Fuck that was close from Bryant.
Great finish there. Very entertaining, if strange, game altogether.
The NFC East - Footballâs Premier Division.
Iâve had my first ever bet on the NFL, backed Denver Broncos over 30.5 pts (off a recommendation) in their game against New Orleans.
Yes. 
Saints defense have the worst stats in the history of the league. They are absolutely awful. Offense was kept quiet last night though, which is unusual. Broncos starting to look the real deal.
Dez Bryant is an absolute pussy. :guns:
I see the Pats have traded for Aqib Talib Tampa Bayâs talented but troubled CB. I like the move. Their secondary is a shambles and if they can get Talib to behave himself off the field he should help immensely.
cant be any worse than what they have. They had waived Sterling Moore earlier so a move for a CB wasnt that shocking I suppose. Iâm sure there will be behaviour specific requirements in his contract so hopefully itâll work out.
Good opening drive for the chargers there- Gates and Rivers for the opening TD.

There have been 8 overtime finishes in the NFL through week 7, but perhaps you still arenât clear on the new OT rule. Itâs called modified sudden death and there are several things you need to know. Letâs break it down:[list=1]
[]Each team gets one opportunity to possess the ball
[]After both teams have possessed the ball once, the first team to score wins
[]If the first team to possess the ball scores a touchdown on the opening possession the the game is over and the second team loses its opportunity to possess the ball
[]Each team gets 3 time-outs
[]There are no challenge flags in OT, all reviews are initiated by the officials
[/list]
Letâs discuss a few odd-ball scenarios whereby the kicking team on the opening drive would lose its âopportunity to possess the ballâ without ever getting the chance to send its offense on the field:[list=1]
[]If the kicking team recovers the ball on the opening kickoff and scores a field goal on that drive, the game is over. The receiving team is considered to have had their opportunity to possess the ball.
[]Following a field goal on the opening possession in OT, if the kickoff is recovered by the kicking team, the game is over. The receiving team is considered to have had their opportunity to possess the ball.
[]Three and out on the opening possession but the receiving team bobbles it and the kicking team recovers the punt. The receiving team is considered to have had their opportunity to possess the ball and the game is now in sudden death.
[]Three and out on the opening possession and the receiving team blocks the punt. The ball advances past the line of scrimmage where the receiving team bobbles it. The kicking team then recovers for a new set of downs and the game is now in sudden death. The receiving team is considered to have had their opportunity to possess the ball. Had the bobble occurred behind the line of scrimmage, this would not be the case.
[]The defense recovers a fumble on the opening drive but then fumbles the recovery. If the offense recovers the ball the game is considered in sudden death. The defense is considered to have had their opportunity to possess the ball.
[]If the defense causes a safety on the opening possession the game is over and the defense has won.
[]The kicking team recovers their own blocked field goal attempt on the opening drive after the defense bobbled the ball past the line of scrimmage. The kicking team is awarded a new set of downs and the game is now in sudden death.

An onside kick to start overtime would be awesome!
Do you trust your defense if it goes wrong?
it might work just for the sheer stones you d need to call itâŚ
but the field position youd give up⌠the opposition would be what 45 yards from the end zone? they could nearly go straight for a FG
Bears defence are murdering the Titans here. A blocked punt for a TD, an interception for a TD and now another forced fumble on CJ to get the ball back again on Titans first play.
Von Miller
Third sack today. An absolute beast.
Tuck reckons the Giants are getting some âHurricane Sandy callsâ in their favour to give some good feelings to the people of New York. :o :lol:
Kev Cadle was having none of it. :lol:
Kev is a mongo of epic proportions.
That was a shocking fake fg attempt from steelers
Eagles beaten by Saints 28-13. That Eagles O line gave Vick nothing. he was being battered all game, they just waltzed through and he was hurried so often. A deflected pass was intercepted and returned for a 99 yard TD. Run game on both sides dominated the opening quarter, and Brees got into a nice groove after that.
Highlight of the game though was a kickoff return from the Eagles special teams unit that was unfortuantely called back for a penalty flag for an illegal forward throw. Well worth looking up. Riley Cooper hid in the end zone, seriously!
he lay down in the Saints logo, and when the kickoff was fielded, jumped up and caught a lateral pass and brought it all the way back for a TD. But the lateral was thrown forward, by about 4 yards, and the play was called back. Was class though, shame it didnt work out.
:lol: Thatâs brilliant.
