By the way....

Though I have been sporting the KC Chiefs Chubby all season long, I'm calling the Packers upset right now.

The Germanator · 10-11-2003, 05:01 PM

I'm not sure it'd be an upset. I think Vegas has the Pack -2.

Stonecutter · 10-11-2003, 08:01 PM

Right, which means that the Chiefs are the favorite by 1.

Home team autmaticly gets 3 points on every line.

Alll I know is that the Cowboys and Eagles are playing for 1st place in the NFC East tomorrow. Man, its been a long time since an Eagels/Cowboys game meant something. I'm loving it and can't wait for the game tomorrow.

Then I still wouldn't call anything by 1 point much of an upset... I suppose you can in all technicallity call it that, but it could go either way from the start

I don't even know what I'm talking about....whatever, I'm taking the Pack too

And yes, go Eagles! Quincy gonna be messsed up.

Sorry to double post, but the Eagles sucking deserves it. I like the onsides kick 3 years ago Andy, but not again....Donovan, you're supposed to throw it to the guys, ya know, so they can catch it. A mediocre Cowboys team is 4-1 and leads the East by 2 games, ridiculous.

So, who is in favor of changing the overtime rules?

Professor S · 10-12-2003, 05:33 PM

LOL!!!

I feel so bad for Ahman Green. He had such a great game until that fumble.

To what new format? Both teams got their chances in the Pack/KC game...the Pack fumbled their chance away.

I am!

But not because of that game.

Pack lose, and they deserved to. I didn't see much of the game, but they lead 14-0 and 31-14 (I think) you blow those leads twice and you deserve everything you get.

I didn't want to bet against Favre in GB, which is why I called the upset. What I forget was that the pack just isn't very good this year.

Absolutely not.
Football is a team game and if you have any weak spots on your team, and another team can take advantage of it, then you deserve to lose. The college system is horrible because you leave out the impact that special teams has on a game. If your defense can't stop anyone, especially when they know they must stop you now, you deserve to lose.

NFL overtime rule does suck. both teams should get the ball

So that it could be like that crappy college system?
It's a team game, and every part of your team has to be responsible and do their part to win. If you know you have to stop a team right now to win, then you do it.
So many seem to forget that teams with the best offenses don't win championships that often.

Bond · 10-18-2003, 11:54 AM

I was joking about actually changing the rules of overtime...
