    How was roughing the passer not called on that play?

    An outright blatant hold on Peppers that last Jacobs carry.

    Disagree. I think it's 90% run blocking that is responsible for his lack of success. When's the last time Forte has turned nothing into something? Bradshaw's done it a few times tonight. First of all I think you are selling Bradshaw's abilities short. But half of Forte's runs he gets the ball and is immediately being hit by multiple defenders. He doesn't have time to make anything happen. But he also goes down if someone so much as breathes on him.

    True but, several times he was holding on to the ball far too long perhaps, it was due to the concussion but, way too long.

    I'm assuming you mean Tommie. I'd consider it. Tommie is just never going to be the elite player he was supposed to be, but it's possible his supposed potential combined with his character issues would convince the Skins that they can maximize Tommie's potential. He was well on his way prior the injury, as I understood it, his type of injury was, effectively, career ending. That is, there's little to no chance he's going to be the player he once was.

    The MSU TE did drop the ball the end zone so, did he complete the process of the catch? Or is just some f'up NFL rule?

    I don't get it, when you need 8 yards, why in the world would throw the ball 6 yards? That was a staple of Turner offense - throw the ball short of marker.

    Another 3rd and long converted, looking not too different from last season.
  9. gflore34
    Thus far Cutler has been sacked 3 times and how many was it vs SD? 2 or 3? Preseason or not that's a problem.
  10. gflore34
    The usual converted on several 2nd and 3rd and longs, no pass rush to speak of.

    I'm shocked anyone swings at Marmol pitches, I'd really like to see how may he'd walk in should a team never swing the bat.
  12. gflore34
    He's smart enough to know Marmol can't throw 3 strikes before he throws 4 balls.

    Even with Lee and Ramirez sucking to high heaven where would the Cubs be with an average bullpen? League bp average ERA is 4.04 Cubs are at 5.08.
  14. gflore34
    Why I don't get about the Bears is their arrogance, they're above reproach, how dare anyone question them? Besides sucking the last few seasons what have they done to warrant such arrogance? I know it was only the first preseason game but, we saw some of the same old crap - dumb penalties, can't stop anyone on second and long, no running game, missed tackles - I believe the media had every right to question Lovie. Yet he gives off this how dare you question us and anything we do attitude.

    A couple of national/Canadian writers have pretty much been saying the same things that these Wings bloggers did. Ok, so whats your honest opinion then? I'm not a mod but personally I'll give you immunity from being called a troll. Are we in denial, or are the 'experts' overlooking what remains on the Hawks? The Hawks are a hard team to measure. I think they could come in anywhere between 90-115 points. I think the Wings are probably a more safe pick to win the division because they have made a couple of small additions that will help and havent not lost anyone of note. I think the Wings will win the division because I am a homer and have a nickel riding on it. I'd say Ladd, Buff and Versteeg were the biggest losses, were they of note? Perhaps, but was it becuase they happened to play well when every one was watching? Versteeg and Buff weren't all that big a factor during the regular season, I believe they're replacable. The biggest loss was Ladd, it'll be felt but, last I checked. Beyond the core players Sharp, Bolland, Brouwer and Hendry didn't fall off the face of the earth, I don't get why the Hawks are going to dive so much in the WC.

    Little late in posting nevertheless, good bye and luck D. Lee - most especially to your daughter. However, I'll not be saddened by your departure, when you consider you're largely responsible for this current mess of a season. And you're going from the outhouse to the penthouse, it's hard to shed a tear.
  17. gflore34
    Gee thanks, I'll sleep better tonight.

    Far be it to me to have the audacity to suggestion the Padre offense isn't very good. I retract all statements, the PADRES ARE THE BEST TEAM EVER, please forgive me.
  19. gflore34
    You got that RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEGIT PITCHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. gflore34
    I don't suspect it's all smoke and mirrors - pitching and defense have played a large part in .605 record but, in the playoffs. They're going to be facing legit major league pitchers, not Casey Coleman and Thomas Diamond, legit pitchers who are going to shut them down.
  21. gflore34
    Really? I don't deny their playing well at the moment but, did see their lineup today? Will Venable, Jerry Hariston, Nick Hundley, Tony Gywnn Jr., Everth Cabrera all, save for Hariston' robust .254, hitting .237 or less...
  22. gflore34
    This against the pure [expletive] (beyond Gonzalez) that is the Padre lineup that's pathetic. Even the Cubs who are now arguable the worst team in baseball have 27 more HR's and only 6 less runs than the Padres - they're going to get the crap kicked out of them in the playoffs.
  23. gflore34
    It has been, its too bad him and Ramirez crapped the bed for 4+ months for, if they'd been anything remotely resembling competent. The Cubs would be right there, they've managed to take 5 of the last 7 from one of then NL' supposed best teams in the Cardinals. As terrible as they've been yet, it could have been so much better.
  24. gflore34
    In looking at sully' Hawks' roster I don't know how they're not the best team in the WC this season. If Turco is solid, and I suspect he will be, the Hawks will considered favorites for the cup again, Rosenberg et al clamoring about the loss of Niemi just don't know anything about hockey.
  25. gflore34
    And Santo is getting pissed at Lilly for giving up a HR. I'm not upset at the HR but, what pisses me off is a not very good player - Feliz - hit it.
