i'm pretty stoked about upcoming games. Toby needs to exorcise some media demons with a strong game (Von Miller's out, which will be helpful, this guy is one of the few high black picks who plays up to his "potential").

Peyton has a tough task ahead of him, Ravens. but who knows, he's already surprised us few times last year with great games vs strong run defenses

on the flip side, Danny seems to be injured and is questionable with some abdomen problems, although Pats often list half their squad as questionable. i hope to see more of a white slash playing corner (Edelman).


night games are **** from caste point of view, however.

My FF line-up this week:

Tim Tebow
Toby Gerhart
Peyton Hillis
Jordy Nelson
Wes Welker
Jason Witten
Stephen Gostkowski
Houston Defense

A rare chance to field an all white team that is competitive. :biggrin:

Wow, Caste speak already.
Toby runs for 9 yards, and they start with the "that's the longest run your going to get from him,it's not exactly explosive."

Horrible play call by Fox, that is a QB sneak situation if I have ever seen one.

It's absolutely ridiculous that Gerhart continues to lose carries to Harvin. What kind of wisdom is it to put your best receiver, who is small and has concussion problems, in at tailback?

Sounds like there are a lot of Tebow fans in Minnesota. A large portion of the crowd seems to be cheering for Denver.

Genius coaching by Frazier "lets see, Gerhart has been having success running up the middle, and is good in the redzone on power plays, lets throw it to him twice in the redzone and then call another pass play"

I must have been watching different games, but apparently Peterson goes for at least 40 yards every time he touches the ball.

The absolutely horrible Eddie Royal screws up a first down by trying to do a classic Jiggabo chuck and jive. Idiot!

Frazier probably sees Gerhart as as hybrid runningback/fullback type just like some of the DWF's do. It's pathetic because I know he can put up good numbers like AP if used correctly.

For all of Christian Ponders talent he sure screws up a lot. Maybe the coach should call some running plays. Idiot!

Yeah, he has only had one stretch play since Peterson went down, its been all up the gut, harder to break off big runs that way.


Looks like maybe its the players and scheme elevating Von Miller because his replacement is playing just as good, if not better.

That was the knock against him at FSU. I think he needs more time to learn the NFL game. Great talent, but needs some time. I hope his confidence remains intact.

John Fox is sabotaging his team.
They run a 1986 pro-offense consisting of I-formation and singleback on first and second down, getting minimal yardage. Then they run that ONE zone read play, without any modifications to it to keep the defense guessing. When they fail repeatedly with this scheme, it allows Fox to say that he's using a "college spread offense" for Tebow but it's just not working. The media certainly plays their part, with Thom Brennaman constantly reminding the viewer how little time of possession Denver has in the game.

Leslie Frazier, likewise, is sabotaging his team.
But, with him, it's just stupidity. Due to his inherent racism, he thinks of Gerhart as nothing more than a dive back. The playbook for Ponder is all short-yardage and horizontal. Very quickly the defense has learned to just bring everybody on every play because there's no chance of them getting burned deep.

Matt Forte left the game against KC and a return has been ruled-out.

Pittsburgh capitalized on Brandon Tate's fumble and they are up by 21 points now over Cinci.

Surprised Rivera let Newton pass in the red zone. He usually plays it safe and only allows read options.

He's only 572 yards away from Manning's rookie passing record.

And we should care why? I assume you've been here before under another name.
