NFL: Week 11

Denver is killing New Orleans early, 14-0. I'm stoked because every single play has involved my fantasy players. Droughns has 60+ yards rushing and a TD, Lelie has 70 yards recieving and a TD.

The Steelers/Bengals game is what I'm watching. Randel El just had a big punt return and the Steelers are pressing. But the drive before, the Steelers were on the 14 yard line of the Bengals, took a penalty and then they had two straight sacks and made us punt.

Chad Johnson just got his TD, but didn't do anything to warrant the fine he was talking about. :dunno:

7-3 Bengals. Steelers are having trouble finishing off drives.

The Saints defense is really sad.

anyone watching the dallas - baltimore game?

just saw one of the baltimore RB's leg broken...ugh!

edit: OH my god its ugly!

Eh, its only Musa Smith.....you got my hopes up that it was Jamal Lewis

Lions with an early lead over the Vikes, but it is still early. Eddie Drummond is the man though, 3 TD's off of punt/kick returns in 2 weeks.

Whats up with Shaun King playing QB for the Cards? is McCown hurt?

Did he do anything at all?

He's got nerve if he's counting on catching another TD to do this "infamous" celebration that he's been talking about all week.

I think it's safe to say that James won't be back in Indy next year. Colts going with a no-huddle offense and Peyton just keeps firing it from the shotgun.

He did something, but it was just sort of a typical TD celebration. Then he sort of ran down the side of the field looking at the crowd making motions with his hands like he was bringing up the dollar bills. Then he saluted the crowd and that was about it.

:dunno:

That's the Big Ben I'm used to. :amazed:

Nice scramble to find Randel El wide open for a TD, but Oliver Ross was holding so it's coming back. It was a legit call. 3rd and 17 now. Roethlisberger sacked. This is ugly early for a Steeler fan.

Damn, where did the Bungles find this pass rush?

WOO!!!!!!!

Perfect TD for the Steelers for me! Farrior with the interception and the TD, and best of all, he's on my fantasy team! Yeah!

10-7 now.

As a side note, New Orleans can't buy a break. They got all the way down to Denver's one yard line, took a five yard penalty on third down, and then threw an incomplete pass, and had to settle for a FG. It was a long drive too.

27-3 Denver. :joker: @ New Orleans.

COME ON JACKSONVILLE!!!!

real sloppy first half for the steelers, they just arent executing like they have been in the past few weeks

Hideous half by the Steelers...

Willie Williams is playing like he was against Dallas(aka, horrific), Oliver Ross is playing like he was last year(aka laughable), and just a bunch of bad plays overall.

If that was the big TD celebration Johnson was talking about color me unimpressed. That was...dumb...

dumb to say the least.

I'm not worried yet. The thing I notice is that even when the Steelers are playing horribly, they are still well within striking distance.

Also, Bettis has been running very well today.

I think it's safe to say that James won't be back in Indy next year. Colts going with a no-huddle offense and Peyton just keeps firing it from the shotgun.

Very true. Dominic Rhodes is a good enough running back for them to use next year and so forth. They're going to concentrate on re-signing Marvin Harrison, and then maybe trying to sign a good defensive back or lineman.

For tyhe second week in a row Boller throws for 2 TD :handclap:

so what does he have now on the season about 5? :lol

so what does he have now on the season about 5? :lol

7 with 6 Ints.

Looks like the Vikings are packing it in a little earlier than last season and how are the Rams getting beat by the Bills? Bills TE Mark Campbell has 3 tds on 4 catches today and now has 5 tds on 14 catches for the year...does he think he is Jerome Bettis?

Never say never, remember, it is the Lions the Vikes are playing against. 19-15 Lions, with plenty of time left on the clock.

On one hand, I'll be happy to see the Vikes choke against the lowly Lions (and it would show just how important Moss really is), but on the other hand, I would be mad since I picked the Lions to lose and it would drop my winning % in the HF picks thread.

Probably true, but he's now rushed for over 200 yards on the day.

And Vinny makes yet another horrible decision, throwing a pick returned for an INT by #49(didn't catch the name)and its 24-3....please, please throw Henson out there. You have absolutely nothing to lose.

the bengals have about 39 sacks of Big Ben today though none have been very bone jarring

Well, you got your wish. Fumble lost on his first play.

