Looks like Chippy is going to the doo doo Browns.

Pretty glad he isn't ending up in Buffalo.

but Lovie Smith might. If he can take a team with Rex Grossman to the Superbowl, I think he can do well with Fitzpatrick

I'm all for Lovie, he is great for the D, we would just need a solid OC.

Well, Vikes are gonna have a tough go tonight, with Webb under center. He just can't throw downfield well. Great runner, but that's about it.

He's making Tebow look like Peyton Manning

True. Very tough to watch. Hard for me to say this but, I wish Ponder was under center instead of Webb

Maybe I should be posting in the "I'm drunk" thread, but that game was hilarious to watch. Webb is just awful, thank you Viqueens for paving the road to SF for us.

Sorry ko, but you should be pretty damn happy with the season your guys had. They were picked to basically be flip flopped with the Lions and had a great year. It's a shame AP didn't get the record, but I can see a lot of 2nd place finishes and possible wildcards in your team's future as long as you guys get a QB. Go Pack Go!!!!

Nice defensive battle going on in Baltimore. Seems like the Colts are able to move the ball well enough, but just can't sniff inside the 20 yd line.

Probably because they don't want to get stabbed. Luck is just looking young, like Dalton yesterday. I had a feeling it would come down to grit, and the Ravens D forces you to dig deep, and these rooks don't always pull through.

I got the Sqwuaks for the next game, which I am expecting/hoping to be a high scoring game.

Bills hire Cuse's Doug Marrone as the new Head Coach.

Wouldn't have been in my top 5 choices, but I'm not totally against it, really wanted them to go with a defensive minded coach, as that needs the most work. Hopefully we get a solid DC, now.

At least Marrone had a good track record as the Saints OC. Now we just need a real starting QB, not a decent backup, to lead Marrone's offense.

Mind you I know next to nothing about college football players and coaches but finishing 7-6 in college (4-5 in their conference, 25-25 as a coach of Syracuse) doesn't scream great coach to me.

in fairness, 7-6 at Syracuse is like 9-4 or 10-3 at other schools. theyre not known much for football

They also play in a cupcake football conference. The hire baffles me, but I guess the folks in Buffalo are used to crazy decisions at this point.

Holy Shit!!!

RG3's knee just went out and it looks pretty bad. The look on the crowd's face says it all.

Sad

I lost my parlay because RG3 was playing on 1 leg. Seattle will get spanked by Atlanta next week

Not sad at all in my opinion. Stupid decision to keep him in as long as they did. He could barely put weight on it in the 1st half.

I was thin king more sad for the player, not the team. They've been making bad decisions all year, him on the other hand just wanted to be out there helping his team

If they play like they did today, yes. If not.. the Seahawks have been hot lately. I had them and Denver in the Super Bowl when the playoffs started

Wow. Did not see that coming. I bet you're pumped about that

I would like nothing more than to see Seattle and the Packers in the NFC championship game. Revenge would be sweet.

I am. If you're not an Oregon fan then you hate the guy and everything he's about but since he's the coach of my favorite team I love the guy andhes always stay focused approach. With that being said, we would have been fine. We have a ton of talent that will pull us through these impending sanctions. I respect him for staying knowing that sanctions are forthcoming. Hes not taking the Pete Carrol approach of bolting before he gets punished. Had Chip took off I would have laid into him for not practicing what he preached.
