That's the knock on Vick. He's not consistent in the pocket and it's run first for him. I remember Kordell Stewart for the Steelers and how everyone thought he was the one that would bring a Superbowl but he didn't. Stewart had a similar game to Vick with Vick being a lot more talented but I can't help but see the same future for him unless he becomes consistent in the pocket.Quote:

They seemed to copy the eagles defensive game plan from the 2004 champioship game...contain Ron Mexico (the most overrated player in the history of sports) in the pocket with your d-ends, and make him throw to beat you.
New Orleans just really came to win last night. Blocked kicks don't just accidentally happen in the NFL like they do in High School or rarely in College, you have to have called an all out block to get it done, and they blocked two. Then they ran the double reverse to get that first TD. They gambled a LOT in that game, and it pretty much always paid off. It was just their night. With their gameplan, I think they could just have easily lost by just as many points.
never heard of him. Lelie is no aid to the falcons whatsoever and he will suck until he dies :D and I love it.Quote:

It looks like the best way to beat Vick is to frustrate him and get him upset. He feeds on good plays. I don't think they will do all that well this season.Quote:

I think running and D will be better down the stretch then pass happy. But how do you stop the colts?
I think the Falcons will play well enough to get in the playoffs. The Bengals look like a great team, the Jaguars were picked as a potential team in the Superbowl by ESPN but they haven't been carrying their weight as for the Colts they always seem to choke in important games.
The biggest problem the Jags face is that they don't really ever make huge plays on offense. Once they start getting a few big plays per game, they will be ridiculously good.Quote:

Ravens, well, not sure. NO is looking like one of the top teams right now though. San Diego is a good all-around team as well.

Disagree on the broncos, Plummer is a headcase, they will make the playoffs and loss because of it.Quote:

I've been saying for a while that he seems like someone with serious mental problems. His actions just haven't been normal; holding out on his contract one day, literally crying on camera the next day about just wanting to play football, then the next day he has a bunch of reporters over to his house to interview him while he does situps in his driveway with his shirt off. I obviously don't know him personally, but I've been thinking the guy is bipolar for a while now.
I think it's a fitting name. Now the Cards can be like, "I got schooled at University of Phoenix!" ;)
The stadium is in glendale though, not phoenix, which makes the name that much more rediculous.Quote:

that she would sue him over that. i guess it makes sense for her she will get a crapload of money... I mean that i cant believe that people will sue for anything.Quote:

It's definitely a valid reason to sue imo, the girl has this for life she may as well get something for it out of him. I bet you she would give up the money if it meant that she wouldn't have herpes anymore.Quote:

anyone see the girls gone wild guy joe francis on the tyra banks show (swear i was flipping channels) ? the guy owns mansions in 2 country's, has airplanes, chefs, the whole deal and all he does is hand some dumb chick a waiver form and a hat or t-shirt... when the chicks get told this they go "huh?".... trust me theres more chicks that would do herpes vick than you would think.
check the smokinggun for the TO report, the one that wasn't blacked out by the dallas PD.
