NYG taking the ball out of Eli's hands on first and goal. Four runs in 5 plays inside the 5 yard line.

thats smart imo

despite the new york medias best efforts, eli is nowhere near in the same class as his brother

Little brother had a terrible game.

That's karma baby! Golden Tate falls down twice in two games, this one causes an interception.

Still think you caught that hail mary pass buddy?

And how bad is this reflection on the Jaguars? http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-...r-manning-bowl

Weird game between SF-SEA. Kaepernick way less efficient than last week, but SEA's defense is tough. Looks like a baseball score at the 2:00 warning of 1st half: 5-0.

[Guiness]

funny that both team are complaining about protecting the QB in the read option, when he is afforded the protection due the QB but both teams have also tee'd off on the other's QB! Russel just got hit a bare half second after handing off the ball and the announcers spent the next minute explaining why he was not protected in that situation, and what he'd have to do to be protected.

edit: now Russel just got his head whipped around with the D drawing a facemask penalty

I read somewhere that Christian Ponder has already thrown 5 "pick 6" interceptions in 832 career pass attempts--while Aaron Rodgers has thrown just 1 in 2744 career pass attempts.

Was the 49er/seachicken game chippy? I heard the players were borderline dirty on both sides.

[Fritz]

Those teams deserve one another.

And the Lions blew an 8 point lead!!

Mostly jawing, not much in the way of cheap shots..

If you can run on that D's seven man front, no small feat, it really messes them up.

I fell asleep at halftime but was happy to see that Kaepernick had a pretty shitty game.

Seattle just ripped the hell out of SF's D in the second half. PB is right, if you can run on SFs front 7, they can't cope. Seattle kept doing it and SF wouldn't bring an extra guy in the box.

Russell Wilson is continuing to prove the doubters wrong. He is better outside the pocket than in it.

[MadScientist]

Besides running against SF's 7 man front, the other key to beating them is being able to play man without letting Kapernick go wild with the read option. The announcers were commenting about the press-man coverage Seattle was doing. GB is good at that, but too chicken about CK running wild again.
