U2Rox Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 How about them Cowboys!?! 44-6! Way to show up boys, and we are now winless in season finales since 2000! A sad day for the boys!! My brother is a crazy fan, I tell him not to get his hopes up, because the Cowboys always end up letting him down!!
TheHulk Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Not to menchion the Cowgirls are winless in the playoffs since who knows when. --Chris Haha, and it makes this win all the more better! E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!!!!!!!!!!
spaceace12 Posted December 29, 2008 Author Posted December 29, 2008 Being the winners of quite possibly the worst season from a single division in the history of the NFL really isn't much to be proud about. I despise the Patriots, but it's a crime that an 8-8 team made it into the playoffs over an 11-5 team. That is just how it goes. By that mark, the Colts should be playing Chargers in Indy, but since they go by 1-4 is division winners and 5,6 and wild cards, it sucks. Besides the Titans, the Colts have the second best record in the playoffs.
BeemerBoy Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 ^ I actually think the NFL should begin to think about situating the standings in a way similar to the NHL. There should be a way that the top 8 teams in each conference, regardless of division, go to the dance. Also, which Eagles fan is delegated as the one to remind your idiot QB that there are no ties in the playoffs?
Hercules Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 ^^Cassel is good, but is not 1/2 of Brady was. The Pats are winning and stand a chance to get in, albeit, a very slim one. I think Cassel will not be with the Pats next year. Brady is thier star QB, the only way I see them getting rid of Brady is if isn't what he used to be. Brady's first season as a starter: 2843 yards, 63.9% completions, 18TD/12INT, 86.5 passer rating. Matt's current season: 3615 yards, 63.2% completions, 21TD/11INT, 89.2 passer rating. They could even finish with identical regular season records after their first season (11-5).... It's also worth noting Bledsoe had just signed his fat 10 year contract as the "star" of the Pats when Brady took over... Side note: I don't really care for the NFL or the Pats. But since I've known Matt and his brothers for a long time (Chatsworth High School/Northridge Litte League FTW), I have to follow him. Not to mention, in his second season and first full year as a starter, the Patriots went 9-7, losing to the Dolphins in the last game of the season. Sure, they won the Super Bowl the season before, so not making the playoffs the next year doesn't really mean to much, but Brady didn't singlehandedly do it all - Bledsoe came in during the AFC Championship when Brady got injured and put on a solid show to help them get to the Super Bowl. And Brady never would have gotten a shot unless Bledsoe didn't get leveled in that game against the Jets. But anyway, since a bunch of other people are doing their fight songs: Hail to the Redskins! Hail Victory! Braves on the Warpath! Fight for old D.C.! Run or pass and score -- we want a lot more! Beat 'em, Swamp 'em, Touchdown! -- Let the points soar! Fight on, fight on 'Til you have won Sons of Wash-ing-ton. Rah!, Rah!, Rah! Hail to the Redskins! Hail Victory! Braves on the Warpath! Fight for old D.C.! Yes, I know they didn't make the playoffs, but I am still loyal. And I like a Colts - Giants Super Bowl this year, with the Falcons and Ravens as possible surprises.
BeemerBoy Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 ^ Jay, I applaud your loyalty. I know the off-season for many teams is young, but any odds on which potential pain-in-the-arse trouble maker Jerry Jones might be looking to acquire for next year's underachieving Cowboys squad?
mcjaco Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Hi, I'm the playoffs. I've laid myself out nicely on this platter for you, oh mighty Chicago Bears. Oh, I'm sorry, were you not hungry this year?
alpengeist04 Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 How 'bout them Dolphins!!!! From 1-15 to 11-5, baby.
chmilo24 Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 ^I know biggest turnaround in NFL history. I bet the Lions are going to go 19-0 next year, or at least get a Wild Card spot. --Chris
DevilSaint Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Totally agreed Beemer. The division winner getting an automatic playoff spot when there were 2/3 divisions was fine but being the best out of only 4 teams should not earn you a playoff spot. I say top 2 divison winners get byes and the next 6 teams are based purely on records would be the way to go.
Josh Davidson Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 First time since 1981 all four major teams in Philadelphia went to the postseason in the same year, and for the Eagles.... E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES! Lets go up Broad Street for two times in one year!
chef kitchen Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 ^I know biggest turnaround in NFL history. I bet the Lions are going to go 19-0 next year, or at least get a Wild Card spot. --Chris
Kalepi_Konei Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I'm so depressed in my Cowboys... but hey theres always next season. Gratz Eagles on epicly beating us. Enjoy the playoffs.
chef kitchen Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I'm so depressed in my Cowboys... but hey theres always next season. Gratz Eagles on epicly beating us. Enjoy the playoffs. I wanted to find out what Romo would do this season to screw them over in the 4th quater.
chmilo24 Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 ^I know I really wanted to see another famous Tony Homo choke! Those are more epic than the Eagles beating them this year. --Chris
TheHulk Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 If anyone's interested, here's Romo crying again! LOL! "I'm sorry I choked again, please don't be mad at me..."
spaceace12 Posted January 2, 2009 Author Posted January 2, 2009 MVP announcement time. Who was? Philip Rivers? Adrian Peterson? Chad P. from the Dolphins. Nope, now Three time MVP Peyton Manning. Even if I wasn't a Colts fan, I would have said it would have been him. To go from a crap team in the beg. to a playoff contendor with 9 wins in a row.
BeemerBoy Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 I'd rather have Pennington holding the Lombardi trophy anyway.
spaceace12 Posted January 2, 2009 Author Posted January 2, 2009 I'd rather have Pennington holding the Lombardi trophy anyway. hArd to do that when they won't be playing after thsi weekend!
BeemerBoy Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 ^ You see the future? Awesome! Just let me know who's gonna cover. That's more important now.

chmilo24 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 If anyone's interested, here's Romo crying again! I never get tired of seeing that. Whenever I'm feeling down I just go to this thread, look at those two pictures I'm all better. --Chris
Jew Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Even if I wasn't a Colts fan, I would have said it would have been him. To go from a crap team in the beg. to a playoff contendor with 9 wins in a row. Oh right. Chad Pennington is just the QB for the greatest turnaround in NFL history. Of course Peyton Manning was the undisputed MVP. Not saying that "p-money" didn't deserve it, but you're kidding yourself if you are trying to say that is an unbiased comment. Anyways... DOWN WITH THE BCS! Oh, sorry. Wrong level of football!
