"4th and long, and the viewers have chosen 'Strap the Ball to a Rabid Bear'" — NFL WEEK 16

really, fitzpatrick?

can you ask em to put it on? everytime I go to one of those bars they will change a channel on request in those types of situations, especialy if one gamei s on multiple tvs
--Bitch, it cold outside!!! BURR (San Te)

Idk, these don't seem like ravens fans I want to mess with- there is one dude with a Brady jersey directly in front like oh well, watchin afc north whatever

don't kick it to devin hester

jim belushi spotting!

jetsbears game is legitimately great

yea this is a winter classic.

WHOA at that catch

69 points combined so far this game. only in the middle of the 3rd quarter

is it 1991? this reminds me of the December battles I used to see growing up

somehow the "don't kick it to devin hester" memo got lost under the piles of women's shoes brochures on rex's desk

i learnt last week that directional positioning is really hard

Henne and Miami's offense getting way back on track.

i'm rooting against bears (for seeding purposes) but jets are still like the evil empire

lol @ one pats fan in Brady jersey here sitting with one colts fan in Peyton jersey, both looking bored as hell by all these games

never throw it to Ed reed man!

gould missed fg!

bad time to break that streak, robbie gould

fuck's sake

Henne, I hate you so much right now.

haha what happened?

wait, let me guess, does it start with an "i" and and "n" and a "t"?

does it rhyme with hatcatception?

3rd and 11, Miami clinging to a 3 point lead, Henne threw a pick in his own territory, giving the Lions the ball at the 36. lead to a fg which tied the game.

wow. fans moan about the coaching staff's unwillingness to trust henne, but this is why.

yea he's just baffling at times. earlier in the year he looked far more sure of himself, but it seems since midseason he's been much much worse

3:10 left in the jets bears game, jets down 4

HE JUST THREW A PICK SIX

oh my FUCKING GOD

get him the fuck out of there.

10 point lead with 5 mins is now a 7 point deficit. jesus christ.

might as well let him play-out. we're out of the playoffs.

if qb is the question, chad henne is not the answer

lol

yea we're out of the playoffs might as well throw caution to the wind and let Ronnie Brown play QB

henne + henning are an awful combination -- the guy can't design or call good pass plays

i'm not watching this game tho

dammit redskins. Tie game. I'm sure REX GROSSMAN can run a 2 min offense to win right? UH

i hear donovan mcnabb is demanding a release from the redskins!

that's our future, unless we can lure tom brady or payton whatshisname in free agency.

xpost I generally don't believe in writing the book on QBs in their first 3-4 years, especially given how Brees had a very mediocre 4 seasons before what he became, but usually you have something to hang your hat on to tell you he'll eventually be great.

Henne had lots of that in 09, but this year he can go from leading a methodical drive to flinging the ball up in the air randomly

the thing is that the whole offense is terrible -- i still contend that henne is no worse or better than mark sanchez, sanchez is just in an offense that can often mask deficiencies with an effective running game and good play calling (again, often), while henne really has no help whatsoever in that regard

can we hatcat-link mark sanchez now?

w00t

like, for as bad as henne has been, sanchez still has more terrible games, and henne still has more good games i think, if you were to look at their stats

they're usually pretty good about being able to minimize the risk involved w/ sanchez throwing the ball tho, not so much tho w/ henne

and right on cue

BEARS

man, they're gonna be tough in the playoffs

somehow phil simms found a way to call that a "tremendous throw"

lol @ Sanchez

cmon jax, the focus is on you now. the dream is still alive.

the prob with henne is that i don't see any upside

so if jax wins today, jets don't go to the playoffs?
