Favre and his penchant for the costly pick. Yet, he was an OT away from another SB. I bet he comes back.......
His lone SB win will be easily forgotten while we will remember that his last pass as a Packer, Jet, and Viking was an interception.

The Saints had a game given to them last night. Although they did rough Favre up considerably! I just don't see that happening against the Colts. Although for a while, the Jets had the Colts reeling. So, ya know, anything is possible. I'm taken Indy. They are like the Spurs of the late 90's early 20...

*shudders as all of this fly's over P13's little head*

And, hey, poisonboy, if we go by your logic: aren't Brady and Roethlisberger automatically bigger stars, since they have more rings????

You have a serious comprehension issue.........

Yes, to the above thread. That was comedy gold. As a Browns fan for whatever reason this thread made me remember Andre Rison's famous "statue play." I can't even remember who we were playing. But it was before the word got out that the Browns were leaving, and remember in 1995, the Browns...

This concept goes way over P13's head. Being the "Best" doesn't mean the "biggest." He's far too young to remember the 80's. Dan Marino and Boomer Esiason had more endorsements/jersey sales than Joe Montano and Phil Simms... Peyton Manning has gotten more endorsements and made m...

I fucking hate the Jets, but Revis a beast. I don't think I remember a shut-down CB like him since Deion. The difference between Deion and Revis right now is, teams actually throw at Revis. I believe he was 3rd in the league in passes defended. When Deion was out there, QB's didn't even bother to l...

A few years from now people will look back on this and wonder how a shitty team such as the Jets managed to make it all the way to the AFCCG. They'll wonder how the Colts got so lucky to play such an under qualified team in such a big game. The Superbowl will be the real test for the Colts. The Sai...

I think that we did give off the original topic, but the point Jug and I have been trying to convey to P13 is this: Peyton Manning is NOT the biggest superstar in the game. Great QB yes? Hall of Famer? No doubt. Superstar? Yes. Biggest star in the game? Not even close. Has nothing to do with his on ...

Manning is the biggest superstar. Favre is still a big star, but no longer is he the Superstar that Manning is. No, he's not. Maybe to Colts fans and people the Indiana region. True. Sorry P13. Manning isn't a marketable cat. Favre, Romo, and even Vick sell more jerseys than Manning. Outside of IN,...

I can't really say this is a great hire, but it's not like the Bills had their choice of many top candidates. This wasn't exactly a highly sought after position. Having said that, they did supposedly have the opportunity to hire Leslie Frazier, which to me would've been a smarter move. They probabl...

Who else thinks its all a fix: the NFL wants Favre in the SB this year, and next year Jerry Jones and the Cowboys will magically "host" the SB in the shrine that Jones built large enough to house his own ego???? If it all comes true, it'll make you wonder, won't it :wink: Of course it's f...

The Rooney Rule

Everyone they interviewed said "NO!" We'll never know how many people said "NO!"
LOL.
Organizations like this one and Oakland remind my fellow Browns backers that it could always be worse

I got slaughtered this weekend, so don't take my advice! LOL I'm going with the Vikes over the Saints. If for no other reason than I think for whatever reason Favre is such a roll, combined w/ the perpetual bad luck of the Saint, and playing in the Superdome won't phase Favre at all. I say Vikes. Co...

Is this a set up so they fall so far from the top they'd be able to be taken over by the Canadian dollar? And I don't want a team moving here to L.A., but now the Bills have moved to number 1 on the list of potential teams moving here I for sure don't want to see. True. They are now number one on t...

I agree about the Packers/Cardinals game, it was the only really good game so far. That one was fun to watch. The other games all sucked. I like a high scoring game as much as the next guy, but that was ridiculous. That was the worst defensive performance I've ever seen, from BOTH teams. While it w...

This is the toughest week to call traditionally, also usually the best matchups traditionally. That said. Saints. Ravens. Chargers. Cowboys. The opposite of any those would not surprise me in the least, and this is one week I almost NEVER bet on NFL. The divisional round is usually the best round IM...

You haven't seen "fair weather" fans until you travel to ghetto referred to as "Cincinnati." Worst city in the country. Worst fans in the country. No coincidence their teams are usually among the worst.

P13 gets a pass for being from Indiana, but I, like many of you, never understood cheering for out of area teams. The whole idea in the beginning was that that "team" represented your city/area. Of course with free agency, television, the internet, etc., I guess that drained some of that. ...

Not only will the Colts dominate the Ravens, but we will send the Ravens players and coaches back to baltimore on a bunch of mayflower trucks! Talk about deja vu! http://indianapolis-indiana.funcityfinder.com/files/2009/11/colts-moving.jpg It's Cleveland that should hate (and does hate) Baltimore. ...

It's the playoffs....ANYthing can happen. I'm pulling for the Vikes. I don't care either way, I just want a good, entertaining game to watch. But you sir are correct, ANYTHING can happen. That's why I was telling P13 not to start thumping his chest about the Colts. In the playoffs you, even as a fa...

Favre knows the system better than Childress. The audible thing has been blown way out of proportion. It's still being used by people who don't know very much to try to make a point that the Vikings are going to lose. You're wrong. Favre and the Vikings will go all the way. Favre knows Childress' s...

"We're only going to score 17 points?" Brady said before chuckling about it. "OK. Is Plax playing defense? I wish he had said 45-42 and gave us a little credit for scoring more points." This. It's one thing to be confident. It's another to be out and out arrogant. I prefer athle...

Of course the Vikes have a chance. However, they have to commit commit commit to the run. They LAST thing they need is to abandon the run when they aren't getting much. The Vikes tackles vs Dallas' pass rush = a win for Dallas. The Vikes' best plan is to run run run and, when passing, use quick hit...

Despite all of his success, I think only Ryan Leaf and Michael Vick are less liked than Brady. Outside of Boston/New Haven, I don't know a single Tom Brady fan. He's just one of those smug cats that everyone loves to watch lose.

I'm riding the fence on this one.
Like Jake said: Wade Phillips and Tony Romo in the playoffs.
But, this whole "marriage" of of Childress and Favre seems to be heading to divorce court. This game could go either way.

Not that the NFL and NBA are flawless (both a FAR, FAR from it), people here in my little villa always know I like 'em both. So, they assume I must watch all sports. Assuming such, they always want to ask me about MLB. Well, between the strike that costs the World Series and then all the juicers.......

While I agree the Jets beat a bunch of bums Saturday night, I think it would be unwise to completely underestimate a team with nothing to lose.
