2012-2013 NFL General Discussion Thread.

I am hoping the Cowboys can at least do better than 8-8.  If we make the playoffs, great, but I just want a winning season, preferably one with 10 wins or more.

Since I am in Utah, I will be following the Broncos and 49ers a lot closer since they are the closest teams to me.  I will never stop being a Cowboys fan, just like I will never stop being an Oklahoma Sooners fan or Oklahoma City Thunder fan.  I will just 'follow' the local/regional teams.

From moving around a bit, I've noticed you tend to hate or "come to an understanding" with the local favorite team.  I've done the latter with the Huskers.  I'm not a fan, but I watch games from time to time, I'd rather they win than lose (unless they are playing one of my teams, but that's a short list in college football:Air Force and Illinois) and I know a bit more about the team than I should.  But I'm not a fan.  I'd never wear Husker gear....and I do wear a little sports gear (Steelers hat, Cardinals tshirt).

Patriots....losing at home....to an NFC West team that isn't the Niners....I don't say "lol" often but LOL!

Sanchez is great!

Well he's better than most Jets fans think he is, but I don't know about "great".

Jets can't move the ball unless the refs move it for them.

That was embarrassing. We need to beat the Dolphins before losing two straight.

To be fair to the Jets, that was a much more important game for the Steelers than it was for the Jets.  The Steelers had to win that game, the Jets just needed it.  Losing on the road to a good team isn't the end of the world.  Ya better win that game next week in Miami though 'cause your schedule ain't getting any easier after that.

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.

I heard one guy say that the clock should stop if the offense fails to advance the ball, I'm not sure about that.  My issue isn't with the victory formation itself, it's offenses crying about the defense still caring.

[dead0man]

We certainly seem to have a lot of Niners and Steelers fans.  Which makes me wonder.....