Looks like the rumors of the Vikings demise may have been untrue afterall....though theyd better be carefull about kicking off to Mr Drummond

Well, it wasn't very pretty, but the Steelers won again.

I need another huge game from Brees against Oakland.

Well, you got your wish. Fumble lost on his first play.

Gotta love when the line lets a d-linemen rush straight up the middle. But he did look good, going 6-6 and getting a TD there at the end. He damn well better start on Thanksgiving against Chicago.

Steelers won despite the secondary(sans Polamalu, who was everywhere) and offensive lines forgetting to show up.

Bettis moved into 5th place all time in NFL rushing on his second carry of the game.

Now time to watch Eli Manning get crushed.

Henson looked damn good especially on that 3rd and 7 when they were in the Redzone and Drew scrambled for the first down. As was said by the announcers, he had damn good poise for being his first regular season game.

Well, Brees and San Diego marched right down the field and scored in under 6 minutes. The game is supposed to be on CBS but I can't get it here because of the Steelers local post game show, so I'm stuck watching the Eagles, which means that I might watch McNabb spite me and have a huge game because I benched him.

But I don't know. The Eagles can't stop the run, which means Portis should get a lot of carries and a lot of yards. Which means more possession time for Washington, which translates into less attempts for McNabb, and less TDs and yards ultimately.

Also Washington seems to have a good defense on paper.

Conversely Drew Brees tore up Oakland a few weeks ago, and Oakland sucks against the pass.

Yes, I've thought way too much about this fantasy decision. :help:

Also, stinking Edgerrin James registered 27 points against me, or else I would be breathing more comfortably right now, because I'm having good days from several players... I really miss Holmes, and winning this week without him would be big. I need Blaylock to really step it up. Good thing I didn't going with Kevan Barlow. He sucked again this week.

Pittsburgh doesn't have a second CBS game. It's supposed to be golf, but we have the post-game stuff instead.

I need more football dangit! :mad:

Well Musa Smith's season is over.

yeah, the fumble wasn't his fault. Henson looked good for the little bit that he was out there. definitely something positive. I was listening to the post game press conference by Parcells and he said that with Testaverde getting banged up(shoulder), that Henson will likely start.

also, Julious Jones looked good. he got 81yds on 30 carries. I know it's not 4yds a carry but it he was running against Baltimore too.

I thought he looked good too. It's kind of hard to get a respectable YPC when you're hit cleanly behind the line of scrimmage at least 9-10 times due to shoddy blocking. And yeah, it was Baltimore.

Brees with a rushing TD! :banana:

dammit...there goes my dinner

Colts should do fine. Looks to be a flooded market for RBs next summer.

Names available, either via trade (all for a 2nd or less) or FA:
-Henry
-Bennett/Smith from MN
-James
-Ricky Williams
-Rudi Johnson
-Lamont Jordan
-Anthony Thomas
-Dominic Rhodes
-Larry Johnson
-Buckhalter
-Plus your normal assortment of rookies entering via the draft.

EDIT: and a big neener-neener to all you 'Vikes are choking as usual' pundits! For a team lacking their best player, they have done quite well. Only bad game of the year was the Giants flame-out. Eagles game could have gone either way and both the Colts and Packers were decided on the final play. The defense still stinks and will cause them to be an early out in the post-season, but the Vikes have not choked. Losing to all 4 of the 4-12 crowd is choking. Dropping 2 games on the road to quality opponents by a FG with Moss out while time expires is not.

Not ready to give up but with the next two games against Minny (probably with Moss) and Pittsburgh, today's Jags loss may be the one that keeps them out of the playoffs. Up 13-10, Greg Favors at DE pummels McNair in the endzone for a safety. 15-10. On the kick return, Troy Edwards takes it up to the 50. Jags go downfield and set up a 45 yard attempt by Scobee. He misses it of course. An 8 point lead there would have been huge. Instead Tennessee marches downfield for the score and the two point convert and ends up winning the game.

