actually, in most of my serious bowl pools for money with friends. Picking the favorites has netted more wins than losses..its those plus or minus 2.5s that are the sticky ones LOLQuote:

Will the four letter network and it's cronies talk about something besides Tebow now? Probably not. Hell, they talked to a reporter in Denver about the game and she actually had the audacity to say that Tebow looked good against New England!!! Do these people seriously even WATCH football?
Tebow - 11/22 194 yards 4 sacks 1 fumble
Yup. He looked great against a team that's been, AVERAGING 296.7 ypg through the air. Yup, fuckin' GREAT I tell ya. :fp:
Yes mors, we get it already, you hate the guy no matter what.
No, I hate what he represents, because the media LOVES talking about the guy. The dude CAN'T play QB. Sell out to stop the run and watch him get annihilated. Don't play pussy cover 2 defense and watch him flounder.Quote:

I mean, he just played against the worst pass defense in the NFL when it comes to yards per game allowed yet put up the least amount of yards passing that they've allowed all season.
Don't get me wrong though. He's a hell of an option QB it just doesn't work in the NFL. It's too easy to stop when the guy can barely complete passes 15 yards down the field with any consistency. Just look at what happened with the Wildcat and the Dolphins and how long that lasted. One good season out of it, in which they were COMPLETELY exposed to the failings of it toward the end of the season and that's the last we've seen of it.
There's a damn good reason why the college offenses that require the QB to run with the ball more haven't made it to the NFL yet. They just won't work consistently because they require PERFECT execution by the offense without perfect execution by the defense.
Well, for as much time as you complain about ESPN talking about Tebow, you seem to spend just as much time talking about him as well. Whether it's making him out to be the savior of football as we know it, or bitching about the guy, both you and ESPN seem to be talking about nothing but Tebow these days.

I thought it was funny yesterday that a commentator said part of the reason he is inaccurate at times is because he doesn't want to throw an interception. That was after he missed an Out route by 10 yards.
Definitely..Looking forward to it. Not sure if Ben will play, its a huge game but the bigger picture is him being healthy for the playoffs.Quote:

4th time in NFL history two 10 win teams with a .750+ win % meet on MNF. All of the other three matchups involved and were won by the 49ers.
Yeah its no doubt in my mind he is able to play, just wasn't sure if the coaches would hold him in terms of looking down the road. It is a big opportunity though to take over 1st place in the AFC.Quote:

But at the cost of possibly not having Roethlisberger for the playoffs? I mean, I know he's going to play (there's little doubt that he's not), but it's an awfully big risk just to get homefield advantage when it's pretty likely that sitting him would get you at least two wins anyway against the remaining competition.Quote:
