NFL Week 9 Thread

HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Moss isn't playing, so the Colts should kill the Vikes in the Monday Nighter. After two consecutive losses, they'll be out for blood.

With a bye in week 10 and a gimme game in week 11 vs. Oakland, San Diego could go a long way in getting into the playoffs with a victory at home vs. New Orleans.

Go Chargers!!

If anybody hears, let me know if S. Davis is playing. I'm having a little RB crisis in my Fantasy Football league (A. Green with the bye and M. Moore out for the Vikings... McCalister is my other starting back).

I hope that my Panthers will able to beat the Raiders, but during the curse of the season I've learned to lower my expectations.

Damn injuries! :mad:

Go Panthers!

Sadly, I think you are right.

Vikes offense misses Moss badly. They are one of the top-2 in the league with him, middle-of-the-road without him.

Moore isn't as much of a loss as both Smith and Bennett are back (Smith from suspection; Bennett to full health). For the Vikes to have a chance, they are going to have to manage the game and the clock. Use their big offensive line to pound the Colts small defense. Let Bennett and Smith move the ball methodically down field. In short, keep it from becoming a shoot-out. I don't think it is an impossible game to win, just a very tough one. Vikes get a good ground game going and nab some INTs, they can pull it off.

Jags have a bye, and I hope Leftwich can get better.

Dallas needs to get to .500 today. Beat the Bengals!

I wonder if the Chiefs will be able to score over 40 points again this week. They face the Bucs.

the vikings do this every season

they start out on fire, and then fade away when teams start prearing for the play-offs on them. Last year it was week 7.. This year it was week 7.

I know the moss injury is a big factor in this, but this isnt anything new. They need to learn to start a season and Finish a season.

Will Corey Dillon play?My RB's are screwed.Chris Brown is on a bye,and Fargas is starting now.I have Kevin Faulk though...

With a bye in week 10 and a gimme game in week 11 vs. Oakland, San Diego could go a long way in getting into the playoffs with a victory at home vs. New Orleans.

Go Chargers!!
Not so fast! The Saints play to the level of their competition...which in this case might be a good thing for New Orleans.

They need a defense that can match their talent on the offensive side of scrimmage.

I'd be shocked if Manning didn't just shread the Vikes defense for some serious yardage. Although if Moss was playing, both teams would be about even.

I predict that the Lions will struggle and lose against a Washingtion team they should beat. Washington has one of the better defenses and Detroit's running game is still suspect.

I don't like the Pats chances today, looks like 2 in row :(

Just reading that Staley has been downgraded to doubtful and even if he plays probably won't have much affect on the game. I think the Eagles remain undefeated...

If anybody hears, let me know if S. Davis is playing. I'm having a little RB crisis in my Fantasy Football league (A. Green with the bye and M. Moore out for the Vikings... McCalister is my other starting back).

Davis is inactice

As mucj as i dislike the Eagles i'm hopin they can beat the Steelers.

:eek: Steelers up 14-0 already. wow.

Staley's in street clothes, and Bettis has really stepped up so far for the Steelers. Big Ben has been awfully impressive yet again, with two really good throws so far.

Draft Day can't arrive fast enough for me.

Panthers are already down 10-0. :banghead:

You know your defense sucks when the Bucs have no problem with you.

Also, Eddie Kennison caught a ball from Green and broke through the TB defense but was hit 10 yards from the endzone by Dwight Smith fumbled the ball into the endzone, was picked up by Brian Kelly and returned 30 yards.

Steelers vs. Eagles

is more like

Men vs. Boys

Philly's Run D is being dominated by the Steelers backup RB's. I really dont see this team going anywhere unless this run D improves greatly.

It's not the RB's it's the O-line.

Also the Eagles have been weak against the run for a few years now, it has only really cost them in the NFC Championship game against St. Louis 3 years ago.

Touchdown!

