NFL GDT: Week 11

[Gene Parmesan]

What a dumb penalty.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Cards win

 

[Bonzai12]

Your Cardinals MVP of the game

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Don't you dare score a TD Arizona.

Just kick the FG and give me my Cincinnati cover

Eagerly awaiting the Al Michaels comment about the spread.

 

[Cush]

Bengals gonna bungle

 

[Fossy21]

45 yard FG isn't exactly... unheard of. Might as well try to get a penalty out of them. At least if you, like Michaels and Collinsworth, think that calling signals is just a 5 as well

 

[Hank Chinaski]

What atrocious clock management that was by Cincy. WTF are they doing passing on third and two? Run the ball. Worst case scenario you get stuffed, and you can bleed the clock down to about 20 seconds and kick the field goal.

I couldn't care less about the result of this game, but I'd be fuming if I were a Bengals fan.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

That's such a Bengals way to lose.

Eagerly awaiting the Al Michaels comment about the spread.

I really shouldn't be that happy. Now a Bills cover but a loss in a low scoring game is all but guaranteed. I thought picking NE (who I really do think will win comfortably) was a nice counterweight against my fandom tomorrow, but now it easily could cost me monies.

Yup. It was mismanaged.

I went to bed before watching the Cards won the game, so I missed seeing how it all came out. If the Cards had to go to the final minutes to beat Cincy, they will have their hands full with Green Bay, Carolina and New England.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Cincy is a good team.

 

[What the Faulk]

The Cardinals are the number one team I want Carolina to avoid in the playoffs. Second is probably Minnesota. Luckily they will probably not face either before the conference finals.

Undefeated teams by weeek:

Week 7: Panthers, Patriots, Bengals, Broncos, Packers
Week 8: Panthers, Patriots, Bengals, Broncos
Week 9: Panthers, Patriots, Bengals
Week 10: Panthers, Patriots

Week 11: Panthers (?)

We're not losing to Rex and his dysfunctional bunch at home with 3OLs coming back. Well, we better not

 

[What the Faulk]

How many of those are Nate Solder

Are they coming back? That should be big. Gronk and Chandler can actually run routes instead of staying in to help block. Too bad Jamie Collins is still not up to speed, but Charles Clay has fallen out of existence lately so they might be fine. I think it'll be close, but Patriots pull away late.

I think every NFC team wants to avoid Arizona. They can play a bad half and then hang 27 on you in the 2nd.

Not having Collins does hurt. Hopefully he is back next week. The Broncos offense sucks, but the Patriots defense will spend a lot of time on the field as the Broncos defense should be able to slow Brady down.

For this week, I am not really worried. Sure, it won't be a total destruction, but I am pretty sure the Patriots will win this home game. Especially with Cannon back, that should stabilize the line and, as you said, free Gronk (and Chandler even though he has been meh so far) to do his thing.

Next week is the big game. If the Patriots win tonight and next week, they will be 2 games up on everybody with HOU, TEN, PHI, MIA and NYJ left on the schedule. Only NYJ could be a loss IMO. Shouldn't underestimate HOU though, they have been better lately. But, still, that would be two losses at most with the tie-breaker against Denver. At worse, we would get the second seed and that's if Cincy wins out.

I thought the three were just practicing with 1 or 2 having the potential of returning

Nothing confirmed yet. Could be three, could be zero. Hoping for at least 2 - Cannon being the most important, IMO.

that is a sad state of affairs

 

[Scandale du Jour]

that is a sad state of affairs

Our OL is a mess, an absolute mess. With no Lewis and no Edelman to help out TB getting rid of the ball quickly and Gronk having to block most often than not, it really has hurt the offense. Good thing we have TB12 and a pretty good D.

And I am high on crack, Vollmer is the most important.

Panthers @ Saints flex to 4:25pm

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

VD was awesome yesterday, by the way. Niners fans had me believing he was useless. Bout time the Broncos actually tried using him.

He's not useless. Just not what he once was.
