2010 Week 17

[white lightning]

Rob Gronkowski is over 100 yards receiving. What a stud. The Patriots are like a machine and they just have to make it to the Super Bowl to avenge their loss from their 16-0 year.

Yes, congrats to Rob on the 100 yard effort.

Rob Ninkovich with 2 sacks on the day.

Also, congrats to the Law Firm on going over 1,000 on the year.

It is really great watching the Pats 2nd team run up the score against the all black and poly defense of the Dolphins. How pathetic, they need some real athletes on D if you know what I mean.

 

[Riddlewire]

I'm sick of hearing how talented Josh Cribbs is.
He helped them win one game this year. He has been completely irrelevant the entire rest of the season.

Mangini is done. And Bell will most likely be the starting TB next season, splitting carries 70/30 with Hillis (or with a draft pick).

 

[Thrashen]

Edelman's stat line against the Dolphins"¦

3 catches for 72 yards (inches away from scoring), 1 carry for 13 yards (proved that he could easily be an NFL scat-back) and a dazzling 94 yard punt return for a TD.

Deion Branch has had a decent year since taking over for Randy "Has-Been"Â￾ Moss"¦but I can only imagine what Edelman could have accomplished in Branch's role.

Cribbs was one of my few black fantasy players and you are absolutely correct, RW, he didn't do much at all.

As for Peyton Hillis, a new coach will most likely reduce his role, especially since he didn't get a TD the last 5 weeks of the season. Never mind the fact that it wasn't all his fault. Those kind of stats will always be used against White players like him.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Alright! Superman Chad Hall has 2 catches and a TD plus 1 run so far and a couple of returns! I hope Kolb continues to use Chad.

 

[white lightning]

I'm worried about Hillis and his role next year too. Let's hope for the best. They need to get some weapons around him and improve their offensive line as well.
Let's root on the Packers, Colts, Rams and the Broncos. Come on Tebow.

 

[Westside]

I am not too concerned with Hillis role next year. Toward the end of the season, opposing teams knew that Peyton was the ONLY go to player on the team. They figured he would get at least 80 percent of the plays and waited for him. They stacked the box or cover him on short passes and just waited. Any player who would be subjected to that would get injured at some point.

Browns have to get some receivers, a scat back and cut Delhomme and Wallace. Tell McCoy that he is for the moment the QB of the future and pick up a good back up(s). Yes, its disappointing how they finished out the season but the game is brutal and men suffer injuries, Hillis is no exception.

 

[Westside]

Well its official The Vikings signed Frazier to be the permanent head coach for next year. Huh! wasn't he second in command to Chilly? The NFL with its preferred treatment of Negros at all levels is astounding. I hope they lose every game next year. Toby Gerhart, you reading this? Just ship next week.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Here's one story about Frazier. This will probably be a bad thing for Toby, but we'll see what happens.

[celticdb15]

Packers offense is abysmal.. Their lack of runnig game pisses me off and I have seen way too many drop passes lately from Jennings Jones and Driver!!!!

 

[Don Wassall]

Driver used to be one of the fairly rare black receivers with good hands, but no more. The last three years he's had hands of stone.He's clearly finished as a starter.

The bright side is that along with his advancing age, it may work to Jordy Nelson's advantage next season. If not, Jordy needs to become a free agent and sign with another team.

 

[Don Wassall]

Alex Smith is throwing pinpoint accurate passes again today. He's had a starcrossed pro career to put it mildly, but he's still capable of being one of the better starting QBs in the league.

 

[whiteathlete33]

How about Justin Smith with 6 tackles, 2 sacks, and a forced fumble so far today!!

 

[Don Wassall]

Justin Smith finally made the Pro Bowl last year, and again this season. He should have been a perennial pick, as no DE has been more consistently excellent. He's also an Iron Man who never misses any games.

 

[whiteathlete33]

Smith has never been a sack monster but his tackle numbers are very impressive year after year. Some bad news, Tebow just threw his second pick of the day! Damn!

 

[Don Wassall]

Greg Gumbel just said, "I don't think you'll ever see a Jeff Fisher team roll over."

Uh, Greg, how about last year's 0-6 start -- including a 59-0 loss to New England that defines the term "roll over," until AHDIW replaced Kerry Collins as the starter. There's never been a more blatant example of a team rolling over. They've been almost as bad this year. Will be interesting to see if owner Bud Adams chooses Fisher or AHDIW during the offseason.

It's pretty amazing also the respect Fisher has. He's never won a Super Bowl and the Titans rarely even make the playoffs any more. But he's started black QBs most of his 17 years as head coach, so if that doesn't earn an NFL head coach "respect" what will?

 

[Westside]

Wait a minute, an affoolet QB can throw 3 picks a game, and DWFs yawn, 'we'll get them next series'. Oh, I forgot, Tebow is White and is held to a much higher standard. Such is the burden of White Men.

 

[Don Wassall]

Matt Schaub just became the 2nd QB to throw for 9,000 yards over a two season span.

 

[whiteathlete33]

With Andre Johnson out, Schaub seems to be getting Walter more involved in the offense. Walter has 3 catches so far for 54 yards. Starting in place of Johnson is the afflete that all the DWF's want to start in place of Walter, Jacoby Jones.

 

[Don Wassall]

Schaub just hit Daniels for a TD. Owen will be in full beast mode next season.

 

[Highlander]

Well its official The Vikings signed Frazier to be the permanent head coach for next year. Huh! wasn't he second in command to Chilly? The NFL with its preferred treatment of Negros at all levels is astounding. I hope they lose every game next year. Toby Gerhart, you reading this? Just ship next week.

Who would take him? Lovie Smith? Norv Turner? Marvin Lewis? Rex Ryan? Shanahan? maybe...Caldwell? maybe.

After their game against the Giants, Frazier praised Gerhart and said he wished he could've kept giving him the ball, but they were playing catch-up, so they couldn't. I'd take Frazier over "Chilly" as far as how it affects Gerhart's opportunities. Unfortunately, that's where we are at now. The only other possibility would be if Harbaugh takes over at San Fran and trades for him.

 

[Don Wassall]

All it takes is an Adrian Peterson injury for Gerhart to be the starter. He has no leverage as a rookie to demand anything. Patience, Westside, patience.

 

[Kaptain]

Ridiculous that the Packers can't line-up Kuhn at the tail-back spot on 1st and goal, 2nd and goal, or third. The retarded 1st down carry was with two non-blocking RBs on each side of Kuhn. A formation I haven't seen in the NFL this year or maybe ever. The only purpose it seems to serve is to keep Kuhn in the Fullback spot even when the whole stadium knows he's getting the ball.

 

[Kaptain]

Touchdown! Tebow to Eric Decker!