21-0 Steelers! :yo:

Edit: I agree with JFF. I think the Eagles have a problem against the run, but it's being amplified by the Steelers O-Line today.

IF the Steelers beat the Patriots for a 2nd time later this year in the postseason...I'd have to bet money on the Steelers to win the Superbowl

the kickoff sails out of bounds...

only give up 3 points

from that shot that Fox had...it sure looked like McNabb was shedding a tear...

man Terrell Owens is a POS

The problem here for the Eagles IMO all stems from the defense. Not only can't they stop the run, but they just can't make a big stop. They've had some big sacks on Big Ben, but then the Steelers are able to get the first downs. The Steelers have possessed the ball for the majority of the game, which means the defense is fresh for the Eagles offense. And when the Steelers defense is fresh, they are much better. Over the past two years when the Steelers were passing, even passing well, the offense didn't have much time of possession, and the defense got beat. Now that the Steelers are getting their defense more rest, the defense is returning to being pretty dominant.

And as I'm talking, Dawkins picks Roethlisberger off. I don't really know what that throw was about, but we'll see of the Steelers D can hold Philly with about 3 and a half minutes in the half.

3 and out, nice tackle by Farrior.

Is it safe to say the Steelers are the best team in the NFL now?

Why can't Dallas just play Henson? Testaverde had a fumble and an interception today. :shakehead Testaverde is finished. He has screwed up so many times this season.

They've got my vote.

Put the ball away Plaxico!!!!

:lol:

That's what I was just going to comment on. TO do you ever shut-up?

This is why I couldn't vote for him on the WR poll. Not only does he cost his team with his stupid penalties, but he also is such a derisive figure on the sidelines when the team needs to pull together.

Egad! Burress just had a sure TD and dropped the ball somehow. :dunno:

Made the catch and tried to carry it with one hand and fumbled it out of bounds around the 20 of the Eagles.

I don't want to get too excited, but with a win today I guess the Steelers will be on top of the NFL.

Just as it looked like Philly was going to get momentum, after Burress dropping a pass, holding the Steelers to a FG attempt, and Reed missing it, Farrior gets an interception and the Steelers are pressing again.

Sheesh. I thought McNabb might struggle a little, and now I'm really glad I started Brees instead of him.

I love the Steelers... this team have all!

Big Ben rulz and he have the best receiver corps, so Bettis ran for over 100 yards also Staley didn't played. That's awesome!

Go Bucs Go!
Go Steelers Go!

24-3 Steelers!

:yo:

Leave it to KC to make the Bucs look like they are an offensive powerhouse :joker:

Philly's Run D is being dominated by the Steelers backup RB's. I really dont see this team going anywhere unless this run D improves greatly.
Note to Herby : Not only is the OL one of the best (if not the best) in the NFL, but that backup RB is Jerome Bettis, HOF bound who leads the NFL in TD and still has something left in the tank, as he's showed today (150 yards so far).

Is it safe to say the Steelers are the best team in the NFL now?
and I was still expecting you guys to say they havent beaten anybody good yet

Oh man, they put in Fast Willie Parker...you know its over when he gets a carry

wow! Pittsburgh looks good. they have alot of weapons, a great young QB and a real good coach. they dominated the Eagles and really took it to the Pats last week. very impressive.

Vinny Throwsalotofinterceptionsverde should be cut.

now they are set up to lose to the brownies or the bungles in the next few weeks, they are due to slip up

Tim Brown's record for catching a ball in 179 straight games ends today.

:handclap: That *******.

Leave it to KC to make the Bucs look like they are an offensive powerhouse :joker:

Hell Yeah !

The Refs sucked big time today, and the rookie Clayton keeps going :bow:

now they are set up to lose to the brownies or the bungles in the next few weeks, they are due to slip up

Wouldn't suprise me.

Play the two best teams in the NFL at home, destroy both of them, then travel to mediocre Cleveland and lose.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/boxscore?gid=20041107024

1st-10, SD47 D. Brees passed to D. Brees to the left for 31 yard gain


??? Anyone watching this? Misprint by Yahoo??? :dunno:

T.O. stands for Totally Overrated.

