[Upnorth]

sf still playing det tough

[pbmax]

Cam having a small hissy fit over being sacked while waiting for hail mary. Not sure what he expected to happen on route. Maybe landed on his leg?

[pbmax]

Detroit takes the lead on a late TD.

[Upnorth]

Still lots of clock left in det. Was with in 7pts, philly let them back in.

[pittstang5]

Stupid Eagles and Panthers...cost me today.

[Joemailman]

Rex Grossman with 4 INT's today. That's the Rex I remember.

[pbmax]

Detroit takes the lead on a late TD.

Yep, I had the clock wrong. Sloooow game.

[Guiness]

Detroit takes the lead on a late TD.

And SF re-takes the lead on an even later TD.

Nice throw and effort after the catch. 1:30 on the clock, and SF kicking off with a 3pt lead.

[Upnorth]

I love me some 49ers right now. Go Smith

[Cheesehead Craig]

Go Niners!

[Guiness]

I almost typed that as well, but I did not steal it this time he he

P.S. Screw you lions!

[Upnorth]

Sack, nice screw you stafford

[Upnorth]

Is it just me or does anyone else think Baltimore will destroy Houston? They seem like the team baltimore is ment to beat and beat badly.

[CaliforniaCheez]

The Lions are no longer #1 in the NFC.

[Teamcheez1]

I guess Megatampon is beatable.

[pittstang5]

Anyone see the coaches after the Detroit game. Harbough jumping around like he won the superbowl while meeting Schwartz. Schwartz doesn't like it and chases after him...pretty funny.

I hope this catches on. LOL

Yes, both coaches have a tendency to act bush league at times. They're still both very young and have some growing up to do.
The really good coaches know how to "carry themselves" in both good times and bad. These two, not so much.

And god knows we'll see this about a hundred times in the next couple of days. For the record, Harbough is still a punk, and a poor winner. Just like at Michigan. What a chump. Of course Schwartz won't win any points for his reaction either. Good stuff!

[pbmax]

Lion fan out of sorts, I hope its not a friend of Fritz's:

Romo had a pick early and it was his classic form. He was bailing out of the way of an unblocked rusher, but hadn't reset his feet or checked downfield to re-time with his receiver.

He just knows where he wants to throw and wants to get rid of it fast while falling away from contact. And so he makes a throw that is off target and poorly timed.

I think most of what Romo does wrong is completely correctable. I wonder if my read on him is incorrect, or if Garret isn't the guy to do it.

[mmmdk]

My goodness; Fortywhiners has a cup cake schedule from hence on :shock:

[Guiness]

Brady engineers an amazing drive to end the game. He has the heart of an assassin (and just won a close game lol).

Saints Jimmy Graham has 4 consecutive 100-yard rec games, joining Tony Gonzalez as only TEs to do it in single season in NFL history

[RashanGary]

Did anyone find it nauseating when they said AR had the "cool of Joe Montana", the "athleticism of John Elway", the "arm of Dan Marino", "the smarts of Peyton Manning" and "the accuracy of Tom Brady". . . .


Holy crap. They called him the greatest QB to ever play the game and not even by a small stretch. I thought Collinsworth had some big praise last week. It was valid, entertaining, somewhat profound considering AR has never really been thought of as the best player in the game today. . . What they did on fox today made me kind of cringe.

AR has none of the qualities they listed. He's not 10's across the board. If I had to rate him, I'd go like this. . . .

10 in accuracy
9.5 in smarts
9.0 in cool
8.5 in arm
8 in athleticism

I don't think it's a stretch to call him one of the most complete QB's to play, but come on, nobody is the greatest ever at everything. The day that happens everyone will know it. It would be like Tiger Woods in his prime, but even Tiger wasn't the best driver, iron hitter, short game hitter or putter. He was just complete, great at all of them, but the best at none.

[vince]

Yeah I thought that too about the over-the-top comparisons. He's the most complete, but he's not better than the best of all-time in every category.

I'd give him a 9 in arm, a 9 in quick release, 9.5 in ball handling and he's moving up the board in leadership.

Its hard to have a qb like this and still be humble about skills. I am not hacking, but I looked at your numbers and went yeah that seems fair. Then paused and went holy crap he is great!!!

[Joemailman]

Christian Ponder in the game with the Vikings down 39-10.

[Upnorth]

Ponder looks elusive and not bad. That is too bad.

[Joemailman]

He needs to be elusive because he's running for his life on every play. Is the Vikings OL always that bad?

[digitaldean]

So, will we see Ponder next Sunday? Hate to hear the phone calls on KFAN after this one. Man, this Vikings team played god-awful tonight. Even Ryan "it's the holders fault" Longwell had shankitis tonight.

You know youre suppose to take your meds before posting man.

I took as more of saying he has all these key elements to his game not that he was better at it than all those guys.

They were terrible.
