Let the games begin... Saturday: Raiders vs. Texans 4:35 pm Lions vs. Seahawks 8:15 pm Sunday: Dolphins vs. Steelers 1:05 pm Giants vs. Packers 4:40 pm Go Raiders, Steelers, and Giants. Honestly I like the Raiders and Steelers chances not so much the Giants. I posted this early so I can get your feedback on who you think will win each Game as I will be out most of the day tommorrow.
...Connor Cook first time starting a game will make him the first rookie QB to start a PS game who didn't start start a game during the regular season. ...I'm sure the Texans will try to pressure Cook so the Raiders' offensive line as well as their defense needs to show up Saturday or the Raiders' season is ovah.
...Raiders' 2017 schedule has been released...simply brutal...gotta be one of the toughest schedules in the NFL; Home: New England Patriots, New York Jets, Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs. Away: Tennessee Titans, Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins, Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs.
^^^ great stuff you two- Geezus, if Oakland can get thru next year, they should make a bee line right thru P.S. and the S.B.... hopefully in a year or 2, they will do just that; hope Cook can crucify defenses, and blow out the comp...! got to run, brb in a few hrs. guess that's not being right back then is it-?BRBIACH? will return to this- ^^^
I too am more optimistic with the Raiders & Steelers....... As for the Giants, not so much. I just do not see Eli taking the Giants to a victory against The Pack led by Aaron Rodgers, Clay Matthews & Eddie Lacy. Just hoping Giant D plays respectable. He is not the Eli of five years ago. Just a thought.............Giants played a whole season without a productive TE & RB and a make shift OL......no wonder Giants had tough time scoring TDs, forever relying on olde Giant faithful FG and with a poor FG kicker at that! Yes, the Giants' O scored just enough with much help from a stout D. Cannot see this scenario occurring in Green Bay this Sunday.
I agree with you Cage, hoping for the best but expect the worse. It supposed to be freezing in Green Bay this weekend so I think anything is possible. Aaron Rodgers has been on his Game in their 6 straight wins. If Eli can pull out some magic like the last 2 Super Bowls I will be very surprised. Just to give you an update: The stupid Knicks finally won a game after losing 6 straight.
Honestly I can't either not in Lambeau, tho' I will never forget Miami playing in Lambeau, soaking wet in 10 degree's of a snow covered field, who say's GB doesn't lose in GB? Bu then wtf was Jim Zorn doing in a Cheese Uni-??? Lacy is on Injured Reserve, Cobb- Questionable at best Starks- Concussion Shields- "------------" Matthews- Questionable, but will suit up, and shoot up with oxycaine? Perry also, Oh HELL the entire LB corp is questionable... fk, G-Men win, I think,... Unless Rodger's and Ha Ha Clinton Dix, can save the day single handedly...damn cheese heads, beginning to show mold... http://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/gnb/2016.htm on the other league, "Screw the Heisman Curse"- hope the big back & Bama-alumn, along with Mariota, can both screw the Heisman curse??? Has Tennessee too many weapons they have or have not found the balance of talent/power. Mariota is working on both #10 for INT's, and Fumble's, perhaps the curse is for real???
Wow. How many years is it that the Knicks (1) were in the playoffs????? (2) had a winning season?????
Underestimated the Texans D. They have thrown the gauntlet down on the Cook-led Raiders. Sorry, Ron......... really thought the Silver & Black could take this game. Can they make a game of this? Down 27-14.
...game not quite over but it may as well be, so I thought I'd post my thoughts. ...The Raiders lose their MVP candidate QB on Christmas eve, then lost their backup QB a week later...and ended up starting a rookie vs the #1 defense in the NFL...not a good combination. ...The Raiders had a league leading 7 players to the Pro Bowl but 3 of them got injured and could not start in today's game...hard to over come that ...The Silver and Black had the #1 seed and had a great season going until 2 weeks ago, and it all came crumbling down. For me, it was tough to witness but then again, I enjoyed watching them and enjoyed seeing the franchise finally return to relevance once again. ...moving forward, I'm not a big fan of Ken Norton Jr. as defensive coordinator and I haven't been since he was given the job.
^^^^^^ Here you go, Lillie...... The last season they won the NBA Finals was.............1972 vs LA Lakers 4-1. That's 44 years ago! Amidst losing seasons in the 2000s, in 2012 they surprisingly had a winning record 54-28. It's recent, but I do not remember it because it was surrounded by 13 losing seasons!
That's some funny Shit Cage! As the snow falls down here in NYC, I will give a toast to you, laugh my ass off and watch the rest of the Detroit/Seattle Game.
The Giant dream in playoffs has come to an end. When they had a first and goal on The Pack 3 yard line and come away with their obligatory FG, you had to know they were in for a long, losing game. TDs win football games, not field goals. I think Eli's days as Giant #1 QB are numbered. In truth I never expected the Giants to be a playoff team this year, so making the playoffs was an achievement. The future will depend how Giant management get legitimate players to fill critical positions.
...4 lopsided weekend NFL games. ...tonight's Bama/Clemson game should be a good one...2 very evenly matched teams.