Do you think that Clayton be a Franchise player for Tampa?

Wouldn't suprise me.

I've gotta think theyre gonna lose one that they shouldnt in the next two weeks

Pats D ain't looking too hot today either

1st-10, SD47 D. Brees passed to D. Brees to the left for 31 yard gain


??? Anyone watching this? Misprint by Yahoo??? :dunno:

didn't see the play in question, however in a college game yesterday, qb pass was blocked by a d-lineman, swatted the ball off the quartebacks foot and into his hands for a 10 or so yard pass to himself

troy brown, who plays WR, is playing defense for the pats...

now they are set up to lose to the brownies or the bungles in the next few weeks, they are due to slip up

my guess is we lose to the bungles.

troy brown, who plays WR, is playing defense for the pats...

thats better than what the Eagles had today, 150 yds for the old fat man Bettis :lol

Do you think that Clayton be a Franchise player for Tampa?

I dont think he will be the franchise player for the Bucs, but he'll be a top player on the team for years down the road.

I'm glad the 49ers are playing well against the Seahawks today. Although they should be after getting embarassed in week 3 34-0. Maybe I like to take chances too much, but I disagree with Ericksson kicking a FG with 7 seconds left instead of taking one last shot at a TD on 3rd and goal. I think an upset can happen if they can hold down Seattle's defense.

he is franchise receiver for sure, he looks a lot like Isaac Bruce, maybe a bit faster

You think you could do better against the Bus?

Looks like New England will bounce back this week. They are up 33-14 late in the third quarter at St. Louis.

Not over yet, though, there's plenty of time but New Englad has looked good.

Warner is having one horrible game against the Bears. Lucky for him it's only 20-14 for the Bears.

Drew Brees + Antonio Gates = :handclap:

8 TD's for Gates so far this year, that's second among all receivers (T.O. has 9, Moss also has 8) and he's a TE. Oh yeah and coming into today 13th in receiving yardage so it's not like they only use him in goal line situations. Now if only I had grabbed him for my fantasy team.

So does Gates deserve to be mentioned yet among guys like Gonzo? What about Heap and Shockey? McMicheal? Winslow? Where does he rank among TEs in the league right now? My own opinion in biased because Im a Charger fan, but I would put him top-5 for sure right now, top-3 if he continues his strong play for the rest of the year, maybe even #2 behind Gonzalez.

Winslow for one does not deserve mention among the top TEs until he proves something on the field. Gates is emerging as a top 5 TE in the league in only his 2nd year and might become even better than Gonzalez in his prime if he continues to have strong years like this one.

Another young TE that is getting better by the day is 22 year old Jason Witten. Over 95 yards today, yet no touchdowns because Testaverde thought that his teamates were in the orange and black jerseys.

well look at that, Hol,es actually did get hurt and it clearly cost the chiefs the game. Well, they completly shut down the bucs running game minus that one play, so at least something was positive.

Oh I agree, I just listed him because I know some dont feel that way.

You think you could do better against the Bus?
yes, I would come prepared with a Giant Eagle Bus Helmet Cake and a Bus Bucket of wings and he would just plop his ass down and we'd have a nice picnic and talk about the glory days

Gutsy win by the Pats today, I really thought that St. Louis would exploit NE's depleated secondary but they played good today. Cudos to Troy Brown for stepping into the defense and playing well. Jets lose :joker: putting the Pats back on top all alone with Buffalo at home next week.

