ok. so i watch NFL Redzone and don't really catch a complete game so I'm not sure who did it, or who got hurt, but I saw one of the cheapest, thugiest* plays I've seen since that punk for the steelers ruined Carson Palmer's knee in the play off game a few years back.

Some punk ass bitch for the Titans went directly after one of the Broncos defensive back's knees after the play was over.

They weren't even involved in the play. He simply dipped down and dived, helmet first, into the guys knee!



*yeah, i coined a word!

Harry Douglas on Chris Harris Jr. Yes it was a dirty play.

I don't know why people keep writing off the Rams when they play the Seahawks. Are the Seahawks the better team? Absolutely, it's not even an argument but when those two play each other, it's usually a defensive battle and I don't expect anything different despite the situation the Rams are in as an organization.

Very dirty play, indeed. I'm hoping the NFL hits Douglas with a hefty fine.

I wish I shared your confidence. The Broncos have a very difficult remaining 3 games: Patriots, @ Chiefs, Raiders. With our anemic offense, I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see the Broncos lose all 3 of those games and finish 8-8 and out of the playoffs.

I think they'll figure it out that defense is just too good sadly something like that can not be said about the Pats.

Of course Manning wasn't the same but like people said he still had his incredible football smarts and he knew how and when to slow the other game done that's something players learn witb experience just like reading plays.

As poorly as the Hawks played I don't think Wilson can be blamed for some of the interceptions, Baldwin played like crap and the other receiver wasn't that much better.
 
I'm calling it now.

Rex Ryan will be the next coach of the LA Rams :eek:

I know he's not fired [yet], but it will happen :p
 
Dolphins 8-5 and a nice win vs the Cardinals. Gonna be a tough ending to the season without our Qb, but we will see what happens. BTW I hate Saturday games at the end of the season, especially during the holidays. So much going on. UGH

I just saw this on ESPN, and its odd that they'd drop the hammer on him during a short week.

Of course Seattle had nothing to fear with the Rams, regardless of who coached them

After they announced a 2 year extension no less.

Really, though they kept reiterating it was given to him before the season started, still its embarrassing.

Given his track record as a coach why extend him. Just shows how badly this team is run. I don't think Fisher could ever turn that ship around if they gave him 10 years.

I agree completely, I thought he was the wrong person for the job when they hired him, and couldn't believe he hadn't been fired last year, never mind a contract extension. I think the owner finally realized that he'll not be selling many luxury suites with a coach that has the most loses in NFL history. If he coaches again, he'll no doubt own that record instead of being tied with Dan Reeves.

Pete Carroll rules out coaching the Rams

Why is this even being reported or considered? He's got a sweet situation up in Seattle, he's been to two Super Bowls (won one of them), a great team, and a great front office.

Ya lol..
He signed an extension last year and....

"While the Rams could contact the Seahawks in an effort to essentially trade for Carroll, it’s unlikely that Seattle owner Paul Allen would agree to surrender his head coach to a division rival — unless L.A. owner Stan Kroenke made Allen an offer he can’t refuse."

Don't think the owner of the RAMS has anything to offer Paul Allen. The guy is like the 4th richest man in the world.
 
need a big night from seattle D tonight and hopefully Gurley can get in the endzone just once lol.

I need Wilson,Baldwin and Jimmy to step up big time in this game if I'm to have any chance at winning.
