Sunday Games - Week 3

[pbmax]

Watching Lions-Vikes

So far, both teams look 8-8 mediocre.

[pbmax]

Corey Williams just pulled a Johnny Jolly on a Favre screen pass. INT. And Toby Gerhard almost couldn't catch him to save the TD.

[pbmax]

TD Lions. Scheffler catch across the middle. Nice pocket movement from Shaun Hill. Cats up 7-0.

[gbgary]

LOL bf int leads to lion td.

[RashanGary]

Corey Williams just pulled a Johnny Jolly on a Favre screen pass. INT. And Toby Gerhard almost couldn't catch him to save the TD.

If Gerhart's not injured, I'll just go ahead and say it now, that guy sucks. He's slow as fuck.

[pbmax]

New Orleans is just crazy on offense.

He nearly got blocked from behind by a Lion D lineman. But he escaped. Might have been a flag, but he would have taken a lot of grief in the film session.

[gbgary]

Texans about to go in for td

[pbmax]

Harvin is limping after a good low hit on the KO return.

[pbmax]

Purple Jesus is just a beast. Should have been tackled but shook off a high tackle from a Lion LB.

[RashanGary]

I would never try to tackle AP high. EVER.

[gbgary]

No...a fg instead

[pbmax]

Lions with a nice blitz and a batted ball.

[pbmax]

Lions with a nice blitz and a batted ball.
Darryl, they blitzed a LB.

And same ol' Lions. Dropped a punt while in the clear.

[RashanGary]

Bert almost overthrew that, haha.

[pbmax]

Great throw by Bert. Harvin was wide open.

[gbgary]

No defence on that play. Yikes.

[pbmax]

Safety bit on the TE on an underneath route. Bad coverage.

[RashanGary]

Great throw by Bert. Harvin was wide open.

I don't know about that. That was so close to overthrown.

[RashanGary]

I could have completed that pass. How is it that this guy gets props for throwing the easiest passes in the league?

[pbmax]

I could have completed that pass. How is it that this guy gets props for throwing the easiest passes in the league?
Because a 30 yard throw down the middle of the field is no sure thing. He could have put more air under it, but its still 7.

[pbmax]

Jahvid Best just made Ben Leber grab air and look like a 12 year old trying to tackle.

[pbmax]

Chiefs over San Fran. Maybe there is more to coaching than being intense.

[Lurker64]

Corey Williams just pulled a Johnny Jolly on a Favre screen pass. INT. And Toby Gerhard almost couldn't catch him to save the TD.

If Gerhart's not injured, I'll just go ahead and say it now, that guy sucks. He's slow as fuck.

Keep in mind that a guy with a 5.0 40 that means 24 feet per second, while a guy with a 4.5 40 is running at 26.67 feet per second. That means it takes more than a second for a fast guy to catch a slow guy if the slow guy has a 1 yard yard head start and meantime the slow guy will have advanced the ball at least 8 yards down the field.... and that's assuming that they're both moving in the correct direction at full speed initially. In the case of the Williams interception, Williams actually had a head start over Gerhart. Nobody will mistake Gerhart for Reggie Bush, but he's not actually all that slow. He's mostly just white.

[pbmax]

Shaun Hill with late throw, turns single coverage with safety nearby into triple coverage. Timing is everything boys.

[gbgary]

Lions are still the lions. Two gifts, a muffed punt and a blown coverage, GIVE minn a td. The only way minn loses this is if they're more inept than detroit.

[pbmax]

I will say this: Lions O line looks better. But then they just hold Fat Pat.

[gbgary]

Lions with the give up play on 2nd 20

[pbmax]

And Hanson misses a FG. Holding calls are killers.

[gbgary]

Boys up 7-3

[pbmax]

Buffalo up on NE 13-7

[pbmax]

Nicely blocked run and Purple Jesus finishes well.

[GrnBay007]

Buffalo up on NE 13-7

If by some chance NE would lose today we would only have 3 left in our survival pool lol

[Brando19]

How about Charlie Batch with 3 TD's? Maybe the Vikings should have tried to sign him...lol.

I think you forgot to account for differential in wind resistance based on the different surface areas exposed for different sized players. Plus the integrals you are using are based on purely linear mathematics. I want to see the angled vectors on this. Show all math. No partial credit.

[GrnBay007]

Falcons are hangin with NO. I knew I took Atlanta in the pick em but didn't realize I took them for so many points...ugh.

[mraynrand]

And Hanson misses a FG. Holding calls are killers.

If that had been Crosby, no one would be blaming it on the holding call (assuming that's what you mean to say here). Anyway, 44 yards indoors for Jason Hanson should be automatic.

No, wasn't blaming holding for the missed kick, not directly anyway. Did mean to comment that something as simple as holding, at 10 yards, can just kill an otherwise good drive, which the Lions were having.

[pbmax]

Brett is just not able to avoid pressure in pocket like he used to. Got hit, skyed a ball for an INT.

[Brando19]

Brett's going to retire soon...2nd INT.

[pbmax]

Falcons are hangin with NO. I knew I took Atlanta in the pick em but didn't realize I took them for so many points...ugh.
That one looks like a shootout all the way.

[pbmax]

Derick (sp?) Williams saves Hill on a throw into coverage. Went up and got it. Survived the fall when he landed and slid down the Viking defender.