Troy Brown, 4 Yd pass from Adam Vinatieri

Was this a fake field goal :dunno:

it was a steal from the cowboys 2 years ago at the draft. I thought he was going to go in the 1st round, and I think they got him in the 3rd or 4th round

Pats are going down next week ;)

yes, I would come prepared with a Giant Eagle Bus Helmet Cake and a Bus Bucket of wings and he would just plop his ass down and we'd have a nice picnic and talk about the glory days

some bits from my conversation with a friend today:
- jerome bettis is one scary mofo, a guy that big should not be allowed to run that well
- i can't imagine trying to tackle that guy, i think i'd use a stick, throw that sucker between his legs. he'd have no chance

Alexander with 355 yards and 4 TD's in his last 2 games. 3rd best RB in the league?

Woo! What a win in St. Louis! :handclap:

the Ravens better start thinking of benching Boller, he really doesn't what to do on the field

It's good to be a Steeler fan. :gman: :gman: :gman:

Go Browns. :dunno:

Pats are going down next week ;)

I'm definately looking forward to that game :D

Alexander with 355 yards and 4 TD's in his last 2 games. 3rd best RB in the league?

He destroyed the 49ers today. :cry: :mad:

nice 8 yard punt by the brownies put the ravens in great position for a quick score by Jamal Lewis

It's good to be a Steeler fan. :gman: :gman: :gman:

Go Browns. :dunno:

Thank God we have the Steelers, eh?

With the Penguins season on hold we don't know when (if?) they'll come back, the Pirates have been stuck in reverse for over a decade, and no one could give a rat's ass about basketball around here...all we have is football.

GO STEELERS!

nice 8 yard punt by the brownies put the ravens in great position for a quick score by Jamal Lewis

wow...we can definitely all get jobs, if he only kicked it 8 friggin' yards

Ah ok. The key to the Ravens offense actually scoring a touchdown is to start inside the 10 yard line.

Wow...Ray Lewis gets away with some nice pass interference in the endzone, leading to an INT returned for a TD by Ed Reed.

Ed Reed with a NFL record 106 yard INT return for a TD to seal the game for the Ravens.

people get into Pitt hoops a good bit, but still its nice to have a good team in town again

no, he barely touched Shea, and the pass was deflected at the line of scrimmage so he could have tackled him

no, he barely touched Shea, and the pass was deflected at the line of scrimmage so he could have tackled him

Not sure what you saw, but Lewis clearly was grabbing Shea's back with his right hand, a call that I swear I have never seen missed. And I never saw the ball deflected.

Note to Herby : Not only is the OL one of the best (if not the best) in the NFL, but that backup RB is Jerome Bettis, HOF bound who leads the NFL in TD and still has something left in the tank, as he's showed today (150 yards so far).

Steelers line is good, but not the best IMO.

Chiefs are, at worst, top-2.

Baltimore is, at worst, top-2.

Packers come in with a phenominal group of 6-7 (starters and top BUs).

Then you have Denver, Seattle, Philly and New England who are of the same caliber as the Steelers.

Bettis may be headed for the HOF, but he is a marginal back today. He may be the slowest back in the NFL. His rushing yardage had as much to do with who he was facing as it did his ability. Bettis would be hard pressed to start anywhere in the NFL. For at least half the team, he would have a tough time being the top back-up.

one coach once commented that one of the main differences between a mediocre rb and a good rb is that the good one will get you that extra yard or two every play. Bettis continued to do tha, not to mention still move his legs pretty good to dodge. he's not what he used to be, but he's still got some of it. i think it's a little much to say he wouldnt be able to start anywhere.

Just to answer my own question, I found this in Peter King's Monday Morning QB this morning:

"I think -- and I only want to tantalize you, not give it all away -- that one of the biggest surprises of SI's Midseason All-Pro Team has to do with the choice of the 16 NFL scouts/pro personnel directors/GMs at tight end. And let's just say the possible Hall of Famer from the AFC West will be disappointed at the balloting, and the former Mid-American Conference basketball player from the AFC West will be thrilled. It's an interesting team. Check it out this week in the magazine."

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/writers/peter_king/11/08/king.mmqb/index.html

No names, but it seems obvious he's referring to Antonio Gates making the team over Tony Gonzalez. If anyone actually gets the magazine Id be interesting in reading what they have to say about all the players, not just the TE position.

