up 24 or 26 (Fox said 26) points over 4 games (for the math challenged, that’s last than a touchdown a game)

Sure, but they were mostly in the first half – the mark of a good coach is how they adjust.

I can’t wait till Nnamdi Asomugha is covering his best WR. Nnamdi will probably get like 3 picks.
RIP Jim Johnson. You will truly be missed.

Speaking of FOX
Soo, I looked to next week’s game using my guide…and guess what I don’t see?
An Eagles game. It’s already Week 5, and I’ve yet to see a single Eagles game on TV. So, what gives? Is FOX and CBS protesting the Eagles and Redskins (who also get no love…although, losing to the Lions and barely beating the Bucs really shouldn’t garner ANY love).
Any way of me somehow sharing my hate to the FOX execs…or whoever? Because..I’m really pissed off.
I really don’t think there’s any ‘hatred’ – they like to take the best H2H matchups for national games – with national interest – Panthers, Saints not exactly huge national draws compared to what the other games were.
It also depends on what market you are in and what other teams are available…being on the west coast chargers/49ers/rams/raiders and the NFC West / AFC west tend to get preference where I am. For instance today even though my guide said cowboys broncs i got 49ers/Rams…which i just turned off

You would think they’d show an NFC East game if a Giants game isn’t showing (like 2 weeks ago against the Saints and next week).
And another thing- I’d understand if they were gonna show a good game. But, they don’t. In fact, they show movies.

Well, CBS usually never shows Eagles game, since they're more of an AFC channel
I’m mostly talking about FOX. CBS at least both promises a double header, and shows them both. FOX, ever week, has been promoting their double header, etc. Then when the day comes, they only show one- usually a Giants game, or if their not playing, some terrible game that most people wouldn’t give a rat’s ass about (Bucs and Bills…seriously?)
by LegendKnight22 on Oct 4, 2009 8:06 PM EDT up reply actions
I don’t know much about the NYC market but I expect the Jets being on gets in the way…for instance today FOX had the double header but I expect in NY they blacked it because a movie would draw more because of the Jets?
There’s usually reasoning and rules behind it and remember they don’t care so much about what airs they just care about getting what they think is the maximum possible viewership n the time slot

Since when do the Bucs and Bills get viewers? Also, they completely blacked out the Saints and Eagles game- a marquee match up between two playoff contenders.
The same during week 1- Eagles at Panthers- another great mathup.
Both brought a huge amount of viewers.

Because the cowboys are a bigger national draw (outside of Dallas) than the Eagles are (outside of Philadlephia) – trust me – i used to go to sports bars out here – the nfc east team least represented was usually the eagles.

When I say out here – i mean out here where i live – 3,000 miles from Philadelphia.
As for the cowboys being a bigger national draw – I’m sorry you don’t believe me – it’s sad and true, just like in baseball you get yankees or red sox a lot nationally because they are more popular nationwide.
New York is the kind of city that draws folks from everywhere…I wouldn’t be surprised to see a cowboys game pull bigger numbers than an eagles game as they have the ‘tony romo’ pop culture draw as well

Well, New Orleans won beating a previously undefeated Jets team which doesnt mean a whole lot but since that is the Eagles only loss this season, it might inspire a little bit of confidence in the Eagles. I had a feeling after the New Orleans game that it was in fact New Orleans being awesome as opposed to the Eagles being sucky.
The eagles rise
Since the Bucks come in for a last minute win, and the cowgirls fell to the broncos, we rise to second in the division without doing anything. Laziness conquers this time though I am bummed that their Bye week was so early although it gave McNabb a week to rest.

To jemagee
Thank you for pointing out my spelling error and I agree it will be decided most on division games but the more often we end up in secnd or first place the more we are guaranteed to end up on top.

Not only your spelling error but the fact that you said the Bucs won – and they didn’t – so you were factually and grammatically incorrect.
Course I should have known from your screen name
Don't frack with me or you'll get a punch in the kidneys...you've been warned

Sorry
My screen name was my dad’s choice and on the acount of my error was because my brother’s team is the Carolina panthers so that game I had to celebrate no matter who won and I got mixed up in the comotion also spelling was never my strongsuit sorry for my folly jemagee.

Go America. Go Broncos.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
Five games.
Can you believe we have five games in november.

Anyone else
Catch that Steelers-Chargers game? It was pretty much a blowout, and people were beginning to leave..
Then Philip Rivers went all PHILIP RIVERS on the Steelers. And, the Steelers S/T stinked up the place. Final was 35-28
It was 28-0 until the third quarter.
Oh, but the Chargers still lost
But, Rivers completely dominated, and got me a win in Fantasy.
