The Official 2012 NFL Thread v. All aboard the Kaepernick bandwagon!

[Care]

Betting against Jim Harbaugh is a losing bet. He has turned franchises from rags to riches everywhere he has coached. SD state, Stanford and now SF have all had massive turnarounds under his leadership.

The falcons are a good football team, playoff bound for sure. They would seriously benefit from a top seed in the NFC since they play much better at home, and theyre on their way to doing that at the moment.

i like how nobody is talking about the falcons.

QFT.

Fucking falcons.

i would just like to see how jimmy harbs handles a little diversity

like losing some key players due to injury

 

[ArCi]

The Vikings need some love. They're legit.

^ word, ponder is way better than expected peterson is a king, jared allen is a future hall of famer and coach leslie frasier gets full potential and effort from his players

i can't wait till vikings come to st louis at the end of the year i get a feeling there will be serious playoff ramnificantions with that game, thank god it's in st.louis, the edward jone's dome has treated the rams very very good this year, just wait till they start actually selling out, i cant fuckin wait, back when they were good that fan base was as rabid as anyone's

rams last game of the year is at seattle, i hope to god it doesn't come down to them needing a win to make playoffs(it very well could be)

we all know what happened two years ago....

also, to the dude who made the post about all the qbs that went to high school in texas...thanks bro, that's cool to know

5 weeks ago I would have laughed at that statement, but now it seems almost likely, the vikings look great and the rams are 3-2, could easily have been 4-1 if they hadn't blown it against the lions.

where the hell is axl? i want to make fun of him.

 

[The Liberal Media]

Well that was a kick in the teeth

ATL so overated its not funny, our piss poor team went into their dome and had more yardage, first downs ,more heart. more everything

Most important more penalties, including one of the worst zone infractions you will ever see called on Lammar Houston, at least we know the real refs are back cos Oakland got flagged 12 times today and only 3 times in the last week of the scrub refs

Wins fron now on
Jags, Chiefs x2, Bucs, Browns, Broncos, Panthers, Chargers = 9-7

AFC West champs easy !!

^ i was at a falcons vs. raiders game in 2008 when the raiders scored 0 points and had 77 total yards of offense. luckily i was blind drunk by half time so it didn't seem to matter so much.

go raiders!

alasdair

I was at the Raiders - Falcons game in 1994 at the Coliseum , I saw more tackles by security in the stands than the Raiders D made all season

Was great to drink and hurl abuse at Jeff George though. Well worth the price of admission.

 

[The Liberal Media]

As much as i hate the east coast, I love to see the Giants pounding it down Harbaughs massive mouth and even bigger ego in his own yard.

3-23

# Harbaugh scowl

Priceless

Fucking disaster today. Pleased for the win but Ravens got lucky. Only for the Cowboys always finding a way to fuck themselves, it could've been a bad home loss. It should've been. Not solely Romos fault for once but unbelievably poor clock management by Garrett.

Ravens defense is getting run all over these days and now to make things 20 times worse, Ray tore his triceps and Ladarius Webb has a torn ACL. Both done for the season. Sickening. Ray Lewis had 14 tackles today.

Could be Rays career over right there.

 

[The Liberal Media]

Who is the best coach in the NFL Now?

Coughlin or Billy Jedi?

My vote goes to Coughlin

Can wait to see Houston v GB now
Should be a great game

 

[DrinksWithEvil]

sorry care hahaha

 

[MikeOekiM]

so salty

 

[Care]

damn, that was brutal, well played by the giants

Alex Smith needs to be more consistent. He was coming off of a career day and had his worst game in a long time against a statistically sub par defense. Both the d and o lines had awful days too.

Our defense couldnt stop the run at all for the first time in a while.

Cant overreact to one loss though, if we beat the seahawks this week we will be looking good.

 

[The Liberal Media]

Well I didnt see that coming, very good performance from GB, season back on track

good teams that are well coached find a way to win. say what you want, but we're 6-0. you can't really call the only undefeated team in the NFL "over rated". we had plenty of penalties too. ugly game all around. but for a 1-4 team, you guys played pretty well.

we need this bye week, as we're pretty banged up.

matt bryant has ice water in his veins.

rise up, bitches.

Atlanta is a good solid team, but that whole one and done thing follows them around like a bad smell.
Harbaugh is too good a coach to let yesterday fester. they will be there or there abouts
Coughlin is now the best coach in the NFL( imo based on body of work the last few years) so they will be there.

I think playing either if these guys at home or a darkhorse like Chicago and you might have some trouble.
The teams that are "hot" pre halloween are usually more than not ever in the actual superbowl, real season starts in december.
Congrats on the win though, we really blew it, something like 7 plays we allowed you guys to get off in the last 40 seconds.

Urgh

yea, you're right about teams being hot early in the season that cool off towards the middle/end. we're a prime example of that, i'm pretty fucking scared of the giants.

trust me, i'm a die hard falcons fan, we'll probably blow it in the first round of the playoffs again. but for now, i'll take our ugly 6-0. i have a bad feeling about the philly game after this bye weekend. but we'll see what happens.

and, you did allow those 7 plays for us to get into FG range. BUT....we also executed that drive flawlessly. one thing i do know about this team, is that they have the composure and the balls to come back and win games with their backs against the wall. they are very well coached.
