Yeah, I knew Derek Carr was for real from the get go, but we're doing way better than I thought we'd do this year. A lot of season left to go. I think we'll win our division. We win Sunday, it's our first winning season since 2002.

Hope the Cowgirls lose. I'm excited for tonight's Steelers game. I hope I get to watch it. Cooking a feast and watching football really doesn't mix too well tongue

Happy game watching today!

Oakland's QB could not throw, should have got him out of there real early, they can't win with him avg 3,0 a completion,

The cold definitely affected Carr's finger. I've never seen him that bad. The worst part is our defense shuts down the Chiefs in the second half, and our offense still can't capitalize. Glad we have the 10 day break before our next game. Carr gets healthy we have a good chance of winning the rest of our games.

Did ya'll see Antonio Brown's Immaculate Extension in the 4th quarter of the Steelers game with the Ravens? He was stopped on the one yard line, but extended the football over the goal line for the winning touchdown. So cool.

Oli,

That's a great line , the "immaculate extension".


Is there a personal beef between Terry Bradshaw and Coach Tomlin?





Oh...Rex Ryan fired today 12/27/16

no way he gets the axe, he and schneider are very close and besides, who is seattle going to get who even comes close to drafting and building a winner with late round picks? there is nobody even close.

im not a rex ryan fan, but he's a great defensive coordinator. but from a head coach perspective, one needs at least 4 years at the helm with his own players and draft picks. these owners, especially the pegula's who are new to the nfl have a skewed vision on how to build a winner. shit, even belichick failed in a few places without the proper resources. when he took over for parcells, parcells had many of the pieces in place and all of them fit belichick's philosophy. and then they got lucky with TB. it makes me sick that TB12 is playing this well at 39/40. he's got to be on something

No, not the dumbest call. That accolade goes to the 1978 Giants. Leading the Eagles 17-12 with under 30 seconds left on 3rd down, the Giants ran a hand-off, fumbled it, the Eagles recovered and ran in for a touchdown and won the game.

Packers/Cowboys was one of the best playoff games I've ever watched. They showed Tony Dorsett briefly and that guy NEVER ages.

Conference Championship weekend is gonna be great.

Wasn't TD sitting next to Emmitt? If Zeke Elliott can stay out of trouble, Dallas could have 3 of the greatest NFL RBs in history.

I have never seen a QB throw on the run with such precision as Aaron Rodgers. His throws are a thing of beauty.

During the game, I was texting a friend who is a huge Cowboys fan. When Dallas tied up the game with :35 left, I wrote to him that two timeouts and that much time was not going to be good for the Cowboys.

I know ATL has had the better season, but until they actually advance I will be pessimistic about them. Too many times in the Matt Ryan era they have folded in the postseason. They remind me a lot of the 1998 Vikings.

I think that a GB - NE Super Bowl would be epic. Two franchises seeking their five Super Bowl win and pitting two of the game's premier QBs against one another.

Goombah,

Glad to see you back on the forum. Interesting comparison to the 98 Vikings(who lost to the Dirty Bird Falcons). I liked Matty Ice, and I think this is the year the team puts it all together and goes back to the SB. But until they do, they deserve doubters.
I also think that Matt should get MVP if Aaron doesn't get it.

Every 2 years or so, Rodgers does to the Giants what he did to the Cowboys on Sunday.....get ball back with less than minute and down...and drive team down for winning score...I saw it coming...


They showed a brief clip of TD and Emitt together and Smith looks older than TD, by a lot.....he might want to start using the "Just for Men" hair coloring product that he endorses

Yeah Emmitt looks more like Earl Campbell. He should shave and it would take off 15 years.

Ok so let's say you're right about Atlanta. Do you see them beating either AFC team? I guess I could see Atlanta beating Pitt but not NE. These are the best conf championship games in awhile.

I beg to differ.

Fran Tarketon during his Vikings days may have originated the art of scrambling/passing. During the 70s, Roger Staubach was known as Rodger the Dodger who was excellent at throwing on the run. However, since his 2004 rookie year, Big Ben is the premier NFL quarterback for extending the play. No conversation about him is complete without referencing his ability to escape defensive lineman, extend the play and throw successfully downfield. Just about every conversation about Ben on ESPN or NFL Network is about his extending the play and it's been such for over a decade. Of course, the epitome of it was his throw to Santonio Holmes that won the game in SB43.

Oli,

My only reference to Tarkenton was that I remember him as one of the hosts of "That's Incredible" smile

No, I've seen his footage.....they coined the terms "scrambling" and mobile qb for him. He was decades ahead of his time. I've seen less of Capt. America(RS) and his scrambles but I've read the same thing about him.

Aaron Rodgers is the final evolution of the position though in much the same way that Lebron is in basketball.NOTHING that AR can't do well as a QB.

Big Ben is a clutch performer and amazingly mobile/agile for his size. His toughness overshadows his actual throwing abilities though. He already has a spot in the HOF and he might get as many rings as Bradshaw before it's over.

boy ,are you right about aaron Rodgers, greatest QB ever throwing on the run, and I have seen many. although big ben evades tackles more than any QB in the NFL, i'll still take Rodgers.

My comment was not about who is more elusive. Sure the Steelers QB gets away and is hard to bring down because of his size. But he isn't even in the conversation with Rodgers when it comes to pinpoint accuracy while throwing on a dead run. If Rodgers had only broken loose to get the final throw off, some QBs can do that. But AR put the ball in the perfect spot to set up the GW field goal. Nobody else in the league does that.