Glad I went to see my 49ers play the Bucs today. :cry:

how have the Redskins won any games at all this year? they are seriously painful to watch

Glad I went to see my 49ers play the Bucs today. :cry:

:yo: :handclap: :yo:

the best player for the Niners is without a doubt their punter ... he kicked from his end zone, and the ball didn't hit the ground before the Bucs' 20 yard line

Well Musa Smith's season is over.

Oh what a surprise... Roy Williams with that cheapass takedown from behind again.

Brees with a rushing TD! :banana:

San Diego Super Chargers!!!! :handclap:

Now that Tomlinson is almost back at full strength(37 carries, 164 yards and TD :eek: ) I'd like to find a defence down the stretch that can slow the Chargers down with the momentum they have. Kansas City twice, Denver(battle for the division lead), Cleveland, Tampa and Indy(should be a killer game to watch!) Gates has another 100yds and a TD. Man. Who would have predicted San Diego at 7-3???....

And those poor Dolphins....It looked like they were about to upset Seattle....then it all fell apart...again :help: lol. When it rains it pours. Who wins the battle of the basement next week? Miami or San Francisco??? :lol

Man the Bills destroyed the Rams...Faulk had 13 rushes for like 6 yards...talk about domination

Oh what a surprise... Roy Williams with that cheapass takedown from behind again.

So what is he supposed to do? Not tackle the guy and let him run for a TD? Injuries happen all the time....its just part of the game.

Earlier in the season he made the exact same type of tackle on T. Calico (out of bounds mind you) and the result was extremely nasty (both knees torn up, gone for the season). Yeah, he does have to make the tackle... I'm just still bitter about the very dirty hit on Calico in pre-season.

Its a tackle...people get tackled out of bounds all the time, just so happens Calico got hurt. Nothing dirty about tackling anyone.

Buffalo's return game was amazing today too....One TD and another one taken back to the 5

Buffalo's D is awesome right now. Near the top in the league. If the offense plays decent, they have a chance every game.

Its just amzing. The Colts put up 40 points pratically every week with ease. Manning only passed for about 210 yds, ah well James runs for 200 yars & out of his 210 yds ppassing Peyton throws 4td's. Forget about breaking Marino's record, Peyton is going to smash it to bits.

My Giants

Eli had a solid game, made some mistales, but overall played well for someone making his 1st start. 2nd half was MUCH better than the 1st half. Although some of the passes dropped were not great passes, they were still solid passed. This game falls on the backs of the Giants Receiving core which had a bad case of the dropsies especially in the 1st half

Gooooooooooooooooooooo CHIEFS!

I second that. I need like 30 yards rushing/recieving and a TD from Blaylock and I will win this week.

I would have won if I would have started Tynes over stupid Dawson, or done the sensible thing and started McNabb, who has the most points so far this week in our whole league. :banghead:

Gooooooooooooooooooooo CHIEFS!

No chance!

NICE :gman:

NICE :gman:

Well maybe a chance ;)

I hate you, New England.

One touchdown. One. That's all I need.

I'm getting worried. :mad:

And you call yourself a Steeler fan. :mad:

You sicken me. :madfire:

Steeler fan who's looking out for my own interests.

It's in our best interest if New England loses. But I don't really care, I need one score from Blaylock. Too bad he didn't just get it. :banghead:

:banana: Great to see Deion back in the lineup

I need two more yards rushing from Blaylock in order to go ahead by one point.

:D Well if the Chiefs get the ball back you should get at least that.

The Chiefs defense knows no limits of sucking, though.

Sometimes, though, my calculations are off on the low side. Maybe they combine the recieving yards and rushing yards for players and count it that way (it's 1 pt per 10 yards). If they did it that way, I've won.

I just need the Chiefs to get the ball back.

Edit: so the one time these morons actually stop someone, they jump offsides. Vermil should send out his offensive players to play defense just to spite this pathetic bunch. :shakehead

If it's a Yahoo league then its - 1 point per 20 yd rushing/1 point per 20 yd receiving.

Well they got the ball back but I doubt you'll see KC run the ball.

Down ya go Trent!!! :lol:

Unless I get an extra point, I've tied for the first time in fantasy football ever.

Guess I'll find out tommorow.
