2012-2013 NFL General Discussion Thread.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Talk about the NFL to your heart's content.

I hope the 49ers are going to be on TV this week; I can't wait to see them lose to Green Bay.

Wait, what?  Who do you support, Xahar?

The baseball Giants.......other than that he's not a hometown boy.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

I think the Steelers have an excellent chance of losing this week of all of them.....our pass defense seems suspect to me and Payton might carve us up like Thanksgiving turkey.

Harrison might not play and if he does he probably won't be a factor......Ryan Clark can't play in the Denver elevation and that messes Troy up.......could be a long night.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Yep, I'm actually thinking about changing my pick to the Broncos.  Peyton has always been real good in Primetime games too.

I just can't pick another team against my Steelers.....not possible

No, I am a 49ers fan, but sarcasm doesn't come off all that well in print.

Try a smiley, punk.

     Why do we have to play all the tough teams on the road? It seems like the Niners' greatest rival is the schedule makers.

Have you seen the Giants schedule?  Not just road but home......awful.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

     Alex Smith sets the team record for most consecutive regular season passing attempts without an interception, breaking Steve Young's record of 184. I think this might be the year that Alex gets some respect.

Outside of SF?

Prediction: Eagles last in division, Vick and Reid goners.

Warned for hardline trolling. truth telling 

Fixed

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

We need to make sure we don't get:



this weekend.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

you'll get dirty Sanchezzed long before you get Tebowed

My butt hurts at the thought of that.......ick.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

I'm in my chair screaming for Vick to succeed in his opening drive?  Oh good Lord, kill me

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Are the Iggles TRYING to lose this f[inks]ing game?

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Thank you Lord......it's over and Iggles win!

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Sanchez is great!

Please go away

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Where do we all stand on giants/bucs "victory" formation issue?  I say the Bucs were in the right here.  If you're a score or less from winning and there is still time on the clock, eff the team with the lead and go balls out trying to get a turnover.  The leading team doesn't get to decide when the game is over, the clock does.  Eli (who I like) and the rest of the Giants (who I enjoy watching beat the Patsies in the Super Bowl) are being giant pansies about this.

Agreed.  Last minute turnovers have decided many a game.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

The Cardinals' next five opponents are the Eagles, Dophins, Rams, Bills, and Vikings. The only road games are in St. Louis and Minneapolis. Arizona could easily start the season 7-0, which is insane.

Given that division,  they may never look back.

Let's not forget that they still need to play the best team in the league twice after that.

The Steelers play them twice?  Who knew?

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Guys, the replay officials who made the fyked up call last night are the regular replay officials.  Blame them for the final decision.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

The replacement refs do suck but has anyone noticed a bias toward the home teams on blown calls?  It's seems the visiting teams get the sh**t calls.

Well certainly, and it makes sense. If the replacement officials are feeling insecure and confused enough, 75,000 screaming fans and a long ride home can convince you of the "right" decision rather quickly. Even if not for fear, who doesn't want to get cheered instead of booed? I'm not saying it makes it right by any means, but it isn't really surprising.

Remind me I still hate you for losing in the black hole

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

The original refs are just as bad as the replacements. Already 3 horrible blown calls against the Packers a week after the three plus horrible calls last week. Should have just kept the replacement refs for a lot cheaper, the job quality is basically the same, it's just costing a lot more now.

Would you like some cheese with that whine? 

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Why is Shannon Sharpe on TV again?

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

This would be much less annoying if the Giants were actually a good team.

Gonna watch the second half?

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

I got to bed with the Broncos being zilched and wake up to this sh**t?  WTF
