Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

Not sure about the second one but the first comment I get where he was trying to go with it, it didn't make sense in context of where the play occurred but I think he meant had it been ruled a catch outside of the endzone then the Eagles would have to use a challenge. So they were lucky the play ha...

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

I realize this is a bit off topic, but since Aikman was announcing the game it is somewhat related. Does anyone else think Aikman is having a problem understanding things lately? The biggest mistake I noticed last night was the Thielen td catch that was over turned. Aikman was saying since it was ca...

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

Great post. Agree on all points. The trenches got dominated last night but that still is no excuse for Keenum's pick 6. Not sure what you are implying here. Of course it was the excuse for the pick 6. The pass rusher didn't get blocked and that was the sole reason the pass was under thrown. Are you...

Were all those other games overtime games? I thought we were the only team to win a playoff game on the last play of regulation with a touchdown.

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

Zim has to go. I know this is tough because he’s a likeable guy and solid during the regular season but deep down everyone knows that I’m right Completely disagree. Find me a better coach out there right now than Mike Zimmer. Not gonna happen. I can understand if we went 4-12 but we won the NFC Nor...

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

But, that being said, I have to look at the fact that we made it to the NFCCG with a back-up QB and our number one RB out for most of the year. Can any other team come close to saying that? Has another team ever done that before? I only wish I knew who the QB was going to be next year. While Philly...

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

Our run game was weak, I think if Cook was playing, it would've been a different story. Our D especially Rhodes was hurt and the Eagles took advantage of it. Foles was a Pro Bowl QB with the eagles so IDK why people are surprised that he played decent. Teddy was a pro bowl QB for us, and I dont rea...

Re: Week 14 Reaction Thread

Again, Michael Thomas was NOT a first round pick. I don't see why that makes a difference, in fact, I think it hurts your argument rather than helping it. Why exclude better performing receivers just because they aren't a 1st round pick? I think it is fair to include any picks lower, you just shoul...

Re: Week 14 Reaction Thread

I UNDERSTAND everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I GET it. But please back your opinion up with something. I mean someone said earlier "Treadwell is slow and cant run routes". I've heard crickets since I addressed it. A comment like that is just out of frustration, it has no validi...

Re: Week 14 Vikings-Panthers Game Thread

That's a personal observation and you having no clue if Diggs is actually 100% or not. Didnt he juke out about 3 guys on a long first down vs. Carolina? Like severely juke them out? Probably cant do that on an "80%" groin is my guess. Obviously that is a personal opinion, just like everyo...

Re: Week 14 Vikings-Panthers Game Thread

What is a bust? A bust is a highly drafted player or signing that starts many games, is given plenty of opportunity and plays very poorly. Well below what they are worth. (Source: PHP's Dictionary of stupid NFL terms :P ) I'm not sure I agree that a player has to have started many games and given p...

Re: Week 14 Vikings-Panthers Game Thread

I'll throw out one more observation. While Diggs has done ok after coming back from injury, he doesn't appear to be 100%, maybe around 80% or so. He just doesn't have the explosiveness he did before his injury so he hisn't getting as much separation. So if Diggs at 80% is still better than Treadwell...

Re: Week 14 Vikings-Panthers Game Thread

Ok but that is what I’m saying, do you realize how ridiculously well Treadwell would need to perform in order to pass Diggs or AT??? He’d literally have to play out of his mind. But how is he suppose to do that getting somewhere around the 4th most targets each week??? It’s not realistic when those...

Re: Week 14 Reaction Thread

I, for one, love PHP's enthusiasm. He knows his #### too....subjective in response, but I see it objective in nature. Refreshing, really. There is a fine line between enthusiasm and being repetitive. Plus he isn't very diplomatic when he disagrees with someone. Sorry, but he comes off like his opin...

Re: Week 14 Reaction Thread

You just proved my point, if that's not going overboard you don't understand the word. You have made your point numerous times but you keep repeating it and keep telling us that we don't know what a bust is. It's just a personal opinion and your opinion isn't any more valid than anyone else's, so p...
