NFL Thread

Anyone got any comments on Peyton Manning's recent form?

It seems like without Austin Collie and Dallas Clark starting, Manning can't seem to hit any passes. The Joseph Addai injury means Colts have zero running game and Peyton is expected to do all the work.

Pierre Garcon is an average WR and he's finally been exposed. Tamme seems to be the only one getting it right. Don't get me started on Reggie Wayne - the dude cannot catch. Hands like a digital watch!

Seems like the cracks are starting to appear for the Colts. A few big name players get injured and it shows that they are lacking a bit of depth. As an Indianapolis I'm getting worried - if somehow we can maintain a decent record until we get our stars back, we might have a chance making the playoffs. Only time will tell!
 
Peyton Manning's recent form is the worst in his career, but the effort is still at a high level. His really trying too hard to make plays on every pass. GraysonLuke you said about missing Austin Collie, Dallas Clark. But the main man there missing the most is Joseph Addai they ain't getting the same quality of rushing from Donald Brown.....

Hey the Colts can still make the play off's with two games against the shocking Titans, away to the Raiders & there danger game against AFC south leaders the Jags!!!!

This is over used in the NRL too much, but in the NFL this season it is the closes season may be ever. Where four or more teams in the AFC could win the conference championship & the top two teams (barring the NFC west) in each division could win the NFC championship....


If the play off's where next week this would be the schedule:

AFC:
Ravens @ Jaguars
Patriots @ Chiefs

Steelers seeded #2 & Jets seeded #1

*that's with the Pats-Jets match still to play

NFC:
Giants @ Rams
Saints @ Eagles
Bears seeded #2 & Falcons seeded #1

Good win for the Steelers today over the Ravens. Puts them in the drivers seat and a top the AFC North. Another couple of dodgy calls against the Steelers though.

Roethlisberger gets smacked in the face by Ngata during a sack and gets his nose broke yet no flag thrown. What happened to not being allowed to hit the QB in the head? Dude got his nose broke as Ngata's whole hand went through his facemask. I mean there was blood dripping everywhere and his nose was smashed across his face. Imagine if that happened to Brady or if James Harrison did that to a QB. What a joke.

Another missed call happened when Heath Miller couldn't haul in a pass from Roethlisberger and a good second or two after the ball had passed, Jameel McClain comes out of no where and launches himself into the defenseless Miller head first and knocks him out of the game because of concussion from a blatant, sickening, helmet to helmet hit, yet no flag thrown once again. The league isn't even trying to hide the fact that they have it in for the Steelers.

As for Manning's play as of late, 11 INT's in his last 3 games. That's woeful. You can't be turning the ball over like that. A few of those have gone for 6 aswell. That's unacceptable. I acknowledge they have injuries, but with Manning playing like that, no wonder they're 6-6 after losing to the Cowboys today.
 
Great win by the Pats. Best team in the league IMO followed by the Steelers. For the Steelers to have any chance at making the Superbowl though, they're going to need someone to knock off the Pats in the playoffs, because I highly doubt we'll be able to. It's just not a good match up for us. Brady's been lighting us up for years now.

How good is Vick playing honeslty. I know tom brady and other are better but no one could have seen this coming. What a win for the Eagles!!!!
 
I agree Tom for MVP. But Vick is playing some out of this world football. I wonder what his stats would be if he started and played every game :think:
 
It looks weird watching the Bears - Vikings game with the Big Ten logo & Minnesota university markings on the field ....