And yes, I realize that Gonzalez is a potential HOF'er and Gates has only had one half of a great season so far. He'll need to keep it up for a while in order to be considered on par with Gonzo. So dont go jumping all over me.


Oh yeah and some interesting stuff about Brees in there as well. King believes the Chargers will slap Brees with the franchise tag in the off-season which would prevent him from becoming a free agent and force someone to trade for him, likely for a high 2nd or possibly 1st round pick. That would give the Chargers 3 1sts next draft (they also have the Giant's). He also doesnt dismiss the possibility that the Chargers might keep Brees. What a great time to be a SuperChargers fan.

Bettis played great because it's likely his only start of the year. The Steelers needed everything he had in the well for one game, and he gave it to them. He's not an everyday starter in this league anymore, but his situation in Pittsburgh is perfect for him. Bettis is the Steeler's version of Moe Williams now, which isn't a bad thing.

Anybody see Aaron Brooks' backwards pass to his offensive lineman? Lost him 20-25 yards.

Lucky for him he plays for an idiot.

Yeah I saw that on the highlights. One of the funniest plays I've seen this year (in the sense that it makes you shake your head wondering "what in the world was he thinking?"), right up there with the Jake Plummer left handed interception.

Wow...Ray Lewis gets away with some nice pass interference in the endzone, leading to an INT returned for a TD by Ed Reed.

While I don't think he interfered on that particular play, Lewis does get away with a lot of crap. I'm just thankful we wasn't miked-up for the 500th straight telecast...

Is it safe to say the Steelers are the best team in the NFL now?

No, just really good at home.

Where would he start then?

while i dont think anyone can say Bettis is what he used to be, i think if really needed to be a starter he could be. granted he would be pretty worn down by the end, and may not have that great a year (probably more likely than not), but he could do it.

If Bettis started the whole year, you'd be seeing a 2003 Eddie George-like situation, and even then it's no safe bet that Bettis would stay healthy the whole year. He's not the player he was, and he's not an every day starter. He's a situational short yardage/red zone back, and he's doing an extraordinary job of it.

Chad Pennington out 2-4 weeks. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1918603

:D

:lol That was hillarious. Easily one of the top bloopers of the year. I can understand him trying to avoid taking a sack, but in that situation you just gotta take a sack.

Thats a pretty bold statement by King. Steelers have been the best team of the first half, but thats no reason to include them as one of the best teams of the last 20 years yet. Two games doesnt make a season, even as impressive theyve looked the last two weeks beating two of the best teams in the league.

Evilo:

KC, Seattle, Chicago, and Baltimore (with Ogden) all have better O-lines than P-Burgh.
That's IMO debatable.
Pittsburgh has a very tight unit. It's not only about the individuals, but as a unit, they're downright fantastic.
Keep in mind that the Steelers don't mix up a lot. They run A LOT. In the Eagles game, it was obvious they'd run all day, no matter what. And the defensive line STILL couldn't stop them.
I believe only KC and Baltimore can rival the Steelers' O line as a unit.

This sums up week 9 pretty nicely...

'Twas Sunday the 7th & all throughout Philly,
The fans were watching their Eagles on TV look silly;
The Eagle fans watched and thought "oh how absurd",
As they watched Hines Ward flap his arms like a bird;
But it was only 7-0 and there was no reason to worry,
With Donovan and T.O., this game would be tied in a hurry;
Big Ben throws to Burress, more runs by the Bus,
The Birds Fans were wondering what's happened to us;
This kids just a rookie, how can this happen,
Ward in the endzone again- his arms are flapping;
The Steelers took over and moved it with ease,
Bettis was running through the D like it was swiss cheese;
We are 7-0 and how could this be?
But the Eagles were beaten 27 to 3;
We knew this was a good team to have to confront,
But holy hell, the Steelers didn't even punt!