[pbmax]

Browns in striking distance. Down 14-10 to Ravens. Senaca Wallace, history's most underrated passer? :)

[pbmax]

Carlie Batch might have a job if Ben wasn't coming back.

[GrnBay007]

that was a great catch. Lions are a better looking team this year.

[GrnBay007]

Dang some good games going on this afternoon....but I'm off to a baseball game. My boy playing fall baseball and football. I'm very ready for baseball to be over for the season. Enjoy the games!

[Fosco33]

Brett's going to retire soon...2nd INT.

And almost a 3rd...

[RashanGary]

The Lions are no push over, but on the road. . . . The Lions and Vikings are about even teams right now.

I haven't seem too much of the Bears. Depending on how good the Bears are, this could be a one team division.

[pbmax]

Wasn't that 3rd down outlet to AP a backward lateral? Even of Hoculi said it wasn't? (Not sure, had it on mute-just saw Charles Atlas talking)

[pbmax]

Says me. Still 14-14 deep in the 3rd. :oops:

[pbmax]

On the plus side, I now know how Longwell has suddenly developed the ability to kick it to the goal line, while rarely doing that for the Packers. He is kicking line drives and no Viking gets in striking distance of the return until he is almost to the 20.

[denverYooper]

Brett's going to retire soon...2nd INT.

And almost a 3rd...

Yah. Wiped out by a penalty.

[Fred's Slacks]

Wasn't that 3rd down outlet to AP a backward lateral? Even of Hoculi said it wasn't? (Not sure, had it on mute-just saw Charles Atlas talking)

Yes, that was a terrible call. Peterson was 2 yards behind Favre when he threw it. The hit wasn't what caused the backwards pass. Should have been a latteral and a fumble. Might not have made a difference as the Vikings looked like they would have recovered, making for a slightly longer Longwell FG. But you never know.

[pbmax]

Good luck. Just did soccer yesterday. Dad is more tired than children.

[Fred's Slacks]

Everyone expected us to demolish the Bills last week so no one was impressed when we did. However that same Bills team is hanging with NE.

[Fred's Slacks]

Never run on the Vikings on 3rd and short. Never works.

[Brando19]

AP 80 yard TD...Brett should kiss his feet right now.

[gbgary]

buff playing ne tough. makes our win a little more impressive.

[Fred's Slacks]

Detroit Melting Down.

[gbgary]

hockey fight in minn

[gbgary]

no takes the lead

[Cheesehead Craig]

Ryan had a very studly drive to give ATL the lead. Beautiful passes to Roddy White including the TD. White got me 10 fantasy points on that drive alone.

[pbmax]

I think Frankenbacker forced Purple Jesus out of bounds.

[pbmax]

That Mike Singletary, he is just so intense. I don't understand why someone doesn't give him a shot to coach. And then make him defacto GM. :roll:

[pbmax]

Lions 2 INTs in endzone. They are not ready yet. At lease with Shaun Hill as QB.

Reports of Vikings demise might be premature. But they are very reliant on AP right now.

[pbmax]

Holy sheep dip, Hartley honked it wide left from like 20 yards. Atlants has the ball after the Saints were on the 10 yard line.

[pbmax]

That was one of the strangest OTs I have ever seen. Honked chip shot Figgie. A FG blocked but the play didn't happened as the defense (NO) had called the clever timeout (Good work Mr. Payton!). Next try, penalty on the kicking team. Backed up, then nail the FG. Atlanta wins the hard way.

Good to know someone in that division will fight the Saints.

And boy am I glad I get Colts versus Broncos. Why would I want to see the Eagles versus the Redskins? Stupid CBS doubleheader.

:shock:

I should turn the sound up.

[pbmax]

D Thomas probably just caused an INT by cutting his route off and letting the CB have position to intercept. But then, just as the CB sped by the entire Bronco O, Thomas caught him. Both were traveling at a different speed than the rest.

[pbmax]

Laurence Maroney has twice missed open holes in order to take it back inside and gain next to nothing. With the Gophers in college, he seemed unstoppable. Has he had this problem in New England too?

[pbmax]

On the reviewed Bronco touchdown, I thought the colts defender yanked his leg back rather than seeing his knee hit the turf and roll forward.

[mission]

watching amosugha ON fitz is a thing of beauty. it looks effortless.

there's no way revis is a better corner.

[pbmax]

Orton with a nice bomb to Lloyd for a TD. Receivers are getting open for McDaniels and Orton.

[mmmdk]

Great matchup yet Fitz got his TD. Janikowski missed wide left from 32 with 4 secs. left and Cards win 24-23. Great game by two mediocre teams.

That means it takes more than a second for a fast guy to catch a slow guy if the slow guy has a 1 yard yard head start and meantime the slow guy will have advanced the ball at least 8 yards down the field....

You could even say that according to that perspective the fast guy would never catch the slow guy: by the time he catches up to where the slow guy was the slow guy will always have advanced some distance.

[RashanGary]

Mike Vick is back. He almost looks like a better passer. Not quite as fast as before, but he's still like a really good RB who happens to be a damn good passer now too.

'Archimedes' Williams is a shitty tackler - even if he could catch the guy, he'd miss him.

[pbmax]

Jets might finally start playing at their level of hype.

[DannoMac21]

Brandon Marshall giving me some insurance points. Lovin' it.

[Fosco33]

Anyone watching Jets-fins?

Why does NBC have the spanish version on my TV:

I'm hoping the Packers can do the same :).
