Sorry Ed, but it appears the team I cheer for the most (next to the Redskins.. when they aren’t playing the Ravens) pretty much crushed the Eagles, 36-7

To all Raven’s fans… COMMENCE VICTORY DANCE AND CELEBRATIONS!!!!

I’m not sure what was nicer… Ed putting up the widget for the Jets for me… the Jets absolutely beating the stuffing out of the Titans… or seeing everyone in this thread who predicted the Jets weren’t for real and would lose to the Titans eating crow for their pre-Thanksgiving meal.

Subway Superbowl. You heard it here next.

Thanks, Ed.

Any Filthadelphia team win on any day is a bad thing.

I’ll predict that the Seahawks will get it together and beat the Redskins this afternoon. 21-17.

Mallard T. Drake on November 23, 2008 at 2:07 PM

Pretty damn good……except that I got the teams reversed. Redskins over the Hawks, 20-17. Seahawks are now 2-9. This wasn’t the way Holmgren was supposed to go out. :-(

Predicting a steelers’ victory? Oh, that’s hard, playing in a division with 6 free wins, a no-brainer!

Well, the Bungles are terrible, and the Browns are underachieving a bit (not quite a free win), but the Steelers don’t need to make any apologies for their schedule. It’s the toughest schedule of any team in the NFL this year. Based on last year’s records, it’s the toughest schedule any team has been assigned in over 20 years.

McNabb would be a decent backup in this league…

The Titans are a much better team than they showed today. The loss for them actually comes at a good time, and takes some pressure off of them. They play the Lions Thursday, so should be back to their winning ways. After that, they have 10 days off to heal and play Cleveland at home, and the Texans in Houston. They should win all three of them. Then they have to deal with Pittsburgh and Indy. If the Titans win 3 of next 5, they should clinch home team in the playoffs, because I doubt the Jets and the Steelers will win out.

Ugh. December 14th.

Now I will go out on a limb. December 11th, the Steelers will get their clocks cleaned by the Ravens in Baltimore.

31-10.

You heard it here first.

By: nukemhill

nukemhill — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 23:10:42 +0000

Gee, I’ll go out on a limb too. Ed Reed will return an interception for 108 yards and a touchdown.

Wow. That was easy!

nukemhill — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 23:09:23 +0000

Heh. Low-scoring Eagles over the Ravens? That was a joke.

Go Ravens!!!!!!!

McNabb should have been benched before opening kickoff, after they showed him on the sidelines letting a big YAWN.

Bring back Norm Snead.

Look how many posts on this thread already about the Lions. I’m telling you, they’re always more exciting when they’re 0-10.

People start pulling for them to go 0-16. They become special again. Because in the days of NFL parity, it takes a special type of incompetence to go 0-10, now 0-11.

Go Steelers

New England has rolled up over 500 yards of total offense today against the Fish. And Tom Brady’s replacement Matt Cassell now has his second consecutive 400 yard passing game.

The Pats play the Steelers next week.

As I suspected, the Titans aren’t as good as their record indicates. Perhaps the Jets are a better team that I thought earlier & they’re finally coming together behind Favre.

clancy_wiggum on November 23, 2008 at 3:14 PM

Yeah, I’m a Titans fan, but reality is setting in. I don’t think the Jets are all that good either, though. Pittsburgh may well be the team that comes out of the AFC this season.

My team’s starters are Matt Forte, Joseph Addai, Tyler Thigpen, Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Hines Ward, Owen Daniels, Philadelphia Defense, and Matt Bryant. Bench players are Kevin Walter, Dominic Rhodes, Ray Rice, and Shaun Hill.

I should have started Walter over Hines! Forte has been a star for me all year and has an easy schedule. Addai has stunk but is heating up and also has an easy sched. Hopefully they will carry me to victory and a meager cash prize!
