2012-2013 NFL Football Thread

Falcons- Seahawks. What-a-crock. I have no vested interest in this game other than my dislike of Atlanta. So who called the timeout as the guy was kicking his botched field goal, ha. 😱

Ryan had a good game and moved the ball at the end when he had to, but he still isn't Matty Ice. He went from Matty Room Temperate to Matty Slightly Chilled.

Russell Wilson looks like he can throw the ball too.

Ravens/Broncos yesterday wasn't bad either.
I don't even like the Ravens either 😛

While that was a very good game and you can't argue with over time, the excitement at the end of this game happened almost too fast. One exciting moment after another.

If he were really Matty Ice, he wouldn't have taken off for most of the second half. He has a long way to go before he can truly earn that nickname.

Comes through in the absolute clutch better than any QB I've seen in a long time
Game is never over until the clock reads 00:00 with him

I don't see him every week but I think that's a bit of an overstatement. He's won one playoff game. That's very far from clutch. Even if you ignore playoffs, Brady, Manning, Manning, and many others come to mind long before Ryan.

I watch plenty of football, thank you very much 😉
Take time to read the article, just as one reference
Matt Ryan Passes Tom Brady As NFL's Best QB In The Clutch

Written in October...
Matt Ryan’s 19-11 (.633) record in clutch fourth quarter/overtime games momentarily moves him past Tom Brady (37-23; .617) for the best record in NFL history (min. 30 opportunities).

Doesn't really count as clutch in the 4th quarter if you choke it out in the other 2/3 quarters. I like Matt Ryan, he's a BC guy, but you're stretching it a bit with him.

And it's tough to be clutch when you are 1-3 in the playoffs. I like him too as he grew up 20 mins from my house.

He did? Omg.

To be honest I think the kicker missed because of the refs whistling as he was kicking.

Then again I've seen plenty of times when the kicker makes it after missing because of a late timeout. You'd think coaches wouldn't keep doing it. Just like the prevent D. It prevents you from winning alright 😀
