Jon Abraham got snubbed and he has 15 sacks! Shit like this is why I hate fan voting.

The only reason why Yao Ming starts every year in the All-Star game is because the Chinese can even vote.

Yeah, it's bad in the NBA too. I like fan voting and I participate most years, but if people are just stuffing the ballot on behalf of recognizable names then fuck it. The purpose has been defeated.

I think it's safe to say that the Ravens, after 12 years, have finally found their quarterback. Joe Flacco is steady beyond his years. Romo looked like the rookie at times tonight.

The Eagles are right back into the thick of the hunt now. I think that they'll beat Dallas at home next week, go to the playoffs, and that Donovan McNabb will be telling a lot of people to kiss his ass.

I'll gladly admit when i'm wrong and I must admit my folly in saying that Flacco was a reach in the first round. The kid can play. There is no doubt about it.

What a great rookie class this is shaping up to be. Matt Ryan, Flacco, Matt Forte, and Chris Johnson are definitely playing like veterans. Jerod Mayo of NE is playing lights out as well.

I'm so happy the Ravens beat the crybabies, I mean Cowboys.

Jacksonville is going to be a challenge though. Victory means playoffs.

All the Redskin fans at my school are always talking about how lame Flacco is, but they have two QB's who don't even try, while we have one who's working his ass off to get us further.

They also brought up the Ravens-Steelers game, as if it was actually an embarassing defeat. Apparently they forgot that they lost to Ocho Stinko and the Bengals (The BENGALS for fuck's sake!) and their coach is a giver upper. Besides, the Steelers were what, 10-3 when we played them? And what were the Bengals, 1-11? It feels great that our season is going well, because the Redskin fans may talk big, but they have no reason to, so shut the fuck up.

By the way, 70 something and 80 something record runs for Mcgahee and McClain? Playoffs, baby.

The Ravens certainly looked like a playoff team last night. I'll be stoked if they go to the tournament, but I really think that this is a team that is poised for postseason success in the next few seasons. There's a lot of very talented youth in Baltimore, but Ozzie Newsome is going to have his hands full this offseason reloading the linebacker corps. I'm pretty sure Bart Scott or Terrell Suggs (god forbid they both go elsewhere) won't be back next year, and despite the fountain of youth Ray Lewis must bathe in, he can't play forever.

Think Tavaris Jackson can win his job back in earnest today, WR?

WhiteRat · #7

Yeah, I think he can and will. He's going to have his work cut out for him today with Jon Abraham and Co. up in his face, but I really believe that this kid has matured and is ready to play consistently at a high level.

How Adrian Peterson fumbles the ball 3 times today is beyond me. The Vikings GAVE that game to the Falcons today. 5 fumbles is inexcusable. Jackson played well and kept the Vikings in the game with his huge runs, but AP seriously needs to get his shit together. He's fumbled the ball 6 times I believe in the last 3 games.

pac-man · #9

Yeah, I noticed that. The highlights they played on Fox didn't show any of AP's fumbles, though.

Credit has to be given to the Falcons players and coaches because I don't think anybody expected them to even make a blip on the radar screen this season.

WhiteRat · #10

I'll give them credit for the season but not for this game. We laid such a colossal egg today and that game was given to the Falcons on a golden platter.

I guess this is one of those rare times when you'll be rooting for the Packers, eh?

WhiteRat · #12

Ha, you got it.

62 yards rushing. 16 rushes and 46 passes. Reid still doesn't learn from experience.

Eagles don't deserve the playoffs.

pac-man · #15

Not with a shoddy performance like that. I like their chances, though. They can beat Dallas.

Yeah, the Eagles seem to have a defense that does well against QB's who make mistakes, so Choko best watch what he throws.

If only his left arm would have been a little lower it would have made a perfect space ghost pose.

Coin toss hits Urlacher in the head. These refs are just fucking with us.

WhiteRat · #21

The Vikings have officially boarded the bus and it's slowly backing away from the playoffs.

El Blanco · #22

Actually, I think a ref kicking a player in the balls would be a much more appropriate picture.

Pentegarn · #23

Dammit Lions! Now is not the time to have pride in yourselves, just hurry up and lose this game to the Packers and run the freaking table in reverse!
