haha dont ever say that again brad, there is a line. i did pick the packers to win against the jags.

Vikings sending 5 to the pro bowl, its two less than last year but the second most in the nfc. How did julius peppers make it ahead of john abraham and starting ahead of jared allen. He pilled most of his sacks against the lions ang just beat up on weak teams, did nothing when it counted. Just going by his reputation, which is pathetic because john abraham deserves it way more. I dont think eli manning deserved the pro-bowl, his form in the last month has make him look like a backup. He overthrows most of his deep balls and has no power on his throws. Matt Ryan deserved it more.

Dier, just admit you lost. You got beaten down badly by an over-hyped team. Just admit it. Dont whine and whnge how you got injuries. I thought derrick ward was amazing, so why do you care if jacobs plays or not. I didnt know you were the only team in the nfl with injuries. Isnt tashard choice the 3rd string running back, you know the one that ran all over you. If we lose to atlanta this week, im nt going to cry about how e.j henderson and pat williams were injured, ill say we lost fair and square. Stop crying like a baby.

You seem to act like you know alot about NFL.
What is the most important part of the offense?
The Oline
Anyone can run or pass behind a good Oline, so when 2 of them go down it leaves a gap and gives us no chance.

I was just stating that the beat on a injured Giants.
The way peach was carrying on you would of thought the beat a fullstrength side.

And eli lead his team to a 11-3 record he deserves to be there he had a rating of 92.1 before this week ( havent bothered lookin since)

Gondor
Here is a little known fact: Gondor used to partake in the NFL, however due to our exceptional ability in the sport, we were exiled from playing it any longer, after winning 78 successive titles. Gondor is no longer recongised in the history of the NFL, thus the NFL says it was founded in 1920 and the first game was in 1869, but the first game was actually between Lothlorien and Gondor in the second age of middle earth. Gondor was victorious 27-10. Gondor entered the NFL in 1840, before all the other teams, but it wasn't 'till 1842 that we won their first title against Rohan 45-21. We then went on to our unprecidented 78 streak titles. After that in 1920, the NFL decided that Gondor was too good at the sport, and changed it from Football to American Football, to deny Gondor's application to enter the NFL.

cowboys vs ravens will be an awsome game to watch. Dallas star studded offence vs baltimores 2nd best d in the nfl. Ed Reed is a beast. Giants vs panthers will also be a great game. If brandon jacobs plays, i think giants will win cause carolinas defence is not built to face power running. Without jacobs, eli will be forced to pass too much and end up throwing those giant lobs that end up 10 metres from the nearest receiver.

Who do you guys think will win the mvp?

skins are my 2nd favourite team. so its great to see both my teams have sh.t years.

mvp will be very a very tough decision this season as nobody has stood out as much as guys like tomlinson and brady in recent years. i'd say up there would be adrian peterson, kurt warner, drew brees, eli manning and kerry collins. good luck to the people that have to select it.

and you could add peyton manning to that list now.

did anyone see ravens vs cowboys today? quite funny towards the end. every time dallas got close the ravens scored on the 1st play of each drive with 70 and 80 yard runs by mcclain ans mcgahee

Giants clinch number 1 seed.
D.Ward 215 yds off 15 attempts WHAT A LEGEND!!!!
every time he touched the ball he broke a play single handly won us the game.

Next week we got the vikings ( i expect we will rest our players) but we need to ruin their playoff hopes!

Even without pat, ward wont run like that on the purple people eaters. We fumbled 7 times against the falcons and still came very close to winning. Falcons know they escaped. T-jack outplayed matt ryan and continues to show tremedous growth as a qb. AD had one of his worst games as a pro, he looked pathetic out there. Despite the loss, there were enough positives in there to give me confidence that we can beat anybody. Im still shocked that we lost considering that we had 350 total net yards to atlanta's 222 and controlled the ball for 32 minutes. However 7 fumbles and forcing a fumble that was recovered by atlanta in the endzone for a touchdown is pathetic. We gave the game to a very mediocre atlanta team this is making the playoffs. its a bit sad that they are in the playoffs really. however congrats to atlanta for taking advantage of our mistakes.

T-Jack has a better quaterback rating than eli manning!

Also we clinch the division if the pack beat the bears on mnf so we are still favourites to win the nfc north.

Hey parko, if the vikings played 9 teams with losing records we would be better than 10-5. By the way we have played 5 teams with losing records. Your schedule is a joke. roger goddell felt sorry for you because you were so horrible last year he gave you the easiest schedule in the nfl.

Miami continue to win the games the should, and do you no why that is cause they dont turnover the ball (well not much) 12 in total this year ( the record is 14 by the 90 giants)

You couldn't expect to win with that many turn overs and fumbles...
How many has AP got for the year now? 8-9, I heard them talkin about his fumbles on sportscenter last week saying the coach and AP's dad gave him a spraying about it. He has the talent thats for sure but Fumbles can really come back to haunt you....(no i wasnt callin him bad so please dont start the AP and taylor are better then Jacobs Ward arguement again :p haha)

Ward has a chance to make 1000 yards on the year ( 67 yds needed against your vikes) and that would give us 2 1000 yards rushers on the year truly a great accomplishment even you have to admit that. I dont expect him to run like that on the Vikes but I sure hope he can get his 1000.


I really Believe we will rest our star players against use anyways it would be a nothing win against use just boost our record.

And yes T-jack does have a better passer rating than manning, But he has only played 8 games (and started in 4) this year. Eli manning has started all of them ( 70th consecutive game today a giants record for a QB).
I'm not at all taking away from how much he has shined in the QB role since returning and good on the guy he took a real beating from the fans its always good to see a guy show his full potential.

Derrick ward might get 100 yards and that would be awsome to have two of them go over. But if the second best rb in the nfl cant run on us without pat, i wouldnt be surprised if derrick ward struggles. thats not saying hes a bad rb, because no-one can run on us.

Even if the giants do play their starters, i think we can beat them. If it wasnt for the fumbles we would have won by 20. we stopped turner and roddy white has his least productive game of the season. it will be a good game.

I believe we will rest these players:

Aaron Ross, C-web, Fred Robbins and Justin Tuck from our D.

Hixon, Kareem Mckenzie and Jacobs from our O.

Don't know about Manning though, I'm guessing they will start him and if we get a good lead or he struggles they will put Carr in.

And the second best RB in the league doesnt have our O-line, they played outstanding against Carolina.

I cant wait for the vikes-giants game. It gives us a chance to earn a playoff spot by beating the best team in the nfc.

Yeh the giants have a great o-line, but turner hasnt looked that ordinary since week 2. Imagine if pat was there.

peterson needs a huge game for vikes to win.

I like eli, and always supported him when other attacked him. I just think its great that t-jack is playing up to his potential and proving chilly right that he is a diamond in the rough. Where is matt leinart and vince young?

I believe you will beat us by 10.

Just for this sole reason...Use are playing for something, we are playing for nothing but another W next to our name.

And I agree with the comment in the bold, I think i already said that to lazy to look back :p haha

FMD the packs know how to lose a game dont they. clearly missing brett at the end of games. a-rodge has really got to improve there but not as much as the D#.
