    Not with 2 losses.

    Nah, they'd be in the title game with MSU and Duke wins. No way they get in over Mizzou or Auburn if they play each other in the SEC championship game. I would bet a hell of a lot of money that 1 loss Bama would make it over 2 loss Mizzou. I'd bet a slightly smaller amount they'd get in over 2 loss Auburn. The winner of the SEC championship game, if it is Mizzou/Auburn will only have 1 loss.

    I despise Michigan since I'm an Illinois fan, but I'm even more annoyed by them than usual simply because their QB wears #98. I hope both teams lose today.

    I think most teams would have had a rough year last year if they had lost their veteran QB and had crap for a backup, especially the way Mizzou runs their offense. They have been pretty lucky with injuries this year, even with Mauk having to fill in.

    Carson Palmer @ PHI or Andy Dalton @ SD

    It's so nice to watch a team have a clue as to what they want to do down the stretch and on the last possession and actually execute a play to score.

    So Chris Duncan is a giant meathead and I take most of what he has to say with a grain of salt, but he did play in the bigs, with the Cardinals no less, so he probably has some perspective on this that most of us wouldn't. His thought today was that if Peralta was going to Bosch to get some sort of illegal undetectable steroid/supplement, should we really think that this is hist first foray into PEDs? I tend to agree with him and I hope he either gets suspended again, or better yet, he stops taking them and hits .210 for the next 4 years.

    I generally agree with your point, but the play call is part of the decision part. Execution is what the players do with the play call, and that was atrocious as well.

    Well, personally, I'm not a big fan of trying to measure $/WAR linearly like that. It really doesn't seem to work for really good or really bad players, no matter what David Cameron says. But if someone offered me Mike Trout on a 1/$50m deal, I'd probably take it. This is my biggest problems with these discussions. I mean, the average value of 1 WAR may be $5MM or whatever on the FA market, but those first 2 WAR a guy provides are typically much easier to come by than numbers 3, 4, and 5. I'd think it would need to be looked at (in this hypothetical case) as something more like 2, 3, 5, 7, 8 million for WAR 1-5.

    Paea, Melton, and Briggs for being injured and forcing them to play 4th and 5th string guys a lot.
  12. mul21
    Well, there goes the season for sure.
  13. mul21
    Hyperbole makes it all better, then, I guess. Pretending trestman hadn't [expletive] the bed means they win right? That's an entirely different discussion.
  14. mul21
    Not so fast on that Cutler thing.
  15. mul21
    Hell of an effort by the o line down field there.
  16. mul21
    Losing 2 starters at DT will do that to a run defense. Its more than that though. LBs, DEs and safeties are bad. Yeah, but I really think the back end is getting exposed because of the inability to stop the run up front. Throw in the fact that you don't have either of your admittedly diminished pro bowl level guys in Tillman and Briggs right now and it turns into the disaster we're watching now.

    Yep on both. Get it to one score for sure. OR AT LEAST THROW IT TO ONE OF YOUR GIANT RECEIVERS. [expletive] MORON.
  19. mul21
    Yep, and it was the block that sprung him too.
  20. mul21
    I don't think he understands the concept of contain and setting the edge. It's brutal to watch him [expletive] up on every misdirection play.
  21. mul21
    It absolutely wasn't. These refs have no clue. That's the second obvious call they've blown. The PI in the end zone on Conte on the uncatchable pass was worse though.
  22. mul21
    My god, this is the worst officiated game I've ever watched. These refs have no control over this game whatsoever and don't know the [expletive] rules. Jesus.
  23. mul21
    He would've gotten killed.
  24. mul21
    so are we not going to discuss how that ball wasn't catchable on the interference penalty?
  25. mul21
    Where is the supposed $40MM from TV revenue that every club is getting being spent? Surely they can't have allotted that for renovations already. I think there's money to be spent and all the rumors of being broke are smoke screens for a behind the scenes pounce on a few key guys. Or maybe I'm deluding myself.
